He did not blow air up his nose. He used air to expand a small balloon-like structure within the paranasal sinuses. It is called the bilateral nasal-specific technique and it is only mastered by a small number of chiropractors. Most chiropractors and almost all medical physicians (including E.N.T. specialists) have no knowledge of this technique. A growing number of ENT-MDs are performing a similar, but much-more expensive technique known as balloon sinuplasty. George Siegfried is probably one of the most-experienced practitioners in the world at the nasal-specific technique. He does a high number of these and has had massive clinical experience with it. I was trained in the technique in school, but since I rarely perform it, I have lost my skill at it and I no longer do it. George Siegfried is 10 miles away so I simply refer my patients to him. It is mainly tried on those who have chronic headaches, sinusitis, migraine, facial pain, etc. Especially if there has been physical trauma to face/head. It is a safe procedure. It is somewhat uncomfortable, but only for a moment. It is also a technique that could use more research studies, but appears to help quite a few people.
