Summary
Jodi, a London aerobics instructor, became bedbound with ME/CFS after glandular fever while overworked and stressed. Over several years she improved using kinesiology, acupuncture, reiki, dietary changes, mantras and sound healing, crediting the process partly to addressing deep emotional wounds. She now reports full recovery, and the page promotes the paid recovery program she went on to create.
