I am a cynical person when I am perusing possible treatments for Burning Mouth.

After all, through nearly eighteen years of burning neuralgia, I have tried just about everything that has a reasonable likelihood of helping.

When this YouTube video was brought to my attention, I applied that same questioning attitude, and I must admit, between the somewhat monotone delivery of the doctor and the fact that I didn’t agree with everything he said, it was a bit of a slog. But I am glad that I stayed with it and heard about the connection between the cervical vertebrae and the multitude of major nerves that are affected by them.

I have tried chiropractic care in the past, and although it was pleasant and my Chiropractor was excellent, it did not relieve my pain to any large or lasting way. We did discover that I had a slight reversal in my cervical vertebrae, most likely caused by a minor case of whiplash in my 20s after being rear-ended.

This video highlighted the situation as a potential cause for irritation of multiple nerves, and the doctor recommended a series of exercises to both relax and minimize strain while strengthening the muscles in the neck area to better support proper posture and alignment.

I thought, “What do I have to lose?”
