After many years of suffering with indigestion problems,which in turn brought on other symptoms such as constant tiredness,aching limbs and stress,i was recommended to Stephen Macallan. Following initial consultation and vega testing i was placed on a strict anti candida diet,which is nowhere near as drastic as it sounds, but within a few weeks i began to feel the benefits.After just a few months my stomach troubles ceased,my energy levels increased considerably and I was even finally able to stop taking anti depressant drugs which I had been on for years. On one of my visits to Stephen I even complained to him of a back muscle problem which had plagued me on and off for some years. I was given a brief treatment using the Kosmed system and lo and behold the pain disappeared.That was six weeks prior to me writing this testimonial and I have felt no back pain since. Quite simply, I havent felt this well in years.Thank you Stephen. Mick Moore July 2002 (56 Years)

I consulted Stephen MacAllan because of severe pain in both shoulders which aggravated a tremor in arms and hands over the last ten years. I approached him because of recommendation from a friend, although with little hops that accupuncture could really help my problem. Doctors I consulted described the pain as arthiritic and "nerves being nipped between the joints with constant wear and tear." They could only prescribe painkillers, which had in the past caused bleeding from the stomach resulting in anaemia. Naturally, I was reluctant to go down this road again, and turned to accupuncture as a last hope. From my first treatment I noticed improvement, and experienced such a feeling of wellbeing, I was quite jubilant. After 4 further treatments I found my hands much more stready, and can now hand round cups of tea without the embarrassment of spilling much of their refreshment into their saucers. The pain in my shoulders is now almost a memory. Margaret McDonald (July 2002)

Stephen helped enormously during the birth of our first baby and throughout the pregnancy and birth of our subsequent baby twins. My partner and I both found his help absolutely invaluable. We really appreciated his very wide ranging expertise and his reassuring and caring approach. The labour of our first child was very long, lasting nearly three days. We called upon Stephen several times whilst I was in labour at home and during the later stages of the labour at hospital. Stephen used acupuncture to help sustain me throughout the labour and to help with pain relief. The only other forms of pain relief I needed were provided by the birthing pool, massage, and gas and air. Having someone with fresh energy to help, particularly during the many hours spent in labour at home, was just great. Stephan was able to suggest herbal remedies to help the process along as well as show my partner how to give quite vigorous back massage to help with pain relief during contractions. During my twin pregnancy Stephen was able to help in a variety of ways, including checking whether I was deficient in any vitamins and minerals, helping to keep my energy levels up and helping to prepare my body for the labour ahead. We were very keen to have a natural delivery if at all possible, but were aware that the chances of this happening with a twin pregnancy were very much less than with the delivery of a single baby. We were aware that the likelihood of having a natural delivery was significantly increased if both babies were in the ‘head down’ position. Stephen administered a treatment (moxibustion) which has been found to have a high success rate of turning breech babies. We needed to repeat this a number of times during the latter weeks of my pregnancy because one of the babies was in the breech position, and then when it went into the head down position, it kept turning back into the breech position. We were very delighted (and relieved) that both babies were in the head down position when I finally went into labour a few days after my expected date. My labour this time was a fantastic experience. It took less than three hours and both babies were born within six minutes of each other. Stephen was once again willing to come out to assist in the middle of the night and helped with acupuncture. We both feel extraordinary lucky to have three delightful, healthy babies and feel that the contribution Stephen was able to make throughout pregnancy and labour was entirely positive. It provided strength and confidence as well as boosting our physical well being. A very heartfelt ‘thank you’ to him. Anne Burrows and John Evans.

Hi it's Sam, I'm writing to thank you for all the help you have given me. You helped me through one of the most difficult times of my life. In September I became very ill and was very lucky if I could make half a day in school a week. I went to the doctors and was told I had a post viral fatigue. My family and I wanted to know what to do about it, and was told that we were to let it go its own way as there was nothing we could do about it and it could take up to two years to get over it. So from being a very active 13-year old I became "a couch potato." Reading was too much I was exhausted but couldn't sleep and cried in pain at night. After going to you and started your program I was able to manage to do all mornings at school within 3 weeks. My life was coming back. No sport at school allowed me to do what I wanted to do in moderation at home. A little longer on this program I was in school full time. Now I am managing to do too much but recover in a day instead of a week. I am riding my horse lots and doing other sports. The program is being relaxed and I am still making progress. I nearly feel back to my normal self and now look forward to an action packed holiday after a terrible school year. Once again thank you for making me better after the doctors gave up on me. Everyone who know me have noticed the difference and I have, it's a good difference and I can get on with my life like a normal teenager. Samantha (Age 14)

A small hand-held device of Russian origin is being used at a clinic near my home in Nantwich, Cheshire and the results for myself are quite spectacular. I am 66 years of age and I imagined I would just have to continue living with the weak point of myself which friends, family and doctors called "bad nerves". I am now completely cleared of all and every sign of what I suffered throughout my life. I am now perfectly well in every way. After a course of treatment the results have given me a great sense of well being. I am living in a wonderful and continuous state of joy. The best way to give testimony to this is by relating here the responses of people known as friends for many years. Some of them I purposely never told I'd had Kosmed treatment to see if they noticed any changes, they all did. Below are a list of improvements I've experienced but also in all cases been seen and noted by my friends. My cousin said I was like a different person etc. and other people said I'd got a natural confidence, more mentally alert. My eyes moved more quickly in conversation, warmer personality, better eye contact at holding a gaze, improved sense of humour, my skin colour is better, I am more clear headed, not as concerned as to how others thought about me, accepting myself more, more contented. Extra improvements others had not noticed but I knew. My short term memory has improved, eczema has disappeared, circulation improved. Let's hope this optimism is borne out by a general recognition amongst the public and professionals of this extraordinary revolution in health care. Peter Langton

