KST A to Z

Heart palpitations, upper back pain

Sandy Watt, DC

Calgary, Alberta, Canada

A patient presented with heart palpitations and upper dorsal (mid-back) pain. I adjusted his sternum, panic and exhaustion patterns, cervical disc, etc. I also did the Wave. He falls prone as I assist him to an adjusting table. I ask the OD how long he'll be in this state and I get 50 minutes.

He promptly falls asleep. I note the time. When he has about a minute to go I sit beside him and wait until the OD says he is done. As I get ready to wake him up I see his hand move a little and suddenly his eyes pop open and he is wide-awake. This happened the exact second the OD said he would be finished. His heart and his upper back pain are now fine.
