		<description>Reiki is great if it is used in the correct way to work directly on conditions. There are loads of Reiki resources on the website of myself and my partner 

&lt;em&gt;URL's removed by Ron.  I checked the site and it is a business site.  I wish you well in your endeavours but I don't want my blog used by people to promote their business interests.&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Hi Ron, I was a sceptic about Reiki but tryed it out anyway. My girlfriend did send me to a practice in Marylebone.  The service was professional and made me feel great afterwards. I turned in to a believer. All the best Hutch</description>

		<description>Hi Ron,&lt;br /&gt;
Another 'ask the oracle' question. How practical is counselling over the phone?&lt;br /&gt;
Martin&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Ron writes:&lt;/strong&gt;  'the oracle' - Martin what are you like!!&lt;br /&gt;
Structured telephone counselling (ie 50 min session at an agreed time each week) is becoming a common practice in agencies such as Childline, &#38; other helplines.  Some clients seem to prefer it for practical reasons as well as not having to sit 'face to face' with someone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Online counselling is also becoming popular (I did a course on it last year)  </description>

		<description>Hi Ron &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
thanks again for taking the time to do the live chat on monday.. your experience has given me an insight into whats going on with my body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I had a docs appointment today, to discuss managing the sides i've experienced in the 1st two weeks of treatment, and was stunned when my GP suggested I come off the treatment immediately. I had gone to see him since my emotions were kinda 'haywire' and i had hardly slept for the past few days. I got the distinct impression that he felt i was a drug user looking for some sort of 'fix', he actually said that he felt he was being 'blackmailed' into giving me sleeping pills!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So tonight i'm having trouble deciding where to go now.. I left the Gp's office in disgust but i see my nurse tomorrow so i hope things are a bit more positive.. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
anyway the point is i was wondering if you had any bad experiences with healthcare workers who assume that you must be hepc+ due to injecting drugs? I am still pretty angry at the fact i have hepc since i have no idea how i contracted the virus, and this experience today has set me back somewhat.. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
take care&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alan&lt;br /&gt;

Have just noticed you have started a weblog - been to read it - now going back to leave a comment and to add it to the list of blogs on the right side of this screen!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All the best&lt;br /&gt;
