She had endured it for years. I learned some easy, non-forceful tricks, treated her over a few months, and she doesn't hurt anymore, except occasionally, and I quickly fix it in one to four minutes time.<BR/><BR/>If your pain and hers is at all similar, I've a book for you. It has a title that may make you wary, but it's not at all scary as it might sound: Spinal Manipulation Made Simple. No forcing and popping, just simple soft tissue techniques that safely bring the spine back into alignment. It would actually require Brandi, or someone else to be willing to read it and apply the techniques to you. Available at Amazon. One of the best purchases I've ever made.<BR/><BR/>It is beautifully written, albeit it is describing movement, and relationships of bone and muscle, and as such is a tough read due to the technical physiological terms. I had to google search diagrams and look up lots of vocab in order to follow along. The book beautifully describes what to do, but translating the words into a mental image of what is being described took me some effort. And it wasn't a read it, do it, done sort of deal. The techniques require developing a feel for the subtle visual and tactile cues that the techniques depend on. For each technique, it took me a few days of trying a few times a day to apply the techniques, while reviewing the book's description to make sure I was understanding the carefully written words. But Karleigh isn't in pain every moment of every day, so it was worth the effort.<BR/><BR/>I plan to eventually write a post on my blog that acts as a companion to the book, defining terms, and providing diagrams necessary for those untrained in physiology to be able to understand the book.Daniel Heywoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05788327842627561538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577715024203800176.post-28879047631785291392009-01-21T20:56:00.000-08:002009-01-21T20:56:00.000-08:00A fascinating glimpse.
