My body tension and pain goes away for a while after (insert body work technique here) BUT ALWAYS COMES BACK.
Is this something that happens to you? Do you get a massage, chiropractic, or do physical therapy but your symptoms come back a few days later? I’ve been there too.
It wasn’t long ago that I was getting visual migraines. I would start having a hard time seeing and then a multicolored ring would appear in my vision, making it impossible to see. Sometimes it would be accompanied by a headache, sometimes not. I went to the ophthalmologist to check my vision. It was fine. I started doing chiropractic regularly with no end in sight. (Pun intended! hahah!) It wasn’t until I took the time to UNDERSTAND MY SYMPTOM that it finally began to shift.
I used acupressure to help me decode what was happening. I used points on the Bladder channel to help me understand where my visual migraines were coming from. It was a combination of “not being able to see” something. The emotional component was that I felt dumb, helpless, childish when I couldn’t see the solution. Real life example: I donated my old car recently. I told the person I was giving it to that I had the title to the car and then I couldn’t find it, I COULDN’T SEE IT. This was an individual that was older than me, who seemed more responsible than me and I regretted telling him I had the title before I actually knew where it was. I didn’t want to feel embarrassed in front of him if I couldn’t find the title. However, I had a feeling that I knew where it was. It was exactly where I thought it was and BAM! As soon as I found it, I could literally see it, I GOT A VISUAL MIGRAINE! Instead of freaking out about it like I used to do. I laughed and loved my body. We are in our Water Element (0-7 years old) which are the Bladder and Kidney organs. It’s a time when we are pretty helpless and depend on our parents for most things. So, it connected perfectly with this helpless childlike feeling I experienced. I pressed on Bladder 2 point for about a minute and my migraine went away.
Having the knowledge to be fearless and empowered is the real power of Chinese Medicine and acupressure. Do you want a technique that will ACTUALLY HELP YOU navigate your symptoms and even provide the possibility of them going away for good? What about approaching symptoms with lightness and even joy when they arise? You have to be able to connect your body and your mind and understand your symptoms to shift them. You can’t just go to a massage therapist who wouldn’t talk to you about the WHY of your symptoms and expect them to change. My new class Acupressure 101 will teach you all you need to know to have easeful experiences in navigating your symptoms.
