Case Study of the Month- May 2011
Billy-
Last winter, I slipped on some ice and suffered severe back pain. I thought I’d just take it easy for a day or two hoping the pain would disappear. It did not happen, in fact by Saturday (I had fallen on Tuesday), the pain was so bad I couldn’t stand it any longer. I called every Chiropractor in the telephone book with no luck finding anyone in on a Saturday until my (now) Chiropractor answered her phone and said she would see me that day. I thought she must be an angel!
My pain decreased almost immediately but it took a couple of weeks for me to say I was pain free. The best thing, however, was that I got another response I did not expect. I have suffered from ear pain for most of my life due to chronic ear infections as a child which destroyed my eardrum. For the past 15 years I have used some very expensive ear drops (sometimes 3 times a day) whenever my ear hurt. At week three into care, I realized I hadn’t used the drops for weeks because I no longer had ear pain.
My Chiropractor explained that the pressure in my ears being so exaggerated was from the nerve pressure in my spine and with chiropractic care, that pressure was lowered and thus my pain was relieved. I highly recommend chiropractic care to everyone I come in contact with now. As for me, I am on maintenance now and plan to be a lifelong patient with this practice.
