KST A to Z
Emotional retracing in a beaver trapper

Jim is a retired beaver trapper, a 60-something bright man who looks like a skinny Grizzly Adams. He had been under care in our office for 3 years before I began using KST.
At the next visit, before I said hello, he yelled "Don't ever do that stand up sh@# on me again!" When I asked why he said, "I haven't felt this crappy in 15 years." Further questioning revealed his original chiropractic care began 15 years earlier after he nearly died falling 30 feet from a rooftop.
He begrudgingly consented to another KST session after I discussed retracing. Two weeks later I asked why he was standing there instead of laying on the table, to which he replied, "So you can do that stand up sh@# again. I haven't felt this great mentally and physically in 15 years."
