If you’re anything like me, your first trip to the chiropractor was terrifying and you were half convinced they would accidentally snap your neck or tweak your spine just enough to paralyze you for life. No? Alright, maybe I’m just paranoid. I avoided going to a chiropractor for years, until I was in a car accident and had to go.
In my accident, my airbag went off and since I’m pretty short, I was sitting close to the wheel. The result was a whole bunch of displaced ribs…eight to be exact. I went in and told the chiropractor about my chest and upper back pain. I also had a giant cartoon-like knob on my knee from slamming it into the door and a nice case of car accident whiplash. Chiropractors are experts at fixing that sort of thing.
I figured that walking around with an injured back or out-of-place ribs was probably a bad idea, so I faced my fear and went in to the chiropractor. They first hooked me up to machine that sent small electrical pulses in my shoulders and upper back. It was supposed to loosen up the muscles so my adjustment and treatment would go easier. I am convinced it did help indeed.
I dislike conventional doctors because they feel too invasive for my liking. I also have found that my chiropractor knows much more about alternative remedies, supplements, and natural healing than any “normal” doctor does. I had 5 chiropractor visits after my car accident injury, and each time I went I had more respect for the doctor and his expertise. Some lower back pain treatment and the work he did on my ribs and shoulders was amazing.
Now I must rant on the technology that made the healing possible. Not only did the doctor have a very definite knowledge of the human body and how muscles interact, but he had these magic lasers that helped so much. Okay, not really magic, but that’s what I call them. They are the least-invasive, most-effective chronic back pain treatment I have ever heard of. Just a laser and all is well. It’s one of those things that most people are skeptical about until they try it…so if you are suffering from chronic back pain or any injury, these lasers help. They can also help with bone strength and joints. I even had some laser work done on my throat when I had a serious case of tonsillitis and was cured a couple days later without antibiotics. Magic, I tell you!
An increasing number of chiropractic and other health offices are using this laser technology. It’s safer than prescription drugs, less invasive, and faster than other procedures. Like I said, it is something you won’t believe until you try it for yourself. If you need back pain relief, you can get all the massages and adjustments you want, but nothing will be as effective as fast as these lasers. Try it out!
