Whiplash

A 59 year old female came for BSR. She had a whiplash injury some years before in 1987 and 1998, and had been diagnosed with L5 spondylolisthesis in 1996. She had been unable to work for several years due to back pain. In addition, she was experiencing pain under both shoulder blades, had tingling sensation in her fingers and numbness in both knees.

Following three appointments, the client reported a huge improvement in the lower back pain. She continued to attend for regular 'maintenance' appointments, each time feeling immediate benefits. The client regained strength and confidence and also found employment once again, finding that the regular 'releases' helped her to cope with the immediate stress problems that she was experiencing as the result of the new challenge.
