62 year old female patient presented with severe headaches and disorientation
Linda Simon, DC
This patient was treated with gentle Craniopathy to assist her skull and brain in decreasing brain swelling and restoring normal pressure to the cranium. She also underwent a Mayo Clinic head trauma treatment protocol for 6 months. The Mayo treatment ended without resolution of her headaches or restoration of her memory or resolution of her fatigue. Craniopathy treatments continued until her symptoms of headaches, fatigue, memory loss and word recollection improved for the patient to reach Maximum Medical Improvement. TMJ, cervical spine and thoracic spine and ribs were adjusted with a low force adjusting tool. Continuous ultrasound was used on the injured muscles to facilitate healing. This patient was given gentle cervical spine exercises and stretches for her thoracic spine and rib cage.
