Watch VideosI had this person come in with an injured shoulder frozen up on them. They couldn't get it much past that. Upon their evaluation of their upper neck, we adjusted their occipital bone to their atlas. They stood back up and up comes their arms. Why would that work? I'll tell you why it works. The nerve that goes to your trap muscles, which your traps help guide the movement of your scapula in and out, and not necessarily just within the shoulder joint. A lot of people are limited just because they can only lift here in the shoulder, but the shoulder blade won't move. The nerve coming off the brainstem, a cranial nerve, is what supplies those traps.
I had this lady come in. She was so plugged up in her sinuses and she'd been that way for three years, taking antibiotics, going to all sorts of doctors, ran up about a $10,000 bill over the course of three years out of pocket. She came in. I evaluated her nervous system, how it was functioning, how her spine was doing. We adjusted a few things in her neck. I worked the muscles through her face and as I was working it, she could hear clicking and popping sounds inside as it was draining down the lymphatics. We moved it through her face down into her neck and it was gone. I made $75 and she was made well again.
I had a patient that came in and 10 years prior to her coming to see me she had been in a car accident and had been seen by several chiropractors and other doctors trying to get rid of this neck pain that she's had and she's been going for years and is not getting the relief that she was looking for. She came in and I did a initial exam on her and provided same day treatment and I was able to make a difference that very first day in that one treatment than any of the other doctors have in all the years that she's been receiving treatment. So it was really amazing that I was lucky to be able to have been led by the spirit and helping her into providing the treatment that she needed to get the relief that she was looking for. It was life-changing. It was amazing.
It breaks my heart and it's very unfortunate when people are steered away from chiropractors, whether it's by family members or other health professionals. I had this man who had had a low back fusion, rods put in his low back down to his sacrum and nobody wanted to touch him. He'd always been advised never go to a chiropractor. He was in so much pain after his surgery. And a lot of low back surgeries are failed and most people don't get the relief that they were hoping for. And so he came in, we evaluated his low back and his fusion region. I took all those pieces as one full unit and adjusted them as one full unit, not trying to separate and break anything. Immediate relief and he's been back to me ever since.
