This is super cool! This is one of the nicest fellas you could possibly bump into. Werner came to me last week with low back pain. He told me his goal was to do a competition in powerlifting.
Those of you who know me would appreciate how much passion I have for lifting weights and extreme sports in general.
After assessing Werner and going through his xrays we had a chat about his goal. I told him it would be doable but for a significant toll on his already degenerated lumbar spine.
Werner came this week for his adjustment, feeling much better. He told me he had a big think about what I said and decided he will prioritise his health, longevity and quality time with his family over the competition.
The moral of this story is: I would never tell my patient not to do something. I am here to serve the community and help you achieve YOUR individual health goal. However, I will always be the devils advocate and give you the options you have and potential consequences of your decisions.
On Ya mate! Keep lifting weights, keep getting adjusted and live happy💪🫡
