Chiropraktik | Akute Schmerzen bei Brustwirbelsäulen-Blockade | deutsch | Folge 23

Hi everyone, nice to have you back. Today a new episode of Chiopractic. And today we have an acute case. And that's Robert. Hi. Thank you for having me. You're welcome. Tell us briefly. I don't really know what's going on. So just start. Yes, I've had a blockade for a week now. It started with pain in the cervical vertebrae. When I turned my head, the pain was only in the back of my back. Now it's so much better that I can move a little again. The freedom is back. But now it's shining a little forward into the thoracic vertebrae. Okay. Mainly when I tilt my head down or look to the side. To both sides? Yes. That doesn't matter? On the one hand, it's a little stronger and I have the feeling that the pain is shining further to the right. Okay, good. Do you have that when you breathe? No. So when you take a deep breath in and out? No problem. Okay. Did you get a headache? No. Neither. Good. Have you ever had something like that before? No. Half a year ago, I woke up at night because of a crack and then I had a blockade. But then I noticed that it was more muscular in my opinion. And now it feels like it's more annoying or something. We'll see in a moment. We will definitely be involved. Now you said a week ago. What was a week ago? Did you wake up in the morning and it was like that? Yes, I would say it was like that. It can be stress-inducing. There was a lot to do last week. 80% of all blockades actually arise in the morning when you get up. Okay. Something must have been in the days before. And then you sleep once. Most people even sleep really well. Wake up in the morning and then you have a blockade. If you sleep really well, you often only have one position in bed and don't move that much. Actually, movement is always good, even when sleeping. We actually do a lot, you don't notice. Okay. That's why drinking is not so good either. It is. If you've been drinking a lot, you don't move much. I've often had blockades from people who were celebrating. But I wasn't celebrating because of Corona. That's right. It's only possible with Me, Myself and I at the moment. You see, we've already discovered an advantage again. Okay, good. Lower back? All right. You didn't notice anything there either? You didn't have any problems otherwise? No. Okay. Any other foot, knee, hip problems? No. I can tell you that I have a slight scoliosis in my spine. But I've had that for years. Yes. Okay. Let's just assume that. You even showed me the area a little earlier. Let's just take a look now. We'll do a little examination now and then we'll see what you think. Yes. Okay? Gladly. I've already sat down. And you just said that too. You've already taken my artificial posture. Yes. That's nice. You only sit like that with the therapist. It's always a bit difficult in between. But that's how I can see the most now. And as always, I'll start at the bottom. Please don't be surprised that I start at the bottom. Even if you've already described the problem to me at the top. Still, I'll take a look at the bottom first. If I find anything down there. Because if we have a problem here and I don't do it away with it, I have to start at the top, you know? It doesn't have to be. How does that look in terms of sports? Yes. I also like to watch TV. What is it? Tennis? Football? Everything. That helps. No, I have to say that I'm unsporty. It doesn't seem so good at first. Please bend forward once. Further. And back up. And again. Do you feel anything in your chest? Again forward. No, it's just that I have my head down. Yes, okay. Then again. Cool. And further. So we don't have to worry about that. That's good. Then we can immediately go one floor higher. Do you notice? Yes, yes, yes. It comes directly opposite to me. Here. Also on the right side. It hurts a lot. You know that, right? Yes. Aha. Good. So there is a right rotation in the chest vertebra. I almost thought that the transition was even more, but it doesn't work here. Okay, let's remember that. Let's do a nice one. I don't have a pen right now, so I'll draw a little mark here. Then we already know that. A little bit. Then pressure builds up here. So you have a rotation here. Here you have a lot of muscles and a lot of fascia. Here is the transition between the neck and the chest vertebra. You notice that too. I can still take a little pressure away from it. Definitely. And then we'll see what the neck vertebra says. So half a year ago ... What are you doing there? Yes, the keys. I'm actually always pretty tender with the keys. I claim. Oh yes. Yes, you are relatively unspectacular in the lumbar spine. But up here it gets really interesting. Look to the left as far as you can, please. Okay, look