KST A to Z
Fear of dentist
Chris Musacchio, DC
Harrisburg, North Carolina
Female patient, mid-sixties, mentioned her horrific fear of the dentist all through her adult life. Her husband has to drive her to dental appointments because of her anxiety and she has to be sedated to get through even a simple cleaning.
One KST adjustment - she had a dental visit later that day. She later reported that she was able to sit with her hands in her lap and was relaxed for the first time she can ever remember in a dental chair. No gas! Her hygienist was amazed, the dentist was amazed, her husband was amazed, she was amazed.
