chest pain and chelation

[Guest guest]

John, Gee, i only wish that i could convince people to come to me for

50 visits at just $60 each. After 1 or 2 sessions we know if what i

do will help. If there is no relief in a few visits, I feel I am

wasting their money. I guess that is just because i dont have an MD

behind my name.....

 

Have you looked into myofascial trigger point therapy to relieve your

chest pain? If the tests are all negative and there is still no

explanation for the pain, it might be referred pain from trigger

points. There are relatively good pictures of referral patterns at

http://danke.com/Orthodoc/outline.html but the best source of info is

to go to a medical library and get a copy of " Myofascial Pain and

Dysfunction " by Drs Janet Travell and David Simons. You will want

Volume 1. Even easier is to go to the book store and get the second

edition of " Fibromyalgia and Chronic Myofascial Pain " by Devin

Starlanyl, open to page 90 -91. Does this look like your Pain???

 

There is a good continuing education for doctors page about trigger

points at http://members.tripod.com/~DrCarol/contEdu/index.htm

 

There is a muscle called the Sternalis that in some people sits on

the sternum and the only thing that it really does is make

cardiologists rich. If this muscle has active trigger points in it

the referred pain is very similar to cardiac chest pain. The

pectoralis muscle also gives referred pain to the chest as do a few

others.

 

Please email me privately if you have any questions, I dont always

get through all my mail on the multitude of groups I am on.

 

I am a Certified Myofascial Trigger Point Therapist and have helped

many people rid themselves of pain that they were told they had to

live with. The biggest problem with this therapy is that there are

not enough of us to go around. Look to my organizations web site to

find someone in your area.
