Question
My boyfriend fell down stairs and hurt his tail-bone. He ate dinner afterwards, but a little while later his stomach felt "weird" and since then - it's been a few hours - he gets bouts of feeling woozy. Any ideas.

Thank you very much.

Answer
Well, a fall shocks a person.  There's a reaction in the nervous system.

If it doesn't clear up by itself in a day or two, or if he has lasting tailbone pain, he should see a practitioner.

The muscles closest to the spine are those that contract in tailbone pain.  He would need to relearn to relax them.
