Story:
I suffered with sciatica, which is pain that starts in the buttock and goes down the thigh and can go as far as the foot, for a few months. I used to do aerobics and lift weights 5x/week, and when I got sciatica I couldn't even go for a fast walk, it was too painful. Sitting was uncomfortable too. I gained weight, I was sluggish and I wasn't feeling as well as I normally did. I went to an orthopedic doctor and he told me he didn't find anything wrong with me, that I should rest and take ibuprofen. Well I did that for a month and nothing changed, I was still suffering.
A friend recommended a Chiropractor. I had never been before and wasn't sure what they did but I went. And finally I started getting better after Chirppractic care. The amazing thing was, in addition to my sciatica going away my allergies went away. I had allergies for 15 years and I had to take prescription drugs twice a day in order to be outside. I used to get shots too when I was younger. I was so thrilled with the health improvements but didn't understand why Chiropractic helped my overall health and allergies. So I asked how and why it happened. I learned that getting my spine adjusted helped my immune system get stronger because of the connection between the nervous system and the immune system.
Chiropractic care can help many health problems get better if the main cause is coming from nerve interference. It's not just for pain. I know of many many stories of how Chiropractic helped people feel better and become healthier overall and improved their quality of life. I can't imagine life without getting Chiropractic care on a regular basis. It's a part of my health and fitness routine just like going to the gym to exercise and eating wholesome foods.
