The following comments from ex af-x® Therapy clients mainly refer to problems associated with anxiety or panic attacks and includes phobias.

These comments are only provided as examples of what ex-clients have reported and you are reminded that everyone experiences the positive results of the af-x approach to therapy in his or her own unique and very individual way.


…It gives me much pleasure to write and tell you of the life changing success I have had following my three af-x sessions. I cant understand the way I feel at times my life is so changed, the fear and anxiety I always had in the pit of my stomach have been replaced by a calm self assurance that I can do whatever is put before me with a feeling of ease and confidence. This new freedom has also cured me of the chronic asthma I have had for the past 5 years. I haven't had any medication for the past 7 months and I have returned to my Real Estate work full time. It's a new life. 

My main reason for going to see you was to overcome my fear of driving over high-suspended bridges. I am now usually over them before I even realise it. Your work is so wonderful, I only wish more people could share in the true happiness it brings to those who partake in this treatment. I really believe this therapy is for the betterment of mankind. No matter what your state of health you have at present, life can only be richer for the small amount of time spent in the therapy. I wish I could tell the world. Best wishes to you and for your work.

af-x therapy was recommended to me by my GP. For several years I had suffered from infrequent periods of extreme anxiousness. My first occurrence was in the early 90's, which manifested itself in that I could not get a full breath in. It was a few years after that I experienced an anxiety attack at its worst. I had just finished morning tea at work and was feeling very relaxed and comfortable. No sooner had I started to work than I felt as if I was going to pass out. I lay down on a stack of Gyprock for a while hoping it would pass. 

The world appeared to be going past at a million miles an hour and I was so out of control. I basically left all of my tools out and just jumped in the ute and headed home. The feeling gradually subsided but its residual effects on my mind were devastating. Over the next couple of years I experienced the same thing approximately four times a year. 

A GP prescribed Xanax to me and it got to the stage where I would not leave the house without being medicated. Approximately two months prior to my af-x therapy I had made a conscious decision to break free of the drug- taking cycle and beat this thing. 

My doctor then referred me to Ian White for af-x therapy. At the beginning of my initial session I was under the impression that this was like all other types of therapies that required you to go into great detail about your history etc. It was very refreshing and confidence building to know that this method uses none of these traditional types of analysis. I must also confess that as a Christian I was somewhat concerned initially about the thought of someone "hypnotising" me. It soon became very clear that this was about self-help, self re-learning of aspects of your own mind and internal communication processes. At no time did I ever feel out of control or threatened. 

Since my af-x therapy I have not had one full-blown anxiety attack. I now understand what was causing my response to my environment and this in itself has been a revelation. I still get anxious at times like everybody else but I have been shown that these are just normal feelings and they do not have to progress to that next stage of uncontrollable panic. 

Initially I did not feel all that different and it was only after a few months of not having an attack did I realise that the benefits were actually there but not as obvious as I would have thought they were going to be. I guess I expected to walk out of there feeling invincible, instead I walked away from the sessions feeling like a normal human being!

I have suffered from anxiety for many years and had tried everything from meditation to asking my doctor for medication. Every person I saw either did not really know what to do to help me or they expected that my anxiety would just disappear after I had seen them. None of the therapies, medications or supplements I tried worked completely because my anxiety would always keep coming back.

I found this therapy very different. When I went to Ian he took the time to explain to me that every person experiences periods of anxiety and that some people actually have low levels of anxiety all the time without it necessarily having negative effects on their health or life. He explained that my anxiety was not something I should think of as a disease but a habit I'd learned to rely on for some reason.

This realisation was a relief because at last I'd found someone who didn't expect miraculous and immediate results! During the sessions Ian helped me to change the way I felt about my anxiety and the way he approached this automatically made me feel more relaxed and able to just let this happen. As I go about my life and work now I am much less anxious and can feel myself becoming more relaxed and happy.

…I went to you because of an ongoing problem with migraines, chronic headaches and a general feeling of "heaviness" in my head, neck and shoulders. My focus had always been on these problems without thinking about the fairly high level of anxiety that I also experienced. As a lawyer, I "need my head" and need it to be in good condition, so have always been against medication, except when there was no other choice.

After the therapy, I noticed that I seemed to be breezing through events that would have previously created a migraine. More to the point, with the headaches out of the way, I was able to notice that my anxiety level had reduced significantly, and with that, changes occurred to other aspects like anger levels, smoking (I stopped), and an obsessive need to "get things right."

While I thought my issue was a physical one (the migraines) I am now convinced that it all hinged on that anxiety which is thankfully a thing of the past.

Thank you for giving me my life and career back…

…As you know I am a general practitioner and in the past I have referred a number of my patients to you because I've seen the results of your work, even though at the time I was not altogether sure what your therapy was about. My impression was that it was some sort of counselling and meditation.

I had developed a phobia about going away on driving holidays with my family and the weeks of holiday preparation had become weeks of slowly building anxiety levels. Things got to unbearable proportions and that's why I came to see you. I was a little taken aback at not even needing to describe these symptoms to you, but I found your sessions to be relaxing and informative, particularly about brain functioning at emotional level and its impacts on the body.

My anxiety surrounding a pending 4-wheel drive holiday vanished almost immediately after those sessions, and has not returned prior to other later trips. As an adjunct, I have noticed that my much-improved anxiety state has impacted greatly on my golf game!

Now that I have a much better understanding of your work and have experienced the results for myself, I am happy to continue to refer those of my patients to you who will benefit from your form of therapy…
