💊 Could Statins Be Causing Your Chronic Pain? One Patient’s Journey to Relief 💆‍♂️
Statin medications are widely prescribed to manage cholesterol, but for some, they come with unexpected and debilitating side effects. Meet John, a 51-year-old active male who started experiencing chronic pain, tension headaches, numbness, and reduced physical endurance after taking Rosuvastatin (Crestor). With no history of chronic pain, his symptoms were frustrating and unexplained—until he turned to Neurosomatic Therapy.
🔎 The Approach
Over five weeks, John received two Neurosomatic Therapy sessions per week, each lasting 90 minutes. His treatment, led by a NST student at the Center for Neurosomatic Studies, focused on:
✔️ Cross fiber friction
✔️ Pin and stretch techniques
✔️ Longitudinal gliding strokes
📊 The Results? Remarkable!
âś… 75% overall improvement in pain levels
âś… Significant relief in physical symptoms
âś… Unexpected benefits to vision đź‘€
âś… Emotional & behavioral improvements
🌟 Why This Matters
For those who are statin-intolerant, muscle pain and nerve-related symptoms can be life-altering. This case study highlights the clinical significance of Neurosomatic Therapy in addressing pain potentially triggered by statin use.
