Guest guest Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 , your advice to Nile about the muscle pain was fascinating and timely. I'm personally interested too, because last week I had some sharp pain on the top of my head just like I'd bumped it hard ---but I hadn't. I could hardly stand to have one dime-sized spot touched nor could I wear a cap or hat. Even the hair around that spot was unruly and cow-licked. The scalp seemed normal on the surface. After 3 days the pain slowly subsided and it's better now. Could this be the same type of " indicator " that the arm pain represents? Is the map the same as the acupuncture meridians? Clue us all in if you don't mind. Will in Minnesota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is definitely a meridian connection, but rather than the effected muscle being directly on the meridian its a " referral " connection through an organ reflex point. For Nile, I checked out " upper arm " last night. Most of the deltoids (shoulder muscles coming down to mid upper arm) are lung muscles, except one -- the anterior deltoid, which was the one that got me, that refers to GB. Biceps and brachiordialis are stomach referral. Triceps are spleen/pancreas. That should cover most of the upper arm. Now, Nile to complicate matters it is POSSIBLE since you said you had Large Intestine issues that those issues COULD be being played out on the lung muscles (Lung and Large Intestine are paired organs/meridians) but that is not the first direction to explore, based on your sore arm. Will, your situation I suspect is different. The muscle referral does not include head muscles (nor ALL the muscles, to my knowledge). Heads are rich in neurovasculars. Neurovasculars are the same idea (referral thorough reflex points) but using a different bodily system -- ie the vascular system. Those usually indicate an OVERCHARGED organ or meridian and are often emotional in origin. The way to correct this situation is to lightly press the hurting place and hold for however long it takes to relieve the pain, up to about 10 minutes. The ones on the top of your head are: Central, Lungs, Heart and our buddies, Liver and GallBladder. This info is also covered in Touch for Health or in Thie's book of the same name. Also, Will, I will mention my husband had something similar within the past two weeks. His issues was that he needed a cranial adjustment. Lots of cranial bones come together at the top of your head. BE CAREFUL WHO YOU HAVE DO THIS WORK. It is HIGHLY specialized and you can get very messed up with an untrained or semi-skilled practitioner. As an intermediate step to help you decide if a cranial adjustment is appropriate, go to your corner bookstore and buy a copy of Donna Eden's Energy Medicine. She has a technique called a CROWN PULL where you open up the sutures (the stuck together parts of the cranial bones) with a gentle pressure/release technique. If this (extremely powerful) technique helps, do it a few days regularly (you can do it multiple times throughout the day safely) to see if you can self-correct before seeking help. Checking for and holding with your finger tips any sore places on your head as a daily practice (I do it before going to sleep at night) will pay be dividends of helping the energy in your body flow more smoothly, avoiding these pile-ups people experience in their livers, gallbladders, hearts, pancreas, large or small intestines, etc. Hope this helps. If I am not clear, ask some questions. (Atlanta) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The > scalp seemed normal on the surface. > Will, on another note, what you are describing is how some people experience a herpes zoster (shingles) outbreak. The pain is excruiating (its nerve pain) and pustles do not always break out. What you are describing is usually a latter stage attack (not initial when there are pustles). I know your immune system has been whacked recently after your trip to the African restaurant and hospital, which is usually a prelude to the viruses we all carry dormant in our body getting opportunistically active. Could HZ be a possibility? Way to verify -- did the hurting spot cross the midline? If so, its not HZ. HZ does not cross the midline of the body and USUALLY only attacks one nerve root which is its nerve root of choice in the future. BTW, a sludge-y stagant liver is part of the bio-terrain needed for something like shingles to get a toe-hold in someone's body. Hope this is not landing at all, (in raw, cold Atlanta) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
