Fibromyalgia - cure the pain with cranial sacral osteopathy

I would like to share with you a letter that I recently recieved from a lady with Fibromyalgia whom I have been treating for a while now for. As you will see Becky been kind enought to share her experiences and the benefits that she has seen from her regular treatment over this last year. I am very grateful to her for taking the time out to write this letter.

"A little over a year ago I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, a rheumatologic disease which causes severe muscle and joint pain, debilitating fatigue and ‘brain fog’, the inability to think clearly.

Although I had lived with many of the symptoms for years, they suddenly became worse. I was forced to resign from most of my work schedule and spent hours every day in bed. Simply hanging a load of laundry was enough to reduce me to tears.

Since conventional medicine has failed to come up with a cure for or medicine to relieve the Fibromyalgia symptoms, I turned to alternative solutions. I tried shiatsu, homeopathy, the candida diet, chiropractic and acupuncture. While some of these were helpful (mostly the homeopathic remedies) some of them – the shiatsu and chiropractic – made the symptoms worse.

Then I found Craniosacral therapy. During my first treatment I experienced a relaxation so deep it caused me to comment, “I never realized how tense I was.” I sat up and turned my head from side to side without any pain for the first time since I’d been in a car accident three years early. To my amazement the brain fog lifted and I was able to think clearly.

That night I slept soundly for the first time in years. When I awoke the next morning I felt refreshed and full of energy. I was able to exercise and do simple household chores without pain.

Since that time I have continued to see Daniel for regular treatments twice a month. I have returned to my full work schedule. The Fibromyalgia symptoms return occasionally and I have good days and bad days, but overall my level of functioning is better than it’s been for a long, long time.

Daniel Tarlow is a sensitive, caring, extremely professional therapist. His many years of experience have endowed him with much knowledge and wisdom. He has a great sense of humor and cares deeply about his clients. I highly recommend him."
