Spinal Stenosis Pain and Pregnancy Headache

Please note that Marie LaForce, RN refers to "Chasing the Pain" in the first sentence of her article below. This is a concept I introduced in our advanced tapes wherein we continue tapping on pain as it moves around the body and changes nature. It is my thought that this moving pain is evidence of changing emotional issues. As we relieve each pain, we relieve the emotional issue behind it.

Hugs, Gary

by Marie LaForce, RN

Gary,

Here are two examples of how 'Chasing the Pain' worked.

Pain due to Spinal Stenosis:

I saw a woman who was in pain for the entire summer and wasn't sure why. This Fall she was diagnosed with spinal stenosis, a narrowing of the spinal column that was putting pressure on her nerves. She was seeing a physical therapist for about 3 weeks and was not getting much relief from her pain. I asked her if she'd like to try EFT. She said, "Why not."

We focused on the physical symptoms and began with her rubbing on the sore spot. "Even though I have this pain in my left butt cheek, I deeply and completely accept myself."

We followed the pain as it seemed most predominant (where she noticed it).

"Even though I have this pain in my left hip...."
"Even though I have this pain in my left knee..."
"Even though I have this pain in my left thigh..."
"Even though I have this pain in my left hip..."

The entire basic recipe was applied after each of the set ups with no shortcuts. After tapping on 'my hip' for the second time, she reported that the pain was gone. She got up and moved. The pain was still gone. As she sat on the couch, she told me generally, she wasn't able to sit for that length of time without feeling very uncomfortable. She had no pain at all when I left.

I called her a month later. She said the pain stayed away for about a week and gradually started to reappear. When I talked to her she was quite uncomfortable again. I believe that continued tapping on the pain or other issues such as support (problems with the spine), etc., would have helped her to get at the additional aspects that were coming up.

GC COMMENT: I also think that exploring emotional issues that may be contributing to the pain and, for that matter, the overall condition (Spinal Stenosis) would be of further value.

MARIE CONTINUES: On a similar note......

Pregnancy Headache:

I saw a woman who was 18 weeks pregnant. She reported that she had a dull, persistent headache for the last two weeks. Tylenol was not effective. Her MD thought it may be due to the increased blood volume at her stage of pregnancy and hopefully it would go away in two weeks.

She agreed to try EFT. We applied the full basic recipe with no shortcuts for the following set ups and followed her pain around where it seemed the most predominant.

"Even though I have this dull headache, I deeply and completely accept myself."
"Even though I have this headache in my right temple...."
"Even though I have this pain at the base of my skull...."
"Even though I have this headache on the left side of my head...."

At this point, she thought the pain was gone. She seemed somewhat hesitant so I thought she was just sick of tapping and was being polite. After the Healing Touch treatment I gave her, I asked her about her headache again. She was quite nonchalant about it, but reported it really was gone.

She called me 2 weeks later. With this call she had some enthusiasm in her voice. She reported that she never did get her headache back and she was really thankful.

These two examples illustrate that even though someone has been told there is a physical or anatomical reason for a certain problem and it would appear that there is no way some simple tapping could make any difference, try it anyway! In these two instances both women benefited significantly.

Important note: While EFT has produced remarkable clinical results, it must still be considered to be in the experimental stage and thus practitioners and the public must take complete responsibility for their use of it.
