Dear
Jason,
I highly
recommend Jason Eldridge to anyone who has a vested interest in
the health and wellbeing of their body... that pretty much covers
everyone! After a prolonged bout with pan ulcerative colitis, I've
been given life-long tools to heal my own body. With Jason's assistance
I've been able to find a balanced vibrancy, and feel in control
of a medically 'unmanageable disease'. I now have tools I can use
myself when I'm sick, without his assistance. Thanks Jason! Your
help inspires my faith in the healing arts.

Dear
Ally,
I had
been dealing with a case of eczema recently for the first time in
my life.
Having not had it before I wasn't sure what to do. It got so bad
that I was unable to sleep well and had been leaving large marks
on my body from all the scratching.
I visited
my GP, who gave me some medicine that masked the eczema and made
it go away. The problem was that when I stopped taking the medication
the eczema came straight back.
After
a while it got really bad again. I was then referred to Ally by
a friend.
I must admit I was skeptical at first.
After our initial consultation Ally created a customised detox diet
and specialist herbal mixes.
After a matter of weeks my skin had totally cleared up. Furthermore
I learnt a lot about the effects that some foods have on my skin
and have adjusted my diet accordingly.
I found
Ally to be a warm , approachable and knowledgeable naturopath. She
took the time to talk to me about my consumptions habits in and
effort to determine the real cause of the problem. And it worked.
I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to find a natural
solution.

Dear
Jason ,
My
neighbour has had colitis for as long as me...we got it at the same
time & have been on very different paths with our symptoms &
approaches to dealing with it..he has been in hospital for 2 weeks
now, the same ward I was in at Geelong, rising to horrible flashbacks
and terrible memories...today they are removing 75% of his colon,
he's coming home with the stoma & bag & some time in the
next 12 months will go back for reconstructive surgery...this was
my reality 2 years ago, almost to the day...it makes me fully appreciate
the very different situation I am in now, drug free, healthy &
back at work.
THANK
YOU for your unwavering support, love, advise, & expertise.
I write this so you will know how very grateful & lucky I am
to have you, who have played such a large part in my health &
recovery..I am thankful for what you have done for me each &
every day...Thanks again for everything...All my love

Dear
Jason,
I have
written this testimonial to let others know the massive changes
herbal medicine can have on people suffering from Migraine Headaches.
I have
suffered from painful Migraine headaches for over 5 years. I would
have a migraine almost every day of the week. The triggers were
endless and I consumed such a large amount of painkillers that my
body eventually stopped responding to off the shelf painkillers.
I consulted a Neurologist and was put on serious daily preventative
medication. This medication affected my body severely, causing many
side effects.
I felt
trapped into continuing with this medication as it reduced my headaches
to only 1-2 per week.
When
my body stopped responding to western medicine I needed a new solution.
Jason's practice has been incredible in improving my health. I started
taking a mixture of herbal medicines and slowly weaned myself off
the strong drugs I had been taking. In a period of three weeks whilst
taking the herbal medicines and adjusting my diet I found myself
free of headaches and able to do such activities as sitting in the
sun at the beach (which I previously could not do)
The
power of naturopathic advice and herbal medicines in the treatment
of Migraines was astounding for me, and I am so happy to be free
of western drugs for good.
Thanks
Jason, your advice and treatment has made such a difference to my
life.
Dear
Ally,
I
went to see Ally because I had no energy, I was always hungry (and
always eating, especially sweet things) and my skin was dull and
itchy. From the information I provided Ally was able to summarise
my health concerns accurately and set about supporting me to make
small changes to make a difference to my health. Taking the herbs
I was prescribed and making the changes to my diet, I felt a change
within days. Just two days later I no longer felt hungry all the
time and by the end of the first week my skin was no longer itchy.
After a few more weeks I had lost a few kilos as I wasn't eating
the sweet food I had been craving and generally felt much better,
with more energy at the end of the day.
I
would highly recommend anyone interested in using naturopathy to
see Ally. She is realistic, honest and easy to chat to.

Dear
Jason,
It
would be difficult for me to overestimate the impact Rayid has had
upon my life over the past six years. Rayid opened me to spirituality,
in turn transforming my perspective of life. Moreover, Rayid iridology
engendered a deeper, far more nuanced understanding of myself and
others.
I suffered
quite debilitating depression for years. Fundamentally, I experienced
deep darkness, shame and guilt at the core of my being that nothing
extraneous could alleviate. Such a state perpetuates a downward
spiral, creating a state of almost martyrdom, whereby happiness
feels undeserved. Eventually, in the hope of transforming my inner
world, I decided to practice Rayid meditation, and I have been fortunate
to experience some extraordinary internal shifts.
On
the whole, I feel far happier, more grounded, and emotionally balanced.
I am earnestly grateful for what I have, instead of yearning for
more. I used to feel that spirituality was somehow nihilistic, denying
real embodied involvement in the world in favour of detachment.
However, I have found the opposite to be true. Life feels rich,
rewarding, and almost magical, instead of blighted by pain, worry
and dissatisfaction. I am very grateful to the Rayid practitioners
for their hard work and dedication, especially Jason Eldridge and
Denny Johnson.