ahead. So, I've always told you. One thing is how far it goes, but also how fast. Now I said fast. Now Robert will have a hard time making it faster. But he shouldn't. But that was really slow now. As if it were an old door. Okay, look to the right, please. Okay. It cracked once. Did you hear that? Yes. Nothing to do. Look ahead. If you look to the left and to the right. Look to the left again. Does something pull then? Do you feel any pain anywhere? Anywhere? Yes. Here? Okay, good. That's the chest vertebra. Look to the right. How is it there? Also again in front and ... If you look to the left, do you feel it in front too? Yes. Okay, good. And then you have it here. A little further up. Yes, about there. Okay, good. But it's not that it pulls down here. No. Good. Then we take the chin towards the chest. Yes, a little bit maybe. A little bit. It's hard to locate. Okay, chin towards the chest. How is that? Do you feel it here too? No. No? Yes, also in front now, in the middle. Okay, good. Then put your head in your pants and look under the blanket. How is that? I feel that in the back. Further up? Yes, there. Very, very slowly. So here too. About here? Okay, good. Look to the front. So that's really the complete transition now. Yes, nice. What do you have? So in the chest vertebrae acute blockages, cervical vertebrae. It's nice that the chest vertebrae has reported, because the cervical vertebrae, it feels like it's been there for a long time. There are a few things in there that don't quite fit. I'm not quite sure what doesn't fit yet. We'll take a look at that in a moment. I'm starting to loosen you up now and relax you a bit. The problem is always when I say relaxation, then it's not relaxation as you know it. So I have to get this loose first. And what did you say before? Oh boy. I found that very interesting. Someone was supposed to help you yesterday, but how? What do you mean, your girlfriend? No, my sister. Oh, your sister. My sister had tried this classic wrinkle-in, which you know so well. You put it on your stomach, breathe out. I'll press it. And then something cracks and then it's good. Then you think it's better. And? Didn't work? No. Look. Did it crack? No. Ouch. Tell me. Complaints are always welcome only later. So. God, here. Also for you. I'm telling you, right? So up here. This here. That hurts. That has been announced to you a long time ago. Can you be treated regularly? No. So as regularly as you do sports? Yes. Good. You can tell. Now. Do you sit a lot? Yes, office job. You can tell. I can still advertise here, right? Yes, yes. You can always advertise. That's not a problem. As long as you can still speak straight. Not at all. Yes. That could be the problem. Look to the left, please. Good. Look forward. Wait. Forward. Exactly. To the right. Up. Body. Up. Where is the camera? Okay. Look forward. Okay. Good. Mark towards the chest. Okay. Look forward. Have you ever been treated? At some point in your life? I just said that I had a scoliosis. Yes. And it was trained against it muscularly. Good. With practice. Then again, congratulations on the practice. Because that worked really well. Because here you can hardly see anything from the scoliosis in the back. Especially at the age of children, right? Yes, yes. But that made it even longer, right? Yes, for sure. Two years of training and ... Super. So you are really an exemplary example of how positive an early therapy can turn out. Because, to be honest, at first glance, I don't see anything scoliotic here at all. It always tickles a bit. Yes totally. The difference between tickling and pain is by the way only the frequency. Actually, it's almost the same. So, look again, guys. Look to the right. You can be glad that the camera is on. That's why we're filming you. Otherwise the neighbors would have already reported here. Oh, they already know that. It's just like with us in practice. If it's quiet in the treatment rooms, then everyone is actually out there rather restless. So in that respect ... So my hands are really looking forward to it. They really have something to do here. Oh god. And look how straight you can sit. Do you notice that? Now a whole new body feeling. Upstairs it's disgusting. Upstairs it's really stupid. You're relatively close up here. So it's great that you don't have a headache. You can find that very often with a headache patient. Now fun aside. If that's too much for you and if it gets a little weird, please let me know. Because it's already ... Especially up here ... It's already painful. Yes, that's really extremely intense. So, you'll get a short break in a minute, okay? I'm looking forward to it. Short. Now everything is well prepared. Look to the left, please. Okay, look to the right, please. Okay, look