Relieving MOST foot pain

I want to report on an important discovery.

There is a simple way to relieve almost all foot pain, with notable exceptions. It uses NO drugs, machines, and only a few cents of equipment. It is VERY VERY gentle. It takes 8 min per foot but I am working on simple tools you can make at home to speed it up considerably.

It is FREE to learn. Go to RRRTV.net and scroll down to the video panel and choose foot. There are procedures for the whole body there if you want.

Side effects: Immediate pain relief, return of full available ROM, disappearance of all trigger points in the released body part.

Relief lasts until the next pain initiating event. In RA: the next attack, In plantar fasciitis pain slowly returns with weight bearing and continued tearing of the fasciae, In OA it returns as bone on bone recurs pain. In CRPS, if it works (which is most cases) or Fibro (so far worked on all cases attempted) it is permanent.

I am currently about 40 subjects into a RCCT with >90% pain remission so far.

The book is now a FREE download as well.

I have points for the Hand and several additional releases which I would be happy to share and I have done a lot of literature review and believe I have a workable theory as to why it works, which I presented to IFAF in Hawaii (virtually) last fall.

If you cannot see a connection between Podiatry and foot pain relief, maybe you should consider plumber instead of podiatrist as a career path.

If it does not work you are either pressing in the wrong spots or more commonly you are pressing too hard. Lighten up to the pressure you would push on your own eyeball.

Good luck with this….it is in its infancy and there is much to learn about it….but it works almost every time.

Contraindications: Gout, neuropathy (although most people are misdiagnosed), and Polymyalgia Rheumatica. I believe it will also fail on ischemic lesions, viral pain, expanding lesion pain (tumors) and many forms of dermatological pain.

I will gladly share whatever I know and have experienced on the several hundred people I have performed this on. We all have had patients whom we do everything right and they still have lingering pain. This will usually fix it and deliver you a satisfied patient. DONT BELIEVE ME….TRY IT BEFORE YOU STICK YOU FOOT IN YOUR MOUTH.

 

Acupressure?

 

Possibly, I also thought this, except the points are not the same and the way these points are pressed is quite different. Firstly, the pressure MUST be extremely gentle. If you press too hard, you stimulate the stretch receptor, which are excitatory for pain. Easy to prove; do any stretch…you feel pain. The corpuscle of Rufini, free nerve endings, Meisner Corpuscles and Golgi tendon organs are all excitatory for pain. Only Meisner corpuscle and the Corpuscle or Pacini are inhibitory. My theory is that the Corpuscle of Pacini is the deep light touch receptor that I believe is responsible for this phenomena. It’s outer 20-60+ layers of peri-neural, membranes are of mesenchymal origin like Schwann cells and Glial cells. Then there is a thickened more fibrous membrane and then a smaller number (about 10) layers of membrane of neural crest origin. This HUGE nerve ending (2.8 x 1.2 mm) is visible to the naked eye; yet it can “feel” ONE MICRON of motion; Something about 1/2800 th of it’s size. This much motion could have NO effect on the inner membranes, but it still fires. This is accomplished by touching the first, outermost membrane to the second (done by squeezing out the Extra Cellular Matrix (ECM) and then with no time to recover, the next signal (to feel the next bump in a textured surface) it pushes the first two membranes into the third. And so on, and so on, until it reaches the inner core. When these membranes are finally pushed together, you create what seems like a “short circuit” draining charge from the glial cells surrounding the inter-neuron in the 3 neuron positive peripheral feedback loop we call chronic pain.

That being said, it is certainly an accurate application of gentle pressure; so you could call it that. Enough for now.

 

Second the pressure is not vertical to the skin. You press very lightly on the skin; just enough to engage static friction. The skin on your fingers can remain stationary with the study subject’s skin and the corrective force is applied parallel to the skin surface in ONE DIRECTION ONLY!!! Also, if possible, the force is applied perpendicular to the direction of the fibers of the underlying connective tissue (usually a ligaments but not always). The actual release occurs in 10-100 seconds and is observed as a detachment of the skin and fat from the deep fascia. As the release occurs, the skin slides over the deep fasciae. This is a dramatic change that occurs quickly. The 10 to 100 seconds is the time to compress the outer layers into each other while flying under the radar of the excitatory stretch receptors. You cannot cause pain and relieve it simultaneously. Only the inner core can RESET the excitability of the interneuron by discharging its glial cells.

 

In 2016 IFAF Hawaii, I demonstrated the Foot and Gastroc-Soleus release on a podiatrist from San Francisco. He measured -10 degrees of painful dorsiflexion on each ankle before and +25 degrees of painless dorsiflexion after release. In 2019, I rechecked his dorsiflexion at the IFAF Hawaii conference again and it remained +25 and still pain free.
