My face hurt so bad I had to call in sick from work from time to time. It was so debilitating I was starting to get depressed. I called in sick from work one day and committed myself to finding help outside of my healthcare system, because that clearly was not working. I had x-ray's done, physical therapy, night guard after night guard. You name it, I tried it.
I stumbled across a site where musicians and singers post their favorite things to do in different cities across the country. I think it is a site for personal assistants for the entertainment industry. I signed up and got in... hee hee. Corey was listed in San Francisco under massage. The person wrote a raving and detailed review about her sessions with her and there were many positive comments to follow. I was way impressed.
The session is painful. I can't sugar coat that. Not the whole session but when she is working in the jaw joint, it does not feel so good. She does remind you it's only a short period of time and then your out of pain. It's true. It's true. It's true. That is my mantra while having it done. To be followed by ahhhhh that was worth it!
Corey is so comforting and the girl knows her stuff. She can explain everything in detail and in English too. Not complicated material, just broken down, simplified explanations. Knowing what is going on helps me to relax easier.
I have been out of pain for over six months. No more migraines, No more sore teeth, No more neck pain, No more calling in sick to work for facial pain!
Don't let this be misleading that Corey does all the work. She gets you out of pain, you have to do all your homework and relearn how to not hold stress in your face. Not an easy task. Her work allows you to recognize when you are holding and talk yourself out of that behavior. Your so relaxed when you walk out of her office, you are more than aware of when you start to hold.
