Guest guest Posted April 26, 2004 Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 Mike - you asked a couple posts ago about if I'd worked with anyone else that could feel the energy - answer is yes. Last Friday I did the shoulder release on a friend and she could 'feel something' I used to do my own version of cranial sacral (remember I have no training and am only doing what has been done to me - so I sorta make it up as I go) on my daughter who was having a lot pain from TMJ - she could often feel the energy. I've done unwinding (again, only the preliminary since I've had no training) on my family and they've all 'felt something'. Whiplash question - Rebekah has accomadative insufficiency, she also grinds her teeth, has mild tmj problems from time to time and looks out of the top of her eyes (i.e., she tilts her head down.) Anyway, I was wondering what the typical whiplash pattern is - the chiro often says she has a typical whiplash pattern - she adjusts it, but - of course, adjustments don't stick. So I'm thinking that of course the adjustments don't stick, our ligaments won't hold them and the muscles just keep pulling them back out. I know she has tight SCM and scalenes - she has a reverse curve in her neck. My current thought (and what I'll be investigating over the next week) is if the muscles are pulling her neck out of it's natural curve, pulling on other muscles in her jaw and eyes? This could be a long term thing - when she was a couple weeks old, she was strapped into her car seat with the handle up and sitting on a counter - the car seat fell off the counter and onto the floor, car seat bounced on the handle and ended by sitting upright on the floor. She didn't even cry. My theory is she got whiplash from this, which set up trigger points and could also have some nerve impingement. Of course I realize that whiplash is a pretty easy injury to get and it could have happened at numerous other times. I'd like to use a combo of acupressure, trigger point therapy and polarity/energy (what is the correct term?) and see if I can get some of it cleared up. Of course it doesn't help her neck muscles that she plays violin - but the downward head tilt has been there a long time. (Have I posted this before or just thought about it that much) I've also been curious to the relationship between whiplash/nerve problems and dyslexia - which she also has. Any ideas and/or musings you have would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
