Age: Around 13 years old

Most of the time, some sounds like throat cleaning sound, sniffing, or grunting sound will come
out involuntarily by my son's mouth. He is a patient who suffered from Tics disorder (Tourette Syndrome and ADHD). 
People around my son felt annoyed with his noisy sound. It affected his daily life and he feels ashamed of it. He even get bullied by his friends in school.

To get rid of it, my son visited neurologists and ate medicines. However, it only can be controlled at the very beginning and it seems that his body started to resist it with some side effects. I even went to temples and visited monk before. He lived with this condition and suffered for 2 years until I follow Hiro Koo's brain training, finally I saw hope. 

After following the training session with Hiro Koo, his vocal tics reduced significantly, he have better self-control even without finding any distraction. Besides, My son regained his confidence and he have better mood every day. I was amazed by this technique as it is a very effective training to control my son's vocal tics.

Review (Recover from Irritable Bowel Syndrome Symptoms) - IBS Treatment Malaysia

Client Name: Mr G

Before this, my life was inseparable from stomachache, bloated abdominal and constipation. It affected my daily life as it not only looked bad but also caused physical discomfort. Every day, I spent more hours in the toilet than normal people yet I felt uncomfortable. 

I visited many doctors and took a lot of medications. No matter how much Western medications and Chinese traditional medication I took, there was no improvement after the half year of treatment. I felt anxious and depressed, there was only one thought in my mind, “I’m dying soon”. 

However, I get rid of all these discomforts after I followed the treatment with Hiro Koo.

I learned how to reduce my stress and some useful techniques like self-hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and positive thinking. After reducing my stress, I felt more comfortable when going to the toilet. I become more positive and happy because I knew that this was not chronic and life-threatening disease, is just that there was some problem with my mental health and is curable. 

I was amazed by the treatment provided, it is very effective and very efficient that can reduce my physical discomfort within a very short period of time. In addition, the therapist is very well-experienced and patient, he explained to me clearly and help me by using his profession. I felt thankful and appreciated his hard works for giving me a new life.

语言发展迟缓儿童

曾经有客户一进来中心见我就要马上做治疗，我接受他的要求但也会很清楚的告诉客户治疗效果会有限。因为对我来说，个人历史Case History对于治疗成果的好坏扮演着非常重要之角色。

就拿一个被诊断为身心发展迟缓并无法说话的孩子之案例来谈。当我分析他的脑电波，个人历史，和与父母交谈后发现到疑似的根源问题。即这孩子从小不停的跌倒并进院无数次，导致他对于世界充满恐惧和焦虑感（甚至出现白袍效应white coat effect的现象）。

焦虑和害怕这点从他的行为和脑电波可以清楚地窥探到。

于是当我和儿童心理学家进行了研究和对孩子进行脑电波反馈疗法治疗后的2个月内，孩子有了明显的进展。母亲告诉我们说两个月后的今天，这孩子开始会用单字沟通了，并且不再那么害怕周边的人事物；甚至他跌倒的次数也显著的减少了！

如果我们忽略了分析Case History这环，或许我们就无法那么快看见孩子的进展了。

What is bipolar disorder?

Bipolar disorder is characterized by unusually large fluctuations in mood such that a person experiences recurrent episodes of depressedmood and episodes of being in an abnormally “elevated, expansive or irritable” mood according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual 4th ed. of the American Psychiatric Society (DSM-IV, 1994). Bipolar disorder was previously known as manic-depressive illness.

Describing Bipolar Disorder

Before describing the diagnostic features of bipolar disorder, it is necessary to understand that the elevated mood mentioned in the definition above is classified into two subtypes; manic, and hypomanic.

The DSM-IV states that a hypomanic episode is distinguished from a manic episode in that hypomania is not so severe as mania and does not lead to “marked impairment in social or occupational functioning or requiring hospitalization”.

Hence the symptoms exhibited in mania and hypomania are similar varying only in degree or intensity and may include:

• Self esteem significantly elevated above the usual, grandiosity

• Decreased need for sleep

• Hyperactivity

• Talking too much and or feeling the need to talk

• Racing thoughts

• Increased distractibility

• An intense drive to attain some goal (sexual, social or career in nature)

• Engaging in pleasurable activities without considering the long term consequences e.g. buying a condominium on the spur of the moment perhaps without the necessary financial means.

