Richard,
Diet? I cannot imagine a mechanism for a direct correlation between this and the mechanical phenomenon of neural tension. How would you find such a connection manifest aside from how you presonally feel and what underlying theory might you give us to explain it?

Diet can effect soft tissue systems in many ways. We can all see what it does in Krones disease. I am hypothesising that a soft tissue reaction causes a tightening/ inflammation/selling etc in the dural or an increase in CSF volume. Hence an increase in neural tension. I do not believe therefore neural tension to be a mechanical issue rather a chemical issue with mechanical side effects. Some research on this line would be great.

late response but maybe someone will read this. david Butler's book as Bob mentioned, is excellent but a lot of his stuff is empirical. However if no-one has anything better...I have had, as mentioned in another episode, v ery good results that could be arguably M/S in origin, except for tell tale LINES of pain and localised pain patches. I think it must be partly biochemical as well as mechanical but have no objective means of showing it to be.

fASCINATING correspondence on the AMT story. Very hard to believe it is purely machanical - has to be biochemical somehwere. Look at the Frozen Shoulder Syndrome - 'swaps' from side to side and is self-limiting.
Neural tension??? biochemical synthesis with 2* mechanical effect?????
