I came to the chiropractic center because I was in pain and I was unable to sleep at night. I had been to my family doctor and to an orthopedic doctor. After numerous tests and examinations, I was told I had a sore muscle and it would heal.
Months later, I was still experiencing pain. Years of bending over my second graders had taken it's toll. The fall from the hayride and lifting my dad when he was bedridden didn't help either.
Following my very first treatment, I was able to sleep through the night. What a tremendous relief - both physically and emotionally for me. The best part of the treatment lies in not having to take drugs or requiring surgery. Also, I was very much part of the healing process as I needed to become a guardian of my spine. I attended the orientation meeting, raised the reading table in my class, bought a lumbar pillow, a contoured sleeping pillow and replaced a 10 year(+) plus matress. I also do exercises to strengthen my back. It is a rewarding feeling to be able to take charge of my health and feel in control.
Another benefit of attending the chiropractic center, is the tender care I receive while I am here - from my examination and subloxation treatment to the physical theraphy I receive. The prevalent attitude here at the center is one of gentle care - given with an emphasis on the patient's responsibility and ownership of the return to good health and a continuation of the maintenance of that health.
Tell someone you love, to have their spine checked, encourage them to have a chiropractic exam before they experience pain. "Get on their back," they'll love you for it!
