"When Caroline first started talking to me about the Coconut Diet, I remember I was quite skeptical. My reasons for the diet were to cleanse the yeast in my gut. Giving up all carbohydrates for 21 days didn't sound to appealing andÊwhen I realized that this meant all fruit, my morning coffee, and wine and alcoholÊI was really skeptical!!! I lived on fruit as a snack all day long and having to switch to vegetable sticks seemed bland. I started the diet and must admit the first 3 days were hard, but once I got used to vegetable drinks in the morning and lunches and dinners of salads, meats, and vegetables I was feeling much better!!! 21 days went by very fast. After the first week I was feeling great!! I hadn't had that much energy all day for about 10 years, no longer had a groggy head in the mornings and woke up feeling refreshed. The most important benefit for me was I was sleeping better than I had in 10 years.
I started the diet in late February and it is now June 2009 and I am still practicing a no carb diet but have introduced whole wheat grains and bread plus some fruit a few times a week. I still feel great and have purchased the book for 2 of my friends who have noticed how much better I am feeling!!!
Before The Body Group, I was taking lots of anti inflammatory's and ibuprofen and faced surgery of steroid injections in my back. Over the past few months The Body Group has helped my back healÊand given me a more healthy eating lifestyle. In addition, I no longer have migraine headaches and haven't taken any medication for my back in about 4 months!!!"

"In April 2003, I started having a sensitive feeling on the left side of my face and muscle tension in my left arm. At that time I was living in Switzerland, and over the next 18 months I was turned inside-out by the Doctors from the University Hospital in Lausanne, close to Geneva. Their research included two MRI scans of my head over a period of 12 months, various scans of my heart and veins in my head and neck. Luckily nothing was found and I was considered perfectly healthy. However the symptoms didn’t go away, in fact they intensified and started appearing in my left leg as well.
I arrived in Hong Kong in November 2004, and by then I had told myself to accept these symptoms and just live with it. Mid 2005 I had an annual medical check-up with Doctor Chan from the Medical Practice of Drs. Foster & Stevenson in Hong Kong. My symptoms had further intensified and Dr. Chan offered to have a fresh look at them. After he reviewed all the research results from Switzerland he suggested I try treatment with Caroline Rhodes from The Body Group in Hong Kong. This I started in September 2005.
I’m now very happy to say that results are there and my issues are much less than a year ago. All thanks to the effort from Caroline and her team. It took a number of treatments and analysis over a period of months before I could notice a difference. But my symptoms started to appear less frequent. I left it to Caroline and her team to try and analyze various treatments and by discussing the results we found possible causes. As this all started in 2003 and many medical tests had been done I was not expecting a quick fix.
Caroline also recommended consulting with an expert dentist. We found that the way my teeth close was one of the causes. I had already tried to explore my teeth as one of the issues when I was in Switzerland but never achieved buy-in to this idea. The holistic approach from Caroline did achieve this and I now have a solution to one of the causes.
The treatments from Caroline and her team are clearly having impact on me. My issues are not gone completely yet, but the frequency and intensity have minimized and I feel a lot better. I’m sure they will go away completely. Asking The Body Group to help me and trusting Caroline in her treatment has been of great help to me. I would certainly recommend her treatment if your issues can not be resolved by your Doctor, and if you’re open to trust a different approach."

"I just wanted to thank the Body Group for the excellent results I have received from treatment of back problems. Not only have they quickly given me comfort from the pain but have allowed me to improve my results in triathlons. I am continually amazed after leaving a therapy session how quickly my body adjusts to their treatment and the pain dissipates and my flexibility improves greatly. They have increased my quality of life and helped this weekend warrior attain his goals with less pain. For training “no pain no gain” works but when it comes to healing your back the techniques used by the Body Group are far superior and keep you from going under the knife. Thanks Again."

"My right arm was partly incapacitated by a general prickling effect.  I could not use my right arm.  The condition prevented me from swimming and kept me awake at night.  After having been treated at The Body Group, I recovered the full use of my right arm.  The prickling effect has completely disappeared.  I can sleep properly and I have begun swimming again.  I am 100% satisfied of the quality of the service, to the extent that I have referred my General Practitioner to The Body Group."

"Pain and discomfort in the muscles and joints. Improvement = complete end to pain. Totally effective. Completely satisfied. Particularly impressed with dedication of the staff in spending time to fully understand the problem, never just assuming."
Trevor, Hong Kong

"Osteoarthritis in almost all joints resulting in continued pain in lower back, stiff neck and ringing ears every morning, ankles that collapsed whilst walking. After one week of continued treatment on a daily basis my body was straight, my ears stopped ringing and my neck and back felt stronger. All achieved without any discomfort or pain whatsoever. Very satisfied. There was a very calm, friendly and professional attitude displayed by all staff members and was always taken on time."
Jan, Hong Kong

"Referred by my GP for treatment of residual headaches following surgery. The gentle Craniosacral therapy was an invaluable pain reliever. The techniques are effective and the psychological support of the friendly therapists greatly helped holistic healing."
Susannah, Hong Kong

"Stiffness and pain in shoulders, neck and lower back. The frequency of the pain is less. The conditions listed above are generally much more manageable. Very satisfied. Everyone always wants to get an appointment. The staff are friendly and make an effort to know me and my family members’ names. The ability of more than one practitioner to work at one time means that lots can be carried out in one treatment. Feeling better after even one treatment."
Robyn, Hong Kong

"I went to The Body Group for the first time around three months ago because of a stiff and painful neck. They did an assessment on my body and thoroughly explained to me what systems in my body were involved that were causing the pain, and they told me that we'd have to go to the core of the problem, rather than treating the neck itself. After one follow up session, the pain and stiffness in my neck disappeared, my accompanied headaches became less and less. The headaches too, are gone now.
Then, not too long ago, I've had a series of unfortunate events which included two surgeries within one week, which left my body/central nervous system in shock. They used IMT combined with Craniosacral Therapy on me to release the emotions and to linger my physical discomforts. They have done an incredible job. Truly amazing!
Thank you!"
