Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="victry77" data-source="post: 147701" data-attributes="member: 23137">Hi, thank you both very much for your feedback.Amanda - that's very interesting that some diabetics have told you that they aren't meant to have treatments. I wonder where they get their information? That being said, I visit an holistic therapy forum & the subject of diabetes came up. One well qualified & experienced therapist said she'd turned away custom from umpteen people because they were diabetic. It was only now that the topic had come up on the forum (with input from myself and another lady who was T1) that she was kicking herself for losing out on so many new clients and also mis-informing them about how they couldn't have treatments due to their diabetes. I think the problem is that on some of these course they are being told (by tutors who probably know very little if anything about the condition) that diabetics should not have treatments (they have diabetes so they surely must have all the problems that go withi it). Perhaps some of the clients you've treated have previously been told by another therapist that it's a no-no.Anyway, yes, I will let you know how I get on. I'm very excited. I'm hoping it's going to be something really positive that comes out of getting diabetes. I'd doubt I'd have ever really got into holistics if I'd never become diabetic. Right now, though, I just want to enjoy learning it all with the idea of a little business being a long-term goal I can look forward to. Please feel free to share some of your experiences whenever you like  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> Nigel - thank you for your best wishes & sorry to hear the reiki didn't help with your shoulder. Did you just have one treatment or a series of treatments? I think reiki can be a tricky thing & while some people experience really interesting things other just don't. The idea is that it's meant to go where it's needed most. Also, it can often ease symptoms but if the problem is caused by something underlying then that is what needs treating, i.e. it can ease a toothache but if you need that tooth taking out... then it it needs to come out no matter what & the pain will still come back no matter how much reiki you get. :?   xx</blockquote>
