Susan W., a 52-year-old woman, entered our office on 5/5/11, with complaints of severe left upper quadrant pain, bloating and spasms, severe diarrhea and incontinence, going to the bathroom 5-6 times a day, sometimes more.

This has persisted for 12 years and has been interfering with marital intimacy. All her medical tests were negative.

Standard KST protocol was followed. The OD first led us to her descending colon and splenic flexure. The OD also led to a severe grain sensitivity.

I asked for priorities relating to the colon and adjusted L1 and coccyx. I also instructed her to eliminate all grains from her diet and take a digestive enzyme, lactic acid yeast and liquid aloe.

She returned five days later reporting a moderate reduction in bowel pain, spasm and frequency. Adjustments were pubic bone medial and T7 post. On 5/24/11 she had with no left side pain or gurgling. Her bowel movements were well formed and twice a day. Adjustments were L1 post and lt. ileum IN.

As of 6/7/11 the patient has no symptoms. Her bowels are regular and normal, and marital relations have resumed without worry; we have one happy camper here. Only once did Susan cheat on her diet and had an ear of corn with bad results for 2 days so now she "gets it" and knows the effect of grains on her colon.
