KST A to Z
Xyphoid adjustment
Kate Walder, DC
Birmingham, West Midlands, United Kingdom
A 52-year-old male reporting pain in the sternum and a sore sensation around the xiphoid process "as if something was pushing from the inside". He also reported substantial abdominal bloating and discomfort on any intake of food or liquid, even just water.
I adjusted for meningeal tension, breathing pattern, xiphoid process and ileocecal valve.
At our next session, he reports an 80% reduction in sternum and xiphoid pain. No more "pushing" sensation and a 90% reduction in bloating. These are all symptoms he has had for months. He was stunned - so was I.
