Medical advances continually prove that miracles are, in fact, possible. Chiropractic care consistently demonstrates this, as the most successful and efficient treatment.

80% of adults report that they have experienced back pain at some point in their life. While it affects many people, how it affects you physically and emotionally is different.

With this many people experiencing pain, it is reassuring that chiropractic care repeatedly beats these odds. Compared to typical medical treatments, 94% of adjustments achieve greater pain reduction.

This is because chiropractors understand that pan does not affect people’s lives in the same way. They work with you to develop treatment tailored around your needs and goals.  

This care has helped patients avoid surgery and medication, and has even saved lives.

What is most astonishing is that these phenomenons are not far and few but just everyday occurrences in the chiropractic world.

Here are a few stories patients around the country have shared to show that by realigning your body with this care, you can truly realign your life.

Full Recovery From Sciatica 

One patient suffering from sciatica, Jeff H., credits the curing of this condition and improvement of general health to this essential treatment.

Before consulting a chiropractor, Jeff’s doctor had told him that his life depended on back surgery. At this point, he was desperate for an alternative, as he was constantly using of painkillers with his current doctor.

Neither of these options were working to heal him in the long run.

Therefore, he gave chiropractic care a try—and he is so glad that he did.

His chiropractor took some X-rays that showed a nerve was being pinched in his back and this was causing both back and leg pain.

After a few simple adjustments, the life threatening pain that had been holding him back was relieved and he is now completely cured of sciatica.

Jeff has had benefits far beyond just his back, though. He is now sleeping much better, without the persistence of pain. His allergies and indigestion has also improved greatly.

The health of your spine clearly has a domino effect on the rest of your body.  

Another patient, a middle aged woman, with sciatica also suffered from back pain and headaches for over two decades. In fact, it became so severe that she had to retire from her job as a chemist and became confined to her home.

The pain became so severe that she was on bedrest for a year. 365 days of pain and frustration.

She could not sit up or travel at all. Being so confined, she could not exercise and had very low energy. Her life came to a completely stop. Undoubtedly, she felt very depressed with the physical and emotional pain.

In this distressed state, she decided to sign up for a series of appointments with a chiropractor. Slowly, the pain decreased until she was eventually pain free, and is now able to exercise regularly and walk again.

Like Jeff, her energy also improved. Her optimism returned and she can do what she loves without the fear of this pain again.

Breaking Free From Dystonia

Dr. Christa Hubbard was in chiropractic school when she had a severe car accident. This is when her dystonia, a disease characterized by uncontrollable muscle spasms, began.

The symptoms were a tightening sensation on the right side of her face and neck. This made it incredibly difficult for her to hold up her head, and the pain continue to spread throgh the entire right side of her body.

Four years after the accident, she was on the verge of never being able to stand on her feet again. At this point, her arm and leg muscles were beginning to contract, and she was beginning to lose control of her motor skills.

It seemed to only worsen as time went on.

In college, Dr. Hubbard had been a Division I skier and athletics had always played a large role in her life. However, due to dystonia, she says her body was “contorted in an unrelenting state” where any movement at all became nearly impossible.

She could no longer recognize herself—inside or out. This created an insurmountable sense of hopelessness. On top of the physical pain, she could no longer take care of her 5 month old daughter and her cognitive abilities were continually declining.

After seeking help from all kinds of medical professionals, she finally sought out a chiropractor.

With 11 months of chiropractic care, which consisted of one adjustment of the spine and extremities combined with neurological therapies she did to strength her brain, the thirty year old doctor is finally free from the cage of dystonia.

As a chiropractor herself, she is shocked by the miraculous “untwisting” of her body with this treatment. She can now continue with her own practice as well as spend time with her daughter and husband.

Upper Neck And Back Pain Pain Release 

Shirley M., another patient, describes herself as an active person whose problems began when she kept reinjuring her neck and upper back.

Time and time again, she was prescribed muscle relaxers. These, unfortunately, did nothing to heal her injuries in the long run, or prevent harm in the future.

All of these injuries stood in the way of her lifestyle because the “pain would always resurface.”

After her first appointment, Shirley reveals that she wished she hadn’t “waited so long to see a chiropractor.”

Beyond just feeling better physically, she feels much more energized, which has dramatically improved her endurance and productivity. She is pain—and worry – free because chiropractic strengthened her physically and mentally.

Why You Should See a Chiropractor

Chiropractic care has had an immense influence on people’s live throughout the years. No matter what injury you have, no matter who you are—chiropractic is for you.

As said by patient and now chiropractor, Dr. Christa Hubbard, she is a “doctor of the nervous system.”

Chiropractors’ entire philosophy revolves around setting the amazing restorative powers of the human body into motion. By healing your spine, they can heal a multitude of other ailments that affect your body and psyche.

Clearly, as seen in these four cases, chiropractic care puts your life back in your hands.
