Dear shahadheera:

For most studies, a control group is needed.

In studies with a control group, results do not seem to differ from the control group much from your results.

Have you considered the effect of the pressure from the occiput to the C1 as a possible cause? While this is a theory of the NUCCA chiropractic discipline for the most part, a similar effect can be accomplished in approximately 5 treatments by treating the longus capitus, anterior suboccipitals and the levator scapula rather than the positional techniques of the NCCA chiropractic field. These all effect the position of the occipital to the C1.

My own experienvce in this is limited to only a few patients, but the effects have been quicker than expected and long term.

Hope that you find this helpful.

Best regards,

Neuromuscular
