Case Study 1 - Cerebral Palsy Spastic Quadriplegia Treatment
Laura was born 24 July 1984 - diagnosis cerebral palsy spastic quadriplegia.
Previous therapies tried:
Previous therapies tried:
- Conductive Education between ages of 4 until 12 years.
- 75 sessions of HBOT.
- Physical therapy and use of both rigid and inflatable splints.
- David Hart orthotic walker age 10/12.
- G-Therapy was started at the age of 12 and continues until today April 2000
Laura has had no surgery. She has taken G-Therapy for 5 years.
I feel that of all the above therapies we have tried for Laura that G-Therapy has been the only one that appears to have worked on a neuronal level. Though the initial changes had been startling, progress was more slow afterwards as it appeared she had so many corrections to make in her body. It has been a rewarding learning process for both of us.
a) relates to Laura prior to G-Therapy.
b) relates to global changes observed during G-Therapy.
1a) previously dribbled/drooled in bed. Could not turn under bedding.
1b) No longer dribbles in bed, bedding is cleaner and she turns with ease now in the bed.
2a) Unable to roll tongue. Speech tone could be weak.
2b) rolls tongue with ease. Breathing became stronger, speech much more stronger and powerful.
3a) Immune system. This seemed underdeveloped and Laura had many chilblains.
3b) Laura seemed to develop childhood bugs more normally and shake them off well. There has been a huge improvement in her circulation, for the last two winters she has only had one chilblain each winter.
4a) Mealtimes. Unable to swallow tablet medication, it had to be crushed in a teaspoon. She made a lot of mess at mealtimes. Laura's fluid intake was very low.
4b) Laura can swallow large vitamin tablets today without any fluid. Laura drinks much more than she did before G-Therapy. Laura's appetite is excellent.
5a) Fine Motor Control. This was poor. A marked preference in using her left hand. Laura could not curl her toes down.
5b) Fine motor control much improved. Laura's writing and drawing noticeably improved. She will use her right hand on the computer now. She attempts to use scissors with some success, and unbelievably managed to cracks nuts with a nutcracker. Her wrists have improved with the crawling, as I feel has the rest of her body. Laura started to curl her toes downwards after 18 months on G-Therapy.
6a) Gross Motor Control. Laura could not get into a crawling position, she constantly fell to the right. She could not put her bottom onto her heels. Laura could not pull herself up to standing nor get into a side-sitting position.
6b) She can now side-sit both to the left and right while holding a bar. She can also crawl up on her fours. Her bottom goes easily onto her heels. She can pull herself up to standing with wallbars. For the first 4 years on G-Therapy she wanted very much to crawl as she said her body needed it. Recently she has been concentrating more on her walking. She tells me that her knees are stretching more than they have ever previously done. She experiences many comfortable cracks in them. We can visibly see the muscles building in them and Laura is telling me that her knees are feeling looser.
We are taking this carefully and slowly, because it has been accompanied by aching. Her knees have been extremely spastic, but I am cautiously optimistic, because we have seen the spasticity go from the right heel. This heel had been so rigid that it had been up about 4 inches when I tried to walk her. It is now generally flat unless tired. I can rotate this previously stiff right foot extremely well and also get an excellent up and down movement with it.
7a) Vision. Laura could be very slow to track with her eyes.
7b) She can now read small road signs when travelling in the car, previously she had been unable to do this. General improvement on focussing on small objects e.g. birds in trees.
8a) Prior to G-Therapy Laura seemed very much less aware of correct positioning for her whole body.
8b) Laura seems to be aware of correct positions for mobility. Her motivation, concentration and co-ordination have all changed for the better.
9a) Education. When Laura had attended junior primary school, she found mathematics almost incomprehensible.
9b) Because there was such a change in my daughter after G-Therapy, we decided to opt for "home education". The Education Authority provided a teacher twice weekly, who told me Laura's maths had become nearly age appropriate. We thought it very advisable for home-education so that she could benefit from an input of therapy, as for the first time in her life she seemed to be so very much more aware of what was needed. I no longer had to encourage her, she wanted to do it. This came from within, this is how she changed on G-Therapy. Her self awareness had changed, she had to have the opportunity to avail of this.
10a) Bathtime. Prior to G-Therapy this has been difficult.