Dear Jason,
Every goal I had when I first saw you in September 2005 has been
achieved. From lactose intolerance management, to general well being
to managing Polystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and increasing my fertility
to start our family.
After taking the fertility tonic in December 2005, was successfully
preganant January 2006 gave birth to a beautiful healthy daughter.
It was time to plan our second child, and so I took that "magical
fertility tonic" in June 2007 and remarkably July 2007 was
successfully pregnant again with our second miracle!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, your dedication and patience
is undeniably brilliant.
Thanks for helping me make my dream come true of starting a family.
Regards,
Marie.
Dear
Ally,
I
am very happy with the way you treat me as a patient.
You look after all aspects of one's life and try to find the perfect
balance within each individual's limitations and abilities.
I have tried other solutions before but until I have met you nothing
had worked.
After I started to see you I lost 9 kilos in 7 weeks.
I feel better, faster, smarter and healthier.

Dear
Jason,
In
December 2007 my doctor informed me that I had a PSA reading of
144 and I was subsequently diagnosed with inoperable prostate cancer.
Having spent the last six years of my corporate career working for
a drug discovery company that experience had convinced me that chemotherapy
and radiation was not for me. The alternative was clearly a holistic
approach.
Our
first consultation was immediately before Christmas 2007 and I was
immediately warmed by your approach that this was to be a journey
for both of us. And not only was it about how you could help me,
but also the additional therapies available from other practitioners
that you believed would compliment the programme which you outlined.
Your
introduction to Rayid meditation brought a reassuring calm to my
treatment and a new dimension to my health and wellbeing. Your continuing
counsel and constant encouragement has made the experience enormously
enriching and you have given me a number of tools to explore my
spirituality and purpose.
And
the immediate reward - the news that my PSA was down to 1.2 just
9 weeks after diagnosis. Clearly there is still a long way to go
but you have given me the positiveness to face the future with confidence.
I am immensely grateful to you.
Sincerely
Stuart
Dear
Jason,
I write
this letter as a testimonial for your records, website and any other
use you may find. I felt that a letter would be more personable
than simply writing a testimonial, as it is hard enough to put into
words how much you have helped me and mean to me.
I feel
that I have suffered from anxiety and bouts of mild depression (and
certainly weight problems) for most of my teenage and adult life.
In the second half of 2004, I thought that I was in a major rut
and couldn't really keep it together. Thinking it was just the pressures
of life, I sought help through a psychologist and was diagnosed
with severe depression. After a few sessions, and with me being
so far gone I was contemplating suicide, she advised that it might
be a good idea to start taking anti-depressant medication, such
as Prozac or Zoloft. This did not sit well with me, for some reason,
but I knew that I had to do something more than what I already was…
It was then that I contacted you.
Even
though we do not live in the same State, you were able to diagnose
me, through questionnaires and telephone conversations, and came
up with a few suggestions and alternatives to "main-stream"
medications. I followed your advice, and received a rather foul
tasting herb mixture in the mail, which I'm sure you tasted yourself
before you sent it, as well as some other natural supplements. You
also looked at my "diet" and provided some smart, relatively
easy, nutritional guidelines.
These
things, coupled with the other work I was doing on myself, provided
a very speedy recovery. It was so speedy that my psychologist was
amazed at just how fast I became well again.
As
I mentioned before, I also suffer with weight problems, which you
have also helped me out with. I was carrying at least an extra 20
kgs and am happy to say that, since following further nutritional
advice and affirmations, concentrating more on losing weight and
keeping it off than before, I have lost half of the total weight
I would like and, more importantly, am keeping it off. I am feeling
much better about myself and moving around easier than before. I,
like many others, have tried several different diets and even though
I have lost weight before, I have been unable to maintain it and
keep it off. I will continue to follow your advice as it seems to
actually work.
As
you can imagine, my depression and low self-esteem, affected my
relationship with my partner and we have been through some very
trying times. But, we made it through, thanks to your advice and
guidelines, and have recently become engaged and are both very happy.
I am
not ashamed of my illness and share my stories with many people,
hoping that it will help somebody else should they, or someone they
know, be suffering from a mental illness. I always recommend you
to my friends and acquaintances, whether they live in Melbourne,
Brisbane or somewhere else.
Congratulations
on moving your practice to bigger and better premises. I trust your
patients are loyal and smart enough to follow you there.
I thank
you again, Jason, you are a true healer.
All
my love and respect.

Dear
Ally,
I
am writing to recommend Naturopathic Care (Alessandra Izzo) to any
potential client.
I
have had the need to see a naturopath for many years now to cure
a condition I acquired while travelling third world countries many
years ago.
After
years of seeing a traditional Doctor prescribing antibiotic after
antibiotic and being referred to specialists who could not cure
my condition, I finally did some research on the net and found Naturopathic
Care.
I
found their web sight to be very professional and informative giving
me the confidence to ring and make an appointment.
After
spending an hour with Ally, she was confident she could cure my
condition and prescribed appropriate medication, which fixed a condition
I had suffered from for many years.
Not
being a person to follow instructions when taking medications, this
time after meeting Ally I had so much faith and confidence in her
seeing how healthy she looks a true advocate for her own products
and a healthy life, I took every tablet prescribed happily.
I
have been so happy with Naturopathic Care I have had their help
in helping my son, and will recommend them to all my friends.
I
live in Tasmania but am very happy to see Ally in Melbourne knowing
I have found a practitioner I have confidence in who knows what
they are talking about.
