Migraines, Sinus Infections, & Digestive Problems

I admit that I was skeptical prior to visiting a Chiropractic office. I had been previously treated by a chiropractor for lower-back pain, which only resulted in symptom relief and an aversion to conventional chiropractors. This new chiropractor explained to me that the pain I was suffering from was more than likely caused by a subluxation of the top two bones of my spine.

I have been suffering from migraines headaches for 9 years. My migraines were steadily getting worse from year to year until I was experiencing on each month – which would last from 2-5 days. I also was seeking relief from having to take antibiotics for seasonal sinus problems. I would end up in a hospital emergency room on a Saturday morning in unbearable sinus pain.

Since my first adjustment from my chiropractor in August, I have experienced only one migraine. I have had no sinus problems. I am ecstatic about being free from any antibiotics, sinus medication, headache medicine, and my quarterly trip to the emergency room.

In addition to the above major accomplishments, I have also noted the following side effects from treatment:

Aid to Digestion: due to past digestive problems, I was unable to eat certain foods, especially onions. I can not eat onions without any digestive problems.

Strengthened Immune System: everyone in my department has been out of work with colds, flu, etc. I am the only one who has not succumbed to any illnesses.

Increased Energy: I no longer need to take a nap when I get home from work!

Side Note: I have been bringing my mother, an MS-sufferer, to my chiropractor for adjustments. My Mother, who is wheelchair-bounded after 35 years of MS, had been attending water-therapy to strengthen her leg muscles. Her therapist noted marked improvement in her muscle strength from the time of her first adjustment. Her therapist has increased the number of therapy sessions from 2 days a week to 3 days a week in an attempt to keep pace with her improvement.

And an added bonus: treatments from my chiropractor have had no negative side-effects.
