I suffered from severe migraine headaches for many years. These migraines would put me in the bed, sometimes for an entire day or two, and I missed valuable time with my family and from work. I can recall several family vacations in which I spent a portion of it in a dark room with no interactions with my children. I had friends and colleagues tell me over the years to try a chiropractor but I never really thought much about it. I guess I didn’t really believe it would be helpful.
I saw an ad in Lexington Life and decided to go to Palmetto Chiropractic for a scan and consult. I chose to bring my two children and husband along as well. At the time, my three year old was having frequent sinus and ear infections. It seemed as though he was constantly on antibiotics. After speaking with Dr. Jason, I decided it was certainly worth a try to improve the health of all of our family members.
It’s hard to believe, but we have been under Dr. Jason’s care for three years. We are committed to going at least once a week for adjustments. Over the three years, we have definitely seen positive changes in our health. We have really seen the benefits of our bodies functioning at 100%!
I discovered I was pregnant when we started our chiropractic care, and it was so beneficial for my pregnancy, labor and delivery. My “baby”, who is now 2 ½, has been getting adjustments since he was four days old, yes, four days. I have seen a tremendous difference in his health as an infant and toddler compared to what I saw with my nine and five year old. My five year old no longer has sinus or ear infections. If any of us get sick, the illness is always of short duration. In my three years of care, I have had maybe three severe migraines, and frequent visits after those headaches helped in managing the pain. My view of true health has changed completely. I always thought of chiropractic care as addressing a problem, especially with the neck or back, but have come to realize it is all about overall health maintenance and well-being. Our commitment to taking charge of our health has been one of the best decisions, and investments of time and money, we could have made.
I have referred many of my family members, friends, and colleagues. I want them to see the benefits and not miss out on optimal health. I do not want to keep this a secret from anyone. I would encourage anyone to seek chiropractic care not just for existing health problems, but also to improve and maintain their current health, wellness and quality of life.
