Chiropractic Case Study 1
Patient: 43 year old female with prior history of chronic fatigue moderately resolved and no significant trauma. Visiting Colorado, resides in the Eastern US, and has three potential treatment days available until returning home.
Presentation: Four months of visual blurring of unknown etiology, Prior diagnostics and treatment included evaluation by neurologist, neuro-opthamologist, opthamologist, internist, chiropractor, naturopath, acupuncturist, herbalogist, massage therapist, and physical therapist. Tests include (unremarkable) brain MRI and blood workup. Response to treatment was no change per medical, 50% facilitation and aggravation by chiropractic, 100% aggravation by acupuncturist, and no change by all others. Additional symptomology included bilateral elbow pain and ache, right wrist pain and binding, bilateral anterior thigh ache, bilateral knee pain, and frontal headaches.
SRA Evaluation: Revealed a C2 axial spinal reflex mechanism with secondary C5, T2, T5, L3, and S1 reactive segmental dysfunction. All muscle, ligament, and joint reflexes per SRA pattern were noted with direct correlation of SCM and trapezius myofascial referred headaches and visual blurring.
Treatment: CMT (chiropractic manipulative therapy) specific to SRA protocols was administered over two consecutive days with a complete remission in elbow, knee, and thigh symptoms, 85% reduction in headaches and visual blurring, Third treatment after two day interlude 95% successful.
Recommendations: Continue SRA based CMT, heat myofascial muscle condition 1x/day for two plus weeks, increase anti-stress and anti-inflammatory dietary factors, actively modify posture and computer ergonomics.
