Susie Cornell, The Cornell Centre @ Spring Health Leisure Club fake bioresonance therapist, diagnoses all her clients with candida, sells them the sa
17th of Oct, 2011 by User223133
I was first told about bioresonance therapy by my TM (Transcendental Meditation) teacher after it helped 2 people he knew recover from illnesses when the NHS failed them. I was referred to Susie Cornell by another bioresonance therapist in Oxford. I was encouraged to see from her web site that she specialised in MS, which was the illness I was trying to overcome, and was very experienced in using e-lybra bioresonance therapy. I e-mailed her my medical history and talked to her over the phone. She sounded very nice and said her secretary Karen would call me to arrange a consultation. I booked an appointment for that Friday. About 15 mins later Karen called me back and told me that the cost would be £130, not £83. I asked her why and she said that the cost of an MS consultation was higher because it was "more detailed and comprehensive". I felt I had no choice but to accept because I was desperate for help. Nowhere on the web site does it list the higher price consultation and I later discovered that it comprised nothing different to the cheaper one. That was the 1st ripoff/scam. Susie told me that she'd had MS for 37 years. I assumed that her methods which she claimed were so successful had kept her symptom free, so I was horrified to arrive in Chelmsford and discover that she had a mobility problem too and couldn't walk any better than me! When I got there I needed to use the toilet, but was unable to gain access to the disabled one because Susie was in there herself with Karen waiting outside to escort her back to the office. I, the client, was instructed to use the ordinary ladies' toilet because the disabled one was occupied by the practitioner I'd come to see to help me recover from the same illness she obviously couldn't help herself recover from! Hardly a great start and I was already beginning to lose faith in her methods before I'd begun. My inclination was to turn around and leave, but my friend, who had driven hours from Buckinghamshire to pick me up and take me there, said we were there now, so we might as well stay. Susie took a sample of my hair, put a plastic device around my neck + attached 2 plastic wristbands to me to connect me to the machine. The 1st thing she told me was that I had a problem with my right leg - hardly a revelation because a) I'd already told her about my mobility problem in that leg and b) she'd seen it when I entered her office! She told me that the main cause of my condition was systemic candida and recommended a probiotic called Ecobalance and a really stringent anti-candida diet that cut out practically every food in the universe. It was so restrictive it was insane - yes it might kill the candida off, but following it would likely starve you so much nutritionally that it would kill you off too! Plus I later read that even if you did manage to follow the diet, the candida would just feed off sugar from your blood cells anyway and the only way to combat that was death! Susie also told me that I had a vitamin D deficiency and an underactive thyroid for which she recommended kelp. This was subsequently proved false after I took my oral and underarm temperatures for 10 days in the mornings. I later realised that the systemic candida diagnosis was highly coincidental as a) Susie's background was in nutrition, b) it was her "bugbear" and she'd written articles about it, and c) she just happened to have all the supplements on site to sell me. She also sold me an e-pendant for £16 which I had to wear round my neck and keep under the pillow at night, and which was supposed to heal me remotely. Add to all this an MS exercise CD, and the final bill was £226 - and apparently this was only the 1st layer with more sessions to follow!! Susie said that it could take a year to get rid of the candida and even then only if I abstained completely from sugar, not to mention just about every other food on this planet, with lots of follow-up sessions in between of course. She also distorted the meaning of multiple sclerosis saying that it meant multiple causes and multiple layers. This is untrue - it actually means multiple scars and can have just one cause, but I guess that would mean less money for her. Susie claims to be able to administer bioresonance therapy remotely, wherever you are in the universe. Well if it works as well as her e-pendant didn't, forget that! A month later I was no better and she got snappy at me when I told her as if it was my fault that her methods weren't working for me. She said "What do you want me to do?" What did I want her to do? Well that was obvious, wasn't it? Make me better of course! I continued to feel worse and then one Friday, which I now call Black Friday, I woke up to discover that I'd had another neurological attack in my sleep. I felt flu-like, feverish and drugged, and had extreme bladder weakness/urgency and loss of strength in my legs and core trunk so badly that I was unable to lift myself off the floor. I thought I was going to have to call an ambulance and go into hospital as I wasn't even able to raise myself on to the toilet, bed or a chair. I also leaked all the way to the toilet and ended up going on the floor. I felt SO ill and was apparently as white as a sheet and looked like I was at death's door. When I stopped taking Susie's supplements and eliminated them from my bowel, my body returned to normal. The crux came when Susie sent me her testimonials/client success stories and I REALISED THAT SHE'D TOLD EACH & EVERY ONE OF THEM THE SAME THING, IE THAT THE CAUSE OF THEIR ILLNESS WAS SYSTEMIC CANDIDA, REGARDLESS OF THEIR DIAGNOSIS, AND HAD RECOMMENDED THE SAME SUPPLEMENT (ECOBALANCE) & RESTRICTIVE ANTI-CANDIDA DIET!! I wrote to Susie and asked for a refund or I said I would post a report on this site. In response she sent me fake automated e-mails pretending she was going to be away from the office for 2 weeks - surprise surprise, she was in work the next day for which Karen made a pathetic excuse. She also ignored my e-mails, refused to take my phone calls, pretended to be a human answering machine to avoid me when I called and she answered, and switched on an answering machine facility which wouldn't allow me to leave a message. In addition, her husband called and left nasty, abusive and threatening messages for me, forbidding me to have anything further to do with the Cornell Centre. Susie Cornell is a RIPOFF & A MONEY-MAKING SCAM. She preys on innocent & desperate people and I urge you not to use her services.
