McTimony chiropractic - brilliant!

[chyvrjid]

I recently hada session with a McTimony chiropractor and I wanted to share the experience as I found the treatment very powerful.

I've had back problems since I was 13, when the extremely heavy schoolbag that I carried over one shoulder caused pain and tension between my scapula and spine.

Later I developed a stiff sacroilliac joint in my pelvis, which also caused a great deal of pain.

Latterly I started to have neck problems- which were stemming from a slightly rotated atlas bone of the skull.

I went to the chiropractor and she worked the entire spine, right down to my feet, and then concentrated on the neck.

McTimony chiropractic does not involve 'cracking' or forceful spinal manipulations. It is a very gentle approach which uses quick movements and sweeps of the hand over each vertebrae (seems a bit wierd if you're used to traditional chiropractic). As I had the treatment I felt in almost a meditative and relaxed state.

Anyway, the night after the session was sleepless as I felt a burning sort of pain down one side of my back and all up through my neck. My foot (which I broke last year) also started to hurt. There were emotional symptoms also where I felt very upset, and then quite depressed (I have suffered from depression in the past).

This was a couple of days ago and the neck pain I went to the chiropractor for are completely gone. My upper back (between scapulaand spine, where the problems began) is also not painful.My lower back also feels considerably looser. My foot is still sore but I think it is getting better. Emotionally I feel much 'clearer', as though some supressed emotions have been released.

Overall I feel I went through a 'healing crisis'. I had to take time off work as I needed to 'let' the healing take place, rather than just get on with things as bury it all again.

I'm not saying that one treatment and I'm sudddenly 'cured', but I know that the session had a profound effect on me and went a long way towards easing up over 10 years of tension and problems.

I would whole-heartedly reccomend McTimony chiropractic!!

Thank you for this - I have had 8 traditional chiropractic treatments for whiplash and I'm disappointed to find that now I have stopped the treatments there is no lasting change

This is really sad, because I had to pluck up SO much courage to have the chiropractic; it was totally a case of 'feel the fear and do it anyway'. I'm still feeling dizzy and in pain, so perhaps I will now try McTimmony.

How do I find a practitioner in my area?

So glad you have had a good response to it

I'd thoroughly recommend McTimony chiropractic. When I was in my early to mid teens I suffered with horrendous back pain. I went to the doctor who did the usual and told me to take anti inflammatory pain killers. I've never really liked taking pills so my mum spoke to a friend who is a homeopath. She suggested seeing a chiropractor. I had a session but found the whole thing quite painful and only being 14 at the time, I really didn't want to go back. If I'm honest, it probably did help a bit, but as the treatment hurt so much, there was no way I was going back! A few months later and still suffering, my mum discovered McTimony and found a practitioner just 6 miles from us.

I was apprehensive about going, but something had to be done. I remember thinking when I was having my first treatment that it couldn't possibly be doing anything. She told me that my spine was completely misaligned and my pelvis was rotated. She worked on every part of my body including my fingers and toes. When I got up off the couch I felt taller, which was a really weird feeling! I had a few sessions and the problem was pretty quickly resolved. I carried on going for top up sessions every month or so for a while and then just whenever I felt I needed it. Definately a fantastic treatment, especially if you don't like being 'cracked'.

Hiya Amathyst cave,

Just type 'McTimony Chiropractic' in2 a search engine and you'll get a site where you can type in your city and find the names of practitioners there.

I had a second treatment today and again found it incredible. It is such a deep treatment but is also so gentle!
