My name is David Franklin and I live in Leeds, United Kingdom. A number of people have asked me to add my story that explains why we established BICOM® UK and to go on and create the largest BICOM® Bioresonance training school outside Germany. The reason for relating this is to hopefully help other people to really research their medical symptoms and fully research all the options available, this includes conventional allopathic medicine and complementary therapy. We respect doctors and the job they do, but unfortunately most have been trained in only one modality and sadly don’t have the time to invest in each patient. This results so often in treating symptoms that appear before them with pharmaceutical drugs and so we begin:
Our Bioresonance story started late 2007 when my wife Sarah became severely ill. She went from being fairly fit and healthy to having to leave work and couldn't even do basic everyday tasks. Doctors had previously prescribed Levothyroxine a few years prior to this, to balance and underactive thyroid and for a few years life was good. However, over time her health started to decline, she could barely even walk, suffered from nausea and headaches, and felt like she was ‘wasting away’. Multiple doctor visits resulted in “you have kids, of course you’re going to be tired” and the typical, “it’s all in your head!” We are brought up to believe that if someone in a white coat and stethoscope says something- we believe them. After looking into Sarah’s symptoms for ourselves we came across a book called “Diagnosis and Management of Hypothyroidism” by Dr Gordon Skinner. Armed with this information I virtually carried Sarah to the doctors.
Our local GP surgery had a very well qualified Doctor in on the day we arrived, who thought it might have been Addison’s disease. We were referred to the hospital for an appointment as soon as they could see Sarah, which turned out to be only two days later. As we got to the hospital, the Endocrinologist took one look at Sarah and he said he was convinced it was Addison’s disease. After multiple tests, we were told to take all the medication home and wait for a call to start taking them, which we received that same afternoon. The great news was that it was caught in time and that Sarah was still alive! We found out later that 90% of diagnosed Addison’s cases are found in autopsies so we were in the fortunate 10%. However, the journey was only just beginning.
Sarah was put on low-dose steroids, which had some side effects, weight-gain, weakened ligaments and muscles, Sarah was only able to walk a short distance before her whole body began to ache.
Prior to our journey, neither of us had any medical experience, so we really relied on Doctors. but we started to look for other options due to the damaging effects of the medication. We had heard of bioresonance as at least 30 or so friends had very good results and told us about it in the past, but when you are in good health you don’t really pay attention. I was very sceptical of any alternative therapies but willing to look into it, I started to look into the science behind it and talked to some manufacturers, I also booked Sarah in for a test and treatment at a local therapist. Our first session seemed strange, it was in someone’s house with family members and he was running well over an hour late. Sarah sat in a chair whilst the therapist sent frequencies to her from his machine and the therapist tested response with a biotensor that moved with the output frequencies, I had not seen anything like it.
The test and treatment lasted about 90 minutes, we did not expect any real treatment for the adrenals but we hoped other stress may be found and treated. The therapist said that he had found Teschovirus which comes from pigs and we didn’t really know what to expect following treatment.
The results were noticed that evening, Sarah used to lie on the couch on an evening, relaxing prior to going to bed, she always struggled to get up and go up the stairs, however, she was able to do this with the pain she normally had – our interest grew further.
I have been very fortunate with my health, only missing about three days work in my entire working life. But during my research I started to get headaches and a pain in my neck, I ignored this as most things go by themselves, however, I started to worry after my cognitive function became impaired. I had to write emails and proposals daily, I’ve never been great at spelling but even spell checkers could not work out what I was trying to write! My memory became bad and I even started to feel mentally and physically lethargic, which wasn’t like me. My father in law suggested I look into Meningitis as it had been in the news. After looking at the NHS website I felt I needed to see the doctor urgently. They got me in on the same day after calling them, however after the blood test came back clear, they didn’t seem overly concerned and asked me to come back if the symptoms became worse. The thing was I had already been suffering for a few weeks and was worried.
I decided that I would go see the same therapist that Sarah had seen, but be a little naughty, as I was still researching this method I asked the therapist if he just did a well man check as I was feeling ok. He started testing me but after 10 minutes he put the biotensor down and said he had found something that there was no way he would let me leave with it. What? Meningococcus! What’s that? I said is that why I have headaches? The shocked therapist explained that it can cause brain swelling and can be fatal. I must say that there was no way he could have known that I had visited the doctor and what my symptoms were. I was impressed but still very sceptical, after 2 hours of therapy I still didn’t feel much different but after 3 days my constant headaches had gone and so had the pain in my neck, a week later all my cognitive function had returned. Call it a fluke, coincidence or whatever, I was convinced that I had to learn more about this.
In all my research most therapists were saying “BICOM” so I decided to call them in Germany. Very shortly I was talking to the International Sales Director. I explained why I was interested and he offered to get on a plane to come and see me, I was overwhelmed by the quality of service and reputation they had, including tens of thousands of case studies. I had a feeling that this would be the company I would represent.
The problem was I had a good business, didn’t want to become a therapist BUT I had to have a BICOM. So I decided to take the offer of becoming the UK agent, I admit – just to get a good discount on my demonstrator unit. I started treating Sarah, then other family members and friends, the results were so interesting that these people started to talk, to the point that I had to start taking notice, this was soon becoming a business that I had not expected would do much. From a zero income, by 2019 we were turning over close to £1000000 in sales and therapy fees, purely built on word of mouth referrals. But more importantly, we were helping many people and winning support from some conventional doctors, surgeons and nurses, even receiving referral clients from them. The testimonials were growing and continue to so, despite people not really liking to advertise their ailments, even if they had improved.
Overtime, Sarah’s health slowly started to improve again. She still had to be careful as to not to overdo it, but we found that through Bioresonance, we were able to treat other stresses that were in her body. Mainly, it helped to alleviate some side effects of the medication she was taking, which also contributed to her general health and wellbeing.
As the business started to pick up, I became busier and busier and struggled to keep up the therapy side of the business, especially for Sarah and family members. Naturally, the clients became priority and it meant that Sarah’s health started to decline slowly again as she was no longer able to receive the weekly treatment she was having beforehand. In 2014, Chris joined the business and became the new face of Reson8, which is the therapy side to our company. This had a huge impact on the business and meant that there could be more attention put into treating patients and it also meant that Sarah could go back to having a weekly treatment again. Which meant her health could begin to improve again. However, things still are on going process, it is not a cure all device but it has improved the quality of Sarah’s life. Each weekly treatment she can tell that it's combating the problems the body is creating, within a day or two can feel the positive results of treatment.