10b) There has been a change recently. Laura sits on a stool in a low level bath, recently she has been able to leave go of the bath handles, she keeps holding her arms out in front of her. Before I was constantly having to touch her for support.
11a) Startle Reflex and Spasticity in teens. Both of these were severe prior to G-Therapy.
11b) We wish that Laura had had the chance to try G-Therapy from the age of 18 months or even earlier. We feel the progress would have been quicker. But we are so happy to report that changes have been continuous through her teens. Her startle reflex has almost completely vanished. She tells me daily the spasticity in her knees is loosening. She feels them stretching and aching behind.
Laura now tells me that she can now feel where her spasticity is, that prior to G-Therapy she couldn't as it always stayed the same. She tells me that the crawling (totally impossible before G-Therapy), seems to have rid her body of most of the spasticity, it had been all over. Now she feels it mostly in the knees and it annoys her! She says she can feel her knees becoming looser, and she is 17 !
She experiences extra high tone when localised changes are happening. This can and has lasted various periods of weeks, and has been our most difficult time, often associated with wet hands and feet. After this has passed, she usually has an influx of new feelings or sensations, an awareness of something that has changed. This is currently happening in the knees. Laura tells me that a high tone period, ( in the early days it concerned me), is due to tiredness due to the changes taking place. She tells me that this high tone period is actually doing something beneficial, that it is stretching something. She says that it is not the same as spasticity as that never changed, therefore it has been well worth continuing with G-Therapy through her teens, because we have noticed a very regular pattern and the progress continues. Other than these high tone periods and the odd aches, Laura has had no bad effects from G-Therapy. Laura' spine has had many comfortable cracks as has the rest of her body. These cracks also seem to help her spasticity to ease. They make her feel much more comfortable and she no longer twists at the hips in the buttocks when in the Kaye-walker. The cracking in various joints has been a positive sign of change taking place.
I conclude in saying that Laura's changes have been global, and certainly seem to continue. These sustained changes have led to a much improved quality of life. The results have been more positive and hopeful than any other therapy we tried. Laura has had no detrimental side-effects.
We continue with hope down this road,
Val (Laura's mother)

Laura's mail to Dr. Oswal:
G-Therapy has helped me in a way that no other treatment has been able to do, because now I know the correct movements, whereas before I really didn't know how to put my limbs in the right positions, even if I did know how to do things my body was far to stiff to be able learn anything. Sometimes I feel like G-therapy has re-programmed my brain, in order for it to function properly. At the moment my knees are showing very promising signs of improvement I can feel both knees stretching at the front and mainly at the back and they are cracking everyday. Which I think is very beneficial for getting rid of the tightness in my knees completely.
I used to crawl nearly everyday, to stop me getting stiff, now I've got past that stage and walk instead with the aid of a Kaye-walker. It took me a long time before I felt I was ready to walk. The crawling was vital for loosening my hips and building up the muscles all over my body. My knees are the tightest part of me so I have to take it slowly so that they don't ache too much, but even if they do ache I know from the feel of them it will help them in the long term. Ever since the first day on G-therapy I've been changing for the better, and because of this I am very grateful to Dr Oswal for all his help.

Laura Testimonial
My daughter Laura was born at 29 weeks (d.o.b. 24. 07. 84.) she suffered respiratory distress syndrome which led to her diagnosis of cerebral palsy spastic quadriplegia.
Prior to G-Therapy we had tried non invasive therapies which were physiotherapy, occupational therapy, Conductive Education, the David Hart orthotic walker, HBOT and various inflatable and rigid splints.
I decided to try G-Therapy for Laura not really thinking I would notice any change in her. Laura was just about entering her teens years.
Laura's changes on G-Therapy appeared to be cognitive, which I had not expected at all, since Laura could read and talk. These changes since she first took G-Therapy have led to slow, but steady physical progress being observed. Changes in both gross and fine motor control were noticed. We also had some excellent progress with her vision and there was a dramatic increase in how much Laura wanted to drink. Her tongue control was one of the early changes noticed. This led to an improvement in her swallowing and more power in her speech, which though good had been weak.
