Stress. 19-07-241

Gentleman.

Possible cause.

Though in denial that he had a stress problem, he had suffered bereavement.

Response to treatment.

Not relaxed

One treatment. It was observed that one foot was slightly tilted outwards. He admitted that the ache from it kept him awake at night. I said that I would treat the ankle on his next visit, as he did not have time for more treatment.

Comments.

“Not too bad. No noticeable change” (The usual contradiction from people with stress.)

Came for the second treatment thanked me for my care and consideration. I sensed that he did not want me to treat him, so we agreed that he would call me if he decided to have another session. No further contact.

This was a typical scenario for someone with stress.
