cranial sacral therapy and Rolfing for TMJ

What do you think of this therapy for treating TMJ. I just had my second treatment and am already feeling better. She said I was very blocked on the right side from previous trauma. She was feeling the fluids pulsing in my head! Is this for real?!
Thanks
Also I have had my first rolfing session. Amazing! Well worth the money.

I've done both. When I was a month shy of shunting a large meningocele (extracranial/extraspinal cerebrospinal fluid "jello bag") subsequent to brain tumor removal 13 years ago, one craniosacral session was all it took to eliminate the meningocele permanently by the next morning. It started to shrink during the treatment. A neurosurgeon's comment was (along with the glzed stare), "it was coincidence." Uh huh...

Rolfing...for some it releases stored traumas and is physically painful. For me it's the best deep tissue massage I ever had and knocks me out cold on the massage table. I did an initial 10 sessions and budget notwithstanding find it imperative to do 1 monthly "tune up" to "open up" my chest per month. I'm blessed with a master Rolfer. Remember Jack La Lanne, the exercise king? He even goes to her regularly.

Lots of luck!

Namaste'

Thank you for your time to respond. It helps to have these things validated. Our thinking tends to be one demensional sometimes. So my pain has been an opportunity and a wake up call. Nice.

Congratulations, Rona.

You are on your way. Consider how much you appreciated Kyra's personal experience. Thanks, Kyra! I hope you will continue to share YOUR experiences as you get well.

Yes, Rona, they are "for real".

Don't forget your SR.
