1st point: This treatment is by mental adjusting, it is unique as people are seldom cured using this method as they have had this phobia since young
2nd point: Applying tension just means something like massaging; this will increase blood pressure, so that they would get more fresh air and remain calm
3rd point: Pacemaker is a small machine that is fixed inside someone’s chest in order to make them have a regular heart beat, which will help them to prevent hyperventilation and fainting

Flowers- It is the replacement of a pacemaker, with the rhythm of the songs. It is disguised so that the children would not be constantly reminded that they have an illness
Tree house- Psychological treatment with all their dreams written on it