- Testimonial by Mr. Jeff Liau

What is IBS?
IBS is best understood as a long-term or recurrent disorder of gastrointestinal (GI) functioning. It usually involves the large intestine (colon) and small intestine with disturbances of intestinal/bowel (gut) motor function (motility) and sensation. These gut related activities are regulated by the brain. This may also be impaired, which is why IBS is often called a brain-gut disorder. These disturbances can produce symptoms of abdominal pain or discomfort, bloating or a sense of gaseousness, and a change in bowel habits (diarrhea and/or constipation).

The typical features of IBS are generally recognizable by a doctor. The most important first step in treating and managing symptoms is to see your doctor for a confident diagnosis of IBS.

Symptoms Cluster in IBS 

A number of symptoms that occur together characterize irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). This may confuse you at first. Plus, symptoms will likely change over time. The changes may seem random. But there is a pattern to symptoms of IBS.

►The key sign or symptom of IBS is pain or discomfort in the abdomen. The abdomen is the area below your chest and above your hips. 

►The other symptoms of IBS relate to your bowel habit. You’ll notice a change in frequency or consistency of stool (diarrhea or constipation). These changes link to the pain.

►The symptoms occur over a long term and come and go over time.

Some or all of IBS symptoms can occur at the same time. Some symptoms may be worse than others.

Abdominal pain is often described as crampy, or as a generalized ache with periods of cramps. Sharp, dull, gas-like, or modest pains are common. The IBS discomfort or pain usually feels better after a bowel movement.

Symptom Patterns Add Up To IBS

Certain signs and symptoms occur with IBS. Symptom-based criteria for IBS emphasize a positive diagnosis rather than extensive tests to rule out all other diseases. No tests confirm the diagnosis of IBS.

A detailed history, physical examination, and limited diagnostic tests help confirm the IBS diagnosis. More extensive testing is reserved for specific situations.

Other Symptoms May Accompany IBS

Persons treated for IBS commonly report upper gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. About 25% to 50% report...

• Heartburn
• Early feeling of fullness (satiety)
• Nausea
• Abdominal fullness
• Bloating

Other GI symptoms also reported include...

• Intermittent upper abdominal discomfort or pain (dyspepsia)
• Feelings of urgency (the need to find a restroom fast)
• Feeling of "incomplete" bowel emptying

Non-GI symptoms also occur. Sometimes, but not always, this may be due to an overlap of IBS with another condition. These symptoms include...

• Fatigue
• Muscle pain
• Sleep disturbances
• Sexual dysfunction

Other symptoms tend to occur with more severe IBS such as...

• Low back pain
• Headache

Symptoms sometimes seem contradictory, such as alternating diarrhea and constipation. It may help to keep a Symptom Diary so your doctor can see how your symptoms change over time and in relation to diet, stress, and other factors. 

Abnormal functioning of the nerves and muscles of the bowel produce the symptoms of IBS. A "dysregulation" between the brain, the gut, and the central nervous system causes the bowel to become "irritated," or overly sensitive to stimuli. Symptoms may occur even in response to normal events.

Mind: Hypnosis and The Power of Your Subconscious Mind
Hypnosis works by bypassing the critical filter of our mind to help the conscious mind directly access and suggest to the subconscious mind. Research has found that hypnotherapy may help improve the primary symptoms of IBS. It may also help relieve other symptoms suffered by many people with IBS such as nausea, fatigue, backache, and urinary problems. Hypnotherapy appears to offer symptomatic, psychological, and physiological benefit. Hypnotherapy is considered as a promising intervention for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4015203/) provides clearer evidence that hypnotherapy is an effective treatment in improving gastrointestinal symptoms of patients with IBS.
* We use the Gut-Directed Hypnotherapy to deal with IBS symptoms in Malaysia.

