If it is chronic, massage and exercise are the best treatments I

know. Strong abdominal muscles can help. Yoga can help. Massage

of the psoas and trochanter muscles can help. If it hurts in the

back--buttocks, working on CSx can help. Check out the muscle

meridian chart in Donna's book. Sue

I think that Doc La has covered this a couple of times in the

archives.

And if that fails, find a good chiropractor.

 

Maybe find a chiropractor first - then you'll feel like exercising

Not too long ago I asked myself, " what would Edgar Cayce say? " The

answer came back: go to an Osteopath (Mr. Cayce recommended

chiropractors too, just not nearly as frequently). So I went to a

chiropractor, for manipulation. Then another, and another... When I

asked again, I got the same answer: OSTEOPATH. " But they're all just

like M.D.s now... " Then there was an article in the newspaper that

gave the State Osteopathic Medical Associations' website, and said

something about how a small percentage of D.O.s specialize in

Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy. " whatdayaknow, I can find an

Osteopath after all... "

 

Then I met a smart M.D. who'd just written a book (Dr. Robert Zieve,

Healthy Medicine), and told him how I was looking for an osteopath who

did manipulation. He asked a couple of questions ( " why? " ), then said,

" KW's the only one [local], and whenever _I_ need an osteopath, I go

to SD in [big city 100 miles away] " .

 

After a pair of visits that week and the next with a local Osteopath

(not KW) who did classic-OMT (Andrew Still's style, without Dr.

Sutherland's 'cranial' contribution), I decided to look up this 'SD'

guy, and gave him a call. What's funny is that his home-office is 1

mile from my Grandfather's place, and 1/2 mile from where I used to

live. Anyways...

 

After a couple of visits, I realized that I was more screwed up than I

ever could have possibly imagined. Progress has been agonizingly slow

(I thought I'd be done in a visit or two, hah!), but I think we're

almost done releasing all the trauma that's been stored in my body for

.... all of this life. Last time SD said, " I think you'll do well this

week " , that " when I first started working with you, your head was like

a disorganized bag of sand. " (hmm? " that wasn't good " ).

 

Of course, I've been looking for an osteopath all my life, but I only

found SD after getting my disconnected Grid point taken care of (which

was a mind-blowing experience in-and-of-itself), and getting the

" tributaries " & " Star Fish " pattern done afterwards (see

innersource.net for practitioner listings). And getting my damaged

heart chakra & beltline flow attended to first helped the Osteopathic

Manipulation 'work' better. (cross-confirmation of Energy Medicine

and Osteopathic technique!). I consider Energy Medicine just as

important as Osteopathic Manipulation - they're just two different

tools (among many). Sometimes you need one, sometimes the other, and

if you're screwed up as much as I was, Both.

Jim -

 

Yes! Interesting, isn't it?

 

All sorts of stuff gets held in muscles and joints - and then your

back/neck/ sacrum goes out.

 

So - if you " stack " therapies -- the results are so much faster.

 

I got rear-ended about a month ago - $5,000 damage on my car. The

fellow managed to hit me twice, trying to avoid hitting my car. I

thought I was fine -- I'm fairly fit and flexible. But, my the middle

of my back held on to : WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT???!!!

 

So, I've been mixing EFT, energy medicine, Tatana's energy dancing with

chiropractic sessions to pull it all out and stabilize. Which reminded

me -- that's the place in my back where my hyper- vigilance resides

and I needed to work on it anyway.*

As I understand it, trauma tends to get stored in the fascia, the

body's connective tissue.

 

" Fascia is the organ of posture. Nobody ever says this; all the talk

is about muscles. Yet this is a very important concept...especially

the anatomy of fascia. The body is a web of fascia. A spider web is in

a plane; our body's web is in a sphere. We can trace the lines of that

web to get an understanding of how what we see in a body works. " -Dr.

Ida P. Rolf

 

(I did get some rolfing, 4 or 5 years ago... didn't do much for me,

but some people like it.)
