A Happy New Year to all who have read this story and supported me over the last extraordinary year of my life. 2018 was indeed the year when I finally went from phobia to freedom in just a few remarkably short weeks and also buried some long outstanding flashback issues from decades prior into the bargain.
As my next cleaning looms for next week (Tuesday 26th February 2019 AD) in the meantime an update following an ongoing problem that had been raging alongside the daily ordeal of trying to keep my beleaguered teeth suitably clean without slinging blood and puss around between pampering from the professionals every few weeks.
I mentioned that I had been having quite extreme pain around one area of my upper jaw, in particular the vicinity of my top right number two eye tooth and its neighbours. As I suspected, it was indeed sinus related and, on a chance trip to my local osteopath, finally found solace and am now on a regular programme of treatment and care to coincide with the wonderful caring efforts of my tooth fairy Megan at "Enhance".
The treatment is basically a form of sacral cranial head massage which is largely very relaxing and I often doze off during the session, and sleep very well that night following the procedure. The therapy involves some quite intense work around the problem areas and the results are instant! Any tension or aching is gone instantly and the effects last several days at least. With the ongoing course of treatment I am hopeful that this problem will eventually subside totally and dental life will get even easier as a result. I will discuss this with my dentist as well when we next meet.
For those who are reading this in the UK and in Cambridgeshire, the lady that helped me with this was called Sally and she works at the Ely Complementary Health Centre, telephone (01353) 664 476. Ironically, this is directly opposite my dental practice! My next session is very fortunately scheduled for next Wednesday (the day after my next cleaning), so any tension or problems that had arisen from the dentistry can be swiftly settled.
Will write again next week following my next session.