Brain: EEG biofeedback to deal with underlying issues 
The causes of anxiety and stress-related disorders such as IBS seem to be a complex interplay of predisposing heredity factors, childhood circumstances, hormonal imbalances and life-events. These disorders often involve an over-activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Because these disorders involve the activation of our most basic survival responses, often called "fight or flight" response it will always remain difficult to dampen that response. EEG biofeedback works to decrease psychophysiological reactivity and to improve recovery (by teaching the patient to activate the opposing parasympathetic system).

Body: Nutritional therapy for irritable bowel syndrome.

If you have IBS, you will know that a single meal choice can completely ruin your day by inducing painful abdominal pains or inconvenient bowel problems. A nutrition professional understands this relationship between food and mood. They can keep the symptoms of IBS at bay by applying their expert knowledge to your dietary habits. A nutrition professional can carry out a full nutrition assessment to establish possible dietary and lifestyle causes. This assessment will be used to devise an appropriate therapeutic diet and will be monitored to ensure that it is effective.

[Review] Anxiety management Malaysia: Neuro-hypnotherapy helped me to fall asleep faster and reduce anxiety symptoms

ST (40 years old), a highly anxious woman, turned to neuro-hypnotherapy when everything else failed. Through medical doctor advice, she learnt how neuro-hypnotherapy could deal with the issues that disrupting her sleep pattern. 
Before she was undergoing therapeutic sessions for her own anxiety symptoms, she obtained the score of 41 (High anxiety) on Beck Anxiety Inventory. At the end of her neuro-hypnotherapy session, her score reduced to 13(Low Anxiety) on Beck Anxiety Inventory.
The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is designed to measure sleep quality and disturbance over a 1-month period. All scores are combined according to the scoring criteria included with the form to produce a Global PSQI Score. Scores above 5 indicate clinically meaningfully disturbed or poor sleep. The global score on the PSQI was reduced significantly from 10 (very poor sleep quality) to 4 (better sleep quality).




ST:
I can't stop worrying about death and dying. I've been constantly imagining about death and how then everyone will care about me. I can't sleep because I'm afraid I'm going to die. My medical doctor told me to avoid taking sleeping pills because he knows how addictive they can be.
The other thing is I always have a horrible sharp pain under my shoulder, My medical doctor gave me painkiller and advised me to see a mental health care professional.

I met Hiro Koo during a corporate health talk. After the EEG brainwaves analysis session, I know myself better and able to find a way to treat the root cause of my issues. I choose the neuro-hypnotherapy because my issues can be managed without medications and no side effects.

The biggest difference before and after neuro-hypnotherapy? Well, now it takes me 15 minutes on average to fall asleep! Previously, it takes more than 30 minutes for me to fall asleep. I become happier, less fearful about death, less anxious and feel calmer than ever.
I also learned personalized self hypnosis method from Hiro Koo for pain management. I see a very noticeable improvement after a month of treatment. Absolutely no pain now with no noticeable side effects. I am impressed!

I would definitely recommend your services to any friend who need help. I am very pleased with neuro-hypnotherapy, which have significantly improved the functions of my health and quality of my life. I am very thankful to Hiro Koo for good help at the needful time.

What is Ataxia?

Ataxia describes a lack of muscle control during voluntary movements, such as walking or picking up objects. A sign of an underlying condition, ataxia can affect movement, speech, eye movement and swallowing.

Persistent ataxia usually results from damage to your cerebellum — the part of your brain that controls muscle coordination. Many conditions can cause ataxia, including alcohol abuse, stroke, tumor, cerebral palsy and multiple sclerosis. An inherited defective gene also can cause ataxia.

Treatment for ataxia depends on the cause. Adaptive devices, such as walkers or canes, might help you maintain your independence. Physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy also might help.

Ataxia Treatment

By Dr Ananya Mandal, MD

Ataxia has no cure. There are no medications that can specifically treat and cure the symptoms of ataxias. However, medications may ease the symptoms by treating the underlying condition that causes the ataxia.

The aim of treatment of ataxia is to improve the quality of life though patient education and provision of aids and devices to maintain self sufficiency and independence for as long as possible.

