Science couldn't find the pain
But scientists keep on searching beneath it.
Complete incompetence
Medicine is progressing rapidly, but many fundamental health problems remain unresolved.
There is no existing remedy that works for:
• Back pain,
• Pain in the knees,
• Pain in the feet,
• Hip pain
• Pain in the neck and shoulders,
• Stomach aches,
• Headaches
• Pain in the arms and hands,
• ...

The pain is in the skin
Cutaneous pain is the only pain that really hurts
Only your skin is equipped with enough nerve endings and pain receptors to produce the acute pain you feel.
Muscles, joints and organs have few compared to the skin.
The pain they produce is dull and widely spread, in comparison to the localized stinging sensation of skin pain.

Everybody is looking for pain in the wrong places
The pain that comes from cutaneous fold crossings is so intense and acute that everybody thinks that it comes from beneath their skin, and that it's caused by some damage to internal organs, bones, muscles, ligaments, ...
Even pain specialists in varied fields such as: medicine, surgery, chiropractic, massage, acupuncture, naturopathy, homeopathy, osteopathy, ... all think that the pain resides beneath the skin.
It is this conviction; that the pain is too intense to originate from the skin itself, that stops people from trying to reach it with their fingers and nails.
Pain specialists are doing a good job at keeping this myth alive, while making profits with useless and ineffective treatments.
Grooming proves that the source of most pain is not beneath the skin, but in the folds of the skin itself.
Anybody can check this out on their own body.
So, everybody is looking for pain in the wrong places, while it is simply located inside their skin folds.
Cutaneous pain can be excruciating.
Just one painful fold crossing can ruin your whole day.
Articulations can’t hurt; they don’t feel
Articulations are poorly equipped in nerve endings and pain receptors.
They only hurt when badly forced out of position.
Your skin has entangled itself into the articulation and is now caught inside its mechanism.
That’s what hurts.
Your articulations were conceived to withstand at least three times the wear and tear you've put them through.
Unless you're severely overweight or a professional athlete; your articulations are practically new.
Misunderstood cutaneous pain
Researchers didn't put their finger on the problem
How could millions of scientists, doctors and researchers be so incompetent?
They haven't been able to locate where the pain comes from for dozens of common ailments such as: pain in the knees, pain in the shoulders, pain in the feet, pain in the neck, ...
They leave millions of people suffering; while offering them pain killers or costly and useless operations.
The presence of so many pain clinics only proves their inefficacy.
Using the wrong tools
Researchers use fancy microscopes and sophisticated scanning/imaging instruments instead of using their fingers and nails.
I can understand why they're having difficulties finding pain with a microscope; pain isn't visible; it's feel-able.
Why use those tools, when you can easily locate the pain with your nails?
Finding your pain in your skin
Grooming proves that the source of most aches and pains is not beneath the skin, but inside the folds of the skin itself; at the fold crossings.
You don't need any expensive apparatus to check that out for yourself.
Let the pain itself guide your finger to its source and press your nail into your skin.
Nociceptors
Only your skin is packed with nociceptors
You sense pain through specialized nerve endings in your skin, all over your body, called «nociceptors».
NOCICEPTORS |
![]() |
The average concentration of nociceptors on one square inch of skin is 1,300.
You will only find a small fraction of this in organs, muscles, ligaments, ...

Even though there are tens of thousands of nociceptors on your body, each one has its own connection to the brain.
Some travel through your spinal cord while others go directly.
When a nociceptor is aggressed, it transmits the information along dedicated nerve fibers to the brain.

If, anywhere along its route, the nerve is folded or crushed; its signal won't get to the brain, or only part of it.
Swelling and bloating
Swelling and bloating increase the tension in your cutaneous folds and their crossings; thus increasing the pain
Swelling of the body's skin occurs frequently even in healthy people.
It's an accumulation of fluid in the tissues that is greater than normal.
It can be generalized, or only some areas can be affected.
Swelling can have numerous causes including fatigue, anxiety, an upset stomach, high blood pressure, PMS, pregnancy, œdema, ...
However, the swelling has many side-effects, mainly on the skin.

When the swelling occurs, the skin gets unusually stretched.
This creates extra tension at the places where the skin is attached to what is beneath it; like at folds crossings.
Pain can appear in your skin, because your folds and their crossings become painful, or more painful than usual, caused by the extra tightness.
This explains why your symptoms may be much worse on days when your skin is swollen.
Grooming your skin to eliminate the pain
Freeing yourself from your pain is as simple as pressing your nail where it hurts.

Be careful, go slowly and test groom
Precautions and care must be taken when grooming your skin to take away the pain.
Grooming the affected areas may provoke unknown reactions and even increase the pain.
Test-groom the regions for a few days before committing yourself to deeper work or exploration.
Be smart and go gradually.
Groom for short periods, several times a day, until the pain disappears.
