During a typical session the patient will be sitting in a chair, and the practitioner will perform the manipulations on the head, neck, and abdomen, and in some cases the patient will lie on a treatment table and some spinal manipulations are applied.
The practitioner will use multiple techniques that target various parts of the Trigeminal nerve, applying pressure, massage and other innovative procedures to undo nociceptive hyper reactivity in the brain.
MBSR based instructions as well as body relaxation and abdominal breathing are utilized to kickstart a parasympathetic response, bringing the patient back to equilibrium.
