It’s Annie with my continuing progression from starting treatment at Long Chiropractic Center.

The fourth week of treatment was all about leveling out. I felt a lot better after my atlas set the prior week, but because my nervous system was letting things move around a lot more freely, I definitely had some residual symptoms. I was feeling better as far as nausea and dizziness, but my right hip and lower back were stiff and my sciatica was causing my right toes and foot to go numb. After getting adjusted for that on Wednesday, the Friday adjustment was smooth sailing. I ended the week with a little stiffness and soreness, but was feeling a huge difference from the week before. I had been experiencing dizziness and nausea for months and months off and on at that point, so it was a huge relief to not be feeling as wonky for the weekend.

If you are a regular patient at Long Chiropractic Center, you may have seen me around the last couple of months. I’m Annie, and I am also someone who experiences chronic back and hip pain even though I am 32, so we thought it’d be interesting to share my story since I have started treatment since starting work here.

I was diagnosed with scoliosis when I was 10 and have been battling back pain ever since. The first time my back “went out” was when I was 13. Since then, muscle spasms have been the norm. About three years ago, it got so bad I had to miss work for 2 weeks straight. I have been treating it with chiropractic, acupuncture, physical therapy, steroid shots and, finally, private pilates classes. I hadn’t found the correct mix of treatment, and then...

The week I started working at Long Chiropractic, I had a low back muscle spasm, so they started crisis care almost immediately. During the first week of care, I had my atlas set and noticed an improvement immediately. I was feeling horrible that day with a headache and nausea, and once it was set, I felt like a normal human again. I couldn’t get over it. Another effect from having my atlas set just that first time, was that my pilates instructor could immediately see a difference in my posture and bilateral strength.

All that said, my first week of chiropractic care here was pretty incredible and even a little life changing. I finally feel like I am pursuing the correct treatment path (chiropractic, massage, acupuncture and pilates), and am able to enjoy life more in my free time. Stay tuned to learn about my weekly progress!