Her startle reflex also diminished very quickly, and I felt this helped with her motor control. Laura began to side sit on her own for the first time in her life both to the left and the right, she did this leaning on chairs and holding wall bars. She began to crawl up on her hands and knees, a reciprocal crawl that she had never done previously. This lasted a long while 5/6 years. Laura also began to roll over much more in her bed, she had found that extremely difficult and had rarely done it before G-Therapy.
I felt lucky that the first day that my daughter took G-Therapy she was able to inform me that she felt a slight tingle/ache on the left side of her head.(it was intermittent and only lasted the first day). This same day she picked up a glass of orange juice with her right hand for the very first time. Naturally I queried this with Dr.Oswal, his reply was astounding to me, he said, "neurotransmitters started to work". It was my understanding that the left side of the brain might help the right side of the body and Laura's right side was the most affected by her cerebral palsy.
I kept Laura steadily on G-Therapy through out her teen years. Then after giving her some gaps, I noticed her progress continued, obviously from the initial impetus that the G-Therapy had given to her neurotransmission.
Laura's changes have been slow, but absolutely steady and recently in her Kaye-walker she is taking much more weight on the right side of her body. She will regularly test her own balance taking her hand off the Kaye-walker or the wall bars. Laura experiences both tired and lively days.
Laura can feel all that is happening to her body and constantly tells me why she must do a certain movement. There was also an excellent improvement in her recent summer holiday/vacation where Laura has been making much more use of her arms on the side of the swimming pool.
Laura has had no bad effects from G-Therapy, but we have had difficult days she tells me which is due to something changing in her body. This has always calmed down again and there has been a regular pattern noticed and further progress may soon be seen again.
Laura has had no surgeries. Progress observed continues to give both Laura and myself hope and we both owe this to Dr. Oswal.

Laura looks extremely spastic. This is the first time she had ever floated in her life. She could not float before she took G-Therapy.
These two photos clearly show Laura swimming 5 to 6 years (2002) after she began G-Therapy. The year we took these photos Laura began to swim consistently and she used no aids. Co-ordination and control of her body has developed .She could not pick her arms up to the edge of the pool until 2007, during 2008 this began to improve. She began to reach for swimming aids on the edge of the pool for the first time. I still have to help Laura in and out of the pool.Laura has consistently showed change ever since she first took G-Therapy. Her progress has been slow, but at a time when my understanding is there would have been little progress if any in her condition.Laura could not roll over in her bed when she began G-Therapy.She has recently begun to use the treadmill. It is not perfect yet, because her knees are still changing.
And the following is a personal letter by Laura....
Dear Dr. Oswal and G-therapy Group, I have just returned from a few weeks in France. I have had a lot of improvements with my swimming in particular. Before this year I could only swim on my own for a short length of time, and generally used polystyrene swimming aids around my arms for help. This year, I used them twice, after that I found my ability in the water had changed so much for the better, I didn't need them any more. I also found I could swim to the edge of the pool, and use my legs to push myself up so I could hold on. Last year I only managed to do this on maybe 2 or 3 occasions during my whole trip, this time I did it everyday, often not having to count how many times I managed to do it. On some days tiredness would affect how good it was. I was also beginning to swim in a straight line, previously I would go off to my weaker right side and not be able to maintain the correct position. The feelings in my legs would change everyday, sometimes they would either feel very heavy,another day they would feel light. I always preferred the heavier legs,because it made both legs hang down,giving them a chance to pull more muscles. My elbows have also improved they have been very tight like my knees,in the pool this year the right arm started to push downwards trying to lock, it would make swimming difficult sometimes. I have a long polystyrene float,which I needed when I got tired. It was always on the side of the pool ready for me to use, before I had needed someone to get it and help me onto it. This year I was able to get the float and get onto it without any assistance. My arms also started to go up in the air,trying to go straighter while I was swimming,again I hadn't done this before. Now I really like to use the Kaye-walker on the lawn, the bumpier and more difficult the surface is the more I like it, being on the grass slows me down and allows me time to concentrate and makes me push harder. I even told Mum she had cut it far too short! Another change was when I knelt high up at the wallbars and put my arms up,my balance has improved slightly. I still get tight days and the changes are slow, but this has been a highly positve and productive time for me recently.

Case Study 2 - Cerebral Palsy Spastic Quadriplegia Treatment
Dear Dr. Oswal
I met you last Easter when you came to give a talk on G Therapy in England and have been taking the treatment since the 24th December ’97.
