The brainstem (or brain stem) is the lower part of the brain, adjoining and structurally continuous with the spinal cord. The brain stem provides the main motor and sensory innervation to the face and neck via the cranial nerves.

Odata ce uleiul se aplica pe ceafa efectele benefice se resimt si la niv trunchiului cerebral (vezi implicatiile pct 3, spasm vascular rezolvat prin masaj si aromoterapie).
Numai asa ar avea sens masajul "brainstern"....


Research
Three months after treatment, forty patients with a whiplash injury were asked about the results. Of these patients, 26 had the uncomplicated abnormality, 6 had the complication as described under 1) and 10 had the complication as described under 4). From this it may be concluded that 2 patients had both complications. The patients were subsequently asked whether they had experienced any of the following ten complaints:

1. Cranial neuralgia: headache on top of the head; the dermatome of C-2 is the scalp.
2. Occipital neuralgia: the dermatome of C-3 is the neck and the occiput.
3. Dizziness: via irritation of the ganglion cervicale superior, which is situated against the transverse processes of C-1 and C-2 on the ventral side, vascular spasms can occur in the brainstern and these can also cause the complaints as described under 3, 4, 5, 9 and 10.
4. Concentration disorders.
5. Sleeping disorders.
6. Impaired mobility of the neck.
7. Snoring: the front end of the vertebrae forms the back of the throat. Since vertebral misalignments cause oedema around the vertebra which is visible at the dorsal side up to the point of the processus spinosus, the back of the throat will therefore also be oedematous: an oedema which may even extend as far as the uvula. This may explain complaints 7 and 8.
8. Sleep apnoea.
9. Facial neuralgia.
10. Tinnitus.