Ataxias due to underlying causes may be treated by treating these underlying causes that include stroke, a low vitamin E level or exposure to a toxic drug or chemical.

Treatment also revolves around managing the co-existing conditions such as muscle cramps, stiffness, tremor, spasticity as well as depression, anxiety, sleep disorders etc.

Ataxia is managed by a team of specialists in different fields. This is called the multi-disciplinary team.

A usual team of specialists who treat ataxias include a neurologist (one who specializes in diseases of the brain and nervous system), an ophthalmologist or eye specialist, a urologist who treats problems like urinary incontinence in these patients, a cardiologist or heart specialist who deals with cardiomyopathy in ataxia patients, a physiotherapist, a speech and language therapist, a psychologist, an occupational therapist, a social worker, diet advisor and a specialist neurology nurse.

A geneticist or a genetic counsellor may be part of the team dealing with hereditary ataxias.

[review] Tourette syndrome therapy malaysia - Henry Case

When I first sent my teenager boy for brain trainer (EEG biofeedback) and Neuro-hypnotherapy, I was hoping to help him to manage tourette syndrome and his attitude. Noticeable changes was seen after 3 treatment (Neuro-hypnotherapy and EEG biofeedback sessions), he had been more positive and well behaved. His tourette syndrome symptoms are ignorable today after 16 sessions of brain trainer (EEG biofeedback). I am really thankful to your centre for this miracle changes where no other doctors can do for him so far (He doesn't have to go through for surgery now).

- Mother of Henry, Mrs Koh.

In most cases, the treatment plan for tics could involve one or more of the following: 

• Treatments that don't involve taking medication – psychotherapy and alternative therapies 
• Medication – the three types of medication that may be prescribed are alpha2-adrenergic agonists, muscle relaxants and dopamine antagonists 
• Surgery –surgical techniques may be suitable - such as deep brain stimulation

Yes, In Malaysia we offer natural and alternative therapies for Tourette's Syndrome by using Neuro-Hypnotherapy and EEG biofeedback therapy:

1) Neuro-Hypnotherapy and self-hypnosis

Researchers at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, reported that self-hypnosis aided by the use of videotape training may help children with Tourette’s syndrome to manage tic disorders. Thirty-three young patients were recruited for the study and trained in self-hypnosis techniques by watching a videotaped series featuring a boy undergoing training for tic control. The results of the study, published in the “Journal of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics,” found that 79 percent of the participants continued to control tics after a six-week follow-up. Of theses, 46 percent were able to modify tic frequency after two self-hypnosis session, and 96 percent after three. The study concluded that self-hypnosis is a valuable addition to a multidisciplinary tic-management program.

2) EEG biofeedback therapy and Tourette Syndrome

Recent research has uncovered two key types of brain dysregulation in Tourette Syndrome. The first has to do with the sensorimotor rhythm, better known as the SMR. The SMR appears as distinct “spindle” patterns, representing synchronized electrical activity within the brain. Interestingly, the SMR is actually not yet well understood by neuroscientists. SMR amplitude is known to be higher when a person isn’t moving, when the sensorimotor areas of the brain are idle. Motor tasks and even motor mental imagery cause the SMR’s amplitude to decrease. Tourette Syndrome patients additionally have been shown to have excess theta wave activity in the frontal lobes. SMR and frontal theta dysfunction are believed to lie at the heart of Tourette Syndrome.

What is known, however, is that EEG biofeedback therapy can in fact be used to gain control over one’s own sensorimotor rhythm. This is at the heart of the potential of EEG biofeedback therapy to help manage Tourette symptoms. Researchers are already producing evidence that EEG biofeedback therapy focused on the SMR can help reduce tics. In one successful case study, a 17-year-old Tourette patient was given EEG biofeedback training with protocols designed to increase SMR and reduce theta, although researchers found that SMR training alone was actually somewhat more effective. The patient experienced a reduction in tics, as well as improved cognitive functioning.

What Is Tourette's Syndrome? 

