My name is Isabel, I am 54 years old, I am from Alicante but I live in Mataró. I am going to explain you how Chiropractic has avoided a back operation or maybe something worse.
When I arrived at Dr. Marc's office, I was desperate for back pain.
I was always wearing a girdle, because I had a lesion in the vertebrae, some of them were displaced and at different levels (cervical, dorsal and lumbar). The doctors told me that the last option was to operate, but that I had to wait until I could no longer stand the pain, because the operation they had to do was “a botch” in the doctor's own words.
So I tried everything, I did swimming pool, which I had to stop because it was terrible, I tried tai-chi and went to an osteopath, but nothing worked for me!
A girl (Joana) recommended me to try Chiropractic, and well...what do you think, and why not?
My recovery has been slow, but it has been worth it. After 9 months of care, I finally take off the girdle on weekends; I wear it only to work, and I take it off very often. Before I also felt a pinching in the whole spine that hurt me a lot and since two months ago I am much better.
Apart from this “my ailments” I am much more cheerful and in a better mood, I feel more like doing things, work is not so heavy and I can walk as much as I want, which was not the case before, and I sleep much better.
Chiropractic is helping me to improve my daily life, and I wouldn't trade it for anything!!!!