forward again. Give me your chest again and here in the back. If you look to the left, look to the right. How is that again? Give me your back again. Here? Yes. There. Okay, thank you for the answer. Look to the right. How is that? I can't tell you, I don't know. It just hurts everywhere. But as I said, it was much worse the day before yesterday. Yes. That will all be a little more diffuse, of course, after the treatment, when I've been everywhere. Okay, good. So. As I said, short break, okay? Not now, though. Soon it will be serious. I'll go in here for a moment. For your understanding, why do you notice that here at the front of the chest? Of course, the thoracic vertebrae go over the ribs in connection with the front of the chest. And that's why it's often noticeable up here. And once the head a little in the neck, because that's also a problem with me. Here at the front, the sternum, this muscle here, it has made it very tight. Wait, wait, break in a moment. Break in a moment. We'll have it in a moment. Don't knock me off. So. Okay, good. We've already prepared a little at the front and back. So, the painful part. First of all, we've already done the biggest part. And now I'm going to your vertebrae. I've been asked several times whether we always make big cuts or breaks in between. We have two minutes now. And then, of course, we chat a little in between. And I just asked Robert if he had ever mobilized a vertebrae at all. No, right? No. Never. So a new experience. Why I like to ask that is, you like to tense up a bit, because I apply pressure. But the nice thing is, earlier here in the tissue, you noticed that everything was limited. That really hurts. But if I apply pressure to your vertebrae, it doesn't hurt. It shouldn't hurt either. So if there's something right now, if I go into the settings now and something hurts, then please let me know. Okay. Okay? And then I won't go any further. Then we'll have to see how we can solve it differently. That's actually always the advantage of it. And you just have to try to let go and not tense up. Then the mobilizations are also totally easy. Okay. Okay? Give me more. Good. Then let's actually start with your chest vertebrae. I think you can go over there. You can put your legs on for that. Once like this. Exactly. And then you grab once like this. If you can. Here, the hand. So. And I'll roll you. I'll be loose, you said. Yes, yes. But I'll tell you that right away. I have to look for the vertebrae again for a moment. So now I still notice further up. That's why I need your help. Here. I would say further up. There. Yes, somewhere there. So here we can go right away. Yes, okay. We'll do that too. That's the transition. Because it hurts when you put pressure on it. Yes. Look here. Yes, it also hurts when you put pressure on it. Up. Down. There. So. Now I have my hand underneath. Now I'm going to put pressure on it from the front. Here. You look at the ceiling. And just let me sink in a bit here. Okay, inhale. Exhale. Relax. Okay? Uh-huh. So the vertebrae was firm. But I was actually able to sink through quite well. And did you notice the crack? Yes. And does it hurt? No. Good. Okay. Then please sit here at the edge again. Go up a little further. Now I'll make the area up here a little more free. I'll pull you up to the back for that. I'll show you that in a moment. Slide a little further back, please. And then I have my hands wet. Exactly. Fold nicely. Like this. Yes. And then let me go through here once. Through there. Here too. So, I'll show you that. I'll pull you back up there. Does that work or does it hurt? No, it doesn't hurt yet. It shouldn't hurt right away either. Breathe in. Out. Okay. Good. Relatively held, right? Did it hurt here? No. In this area? Uh-huh. Okay. I have to take a look. Let go. So. This was to reduce pressure here. I don't really have a rotation here. But I don't know yet if that's enough to get the pressure out of here. I'll have to look at it again in a moment. What is important to me now is the rotation of the spine. And that's always my finger test, how well I get through. I like that very much at first. Okay, good. Let's leave it in that area once. Then I'll put you on your back again, please. Then let's take a look at what the spine should be like on your back. Do me a favor. Give me your hands. Once here. And now you just breathe in and out and concentrate on your hands. Lift them a little bit. And. And see you again. Then the hip comes in a little more movement. Lift your head a little bit. Good. You can put it down again. So. Does it hurt again? It hurts again. And the movement now, by the way, this inclination to the left. Inclination to the left. Do you still feel it in the thoracic spine? Or up here in the