Tourette's syndrome is a problem with the nervous system that causes people to make sudden movements or sounds, called tics, that they can't control. For example, someone with Tourette's might blink or clear their throat over and over again. Some people may blurt out words they don't intend to say. Treatments can control tics, but some people don’t need any unless their symptoms really bother them. About 100,000 Americans have full-blown Tourette's syndrome, but more people have a milder form of the disease. It often starts in childhood, and more boys than girls get it. Symptoms often get better as children grow up. For some people, they go away completely.

Success Story (Severe Headache)

The following is a case study of a male client, Ahmad Solihin, suffering from severe headache. 

Headache is pain in any region of the head. Headaches may occur on one or both sides of the head are isolated to a certain location, radiate across the head from one point. A headache may be a sharp pain, throbbing sensation or dull ache. Headaches may appear gradually or suddenly, and they may last less than an hour or for several days.Headache is caused by problems with over activity of pain-sensitive structures in the head and it isn't a symptom of an underlying disease, but it could be chemical activity in brain, the nerves or blood vessels of head outside our skull, or muscles of head and neck or some combination of these factors. Some people may carry genes that make them more likely to develop such headaches. However, through Neuro-hypnotherapy and Serumi Ion therapy, this client illustrates a successful recovery. 

Ahmad Solihin, thin, proportioned and nearly 156 cm tall, is a thirty three-year-old Malaysian. He’s been married to his wife for six years.Besides working as a Project Manager, he also continues his study in Consultant Supervisor on a part-time basis. Juggling work and study, however, has been very stressful for him. 

Mr. Solihin’s complaints presented a list of symptoms associated with insomnia. Sharp pains starting from his cervical region to his lower back are also felt. Additionally, he also feels numbness and tingling sensations all over his body. Sleep deprivation, fatigue and loss of concentration, naturally, follows. 

Taking into consideration the severity of his condition with regard to his resistance to treatment; and from a Naturopath’s point of view, the most suitable treatment plan suggested for this desperate gentleman is Serumi Ion and Neuro-hypnotherapy coupled with proper diet, nutrition and lifestyle change. 

After just one session of Serumi Ion and Neuro-hypnotherapy, an increase in energy in his body can be felt and the pain on his neck region has begun to decrease. Not only that, he’s also able to sleep better on the same day. And what follows after his second and third sessions is equally as remarkable – his severe headache disappears completely! 

“One word – unbelievable!” said Mr. Solihin, his eyes gleaming with gladness.

Success Story (Depression and Insomnia - Miss T)

If you think you may have insomnia, ask yourself the following questions:

• Do you wake up during the night and find that you cannot fall back asleep? 
• Do you lie in bed, tossing and turning for hours each night? 
• Do you dread going to bed because you feel like you never get a good night’s sleep? 
• Do you wake up feeling unrefreshed after sleeping? 
• Does the problem occur even though you have the opportunity and the time to get a good night’s sleep? 
• You are suffering from depression?
• It takes you more than 30 mins to fall asleep?

If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions, then you may have insomnia. If you’ve had insomnia for more than three weeks (chronic insomnia), consider booking an appointment with a therapist.
Let's me share a testimonial that I get from my clients, this real story tell you how she improve her insomnia problem after doing her clinical hypnotherapy and EEG biofeedback therapy with me.

.................................................................................................................................................................

My client: T (22 years old), primarily came to see me for her stress issues. She has been diagnosed with depression and was prescribed with the antidepressants as well as sleeping pill by her Psychiatrist. However, She stopped her anti depressant and sleeping pill after using them for 3 weeks as she felt that she could not sleep even with the sleeping pills and she feels a lot more blur and slow in response after the antidepressants.
Her problem has influenced her life since she was young until to the extend that she had to stop herself from continuing her study due to her lack in  focus and emotional issues.
Upon analyzing her unique brainwave patterns and her response toward clinical hypnotherapy, I found that most of her brainwaves pattern (especially those brain locations which associated with focus, logical thinking, verbal expression and attention span) is under-arousal/weak.