I am writing this letter to thank you for the treatment and let you know how I am progressing.
When you first saw me I had very little balance and was unsure of myself, but about a week after I started taking the pills I stood up for a long time and my balance has got better and better ever since. I have been practicing and can now move my arms outstretched in front of me and to the sides. I am able to move my upper body whilst keeping balance and hold things. The other day my Gran and I were playing catch and I was able to both catch and throw the ball for a short whilst standing by myself.
My walking is also much better. Before I was pleased to walk three steps badly but now I am able to walk across our sitting room with confidence. My steps and movements are much more controlled and if I concentrate I can change direction. I can now also carry light things when walking like a magazine or books.
One of the best things about my physical condition is I now have very little pain, my muscles are more relaxed than before and they don’t get as tight, if there is any pain I know that it is because my muscles are working well I can also lift my legs up higher than ever before when I lie on my side and I can lift them up slightly when I am on my tummy. I can also sit on the floor for longer periods of time without falling over and can sit cross legged.
My family and friends have noticed some smaller positive changes in me. My parents say I look more healthy and alert and that I am generally more aware of the world around me. People also say I look taller because my legs are straighter. I feel more confident and more able to deal with things. I have never been able to tell the time very quickly and often got it wrong but now it comes much easier to me and even though I will never be good at Maths. I think I am slightly quicker at adding up.
I have just finished my College course and am going to Newport University in Wales next year, so will be away from home. I am glad that I started G-Therapy because I know everything good that has come from it is going to help me whilst I am there and will continue to do so in the future especially as I am going to carry on with the treatment.
I find every new change very exciting and can’t wait to see what’s going to happen in the future because I feel that I can Only improve.
Thank you for everything. I hope that you and you’re family are well and wish you all the best.
Yours gratefully,
T. R.

When you first saw me I had very little balance and was unsure of myself, but about a week after I started taking the pills I stood up for a long time and my balance has got better and better ever since. I have been practicing and can now move my arms outstretched in front of me and to the sides. I am able to move my upper body whilst keeping balance and hold things. The other day my Gran and I were playing catch and I was able to both catch and throw the ball for a short whilst standing by myself.
My walking is also much better. Before I was pleased to walk three steps badly but now I am able to walk across our sitting room with confidence. My steps and movements are much more controlled and if I concentrate I can change direction. I can now also carry light things when walking like a magazine or books.
One of the best things about my physical condition is I now have very little pain, my muscles are more relaxed than before and they don’t get as tight, if there is any pain I know that it is because my muscles are working well I can also lift my legs up higher than ever before when I lie on my side and I can lift them up slightly when I am on my tummy. I can also sit on the floor for longer periods of time without falling over and can sit cross legged.
My family and friends have noticed some smaller positive changes in me. My parents say I look more healthy and alert and that I am generally more aware of the world around me. People also say I look taller because my legs are straighter. I feel more confident and more able to deal with things. I have never been able to tell the time very quickly and often got it wrong but now it comes much easier to me and even though I will never be good at Maths. I think I am slightly quicker at adding up.
I have just finished my College course and am going to Newport University in Wales next year, so will be away from home. I am glad that I started G-Therapy because I know everything good that has come from it is going to help me whilst I am there and will continue to do so in the future especially as I am going to carry on with the treatment.
I find every new change very exciting and can’t wait to see what’s going to happen in the future because I feel that I can Only improve.
Thank you for everything. I hope that you and you’re family are well and wish you all the best.
Yours gratefully,
T. R.
Case Study 3 - Cerebral Palsy Spastic Diplegia Therapy and Treatment
3. 10. 2000
Zoe started on G Therapy just before her 13th birthday. Prior to this she had number of years contact with the pets institute in Budapest and Sheffield along with the usual NHS services. She currently attends for Sessions at Bobath Scotland where I believe the exercise programme is complemented by the use of G Therapy.
The changes noticed in Zoe on the Therapy have been suite ones perhaps due to the fact she was quite old and well developed when we began starting on it. There have been numerous ‘sensations’ in her limb and cracks in the affected joints e.g. Ankles, knees, elbows and even lips, sometimes a feeling of warmth eventually, a ‘crack’ then some relief of the feeling of pressure she has experienced in the joint. Noticeably, there has been a change in her left foot which has previously been twisted inwards causing her to walk on the outside tip of that foot, It is now easier for her to recognise when this foot is twisted and to straighten it although still quite difficult in the standing position.
