Marit really doesn't have a large amt. of pain in her joints other

than the back of her head but especially the neck...can't bear any

pressure to the back of her head or neck at all...even very soft

pillows.hates tight collars.becomes very dizzy and nauseated..always

sleeps on the side of her head and has done so from age of 2-3 mos.

old. " Would only settle in that position. Also finds sleeping on

her stomach with head turned to the side helps to compress her

abdomen and help with blood pressure.

If you are reading this Mike, your comments or experience would be

appreciated re the head and neck problem.

-------------------

I have a fair amount of experience with the head and neck,

especially headaches, but this description of symptoms is a new one

for me. Does she get the problems just when pressure is applied or

does she basically have it all the time?

What comes to mind on this is some kind of misalignment in the neck

and back of the head. And I don't mean the kind of misalignment you

think of when you think of a spinal adjustment by a chiro or osteo.

I'm thinking very subtle misalignment of the neck or very subtle

jamming of some of the cranium bones.

Specifically, because of the extremely early onset, it makes me

wonder about possible birth trauma. Did they have to use forceps?

At any rate, what I would suggest you consider is cranialsacral

therapy. It is very gentle and capable of addressing the problem if

subtle misalignments are involved.