Her brainwaves pattern is the reason why she was having problem as below:

1. Depression symptoms
2. Self harmful thoughts
3. Insomnia
4. Bad sleeping quality
5. Negative thoughts
6. Inability to express confidently
7. Poor focus and attention span

Treatment Plan:
A customized self-hypnosis method was planned for her; She was guided on how to do self hypnosis effectively while her brainwaves was monitored. For the first session, 2 hours was spent with her to deal with her depression symptoms, negative thinking and self harmful thoughts issues.

Following is the result obtained:

After the first session, she confessed that it was the first time ever that she felt so calm and relaxed. She complied to practice her customized self hypnosis technique for positive thinking once a day until her next visit.
Two weeks later, the follow up session was carried out.
Following are the changes that she experiences after the 2 weeks practice of self hypnosis:

1. Positive thinking
2. More optimistic
3. More confident to speak
4. Ability to let go of past event
5. Begin to look forward for a better future
6. Less self harmful thoughts
7. Become less anxious and stressful
8. Become relax and calm 
9. Response speed increased

For her 3rd session, her objective is to improve her sleep quality and deal with her insomnia problem so that she can improve her overall life quality as well as her health condition. I guided her to do a customized self hypnosis technique for sleep and following is the result obtained:

During the session, she was able to fall asleep by doing her customized self hypnosis technique for sleep alone! As you can notice her Delta brainwaves for sleep increased after she did her self hypnosis technique (See the red cursor on the graph above) and her Hibeta was decreasing further too.

Upon the completion of the clinical hypnotherapy session, she came back to do EEG biofeedback therapy to improve her attention span and focus issue.
She shared her joy and improvement on the relevant issue. She found the following positive changes in her life after the therapy session:

1. Feel more motivated to live better
2. Easy to wake up in the morning, feeling refreshed
3. More alert 
4. Increase in the respond speed
5. Improvement in sleep quality (Able to sleep by doing customized self hypnosis and without the use of sleeping pill)

Remark:

Before she started the clinical hypnotherapy session, her depression screening test showed a score of 29 (Category: moderate to severe depression). After 3 sessions of clinical hypnotherapy, she now had a score of 9 (Category: none to mild depression).

Success Story (Insomnia - Mdm Wong)

Success Story (Insomnia - Mdm Wong)

I have been having insomnia for the past few months. It is usually triggered by an involuntary jerk during sleep. I do not know the cause of its occurrence, hence underwent MRI and EEG Scanning.

The result from the MRI scanning showed that I had been suffering from slip disc. However that cannot be the cause of my insomnia issue. On the other hand, the EEG scan revealed that I have some unusual spikes near my temporal lobe area.

Upon the release of the result, I decided to try the TCM method. Therefore I signed up for Acupuncture and took on some Chinese medication as well. I also tried physiotherapy; Ultrasound.

I also went to Singapore for further consultation and the doctor revealed that I had neuralgia issue.

Therefore, he recommended me to do laser therapy to stabilize my nerve.  However, I decided not to undergo this process as I was worried about the side-effect that it may cause and the cost was ranging to about RM 20,000.00

Finally my husband convinced me to give a try on Clinical Hypnotherapy. I think it’s not a harm to try and my husband told me that the clinical hypnotherapy that he found was through a website and he choose this therapy because it is convincing, professional and it gives him a sense of confidence.

Although the location was in Kuala Lumpur and we stay in Johor, we didn’t mind to travel weekly for the session since there was a need. The uniqueness about these therapy session was that they actually combine brain trainer with clinical hypnotherapy to deal with my issue. Surprisingly, just after 6 session, my family member and I saw the significant changes in me.

My husband also told me that I became more stable emotionally. No more depression and anxiety. And my behaviour became normal again.

From my personal view, I also found that I became more stable emotionally and had less negative thought. In addition, I also realize that I became more positive now. I am no longer afraid to sleep anymore. This is a significant improvement to me because I can finally experience good sleep again. I have also learnt how to relax and remain calm at night. I managed to do so because the Clinical Hypnotherapist also taught me ‘How to cope with stress, anxiety, and fear by using effective relaxation technique.’

Now, my next goal is to deepen my sleep quality. I will continue to use clinical hypnotherapy, brain trainer and Serumi Ion service to enhance my sleep quality.
