Client Complaint
A 52-year old woman named Carol came into our clinic complaining about chronic pain in the ribs with heat sensation under the breast. She said it may be due to her breast reduction surgery because she never had it before. She had also indicated she has hot flashes through-out the day with sever night sweats. She felt overwhelmed at work with daily anxiety. Her sleeping pattern was also not well because she frequently woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't go back to sleep.
Results
Carol has scar tissue build-up after her breast reduction surgery with menopausal symptoms compounded with work stress. I decided to administer three different protocol for her on the first visit. Carol came back with amazement! She reports rib pain is gone and she only had one episode of hot flash since the last visit; her stress level also decreased. However, night sweats continued. In total, Carol received 6 treatments. We checked with her in 6 months and she was free from pain, hot slashes and night sweats.
