My first encounter with Chiropractic was when I was 15 years old in high school and my mom became severely disabled from crippling lower back pain and a herniated disc in her lumbar spine. She was bed ridden for three months and was unable to even come downstairs. She had a cane to walk and lived on the upper level of our house for approximately 4 months. She was only 38. She was told only spinal surgery would fix her and had no other options. Finally someone told her to go to a Chiropractor and in 2 weeks she was walking again without her cane. She made a full and miraculous recovery. She then said to me, “you should be a Chiropractor, he healed me only using his hands.” I had put it out of my mind until many years later at the age of 25 when I became a Chiropractic patient.
The doctor took a full history and I explained to him that I had been a very sick child. I was 3 and a half months premature. I had a very difficult birth and was sick for most of my childhood with stomach problems, chronic throat infections, chronic constipation, and strep throat for nearly every year of my life for 12 years. I later learned from my chiropractor that the subluxations I had in my neck were causing my ill health and so I realized I had been subluxated from birth. During my delivery forceps were used which were very damaging to my upper neck bones. I had so many antibiotics and medications that I lost count. As an adult I had some car accidents and also began experiencing headaches and constant lower back pain. I was adjusted in the Chiropractor’s office for the first time and knew my life was about to change. My immune system increased, I stopped getting sick and my pain started to disappear. Chiropractic has helped me again and again and again since then.
Most importantly was when, at the age of 29, I herniated a disc in my lower back . This is after I had become a Chiropractor and I was unable to practice for 13 months. The pain was constant and severe. I had constant shooting pain down my right leg and was unable to sit or stand for more than 5 minutes. I also had so much nerve damage that I would drag my right leg. I also lost 3 cm of calf muscle on my right leg which never came back. I had constant numbness and tingling down my leg and was sure I would be disabled for life. I was also unable to sit for 6 months and would eat all of my meals standing up. I began getting adjusted and it took me almost 1 year but my spine healed fully and completely, even the disc regenerated. I not only made a full recovery but I can now RUN. I then learned the power of adjustments to allow the body’s innate healing potential to take place.
Chiropractic continued to help me through my two pregnancies. I got adjusted very regularly and even had my Chiropractor do an adjustment that optimized the position of my pelvis so that my baby who was breech for two months of my pregnancy could assume a normal position . This meant because of that special adjustment, I did not need a C-Section. Due to my chiropractic care my body’s function was optimized and my pelvis was in a position where my body could birth my babies naturally. I delivered both of my children with no drugs, not even an epidural. My deliveries were completely natural and progressed with no outside interference. My children were checked at 2 and 3 weeks of age and they have been adjusted ever since. They have never experienced an ear infection or some of the childhood problems that occur with C-Section babies. They have been fortunate enough to receive life enhancing adjustments at a young age and as they say “as the twig is bent, so the tree grows”.
