Symptoms of Chronic Illness

The brain creates all sensory experiences.The brain is by no means perfect. It can interpret safe situations as dangerous. It can also make mistakes in the way it processes sensory information. Vision is determined by the visual cortex, not the retina; Taste is determined by the primary gustatory cortex rather than the tongue; Hearing is determined by the auditory cortex, not the ear.

​

Our brain is so clever at learning new skills - but sometimes those new skills involve repeating pain patterns or chronic symptoms. 

Symptoms we work with

  • Chronic fatigue

  • Post exertional malaise

  • Chronic back pain

  • Migraines

  • MCS - Multiple Chemical Sensitivities

  • POTS- Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome

  • IBS - Irritable Bowel Syndrome

  • Neuropathies

  • Paresthesia - burning, tingling, numbness

  • Pelvic pain syndromes

  • Fibromyalgia

  • Skin conditions

  • Dizziness

  • Chronic Nausea

  • Anxiety

  • Mild depression

​

We can work with anything that has been ruled out as structural. For example we do not work with acute issues of pain or conditions such as infections, cancers, autoimmune and broken bones/torn ligaments.
