"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..."
EIGHTY FIVE PERCENT PAIN GONE AFTER FIRST ADJUSTMENT
In march 2001, I injured my left knee and was experiencing much pain. It caused me to stop walking for exercise and it even woke me at night with painful throbbing. I went to my medical doctor, who took x-rays of the bones, found no problem, and put me on an exercise program for a month and told me to swim for exercise. I joined gold’s gym, began aerobic exercise in the pool, and also got a personal trainer for a while, still no relief from the pain.
After the month, I went to an orthopedic surgeon who had an MRI done and found the cause of the pain-torn cartilage. He scheduled arthroscopic surgery the first of August. Fortunately I talked to an AlignLife doctor one day in the exercise area of the gym. I was dreading the fact that I would be two weeks in Hawaii in July for my son’s wedding and walking was so painful. He encouraged me to let him evaluate the condition.
I was very reluctant! I didn’t know anything about chiropractic care but I was sure it was all smoke and mirrors. Well, my doctor can be very persuasive. Knowing I was leaving in two weeks, he realty wanted to get started. My initial visit took place that same day. He took x-rays, did other evaluations and did my first adjustment right then. I was very apprehensive.
I could not believe it!! When I got up from my first adjustment, 85% of the pain I had since March was gone! It took me one more week to decide to cancel my surgery. My son’s wedding was great and so was our vacation! I could walk with much less pain! My doc has been working on spinal subluxations and my knee ever since (also some TMJ pain). I am now back to pain free walking. The tear in the cartilage must be healing or healed. I also take glucosamine to help that process.
I now encourage my friends to visit AlignLife if they wish to heal naturally. I never would have believed it if it hadn’t happened to me.
