Statistics & Indications 

Indications and results of Brachy-Myotherapy

The effects of Brachy-Myotherapy on more than 60 diseases have been studied by more than 150 physicians with about 3000 patients. 
The following studies have been made by MD's still being trained in Brachy-Myotherapy . 
Some may think that the results are too good to be true... We understand them, results nowadays being often disappointing and long to optain, but the goal is to show that new and better possiblities exist. We would rather say that the results are too good to be false anyway too many Medical Doctors have participed to imagine such and eventually. The same protocol has been followed for all the statistics: the therapists has noted the results of Brachy-Myotherapy  on all his patients comming for the studied disease between Such and such date. These patients have been treated by Brachy-Myotherapy  only (exept contre-indications). 
When treatment did not improve the patient  any more, or if he was cured or if it has no effect he was classified as cured (no symptom in any circonstance, without need of any treatment). 
Better: Brachy-Myotherapy  had real effects but no enough to cure the patient. 
Failure: Brachy-Myotherapy  had no effect at all or nearly no effect.