cervical spine? Can you describe that again? Yes, rather up in the cervical spine. So it has already ... So you're more on the side now. I would rather say that it's more in the back, right on the back, where it hurts. So here, you mean. Somewhere there. Yes, yes. So, due to the blockage in the thoracic spine, a lot of tension has built up in the cervical spine. However, as I said earlier, it feels more like you have already built up a lot of tension professionally and on a daily basis. I'll take that out a little bit now. You can easily take your arms off your body again. Here it is difficult. Try the shoulders. Exactly. Super. Very good. That hurts already. That hurts again, right? Yes. Wait. Look to the left, please. Around, around. Good. Exactly. A little more. Good. And back in the middle. And once to the right. Come around. Around, around. Further, further, further, further, further, further, further, further. Good. Good, good, good. And in the middle again. It's really time. Colson, your body once said, hey, someone has to take care of that. I think I'll block the thoracic vertebrae. Very good that you are here today. Good. Okay. Just breathe through. So you have a cervical spine here. You have two things. That's once here on the right, the fifth. It's a little rotated. And here it is the third on the left. I have to straighten them again. It may be that due to this misalignment your thoracic vertebrae said no, I don't want to anymore. And it feels like they've been there for a long time. Okay. Good. I'll show you what I'm doing now. Yes, that you have an idea first. And then let's see if that relaxes you a bit. And then we'll talk about it again. We have to make sure that the tension in your neck area is not uncomfortable. That I've already got it down enough. Otherwise you'll say, watch out, Thomas, that pulls me too much. And then I don't even need to try it. I'll show you where I'm going. And you tell me if that's okay for you. So I have to bring the head over here. And then you need it there. Is that okay? That's okay. Feels pretty good so far. Good. You just let your head hang a little bit. Release in front. Exactly. Good. Inhale. Exhale. Good. Yes, it's always a bit ... Did that pull a little bit before? I don't know. Your shoulder came up a bit. But you didn't say anything. And I actually got through quite well. So I continued. So you didn't feel any pull or anything else before? No, I don't think so. Okay, great. Perfect. But maybe subconsciously you tense up a bit. Because you think, my neck is still there. What is he doing there? You think a little bit, maybe I can look at my back. Yes, classic movement from a good place to do it. Maybe I'll get involved again. The interesting thing is, if you look at what I did with your head later, you'll think, oh, the head wasn't that far around. It always feels completely different. When you see it later, you'll notice, the head is actually not that far around. But that's always a bit irritating at first. You did that really well. I got in there well. Now I just said it was down here. I have to change that again. We do almost the same thing, just that I go to a different table. Now we have to look here, too. How is that for you? That's okay. Good. Okay, inhale. Exhale. Yes. Weird, ey. That's weird, right? Yes, that was a bit much now. C5 is of course ... We have a problem with your thoracic vertebrae. Upper thoracic vertebrae, lower cervical vertebrae and the transition. You noticed that very clearly again. You had seven cervical vertebrae. That was the fifth now. The lower ones came along right away. They were also blocked. It's always a bit difficult for me. I can still feel C5 well here. And then your pronounced muscles come here. Well. Through sport. Unfortunately, the neck is always ... It gets more difficult with the keys. But that was good. And that worked out really well. After that, it is always advisable to have a sip of water. And we both do that now. Okay, so we've done the mobilization now. And we have another two minutes of break. Robert asked something interesting again, namely ... I asked if it is often the case that a patient comes to you and has a blockade. You put your magical hand on it and it is completely gone after the treatment. Yes. Or whether it takes a few days afterwards. Exactly. As I said, yes, it can happen that it is gone immediately. But most of the time it is a process of one, two, possibly three days where everything shrinks a bit again. You always have to balance. It's not just a snap and that's it. But you have to maintain the soft part, the muscles. The muscles also bring the fascia into balance. And after such a treatment, the body can still be extremely stressed. And that builds up. Often it is even so