MUSCLE INHIBITION OR UNBALANCED DIAPHRAGM. PART 3

MUSCLE INHIBITION OR UNBALANCED DIAPHRAGM. PART 3

Welcome to part 3 of this article. So to get back on the subject,what is the logical order in recalibrating your client and treating short tonic muscles involved in pain management. This week while assessing a client, an interesting turn of event as i was figuring out a way to resolve back pain problems in a client.

1st Appointment:
I evaluated the client and found that his right hip needed repositioning and left hip showed signs of instability in the stabilizing muscles(mostly biceps femoris) creating stress in his lower back. So the problem looked like a socket problem resulting in more internal rotation on one hip and more external rotation on the other hip.

2cd Appointment:
I decided to check out if any other sensory problems was causing the back pain. At the end of my evaluation, I ended up finding a 5 mm shorter leg on the left leg. I also found that he had a Malocclusion and could barely open his mouth 1". He was clinching hard core at night and during the day. If it was not enough, his left eye was paralysed and had retracted scars that never healed on the STM (superficial front line)and back of the head( superficial back line).
INTERESTING FACT: When i treated the scars with the laser, nothing was felt by the client!

Final appointment & treatment:
1-I simply recalibrated the hip (lower diaphragm) then released the short tonic muscles inhibiting the right side of the rib cage (latissimus Dorsi, intercostal muscles and paravertebral muscles).
Followed by a full diaphragm release
2- Then loosen up his jaw and instill CORRECTOL eye drops and gave him 5mm heel for his left shoe.

Then something interesting occurred. I proceeded to retreat the scars and this time, he felt the laser and release. His lowerback felt amazing. Even his gate cycle was better!

To Sum up PART 3, Sometimes the best way to help a client is treat intrinsically first and extrinsically second. But at the end it depends on the client and the problem in question.... Is there a part 4? Ill let you know as i continue case studies
