"I
am now a believer in the ALF treatment
and the connection with the
craniosacral system of our body.
I have attended regular dental visits
and adhered to a daily regiment of
brushing and flossing since I was 5
years old. In my 30s, I began to
experience symptoms of TMJ (clinching
and grinding my teeth with periodic
jaw aches and cracking my
molars). On three different
occasions, my dentist fitted me with a
mouth guard to prevent my teeth from
further cracking, which I also
broke.
I researched my
problem and talked to dental
specialists who recommended invasive
surgery and of course, pain.
After 2 root canals and every molar
tooth capped, I noticed Dr. Maribel
Vann's article. I met with her
for a consultation in 2004 and began
the ALF treatment to correct
"right torsion cranial
strain". I also followed
Dr. Vann's recommendation to have
cranial sacral therapy. Quite
frankly, I was skeptical and referred
to the whole process as
"voodoo". Strangely
enough, I found the combination of
treatments effective and
amazing.
Additionally,
working with Dr. Vann created a warm
and pleasant experience. Of
course, I was concerned about pain and
did experience minor discomfort for
about a day after some of the ALF
adjustments, which was handled with
Tylenol or Advil. During the
last 6 months of my treatment, I wore
braces, which did create periodic
minimal pain.
After 2 years of
treatment, my bite fits properly, my
smile is straight, I am free from jaw
pain and most important, I am not
clinching and grinding my teeth.
I am now a believer in the treatment
and therapy supported by Dr. Vann with
the overall harmony of the cranial
mechanism with the entire body."
