Q: chiro treatment !!

Just a few words of hope - as a teacher, I have been all but incapacitated w/ tmj symptoms - ear pain, face pain, clicking, teeth don't match, jaw deviation everything..... the pain was making me reclusive... anyway, started chiropractic w/ a guy who does sacral-cranial work and some intraoral work. After 5 sessions, I have 90% improvement. Please don't give up hope. I was quite sure much of mine was muscular in nature - heat and cold works well, too. I am going on vacation for 2 weeks, and will continue working w/ him when I return. Just to have near pain-free hours is UNREAL!!!!!!

What's unreal is that I'm with him only a few minutes - very gentle head manipulation and he does adjust my neck and back. Initially, he did thermal scanning which shows where the muscles are pulling from top to bottom - wow! Anyway, I have read that this cranial/sacal therapy is bunk; I don't know what he is doing, but the improvement is marked!!!! Thnk God - it will be interesting to see what two weeks away from him will do, but this has been such a boon!!