She is also more aware of general posture in sitting and standing and will try to correct this.
On a occasion earlier this year Zoe experienced a lot of heat in her left hip then finally after some hours a loud crack , then as she was in bed by now and sleeps on her tummy, she found she could get the hip down to touch the bed and had never been able to do this before. This improvement remains.
The pressures of a full time education Zoe is currently at standard grade level and travelling 40 miles by bus twice a day to and fro from school mean that we can’t spend as much time as we might on physio etc. However Zoe enjoys the social aspects of school and is hoping to achieve 5 ‘O’ grades next year in English, Maths, French, Biology and Geography.
She is a very happy young lady and feels that G Therapy has made a difference to her life. She has definitely not deteriorated since taking it and is managing to keep mobile and a good posture when normally in teenage years with her condition these would deteriorate.
Zoe’s writing and numeracy (always a huge challenge!) have improved over this period and it is possible that G Therapy has helped here too.

Case Study 4 - Cerebral Palsy Treatment
My son Matthew is 7 years old and was born 3 months premature at 27 weeks weighing 216 703, he stayed in special care for 11 weeks. Once home he was under a pediatric consultant at the local hospital who at 15 months diagnosed Cerebral Palsy or Spastic Diplegia with some degree of delayed fine motor Control. His academic ability and speech did not seem to be affected.
He has had physiotherapy from this early age and lots of encouragement through play to help keep him as flexible and motivated as possible. By the age of 2 years he crawled for the first time and at 3 ¼ years he took his first steps- all be it stiff, unsteady and on his toes. Since this time we have worked very hard with Matthew to help him to maintain the movement he has got in order to cope with his numerous growth spurts. We have also sought other alternative therapies.
Since starting Matthew on G-Therapy in February 2000, the next day after taking the first tablets his tone in his legs had reduced and in Matthew’s words ‘Felt like Jelly’. His right ankle was more flexible (which had always been the tightest) and we could rotate his feet more easily, and he was able to spread his toes apart for the first time.
After a few weeks he stood straighter and now does not lean to one side when standing. After 2 months his handwriting had improved to the extent that he can now write on the line a lot smaller and does not slope his words across the page, his drawing has improved and he can now use a ruler with confidence.
More recently he has said he can feel when his knees are back and straight and is just beginning to heel strike when walking as his right foot is almost down to the ground which he wasn’t able to do before.
After 5 months he was able to stand on one leg for a few seconds at a time which means his balance is developing and on 23rd, July 2000 he went up and down 3 steps on his own without holding on to something which he could not do before G- Therapy.
We as parents are very pleased with the changes that have taken place, and are seeing continual improvements therefore we will continue to keep Matthew on G-Therapy.

Case Study 5 - Cerebral Palsy Treatment
After a little while of taking G Therapy, my daughter Bryony has progressed in a number of ways.
A lot of the improvements came quite shortly after starting the treatment, which was in Dec. 99.
When she went back to school in January her physio remarked on how her trunk control had improved and strengthened. She is also getting Bryony to stand unaided, at first for only 5 seconds, but is extending it all the time. Physically she is certainly much stronger, can now lower herself to the floor slowly and with control , instead of bumping down onto her bottom. She can climb up and down the stairs holding the rails with no support, and the people at her riding group are really pleased at her progress, she is now steering her horse and trying to give it instructions, whereas before she was very passive and wouldn’t speak or react at all.
Another of the very prominent improvements, is her speech, both in quantity and clearness. You can now have a conversation with her quite easily, although the amount of ‘why ’s’ can still drive you nuts!
Her fine motor control has improved, and she likes to manipulate objects now, in fact likes to have a go at most things, a well used phrase is ‘me mummy, myself.
A lot of people have commented on how much Bryony has improved, teachers friends and neighbours, family and especially those who have not seen her for a while, and this improvement extends to her awareness and assertiveness, even her manner. The only down side being that she does get frustrated when not being understood, or being able to do things she wants to. Before this was not such a big problem.
With Best Wishes
