'Embarrassing Bodies’' - Channel 4 programme

Wednesday 16 April 2008 9:47 AM

Peter J. Bannister M.I.B.

Trichologist Peter Bannister has acquired an enviable reputation in the natural treatment world for his pioneering work with patients suffering with debilitating hair and skin disorders. Initially a hairdresser by trade, Peter recognised the frustration of many of his clients who struggled to find effective treatment for their conditions.

Now Peter is taking his treatments to the wider public with his appearances on the Channel 4 programme Embarrassing Bodies at 9pm on Thursday 1st May. On Thursday’s programme, Peter takes one of the four balding patients, Rob, who suffers from Androgenetic Male Pattern baldness. Male relations on both sides of Rob’s family lost their hair so the prognosis was not good. However, even after only a short period of treatment with Peter, Rob’s hair loss has reduced and the short, weak hair that was dying appears to be recovering and growing stronger. Microscopic examination under polarised light on the initial consultation and again three months later confirmed that there has been a 50% improvement.

Peter's treatment of hair and skin is based on a natural approach called La Biosthetique ® (Biosthetics®) in which particular essential oils are applied to acupressure points to alleviate and control the underlying causes of the disorder and allow systems within the scalp to function normally. Peter has over twenty years experience helping patients to lead more comfortable lives, many of whom had been told that nothing could be done to improve their condition.
