My wife just suffered an open fracture due to a workplace accident.
What precautions should I keep in mind during treatment once she’s been helped and released from hospital?
I’ll be going through what I usually do in such cases:
- restore function to local muscles
- Evil Bone Water and TDP
- perfusion
- soft tissue work
My concern is whether there’s an appropriate timeline for any of these. For example, is pain relief and hemodynamics/fluid dynamics a main focus early while avoiding motor points?
Is there a waiting period before doing any motor points?
Etc.
TIA!

Does anyone have experience treating spasmodic dystonia of the vocal cords? I just saw this patient for the first time. She's a singer and speaker. Gradual onset after COVID or after the COVID shot. She's not sure. I treated the tight muscles of the SCM as well as points for the vagus nerve. Then in prone did a perfusion treatment of her neck from UB 10 to T-1. I suggested her seeing a neurologist to rule out Parkinsons. She's also on a statin for high calcium (not for high cholesterol) She's 67 and has a healthy lifestyle. Thanks in advance!
