SUNFLOWER THERAPY STAGES OF ASSESSMENT AND
TREATMENT

• 1. Provisional consultation, assessment and
  report
• 2. Structure
• To assess and treat the muscular skeletal system
  so that patients can lie, sit, stand and walk
  normally.
• Neurology
• a) To evaluate about 200 reflexes which relate
  to finer co-ordination and balance and also
  those reflexes which relate to information
  input, storage and retrieval.
• b) Clearing negative neuro associations to
  remove habitual negative patterns of responses
  which block the childs ability to learn.

• 4. Nutritional Evaluation and Prescriptions
• To test for
• neuro-transmitter activity
• the balance of glands and organs
• liver detoxification pathways
• respiratory system
• auto-immune system
• gastro-intestinal tract
• inflammatory pathways
• allergies
• other systems
• and treat through diet, supplements and
  homeopathy.

5. Psychological Reconditioning Neuro
Linguistic Programming (NLP) is used to assist
the child in establishing a positive attitude and
approach. It gives the child more
self-confidence and the ability to more readily
access the resources they have for dealing with
challenges successfully.

LATEST STUDY
During the years 1999 - 2002 The Sunflower Trust
in conjunction with the Roehampton Institute
London (part of Surrey University), co-sponsored
a three-year PhD research project on the
Sunflower Therapy. Unfortunately the researcher
in question did not complete the work and
disappeared with much of the research data and it
would appear, with some of the post assessment
sheets of clinical data. Fortunately the Pre
and Post Sunflower screen data of 61 dyslexic
children has survived and it is part of this I
would like to present to you today.

OBJECTIVES OF STUDY
1. To discover if there are elements of
impaired efficiency in the many
different areas of function controlled by the
nervous system.2. To determine if it is
possible to improve these areas of function via
natural medicine.3. To establish
if improvements in such functions are associated
with comparative improvements in their
learning abilities, health, behaviour
and performance.Significant improvements in
quantitative and qualitative recorded scores
measured during the course of the research would
in our view, provide good clinical evidence for
the value of the Sunflower Therapy. The
Sunflower method is not a substitute for special
needs teaching for dyslexic children but
complementary to it.
