Almost 50 Years Of Hatchet-Like Headache Pain After Car Accident Helped With Cranial Adjusting

I really enjoyed this one. When somebody tells you it feels like a hatchet is stuck in the side of their head….and has been for almost 50 years, it really motivates you to solve the problem.

Following a car accident in the 1970’s this woman lived with daily headaches. She had a scar all down her face to prove the trauma.

But even after going from doctor to doctor for nearly 50 years, she was still no better than shortly after the accident.

I knew the trauma had to be locked up cranial bones. And since virtually nobody adjusts the bones of the skull, I had a real good hunch I could help her.

So, we started the cranial adjustments and she came back the next week all smiles….

High fives and hugs all around. What a relief.

And as I typically do when I work, I tell stories. So I told her about one of the first recorded cranial adjustments back in the 1920’s.

This doctor was trying to help a woman who was hysterical, ripping the drapes down and acting crazy. For two days this went on until the chiropractor noticed that she was pulling at her hair, as if to try to release pressure outward.

He told the husband he had an idea. Never been done before, but they agreed she couldn’t live like that.

So, the chiropractor set out to release pressure in the skull. The woman had instant relief and she stopped pulling at her hair.

I said, “I’ve been waiting for you!”

I figured at some point I would have a patient describe this sensation to me. She agreed that pulling her hair outward seemed to release a little bit of pressure.

But what really blew her away was she didn’t even realize she had stopped doing this until I told the story. It was so automatic for her that she wasn’t really consciously aware of pulling her hair.

She went on to recover more, not fully, but drastically better than she had been in almost 50 years.
