I’ve had chronic back pain for more than five years and have tried various forms of pain management, including: chiropractic care, massage and aqua therapies, physical therapy and spinal injections with no relief. I was fortunate enough to discover Linda Ryan. Through her customized regimen, I experienced almost immediate relief, which now enables me to assume the lifestyle I was accustomed to. Although I’m not finished with treatments, I am no longer taking any pain medication and am 95% pain-free most of the time.

I'm writing this testimonial to encourage anyone out there who hasn't been helped by doctors, were told they're crazy, who think they can't get better, who have tried everything. I hope you don't have to go through what I did to find help. I have struggled with Adrenal fatigue, "Brittle" Thyroid (meaning one that doesn't even respond well to meds), Fibromyalgia, Chronic fatigue, Depression, etc. Until I pursued alternate therapies, I saw no improvement. I had little kids, and spent 5 days of the week in bed and struggled to care for them. Since then I have come a long way, and I must say that going to Linda has been one of the MOST FRUITFUL things I've ever done to help myself. Not only is she truly caring, she gets her joy from helping others and is a sincere student of the human condition. It's simply biology--she works with how God made us--not voodoo. One of the things I've experienced since seeing her: my thyroid is healing! Lately my body has needed only 1/6th the amount of meds as in the past. That's unheard of! Also, after being tested for Lyme (and having 2 bulls eye sites over 2 years), with Linda's help and a strict Herbal protocol, I have tested negative! I feel she is all about helping me. So, if you're out there and feeling hopeless, don't. Here is someone who can truly help.

"I had never heard of "B.E.S.T." before my recent appointment, but I was having difficulty getting rid of bronchitis. I had never felt so exhausted. Even after two rounds of anti-biotic and being sick for two months, I just couldn't get better. To be honest, I was skeptical about what could be done to help. After the B.E.S.T. treatment I had, I noticed the back pain I lived with for so long was gone. I wasn't sure that anything else had changed, though. On my ride home, however, I started feeling much better physically. I could tell my energy level was changing and it improved even more the next day! My co-workers were amazed and told me that I looked like my old self again. I felt 1,000 times better than the day before! I now can say I'm going back!

"I found out about Linda at TTJOH two months ago at a time when I was in great need of help. I have been diagnosed pschizotypical with a strong OCD strain. I've been in psychiatric hospitals over twenty-three times in the past fifteen years. This made me feel hopeless and depressed. The first thing I was told that changed my thinking was, 'you're not mentally ill but you have energetic interferences in your body that need to be resolved.' I have come to see myself as a 37 year-old person with serious interferences in my body. The first day of treatment, I left with hope and joy. After 2 months, I still feel the same way because the things that used to cause intense anxiety and fear are no longer plaguing me. They have truly been worked out of my body. My family and those around me see me as being my best ever in 15 years. I have seen many doctors and therapists and not one of them has gotten to the depth of insight that Linda has. I've also noticed a huge difference in how I feel physically since changing my diet to be more pH balanced. I look forward to being totally healed one day. Thanks to the work we've accomplished together, I can see myself taking long-awaited trips to visit family and friends. It has been years since I've been able to feel that maybe I can live a normal life. This process has given me new hope and I recommend it to anyone who is ready for a change."

"I started seeing Linda for my rheumatoid arthritis symptoms. She helped me realize how my body has been holding onto old feelings and reactions that have been harming me physically and emotionally, and that haven't been able to change by counseling or medications. The B.E.S.T. work that she's done with me helped me over extremely bad back pain, where I couldn't even bend over or get up easily. The pain is totally gone! She also helped me realize certain emotions that I was feeling and needs that I had but was unaware of. These helped me change direction onto a path of recovery that I continue on today. Her work has helped me be aware of my body and my self more, so I can stay better tuned in to my needs as I live daily. I thank her and God for this!"

For over eight years I have had Lyme disease that has affected my life dramatically. The doctors didn't catch it early making my recovery take longer than most, to understate it. In that time I have been on many medications that would work at first only to have my progress slowed or reversed for many different reasons. I had a short period 3 years ago where I was completely well and I went off medication. Once off meds I then relapsed close to where I was before after a few months. I am now on long term medication that has been working, and I have been getting better just at a seemingly slow pace, with noticeable changes happening every few months.

Since I have been getting treatment from Linda I have seen more dramatic changes in my energy levels, peace of mind, processing speed, and just acting more and longer like who I was when I was well. All of which the Lyme disease had greatly affected. The treatments have also helped free me up of my doubts, insecurities and unresolved anger. I feel comfortable explaining my troubles and I trust her and her practice almost soundly. I was not always that way at first.I make sure to keep an open mind to almost everything, but I have to see facts or results to create a belief that can withstand attacks from others or myself. For me anyway, the contemporary medical system does not have a 100% success rate either.

I've learned alot about pH and have worked hard paying attention to the foods that help and hurt me. Changing my diet to keep my pH healthy has been key to the improvements I see. Sometimes I feel extremely tired after the treatments but I'm also freed up and a ton better! I am hopeful and believe that I will be well soon and completely well soon after, with help from Linda.

I first came to Linda at TTJOH for issues with my thyroid. I have been diagnosed with mild Hashimoto's disease (an auto-immune disease) that my specialist did not feel warranted treatment. I have several growths on my thyroid that appear to be benign being formed by my condition, but it is not warranted of being a concern, well at least to my doctor. The specialist's only concerns were that I had a lack of vitamin D issue. Essentially I was told I'm overweight because I don't exercise 7 days a week (working out with a trainer 5 days a week was not enough!). They sent me to a nutritionist, and vitamin D supplements were given to me. None of these things has helped me even after six months of doing exactly as directed. The growths have left me several issues that I needed help with. The first was food getting caught in my throat; second was weight gain (30 lbs in less than 6 months before my wedding) and always feeling tired. I was so discouraged and asked Linda for help. I am truly grateful that she takes the time to look at all the issues, asks questions, and doesn't shove me out the door in a ten minute appointment. I always feel like I'm being heard. Since I've started my treatments, I have brought up other issues. I had TMJ issues that were treated and are not painful anymore. Even though I'm still needing treatments, improvements are still happening. My migraines have decreased. I'm not having food get "stuck" in my throat as often, I'm sleeping better and feel more energized during the day than I have in years. The weight is slowing coming off. I'm going for my evaluation of vitamin D in a week, so I may have some additional good news to report! Thank you TTJOH for believing me that I KNOW my body better than a specialist who sees me once every six months!
