I have been seeing Galina Semyonova since my husband died, when she quickly and successfully treated my pneumonia and brought me back to life at the most difficult time. Her diagnostic equipment is amazingly accurate and her ability to keep her patients health in balance excellent. I see her preventively regularly.

Galina is AMAZING!
As a skeptical person and ignorant of alternative practices..I have to say I'm very impressed with the results of Galina's wide range of knowledge and her use of Vitalgate's equipment.
A food sensitivity test showed information about things I eat that I never told Galina. One of them was I was using Stevia. After one of the tests, she turned to me and said "stop using Stevia" in that I had a sensitivity to it. I followed through with the rest of her instructions and my skin thickness (bloatedness and hardness) went away along with chronic itching. After a few weeks the scale dropped the first time EVER IN 25 years. I have h y p o t h y r o i d i s m and have been thru 4 endocrinologists that have failed to explain why I could not lose weight. The answer was more about my food and mild histamine reaction to the foods I was eating...INCLUDING not having the right digestive enzymes and nutrients in my system. These do now show up in bloodwork.
Galina has succeeded where 4 endocrinologists and a nutritionist failed. I would say she has more insight as to the "Sources" of problems versus treating symptoms. If you are looking for a real scientist with a very open mind...she's the real deal.
Be sure if you do use her services that you follow her instructions to the Tee and make the commitment. My results after 3 months shocked my family. I'm still going and continue with her digestive regimen 9 months later.
As an update, I suffered a fall with a chest contusion and it was so painful with hairline fractures in my lower ribs that I could not get out of bed. After spending 2 days on ice with little improvement Galina put me on one of her bio equipment. Her sessions are very relaxing and put you into a sleep state which allows for optimal healing ...results after an hour and a half was an instant 30% reduction in pain. I returned for 2 more sessions and after 2 weeks after the accident...I'm functioning normally. Some tightness in the area but no longer suffering.
