Frequently Asked Questions
Question: I had a car accident 3 years ago, my wife claims my personality has changed. I have less tolerance for my children, decreased sexual interest, sleep more, lose my way when driving and even read with difficulty when I used to have none, why?
Answer: I have had many patients who have either fallen, been involved in car accidents or have been hit directly in the head describing the same symptoms. The AMA has stated no head injury is to be considered minor any longer and a major head injury is anyone who loses consciousness. Head injuries can take many years to heal. Neuropsychological evaluations can help to pinpoint the area of the brain affected. Treatment should include craniosacral therapy for mobilization of the head bones and tailbone as well to take tension off of neurological structures.
It only takes the weight of a hair to impede the conduction of a nerve. Fascial restrictions can create a force of 2,000 lbs. per square inch. The head houses many sensitive nerve tissues and does not require a direct blow to be injured. Whiplash of the head can cause the brain to bounce off the inside of the skull and become injured. I have seen miracles happen when combining homeopathy with head injury and coma recovery.
Question: I am having interstitial cystitis and bilateral hip pain. The only history I have is a fender bender and a female surgery, years ago. Is there hope for me? I want to have children but am afraid of making symptoms worse.
Answer: Old injuries leave there prints in the fascia and an abortion can be seen by the body as and injury as can any surgical procedure. When the fascia is distorted it puts pressure on all structures in the region. Muscle will shorten as a protective mechanism. Myofascial release of the pelvic floor and the hips as well as the lumbar and sacral areas can help both problems at the same time. Not only can these two problems be eliminated but you will be in a healthier state to have a baby.
