Forget that osteopath, Carina! Just because he didn’t know how to help you, doesn’t mean ALL cranio-sacral therapists can’t help you!
There are about one million things I can do, even if CranioSacral Therapy (CST) were not to work. First, I’d want to go to a CS therapist who believed he COULD help me and give that a chance. For a severe injury, that means minimum of 10 sessions, each session being at least 1 hour long.
There are lots of different osteopaths out there and some are excellent with manual therapy and some are not. I don’t know which category that guy you went to is in.
Let’s say CST didn’t work for me. Why doesn’t it work for me? It works for lots of people with similar isssues. So I would want to work on 2 fronts.
The body heals itself perfectly well if it has the proper nutritional support. That is key. That’s why my clients get better results if they go on an aggressive nutritional program along with the manual therapy. I trust USANA because it worked for me and it has lots of 3rd party endorsements of its scientific basis and potency/purity guarantee. I’ve seen my clients On it, do much better than my clients NOT on it.
Next, I want to explore the psycho-emotional reasons I might not be getting better. So I seek out someone who does hypnosis, time line therapy, emotional freedom technique (EFT), Somato Emotional Release (SER–often done with EFT), Family Constellations or some mind-body therapy. I do these with my clients and they find it helpful.
There is lots more.
Carina, have you tried all these yet?
Don’t give up hope! There is an answer to all my challenges as long as I don’t give up! Let me know what happens, Carina!
