Hi DM,like a few others on here I gained some weight after the crani and that was primarily the cause of a few aches and pains. My chiropractor was not keen to go anywhere near the head for a while but he did get me into doing more work on my arms legs back etc.
Shane makes sense with natural remedies, and I'm going to take his advise onboard.
Look for positives, DM, and my best wishes to you.

Hi DM, I have had aches & pains since surgery (July 2009) especially on my right side, the weak side. Like the others, I have had different therapy but now with the warmer weather, I am finding that a daily swim is really helping me a lot. I am not a strong swimmer but excercising in water is much better and no where as painful. I hope this helps, take care!
