Head Cyst causing headaches and snoring

29 Oct 2011

Murray is a 53 year old builder who had a brain cyst about 15 CM long that was discovered in 2003. Due to the complicated conditions, the cyst is unable to be removed surgically. Since then Murray has constant headaches, noisy snoring and a lack of energy. After a series of Chinerchi therapy, Murray has stopped snoring; the constant headache has reduced about 80 % and also he lost a few kilos of weight. Now he is continuing with treatment. We wait to see the headache totally gone then a scan test will find out if the cyst size has been reduced.

Review of the treatment
The majority of noisy snoring is caused by a restricted airflow at the back of the throat. This happens when the soft tissues at the back of the throat close up so air has to be forced through. This closing up happens when asleep because the jaw muscles at the back of the throat go slack, so the lower jaw and tongue fall back, constricting the airway. This effect is made worse by lying on your back, causing the lower jaw to fall back more. Snoring is also worse when overweight, or relaxed after a drink or two. The reason the soft tissues at the back of the throat close up is the soft tissues become enlarged and swollen.

Chinerchi improves the blood circulation plus water retention is reduced and enlargement disappears, therefore the airway opens as normal. Thus snoring stopped. For the same reason the brain tissues were swollen so when water retention is reduced the headache is also reduced.
