In chiro school, 3 years ago, I developed elbow problems from manual adjustments. This developed into Carpal Tunnel Syndrome after putting together furniture for my new office; I could not feel to palpate my patients’ spines and had just opened my new first office. For the next three nights, I used (Balance) on the long axis of the elbows, toward the hands on either elbow while I slept, waking to use it every few hours or so. I could feel my elbows ache when I found the “sweet spot” and they ached so good the whole time the machine was on it.
Today, I can write for the first time in 2 weeks without numbness, and I can palpate to adjust my patients. Despite waking up to move the machine through the night, I’d awaken in the morning energetic and refreshed. I feel happy and my arms feel more comfortable today than when I first developed elbow pain several years ago – I can feel to write & work.