I am 33 years old. For the past 18 months I have suffered with the following symptoms; extreme fatigue, muscular and joint pain, headaches, bloated stomach, lack of concentration and poor memory. After several consultations with GP's and a consultant orthopaedic surgeon, which proved to be inconclusive, I decided to seek the advice of an alternative practitioner. Someone who had experienced the same symptoms as myself recommended Stephen Macallan to me. At the initial consultation with Stephen he was able, through a series of vega testing to diagnose that I was suffering from Candida a fungal infection which feeds on yeast and sugar. From the point of diagnosis I was placed on a strict anti candida diet i.e I had to eliminate from my diet all foods and drinks which contained sugar and yeast, diary products, white carbohydrates, fruit and medication (including the contraceptive pill). I was also given a prescription of oregano complex, an anti fungal remedy and bio-acidopholus to replace the healthy bacteria in my gut which has been destroyed by the candida and by previously prescribed antibiotics given to me by my G.P. Within two weeks of being on the diet the headaches and bloatedness began to subside. I then experienced what is termed as a 'die off reaction' which basically means that the candida is dying off. This process lasted approximately two weeks. During this period my body underwent a major elimination of toxins. I also had intense sugar cravings and was left feeling very low in mood. I received good support and encouragement from Stephen who was always available to advise. I persevered with the diet and the symptoms I had experienced continued to subside until they eventually disappeared. At the next consultation with Stephen he was able to tell me that the Candida levels had reduced considerably. I then started to introduce certain foods back in to my diet and I also had a repeat prescription of oregano complex and bio acidopholus. The benefits to date include increased energy levels, improved concentration and memory and weight loss of 1 ½ stones. My headaches and joint pain have subsided and the bloated stomach has disappeared. I realise that the diet is not forever and that I will be able to reintroduce certain banned foods eventually. Conclusion My whole experience and contact with Stephen Macallan has enabled me to assess my lifestyle and to recognise the importance of a healthy balanced diet. It has also given me a good insight into alternative medicine and the benefits associated with this field of medicine as opposed to orthodox medicine. My general health and well-being is 100% better than it was 18 months ago. Kay Orton (30th August 2000)

When I first went to Stephen, I had various allergies, indigestion and a stiff painful neck. He recommended a diet which greatly helped with both the indigestion and allergies - and it also stopped a very irritating cough which I had had for some months. Stephen used acupuncture to relieve the neck problem and though some stiffness remains the pain is gone. Altogether life is much more comfortable and I am very grateful to him. R. Greenway (30th May 2000)

I have been suffering from asthma and eczema for approximately ten years. I also suffer from hives, hay fever, irrational fears, stress, insomnia / narcolepsy and a severely suppressed immune system. Conventional treatments (anti-histamines, steroids, inhalers, creams etc.) have had, if any, adverse effects. The majority of doctors I have seen have attempted to treat the symptoms, but made no reference to the root causes. In April of this year I had a severe asthma attack and died of a respiratory arrest, brought on by a combination of pneumonia and hypothermia. Six months later and I am recovering slowly. Steve has been invaluable in stabilising my condition, his acupuncture and herbal treatments in combination with a healthier diet (recommended by Steve), have kept my symptoms to a minimum – with no unpleasant side effects. Perhaps most importantly, Steve has been able to identify the causes of my condition. Now that I have eliminated the root causes from my life, my body has begun to heal naturally. I look forward to being healthy again. Stephen Ward (1st November 2000)

I have suffered deteriorating health over the last 5 years. Traditional medicine has successfully given me many labels for my symptoms (Endometriosis, Coeliac disease, IBS etc.) but as yet no amount of surgery or medicine as alleviated my symptoms. I discovered Stephen by accident! My initial consultation was very comprehensive. Stephen listened to every symptom I could list, and then asked more besides. The freedom to explain fully at every consultation is in itself cathartic. The vega-testing (which incidentally is painless) that Stephen practices, gave me a detailed picture of the causes of my condition. It is the most accurate diagnosis I have ever had. I felt sure of this, as he confirmed many allergies which I knew I had, but hadn't listed. I felt relieved and elated at the same time, to have finally found someone who totally accepted my symptoms, and was able to offer an explanation. More importantly, Stephen was able to offer positive steps to gradually improve my health, without inserting cameras where cameras shouldn't go, or scalpels either! I have been a client for 2 months now. Stephen and I work as a team, using diet, acupuncture, and herbal remedies. It is early days, but I haven't felt this well for several years. Although I have occasional bad days, I have much fewer, and recover much quicker. I have become very in tune with my body, and able to tell what works best. Stephen is always available to offer advice. For the first time in years, I feel confident that I can look forward to a healthy future. Bev (November 2000)
