Back to Normal: "I Now Know What it Feels Like Not to Be in Pain."

It’s estimated that as much as 80 percent of the population will experience a back problem at some time in their lives. So… back pain is normal then, right? No, actually, it’s not. No one should have to live each day in pain. Regular chiropractic care can help lessen, manage or eliminate back pain symptoms all together. Today, we talk to two patients who’ve experienced this for themselves. Here are all the ways that their lives have improved since they began undergoing regular chiropractic adjustments and therapies.

“I could have felt better years ago.”

“My lower back had been in bad—no, really bad—shape for years. By the time I walked into Chiro One, I was barely able to move. I started having these lower back spasms over 15 years ago. I would fall to the floor in pain. They would sometimes last for hours—and I would have to lay down and just wait for relief. I tried muscle relaxers, patches and pain pills to help.

Before joining Chiro One, I honestly thought chiropractic was a risk for breaking my spine. But now, I love it. I hate that I waited so long to try it. I could have felt better years ago! I have high energy. I rest better. I feel great and I don’t have any lower back pain anymore! Because of chiropractic, I believe my system can be healed without meds or surgeries.”

“I now know what it feels like not to be in pain.”

“When I first came to Chiro One, I was suffering horrible chronic back pain. I was in so much pain that I didn’t even remember what it was like to not feel pain. It started a few months before—I had issues standing or sitting for long periods of time. I had difficulty carrying heavy things.

I tried most at-home treatments, resting, ice and heat… but nothing worked. Prior to joining Chiro One, I thought chiropractic was new age stuff and may not work, but I had nothing to lose. Now, I believe that chiropractic works—there is a proven science.

I now know what it feels like to not be in pain. I’m still constantly straining myself, but I believe I can get stronger, now. As a bonus, I very seldom get migraines anymore—I don’t even need to use prescriptions or see a doctor. I have a long way to healthy, but I see improvement. It’s going to be a long road, but I can get better. Glenview Chiro One has made a huge difference in my life.”
