I fell on the sidewalk and damaged my ankle and knee. My ankle was the main problem as it twisted when I fell. I visited my chiro 5 times however he was not able to fix my ankle. I was still limping after 5 months. My chiro recommeded I get a scan of my ankle so we could see what was going on. By chance I saw a cranio-sacral therapist and told her about my fall. She worked on my ankle and during the session I could feel the heat Radiating from my ankle. I had no expectations of this working as I had been limping for 5 months. Three days after my session I noticed less soreness and stiffness. One week later my ankle was 70% better. By the end of the second week my ankle was back to normal, no pain, no stiffness, no limping. I never went for the scan as one session of cranio-sacral fixed my problem. I'm very happy to have discovered this therapy.

Craniosacral Therapy for Migraines

In reply to Craniosacral Therapy. I have bad migraines and when I worked for my Chiropractor, he had a patient that was a retired Chiropractor that was a trained Craniosacral Therapist. He asked me one day if I would allow him to treat my migraine just as a favor to me. I had had it for a week and nothing would relieve the pain at all. I was a zombie from the pain, so I quickly agreed to let him treat me. He manipulated the bones in my skull and I could feel the headache gradually ease as he adjusted each different area. He totally relieved my headache! He would periodically treat me when he came in for an adjustment himself. I no longer work there so I do not have access to him anymore. I have gone to a few people who claim to be trained but I have gotten no reliev from them like I did this gentelman. I wish I could find him again because he is the only one that has given me total instant relief of these types of headaches.

If you can find someone who is good at doing the manipulating, it will work for you. I haven't been treated for any other conditions with it, so cannot say anything about the effectiveness but I'm sure it would help. The bones do not have to move much. I'm sure it is minimal, since there isn't much move room between the bones anyway. This man would feel the pulse and make sure that it was the same on both sides. He said that was very important. So make sure your therapist is checking for that as well.

Remedies Needed for Equilibrium Imbalance After Fall

Della (Riverside, California /usa) on 01/04/2012

Ted, I was leaving a restaurant, and slipped and my head hit the hood of a car very hard on my left temple. The ER did not take any x-rays because I didn't remember losing consicousness. I did have a large bump on my left forehead, my teeth went through my lip and I had a long cut in my eyebrow. Now I fall if I stand unsupported for a few minutes because my equilibrum is off and I cannot get my balance. Is there something I can do?
