Case Report

I had an interesting experience with a patient who happened to be a chiropractor. He had developed a problem with his left ankle that was not responding to physical therapies.

He was aware of the potential problems with root canal treated teeth and asked me to check one of his upper incisors which had root canal therapy many years before. This tooth was associated with the kidney meridian, as were two of the muscles that were weak in his ankle.
