A patient of mine was hit in the tailbone/sacrum area two years ago by a forklift. She is still struggling to recover, and I told her I would post a request for her here. She sees me once a week (when I'm not on the road) for acupuncture and QT. She feels the tailbone was shattered and all the muscles/ligaments/tissue in the area torn. She still has a lot of pain in the area, around the hips, and down her legs. She can't sit without pain. Her walking has improved (straighter, less limping), but if she does too much she pays for it! And she often does, being a single woman having to take care of herself. She often has a lot of swelling and inflamation in her abdomen in response to doing too much. She is an amazing person with incredible will to work through pain that would put most people at a standstill, and all without medication. We're working to build and support her structure, while gently showing it how to open to flow and let go some of the "armoring" it has built up simply to keep going.

Her name is Malia, in Ashland, OR.

Sending to Mailia for complete healing of her tailbone injury

A rainbow of relief, healing -- all that she needs, for as long as she needs, all things known and unknown.

I'll be happy to do distant sessions for Malia. The words "nerve entrapment, cauda equina" flew into my mind while reading her story....and of course that is indicative of nothing, it's only what came into my mind.

Thanks, everyone. Ali, that has definitely crossed my mind too, although I haven't focused on it specifically.

OUCH!!! I'll add Malia to my 24/7 list Jody. Please keep us posted as to her improvements we know she'll be making. It would also be interesting to hear of any immediate changes, or feelings since your posting today.

Hello Jody,
I know I'm not going to teach you but I got this thought in my head nagging at me, so I think there's no harm airing it.
The damage could be more on the energetic level rather than actual physical damage, causing blockages and imbalance.
What about linking the coccyx to the sphenoid bones and the sacrum to the occiput.
It may be a bit awkward to do it by yourself but she can litterally lend a hand and hold somewhere eg: the sphenoids while doing some full breathing herself.
May she find happiness

Yes, Nicky, there is definitely damage on multiple levels. The physical damage is there though. A lot of what I do when I'm working on her is open up the connecting flows of energy throughout her body. It's much better on that level than it was initally.

I saw Malia yesterday morning. She was in a lot of pain because she had to spend the day before riding the bus to Medford and go to the Social Services office. (Lots of enforced sitting on hard surfaces--besides her usual areas of pain, her hands, wrists and arms hurt a lot, which I pointed out to her was from trying to hold herself up off her tailbone.)

I won't be seeing her until May because Alain and I are leaving to teach in Amsterdam next week.

Hi Jody

My first picture after entraining was a anti clock wise twisted tailbone and a little bit bend to the left, seeing her from the back. Her sacrum and L5 (-L3?) appeared very white, not translucent as other body parts. Has Malia got more difficulties with her left leg?

Sending QT.

Yes Einar, there is definitely twist involved. The line coming down between her buttocks in no longer vertical, and she says it feels twisted inside when she goes to the toilet. In order to sit with less discomfort (when she has to) she usually perches on one side. Recently she had more pain in the right leg, but both are affected.

Hi Jody

After reading this again I get the impression that the whole sacrum is acting like a wedge. It looks like as if the sacrum is also anti clock wise twisted and pushing the pelvis apart. I guess that there a lot of blocked energy and this is the reason why I perceive it so dense white.
I'm spinal cord injured and found in the beginning of opening to flow ( opening the sacrum core 2) very uncomfortable and it took a fair while to get used to it. How does she feel after she is open to flow?
