Whitianga resident Derek Collier is a long time sufferer of psoriasis and arthritis. Over the years, he has been able to soak in The Lost Spring water. He has this to say:
I have been privileged to have experienced the therapeutic values of The Lost Spring in it conceptual days. As a long time sufferer of psoriasis and the often associated condition of arthritis, Alan as a friend invited me to take a dip in the mineral waters of The Lost Spring when he first got water from the ground back in 1989.
Since then The Lost Spring has been through many ups and downs. But when ever Alan has had water in a pool or even a polythene lined hole in the ground he has generously offered me the opportunity to soak in it.
The benefits are instantaneous. The relief from the deep aching joint pain, that any arthritis sufferer knows so well, is so immediate and soothing it can’t be described. As a long time sufferer of full body psoriasis you forget what it is like to have smooth normal skin. After an hour soak in the mineral waters of The Lost Spring your skin is so smooth and soft you find it hard to believe it’s really yours.
The surroundings at The Lost Spring has improved dramatically over the last two decades, but the quality of the water and the benefits it gives to people such as myself, is something that can’t be improved on. You have to experience it to believe it. Through the dream and dedication of one man and his many followers, I am sure a lot more people will too.
Thank you Alan, from the bottom of my heart. |
