KST A to Z
Elbow connected to sciatica?
Tedd Koren, DC
Gwynedd Valley, Pennsylvania
A female patient was suffering with sciatica for many years. She asked, "Is there something you can do to get rid of my sciatica?" "I don't know, I'll ask your body." The OD sent me to her elbow! I tapped her elbow with the arthrostim where the OD suggested, and she said: "My sciatica just disappeared the moment you did that. How is the elbow connected to my sciatica pain?" "I have no idea," I told her.
Years later she remains sciatica-free.
