case4・15 year old High school boy with atopic dermatitis

He suffered from eczema in his joints due to atopic dermatitis since childhood.

He was always itchy and unconsciously scratched himself during sleep, and was covered in blood every morning. He always practiced hard in the tennis club and had muscle pains from over exertion. When he was hungry, he usually ate instant noodles and other  junk foods. On his first visit, he’d caught a cold and had a fever, sore throat and muscle pains. His symptoms were reduced with my first treatment and I also provided him with dietary guidance.  After that, he visited my clinic about one to three times a month. His eczema had receded by the 5th visit, and his atopic symptoms improved after the 7th visit and did not recur. In his case he had not used steroids or other drugs, so the effect was rapid.　

Case 5     58-year-old self-employed woman

When she opened her mouth to brush her teeth, her jaw was alway in pain.  She was referred to Kyoto University Hospital by her dentist, and had been treated for a year and a half with pain relievers and steroids. She couldn't chew well and was forced to consume a liquid diet. 

Eventually, she had to close her boutique. It was decided that she needed surgery, and at the time of signing the consent form for the operation, she was told that she may never be completely cured. So she decided against surgery.

A long time acquaintance  introduced her to me as he was my apprentice. With one treatment, the pain in her jaw was reduced, and she could open her mouth for the first time in over a year and a half and could even brush her teeth. I treated her every day and after ten visits she could chew vegetables. Her jaw pain could finally be tolerated. I also successfully treated her intercostal neuralgia and stomach pain, which had plagued her for some time. From the first month, she came to my clinic once a week. By the nineteenth treatment, she could chew lightly and eat solid food. Her facial tics and paralysis disappeared. After Twenty-three treatments, she could talk freely and her boutique resumed normal operation by the sixth month. Her other complaints (headache, back pain, poor vision, hip pain, knee pain, arrhythmia, hemorrhoids, etc.) also improved, and after treating her two or three times a month for 10 months she completely recovered. 

Case 6  16 year old high school girl

 Two areas of her left chest began to hurt, which progressively worsened,  eventually becoming  intolerable. She visited a nearby City Hospital which found no abnormalities in chest x-rays or electrocardiograms.  Blood tests showed a slight increase in white blood cell count, so she was diagnosed with "costochondritis". She took the pain-killers given by her doctor, but the pain recurred at the end of her prescription. An orthopedic examination revealed no abnormalities in her ribs.

She used suppositories, but those too became painful when the painkillers were no longer effective. She then went to a nearby Osteopathic Clinic but found no relief. Through her grandmother's referral, she came to my clinic, although she lived far away. Palpation of her painful right chest revealed streak-like indurations  with severe tenderness at several locations where the pain was located. So I loosened these indurations and her pain was relieved. Thereafter, the pain did not recur. 

                                                                                                                        ("Case Study No. 9" Case 5)

Cause

 The patient was diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis when she was in the fifth grade and wore a corset for five years. It is speculated that the compression of the corset impeded blood flow and caused the stiffness.

Case 7・ 84 year old man 

He was coming to my clinic once a month for stiff shoulders, back pain and lower limb pain. He had hypertension and arrhythmia (irregular hartrate). He visited a nearby hospital and was continuously receiving medical treatment.

One summer, symptoms of dizziness became severe, and he was hospitalized for examination, but there were no abnormalities in his brain and the cause was unknown.

He was hospitalized and received infusions for three weeks, but discharged because his dizziness did not resolve. He returned to my clinic and when he'd lay down on the treatment bed, his dizziness was very severe. There was light stiffness in his temples, and I treated his whole body with an emphasis on loosening it. Symptoms diminished with each treatment, and dizziness did not occur after six treatments. Two months later, he could walk without assistance and his arrhythmia disappeared.　         

Cause

 It was a very hot summer that year, so he wasn’t walking outside. Instead, it is speculated that he spent every day in an air-conditioned room to stay cool, aggravating his autonomic nervous system and restricting peripheral circulation.
