hey guys Dr. Berg here in this video we’re going  to talk about neuroma pain now what is a neuroma  

it’s basically fibrous tissue that’s scar tissue  that wraps around a nerve at the bottom of your  

foot making it very difficult to walk and it’s  usually between to what’s called metatarsals which  

are the bones in your foot which I will show you  in just a moment okay so it’s a scar tissue that  

wraps around the nerve that makes it very painful  to move your foot or walk on it now what causes  

neuroma neuromas or Morton neuromas they don’t  know but I believe it comes from an old injury  

which is going to relate to how I’m going to show  you how to get rid of the pain but I believe this  

technique I’m going to show you is the only way  you’re going to knock out pain without drugs and  

surgery you want to see I’ll show you okay guys  this is how you do it number one let’s pretend she  

has pain right here and these are the metatarsals  these extensions of these toes right through here  

okay so usually going to have a neuroma like  right about here or here maybe right here now  

what you’re going to do you’re going to press on  the opposite foot that mirrors the image of where  

that neuroma is so if it’s between this little  pinky one to mark now between this little toe  

and this tail right here you’ll press between  this little toe in this toe on the mirror image  

opposite side now when I press on the opposite  side what you’re going to notice it’s going to  

hurt like hell okay so go light and you can do  this on yourself if you like pain now just going  

you could do this on yourself or get someone else  to do it but the key is pressing on the opposite  

foot no one does this what they’re going to do  is are going to work on where the injury was do  

therapy it’s going to make it worse especially if  you got surgery for it it’s like a reit Ramah it’s  

like hitting your thumb over and over again so  we’re going to press on the up to side and you’re  

going to just massage it and you’re going to find  oh my gosh that’s still painful in fact this side  

will be more painful than this side when you press  on it but not normally now go light the first time  

okay so you’re actually sending a signal up to  the brain to turn these pain signals off that’s  

what you’re doing so you’re working on the nerve  signals because it’s not a feedback loop this foot  

is connected to this foot through the spinal  column okay now here’s a little trick what  

you want to do the way that you know you found  the exact spot is to find the point of the most  

pain okay so you might want to go up a little bit  down to the left to the right and you’re going to  

hit like the epicenter of the pain and then what  you’re going to do is you’re going to just stay on  

that point and work that and then what you can do  you can you know ask yourself how is this feeling  

now and I like to rate it can being really bad  zero being no pain and I keep you know kind of  

rating the pain it’s going to come down down down  down down till it’s at zero it’s gone but what  

happens is this pain original pain might shift it  might move over to the left right up or down so  

what you do is you just move your finger to the  opposite or mirroring mirroring that pain and  

keep working that out until all the pain is gone  okay now what’s going to happen you’re going to  

decide it’s going to feel really really good okay  you’re going to walk on it and then the next day  

you’re going to do it again and this might even  be a little sore so you want to go light at first  

until finally over like a week or two when it’s  like really minimal okay this doesn’t necessarily  

correct the neuroma it gets rid of the pain from  the neuroma it’s a great technique in fact it’s the  

only technique that I know that’ll knock the pain  out better than any drug or surgery without the  

side effects okay so go ahead and attempt this  at your own risk and put your comments below
