A 72-year-old woman came to my office suffering from lower back pain (LBP), high blood pressure (HBP), neck pain, bilateral wrist pain, and poor sleep.

First priorities were cranium, sagittal suture, facial bones, cervicals, and emotional stress. She came back six weeks later completely transformed and happy. Her LBP and high blood pressure and other problems were gone, and she was sleeping better. She said she wanted to come in every day for care. I tried to explain to her that one or two total visits would be enough.

A related case on smoking: a patient came in and said out of the blue, "I want to quit smoking." Checking for priorities while she thought about smoking, her sphenoids and temporals came up and were adjusted. She returned to say that every time she thinks about smoking or tries to smoke, she gets nauseous. She had been smoking two packs a day since age 14 (in her 60s now), and since the adjustment can't get past a couple of puffs due to the strong nausea.
