Don’t be Trapped by the Symptoms
When we drive to a place, sometimes you follow the GPS step by step, finally you reach a wrong destination. Eventually you figure out the street number, city are all the same, only difference is “Ave” or “street”. We are trapped by GPS. A lot of times, we are always trapped by the symptoms in our body, such as shoulder pain, stomach bloating, irregular heartbeat, etc.
One of my patients from San Francisco, she is 29 years old, she went to ER three times for heart racing, all at around 3:00 AM, the symptoms were severely shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat, in the range of 100 to 110. She was full of fear and restless, she felt she was dying. But EKG showed her heart function was normal, lab test result nothing was wrong, imaging didn’t show any sign of Asthma, all is negative. So she was sent home time after time, just suggested her to have enough rest, take it easy. But she really felt not “easy”, she couldn't breathe, couldn't sleep, overwhelmed with fear and worry,…so she came to me to try alternative solutions. I have so many cases like this in my clinic practice, so I didn’t even need to think, I knew what was the problem. After confirmation, I diagnosed she had mild excess growth in T2-4, and the vertebrae leaned to the left side around 10-12 degrees, and they were very stiff. The vertebrae partially pinched the cardio sympathetic nerves and led to the racing of the heart, which messed up the oxygen supply of the lungs, caused her shortness of breath. And in philosophy of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the heart governs the mind, so when the heart was out of order, the mind is insecure, she had a lot of fear, worry and vexation. After a holographic acupuncture session, she was completely calmed, all the symptoms disappeared. Through consecutive three more visits, she has been stable over five months till now.
In the similar situation, I treated her only for her T1-5 region, I didn’t do anything for her heart, but the symptoms went away. This means, the symptom were in the heart, but the root cause was in their spine, that’s why EKG showed normal, but the body was not normal. So, don't always trust the symptoms in our body, the most important thing is find the “root”. Many similar cases are: knee pain, shoulder pain, Migraine, allergies, stomach pain, …, if you get trapped by the symptoms, the result is like these real stories, someone suffer severe stomach pain for 22 years; someone suffer repetitive uterus tumor/fibroids, colon polyps even cancer, migraines lifetime, etc. If we can always find the root cause for all the diseases, it is not difficult to find the cure for Hypertension, diabetes, etc.
