Julius Roth Foundation
Case studies
Baby Peter
Baby Peter was 5 months old when his case was referred to the Foundation. His
mother takes up the story.
"I was desperate, Peter didn't sleep, he scratched - nothing helped. The
creams we applied seemed to make him worse and he was on antibiotics because his skin was
infected.
When my doctor recommended the Julius Roth Therapy Programme, I was a bit sceptical at
first but a friend also recommended them.
The improvement was beyond belief, I can't thank the Julius Roth Foundation enough for
what they've done. He doesn't scratch and sleeps at night, life is wonderful."

Child G
Child 'G' was referred to the Foundation, when he was seven years old, by his doctor. The boy had suffered from atopic eczema from the age of 13 months.
The child's family lived some distance away so we treated him by 'Distance Therapy', that
is to say, without actually seeing him.
We ask all parents to complete a 'Diagnostic and Therapy Chart', this gives us a history
of the child's condition and other valuable information. In this document the boy's mother
informed us that steroid creams had only partially controlled the eczema which now covered
large areas of his body. In a telephone conversation with us, his mother described the
boy's life as 'hell'. He had to be carried from room to room as it was too painful for him
to walk. His bed sheets were often bloodied. She also expressed concern at the possible
effects of steroids used on a long-term basis.
After studying the completed 'Diagnostic and Therapy Chart' we sent several preparations
for 'patch-testing. These substances are actually some of the active ingredients we may
use in therapy and we need to check for possible allergic response. When the mother
returned the completed 'patch-test' form, we then formulated a therapy bath additive and
therapy cream, with clear instructions as to how to use them.
After 60 days of therapy the mother contacted the Foundation enclosing photographs of her
son's skin both before and after the therapy.

The improvement is significant with only a little redness remaining at the wrists and
ankles. At this stage, intensive therapy was reduced, gradually. The boy has now been free
of eczema for 24 months. In general, the Foundation's success rate is high where parents
adhere to our protocol and co-operate in the control of allergens.