that after such a treatment, the next day it can be that it even gets a little worse at first. That you have a primary inflammation. You have to imagine that your body was already on its way to accept that this is the case. And I do it again urgently. But that also changes and stays that way again. Accordingly, there are both possibilities. But most of the time it is such a relief. Yes, you can feel it. But it is completely gone after the treatment. Most of the time not immediately. I have said that again and again in the videos. The behavior after the treatment is incredibly important. No effort. No one-sided movements. Pay attention to the posture a bit. That is very important. Go for a walk. You have to imagine that when you go, the vertebral muscles move, rotate back and forth. With you, a few vertebrae have not done that at all. They have been held down. They can now move again. And then it's great when you go for a walk. That is very important after the treatment. For example, before you get in the car, you will go for a short walk outside. Because if you sit down right away, worst case, it can be that immediately a vertebra is out again. It can be. You have to be realistic. But that's why you have to prepare for it. You have to consider that in the next three days, you call it vulnerable, so vulnerable. Your body is in a vulnerable phase, so that it can always put something back. Therefore, the less stress, the better. And even if you work now, make sure that you still get more in motion than usual. So not just sitting. Okay? Good. You can actually sit like that. So what was very obvious was your pectoral vertebra here. It was rotated to the right. I stopped right here. We rotated it back to the middle. I made a little space up here. But that was very tight. But I solved that now, above all, via your fifth cervical vertebra here. And the chain also came loose here. Down here. Maybe you noticed that it wasn't just like that. So there were several in a row. And then I released the third one on the left side. Now we have to see what your muscles are doing. Because I wasn't that intense in the muscles and in the fascia. Look to the left, please. Okay, tell me something about pulling back here or down here or whatever. Somewhere here. Somewhere there. So do you mean here or more like down there? Okay, I really can't tell you. Difficult. But that's also relatively normal, this diffuse. Look to the right, please. Okay, good. Look forward again. Go to the side again. Now look to the left again, please. So, left, you see, it's still a bit difficult. You can't get up to 90 degrees there. Look to the right. You can get up to 90 degrees there. Look forward. You didn't have both before, but the left is still a bit limited. However, despite the result, I am really satisfied with that. But always the chin towards the chest, please. It's still a bit slowed down, in any case. And look forward. Good. Give me a feedback. How far? Good. It's better. Okay, good. I didn't want to hear that. It doesn't shine so much in the front area anymore, I have the feeling. But good. Then, I just wanted to be aware of that. How is the rotation? The rotation was significantly limited on both sides. We already have the right one free. The left one still takes a while. But that will come in the next few days. And if not, I will work on the muscles again. You should make sure that you put a little more heat on your neck area in the next few days. That would be quite good. Because there were really intense blockades. The interesting thing was, I think, that you didn't hear your main blockade at all. But you heard it, right? In the head. Huh? In the head movement. No, no, in the thoracic spine. In the first movement, where I pushed from the front. You noticed that, right? It cracked really well in the back. It wasn't as loud to the outside. But it was really tight. And the C5 was mega tight. And then it can always be that the muscles around it have to be more flexible. And you can do that well with heat. Not directly on the cervical spine, not on the spine, but here, sideways, here in this area. Okay? I don't care. And then what we talked about earlier. Actually, that's the most important thing. Okay. That you follow that first. And if you should feel anything after three days, if anything is still there. Then just say normal. Then we'll do it again. Okay? All right. Good. Thanks for your questions. Always good. If something is unclear, you always asked immediately. I thought that was great. So, anything unclear? All good. All excited? Gladly. First of all, thank you for making yourself available. So spontaneously. And yes, we hope you enjoyed the video again. And if you liked it, just give us a thumbs up. Subscribe to our channel.
