Are You In Pain? - Want A Real Solution?

A woman I'll call Leslie entered our office 2-3 weeks ago complaining of pain all over her body but focalized in her neck, head, and upper back. This pain had been her daily, constant (but unwelcome) companion for the previous several years. It was interfering with every aspect of her life!

She had repeatedly sought diagnostic help and treatment from her HMO doctors but was only offered pain control medication and some physical therapy. There was never a diagnosis or effort made to determine the cause, but only a method to minimize the misery!

Eventually, after much pleading for another opinion, Leslie was sent to a "specialist". She was given the label of "fibromyalgia", offered more varieties of medication for pain "management", and was told she had to learn to live with it.

We met Leslie at a seminar program where our office had a booth. We were there to meet people, discuss their health concerns, provide a brief sample of our computerized nervous system interference assessments, and then offer an opportunity for those seeking a more effective "second opinion".

Leslie acknowledged her need and scheduled an appointment. Her husband attended with her and expressed grave concern over the extreme levels of prescription drugs she was taking to simply survive her daily demands. She works full-time and is a wife and mother of four in a blended family.

Leslie has a wonderful smile and is a very nice person. We wanted to help her feel more like smiling!

X-rays of her neck showed a marked misalignment, loss of the normal curve, and some degenerative arthritis developing because the problem hadn't been recognized and corrected sooner.

The nervous system scan revealed a long-standing pattern of irritation and interference. Our evaluation on the exam table showed a major posture imbalance resulting in the appearance of a significant difference in leg length. This was coupled with multiple areas of tightness and tenderness to light pressure.

When we showed all of our findings to Leslie and her husband, and let them know we believed we could correct the underlying cause and provide a real solution, they were both excited and ready!

She received her first adjustment that day. She was pleasantly surprised at how gentle and easy the precise instrument adjustments really were.

But, not nearly as surprised as she was the following afternoon at work when something seemed strangely different.

She realized that she had forgotten to take her medication that morning. She never forgets that because for years it had been her survival lifeline! Then she began to pay full attention to how good she was feeling.

She was amazed!

Leslie has now been adjusted for two weeks and is thrilled with the changes in her life already. She is not taking the drugs and while she still has some distance to go, she can hardly believe the difference. Her husband is so happy and wants to feel as good and so he has since initiated care in our office.

Leslie is now struggling with feeling angry over the fact that she suffered for years, spent a lot of money on cover-up medication, and has risked damage to her liver and kidneys, while nobody referred her for corrective chiropractic care! I told her that this happens all the time and that she should tell her doctors at her HMO where she found a real solution for her pain.

At least now, she knows the truth and that truth is setting her FREE!

Are you in pain? What are you looking for? Pain relief?

Let me ask you a question. What is the purpose of your pain? Have you simply been selected randomly for torture? I don't think so. The purpose of pain is to inform you that something is wrong! It is a warning alarm.

Do you want to simply shut the alarm off and allow the damage to continue or do you want to hear its message and solve the underlying condition?

Make sure you ask the right question before deciding if the answer makes sense. What is the cause and will the proposed plan solve it or only be a good mask?
