Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 , I am a student and have not treated anyone with chronic EBV as yet, but this seems like a great case in which to get grounded back into explaining to people how treating them on a physiological level can restore their health regardless of what is causing their current symptoms. Tell her you and she are going to get to the CAUSE of why she got EBV in the first place and then she is gradually going to move, under her own steam, to a place of health where she will be responding in a different and more adaptive way to whatever she encounters in the future. In other words, I would get her mind OFF of the EBV and ONTO improving her health. This will help her move to a more secure and empowered state of trust, and away from the questioning, evaluating mindset that it sounds as if she is currently in (which is endemic in our society and the reason we are constantly educating and setting a completely different tone for our patients, so that they are ABLE to actually enter a healing state). Meanwhile, you can treat the virus in whatever way makes sense and work at figuring out why her body took on this virus and was unable to fight it off successfully. Try some CFD (Deirdre told me you are a fellow practitioner!). I hope that this was helpful.
