Treatment policy

Follow-up

• First time: Palpitations and stiff shoulders after eating improved.
• Third time: Symptoms have been alleviated, but symptoms still remain.
• Fifth time: I visited the hospital because I had tinnitus, and I loosened my temporomandibular joint because of clenching.
• 8th time: It seems that the antidepressant was increased in the psychosomatic medicine department. As a result, palpitation completely disappeared, but neck/shoulder stiffness and headache became stronger.
• 10th time: Tinnitus was alleviated, but the feeling of ear closure remained.
• 13th time: It was decided to increase the number of antidepressants to the maximum amount. As the result, She had stiff shoulders and numbness in my limbs. It was determined that the cause of this stiff shoulder and sweetbread was pressure on the nerve due to muscle tone in the facet joints of the spinal column.
  By loosening it, stiff shoulders and sweetbread were eliminated.
