Is the journey to health a straight line? Unfortunately it is not. There are ups and downs like a roller coaster. When health doesn’t seem to go the right way, does it mean that you’re on the wrong path?
Not necessarily. For example – one of the possible side effects of neural therapy – a treatment for nervous system is a temporary worsening of health issues.
Let’s read about a client who had that issue.
Worsening Symptoms with Neural Therapy
The lady was having issues with her heart beating really fast and hard at 3 AM which woke her up from sleep. She had problem with neck pain several years ago and also had fallen onto her tailbone couple decades ago.
The heart beating really fast seemed related to the nervous system so a treatment for the nervous system was done at the neck and tailbone area. The next day things had changed- for the better and the worse. Her upper back was really sore but she felt that her bowels were moving better.
Nervous treatment for the heart was done and the heart palpitations didn’t happen the next day. But things had changed -it was tough for her to focus on thinking.
Navigating ups and downs recovery
In coping with recovery challenges, things get better and worse- but hopefully the overall trend is going toward health. One of the possibilities with nervous system treatment is that there is worsening for a short period of time. That’s what happened with her upper back.
Her nervous system was treated at the beginning and end of the spinal nervous system. The upper back acted up which was close to the top of the spine and the heart nervous system that wasn’t treated got worse.
But with treatment of the heart nervous system, the heart problems improved but then a deeper level of disease showed up. That’s why she had trouble thinking.
The important thing to realize in the journey to health is that it’s not a smooth road. Sometimes you improve and sometimes you worsen. Hopefully the improvement outweighs the worsening. But if different symptoms show up it may mean that a new layer of disease is being uncovered. So be aware of the ups and downs in a health journey so that you can expect it.
