"When I first met the doctors of AlignLife at the Small Business Expo, they noticed immediately that I held myself crooked and asked me if I was experiencing any back pain. I had noticed for over 10 years that I favored one side, and it was getting progressively worse and more noticeable...."
The first time my back was injured I was only 19 yr.’s old. I was employed as a nurse’s aide and a junior in nursing college both of which require a great deal of moderate to heavy lifting as well as bending, standing, walking, and stamina. Although I felt I had used proper body mechanics my back gave out. I couldn’t walk for several days due to muscle spasms. And pain in my lower back.
My M.D. prescribed muscle relaxants and ibuprofen so I slept several days away. Over the next several years I had the same problems every time I did a little too much. Five years ago I hurt my back again so much that I was not able to walk for a few weeks. My doctor at he time ordered numerous diagnostic tests including; x-rays, ct scan (should have been an MRI), and a bone scan. I continued to experience a constant ache in my back that radiating to my hip area at times.
The pain increased in severity and had limited my activities for four months when Greg and I became engaged. We both knew the benefits Greg had received from his chiropractic care from Dr. Esposito. I was still fearful though to even have my back touched. I was in so much pain though and promised I would try it out. One week after I moved back to Bloomington I had my first adjustment and after the second one the pain ceased.
Finally, after ten years of living with some type of severity of pain, IT IS GONE!
Now I’m sorry I didn’t seek chiropractic care sooner. As a registered nurse I’ve taken care of many patients who have undergone cervical dissertations, lumbar problems, or fusions and certainly did not want to endure that especially at such a young age. As for activities I still did a lot but would definitely pay for it during and afterwards. Right now it’s the simple things I’m enjoying like sleeping or not having to worry about my back bothering me. They said someday I would thank Greg for getting me here and I already have. Thank you all for your wonderful care.
