KST A to Z

Car sickness

Denise Primavera, DC

Telford, Pennsylvania

I decided to use KST today on a 10-year-old boy who I had been seeing for about 18 months for migraine headaches with a concurrent diagnosis of ADD.

I checked him for ocular lock and found OD's at 12 and 5 o'clock, tapping sphenoid and temporals bilateral anterior as he looked in those directions.

His mom then asked if ocular lock could cause carsickness, which had become so severe they always kept bags and coffee cans in the car. I asked the boy to visualize being really, really carsick while I tapped the sphenoids bilaterally.

After lunch there was a message: they had driven on various errands for an hour without his feeling the least bit sick. He usually sat in miserable silence during any ride, but this time talked animatedly the whole time.
