Lila: From IBS, near-daily migraines and chronic pain to pain-free and thriving

I was suffering from IBS flare-ups and chronic pain throughout my body. I had gone to doctor after doctor, and got scan after scan but they all came back healthy. None of the doctors I saw could help or even diagnose me – no one could understand where my almost daily migraines were coming from or the chronic pain I was feeling, and as for the IBS, I was told to live with it.

After months of these migraines I couldn’t take it any more and thought ‘there has to be a way to fix this!’ So I decided to look for other ways to help my body. I consulted Robyn because I had seen her articles on the Sydney Vegan Club’s email newsletter and I was intrigued with how I could heal my body through my food. I wanted someone who could give me advice from a vegan perspective and without medication.

As a result of working with Robyn, I haven’t had a single migraine in over 5 months; I don’t even get headaches any more! My IBS has settled down, and I am no longer in any pain! It’s quite amazing.

I think even though the food knowledge was very useful, what I actually took away from our sessions the most was how much my mind controls the reactions within my body and how much more power that gave me to stop these reactions.

After all of my frustrating encounters with doctors, I really appreciated Robyn’s willingness to listen, to not brush off my symptoms, to recognize that they are a problem – a problem that had taken over my life – and her reassurance that with patience they were fixable.

If you’re in pain, I would highly recommend that you consult Robyn as she will be able to get you off taking medication for the rest of your life and show you the amazing ability your body has within itself to heal itself!

Thanks Robyn for your time, and your belief that I could get better, there was a way out!
