Kelli had arranged an emergency session at her doctor’s surgery, not her normal one, another from the practice, to help her with her sleep problem.
Interestingly she didn’t have a bad sleep last night, sure she awoke at five, but was able to get back to sleep.
Now, as I have mentioned before, I am still sceptical about certain parts of her treatment, and I sit in the room, maybe asking questions others won’t. I wouldn’t mind a job where I listen to my patients talk about their problems for half an hour and charge them for the privilege.
So I said that the treatment Kelli had last week didn’t work, what can they do this time to change that? The only answer they could use was that she needed “more work”.
When deprived of sleep, it makes her angry that usually she can’t drop off again. Now the liver is the anger organ, so that is what they focus.
I reminded the doctor that Kelli has been on this trip for four years, she has consumed more supplements than I care to imagine, and still it needs “ more work”.
I have tried to understand pre-menopausal symptoms, but every woman is different, so there is no one fits all solution, and that’s the problem.
Anger doesn’t help in situations like this, in fact it’s creates the very anxiety that will affect the liver, which hinders good sleep. Kelli understands that, she has to fight the anger.
After more acupressure on her feet and ankles her time was up, we now face the coming night to gauge if the treatment has helped.
