Another Cranial miracle...

I had an amazing thing happen in my office that I wanted to share with you all. A patient came to see me about debilitating Migraine's which she suffers several times a week, she had also lacked all lateral eye movement in her left eye (palsy of the abducens nerve) since birth. Upon examination in addition to various spinal subluxations, I found her sphenoid to be severely fixated in a position of left inferior w/ anterior rotation, which led to restricted motion in the entirty of her left cranium. After releasing her cranium, her eye moved left for the first time in her life. The movement is still restricted, but it is clearly there. I now have her doing eye exercises to strengthen her newly activated muscles along with continued cranial and spinal therapy.

I do not dwell on technique, I have studied CST as well as sacro-occipital technique(also known as Chiropractic Craniopathy), and mix them as I see fit. Working with a fixated cranium is often like trying to open a magic box, someitmes you need to work vectors, sometimes suture lines...and then all of a sudden everything is lined up and the respiration kicks in...aaahhh, like a breathe deeper then the lungs are capable of taking. It is an essential part in helping people to clear distortion patterns from their bodies, and achieve a higher level of function physically, mentally and psychicly. Incidently, the clients Migrane's have also almost completely ceased. She is living ahappier, healthier more actuallized life now...she is now realizing more of her potential. This is the true power of healing in whatever form it may come.

Blessings,
Michael
