A better question is "Is Simoncini's baking soda treatment successful?"

What you report may have validity - and I am glad to see that for once you did not push your own website and expensive breathing method books.  HOWEVER, Tulio Simoncini has in my opinion been pretty well documented here in this forum as a shameless self promoter whose success rates have been greatly exaggerated, whose lack of successes have been fatal, who fails to list his educational background or credentials on his own website, and whose witnesses and other proofs have been called into question.

Rather than repeat the same information yet again, simply do a forum search for "Simoncini" and you will see what I am talking about.
