FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why not just wear jewellery?
Wearing large precious stones close to the skin over a long period of time, while safer and more subtle than ingesting powdered gems, can enhance health, however it will take much longer than Electronic Gem Therapy and be far more expensive.

Is EGT dangerous for young children/the elderly?
No. Electronic Gem Therapy is not dangerous to anyone belonging to a specific age bracket. Gem Therapy is a natural form of treatment using light and precious stones, it does not involve any method or instrument that could cause harm to the body.

Does the treatment hurt/leave a mark?
Not at all. In fact, the majority of patients find that having a lie-down under beautifully coloured lamps is extremely therapeutic. At the very most, one will feel a slight warmth, no different to sitting close to a reading lamp. Depending on the nature of the problem, some patients actually feel their pain or discomfort disappearing while they are under the lamps.

What are the side effects?
Apart from the positive healing effects of the lamps, there are no hidden or nasty side effects. Depending on the treatment received, some patients may be advised to drink a glass of water to help hydrate their body after treatment.

What is the youngest age that can be treated?
This can vary depending on the individual’s circumstances but as a general rule, practitioners do not treat a baby under 4 months of age.

Is EGT safe for people fitted with pace makers?
Most therapists may choose not to treat people with pace makers or defibrillators. There is a chance that the energy from the lamps could interfere with these devices.

Can patients prone to epilepsy undergo EGT?
Yes. Several cases of epilepsy have already been treated using diamonds. The lamps do not work on a strobe frequency that can lead to seizure.

Is it safe to drive after receiving treatment?
Yes. However, some patients experience feelings of euphoria or replenished energy or have a desire to sleep following their treatment. This should be borne in mind before embarking on a long journey.

Will EGT treatment inhibit my daily routine/diet in any way?
No, in fact we hope that patients with muscular or arthritic complaints will find quite the opposite! Unless the Therapist has suggested certain medication or change in diet to complement your treatment, there is no reason why the patient cannot continue with life as normal.

Are there any areas of the body that cannot be treated?
No. Electronic Gem Therapy has been used successfully to treat all areas of the body, from feet to eyes, internal organs to skin conditions.

Why should EGT work where other forms of treatment have failed in the past?
Quite simply, Electronic Gem Therapy gets right to the heart of the problem. Most modern medicines will tackle the symptoms in a head-on, aggressive manner. At most, this will often only produce a short-term solution to the problem. Electronic Gem Therapy is a kind and natural way to build up your body’s defences and allow your own immune system to counter the causes of the ailment. One’s own body is far more capable given the opportunity of curing its own injuries or illnesses than most modern medicine prescribed over the counter. Electronic Gem Therapy can be used to stimulate the relevant organs in the body to start or accelerate this natural healing process.

If EGT is so successful, why haven’t we heard more about it in recent years?
Having been invented only 20 years ago, so far as the world of medicine goes, Electronic Gem Therapy is still in its infancy. As with any medical breakthrough, Electronic Gem Therapy has had to undergo years of tests to establish firstly, that it really works and secondly, that it is safe. Subsequently, it is only in the past few months that the National Press has become interested as Electronic Gem Therapy continues to produce one success story after another.

Will the EG Therapist need to see my medical notes/consult my GP?
The Therapist will not have to consult your GP unless your case is particularly complicated. However, it will save time and be of help to your EG Therapist if you can produce a copy of your medical records. As with any medical practitioner, your personal details, records and treatments will be kept confidential and handled with discretion.

Can home visits be arranged for severely disabled patients?
This will depend on the individual’s circumstances and the discretion of the Practitioner. Home visits are not easy due to the cumbersome nature of the equipment. However, such cases will always be reviewed on their merits.

How many treatment sessions will I need?
There can be no guarantees as to how many treatments will be required. Some ailments have been cured or significantly eased in as few as one or two visits. Patients who have more serious or long-term complaints may find that several treatments are necessary before any improvement is evident.

How long must I wait between appointments?
The normal recommended time between treatments is at least seven days. This gives the body a chance to start the healing process and adapt to the new source of energy that is revitalising it.

Can EGT be used to treat animals?
Yes. However, until Veterinary Practices start to use Electronic Gem Therapy, current practitioners may or may not agree to treat animals. This is mainly due to hygiene issues and the fact that clinics are kept spotlessly clean solely for the use of human patients. Individual practices will have their own policies on this. Secondly, the nature of Electronic Gem Therapy requires that the patient remain in a constant position over several minutes. Most therapists would agree that this is hard enough with young children without the added complication of treating animals!
