[laughter] >> No, thank you. >> But we're going to be carrying on with our theme of reflexology works. And um I sort of put a a message out to my colleagues in Europe because I wanted this to be international. And um Elise immediately wrote back and she was going, "I've got one. I've got one." And so Elise, take it away. What are you going to tell us about and what happened with your clients? >> Uh today I would like to share with you something um that we meet sometime. It's um um what's a weird word in English? I have to read my note. Tiniches. I want to share with you difficulty um of this part in this trouble. >> Yes. And tenitus is such a difficult condition to treat. So this is going to be so so exciting. >> Yes. There is um a lot of tenitis. Um maybe there is um almost one person with tinitus and over one person with tenitus differently. So there is a lot of probability to uh to fill and to have uh some issue. It's not the same. So it's just an example. Yes. >> But evidently not for all people. >> Okay. >> Um like that. Okay. In this case um it's a man. He's um oh with the numbers in English 85 8 and five years >> sank. >> Yeah Kravan sank >> Kravan sank. So yes 85 >> 85 sorry my dear colleagues know that I'm very very bad with numbers to shame. >> You're amazing. [laughter] >> 85 years old Mr. death who came to see me for very sever sever sever teenagers. >> He had been experiencing um uh [snorts] from years um and since two years the symptoms was very very uh biggest uh and worse. So uh when he arrived at my practice, he was completely completely exhausted. >> Oh, >> the tit tenitis was constant and he could hard this sleep anymore and he haven't told me that time he has suicide through because the suffering has become uh so so um >> intolerable perhaps. >> Yes. Yes, it is. So the first thing I did was to refer him to a general practitioner doctor because he have a big bigger uh emotional difficulty with that >> and his doctor prescribed prescribed a mil anxolic that he could take if necessary >> not every day but if you think it's necessary you can take this. Um before coming to see Mr. F had already tried um osteopathy, succology and hypnosis >> but none of them uh a good um result nothing uh it's nothing happens. Um during the reflexologist um during the reflexology uh two other issue also appears low back pain and chronic constipation.

So I think it's very interesting to >> um just to remember the this tinitus can be um well can have some difficulty well a lot of systems auditorium system somato sensory system and neurologic and emotional system. So >> it's a big thing to to work on it. Um he explain the ringing the ringing he say the ringing has discreased a lot but I feel extremely tired. >> Okay. >> Always. >> Okay. >> So uh we try to do things something uh but just um um my first objective was not to work directly on these tinures but rate to help calm this nervous system. >> Mhm.
