...If anyone would have asked me this question ten years ago, my prompt and firm answer would have been: “No!”
I had studied conventional medicine, as well as several natural healing methods, like neural therapy, acupuncture, chirotherapy and others. Next to exploration and clinical examination I knew a lot about other tools, like diagnosing by sight, looking at one’s tongue, examining geloses and reflex zones of the body. I used my six senses and a broad knowledge about muscle-testing, too, and so I thought I was well-equipped, compared to other colleagues.
But life told me that I had to think twice when my husband, a physician, along with a biophysician by the name of Dieter Jossner, began to design a new test device. Wives are often the first guinea pigs in such projects, when it comes to testing what a new method can do.
Usually I am very healthy, but there was a time when I suffered from neuralgic pain in my face, and I thought that it was a tooth in my upper jaw. My dentist couldn’t find any reason for this discomfort, and as the pain became stronger, my suffering became almost unbearable. This was the hour of the newly-invented Reba® device. My husband tested and found that my energies, both physical and emotional, were very low – something that I hadn’t known of, and that no one could have seen from my outer appearance. (Medical practitioners tend to do their jobs with much enthusiasm and self-discipline, overruling some of their own bodies’ signals and complaints, in order to be there for their patients).
The really big surprise was the emotional issue we found. It was ‘hyperactive’, causing an autonomic block in the region of the upper jaw – exactly where the pain was!
