Wow! I feel like a new woman!
Man, oh, man...why did I wait so long to go to a chiropractor? I was a chiropractic virgin (LOL!) before today. I have been having severe neck pain and pretty bad back pain for about 2 weeks now. I never have pains like this so it was unusual for me. I kept thinking it would go away, but never did. There were nights when I was practically in tears when I got in bed. It has been soooo hard taking care of a 20 pound baby everyday by myself with that pain. I figured that it was probably from lugging Caleb around on my hip all the time. Anyway, I finally went to a chiropractor that my neighbor recommended and WOW I feel great! He was AWESOME! He took X-rays of me and was shocked to see how out of whack I was. He said that it appeared as though I had been in a car accident and gotten whip lash! My rib cage was even out of line. He did alot of agjustments on me (which, btw, freaked me out to the point of tears....having my neck and spine twisted, jerked and cracked was very scary...I kept thinking OMG he could paralyze me if he did something wrong) Anyway, I also had electric stim which felt weird, but good. I was there for 2 hours...he had to do alot to me and said that he doesn't know how I've been living like that and not complaining more. He said that it most likely was the result of being pregnant and then carrying a heavy baby around on top of that made it worse. I go back Monday and then again a few more times. Anyway, just wanted to say that if you've never been to one and are having problems, GO! It really helped me. And, if you live in Hsv, I highly recommend Dr. Fauld (Fauld's Chiropractic in Hampton Cove).
Re: Wow! I feel like a new woman!
It's amazing what they can do to help! My back pain has improved so much since visiting a chiro here who uses the Pro Adjuster machine. I have only gone three times this year! That's such a huge change from about 10 times a month with the manual adjustments. It's also amazing that our spinal adjusts itself in whatever shape so that we can stand up straight.
I'm so glad you got some relief!!! It sucks to be in such pain and taking care of the baby and others. :-) You're such a trooper!
Mine are covered on my insurance but I still don't want to go back...I'm such a wuss(sp)!
girl...I could not work in the field that I do...if it was not for good chiropractic care!! I am a believer in it......I lived in so much pain with my scoliosis....and it has been a life saver!
I am so happy that you decided to go. It will blow your mind how much it really helps
