I have had dorso-lumbar scoliosis (deviation of the spine) since I was a child. I have always been to orthopedic surgeons, all of them told me that my problem was hopeless, that as I got older, the pain would get worse, and that when I had children it would be worse. When I was 11 or 12 years old, I wore a corrective device for my back, called milwoky, which was a corset that reached from the hips to the neck. That was very bad for me, they laughed at school and it was not very pleasant.
The doctor only told me to go swimming and to take anti-inflammatory drugs that did nothing but cause me stomach pain. I have two children, and the births went quite well, but my back was hurting me more and more. My character, for many years, was pretty bad, what they say that you are all day in a “bad mood”, I have a bar-restaurant and when I got home, I could only sit on the couch and do nothing. Just complaining of pain.
I have also spent a lot of money on masseurs and physiotherapists, which take the pain away for a few days but then it comes back. I even had a physiotherapist break two of my ribs! My brother was coming to the chiropractor through a friend of his, and my mother, because I looked so bad, told me that it wouldn't hurt to try. I came to the health class with her, and the truth is that I didn't really believe what Marc said, but because of my mother I agreed to come. During the time I have been coming, everything has happened to me, from every time the chiropractor gave me an adjustment and my period went down, to having sciatica, lumbago, headaches, leg pains, knee pains...This is corrective reversal.
Now, I am much better, my character has changed, I am in a good mood most of the day, I have almost no pain from the spinal deviation, and when I get home, I have time to do my housework, play with my children, and many other things. I have taken a family voucher, and I bring my children and my husband, and we are delighted. I can clean my house without pain, play with my children, carry weights....
I thank chiropractic and Dr. Marc, I know I still have some time to be much better but we will get there, I'm sure:
