Pain- Free AGAIN!! Chiropractic treatments are SELF CARE!!! As I get older, self care is so important. I am a nurse practitioner and in my mid 50's. I suffered a left knee (UCL tear) about 4 months ago. Physical therapy was not helping, in fact, I had more pain and swelling after every visit. After 2.5 months of PT, I found Sweeney Chiropractic through a friend of mine, who is one of their long-standing clients. After the FIRST visit, I gained some pain relief --first time in months! Prior to my initial visit, walking was painful. I had tried kinesiology taping, wraps and braces to help with the daily pain and fatigue in my knee. My knee is finally healing! After a month of treatments and adjustments, I am PAIN-FREE and on the road to full recovery!! ***I plan to continue my appointments in order to stay properly aligned and prevent pain and injury as my body gets older. THIS IS SO IMPORTANT for me to live a long, healthy, good quality of life. ***My philosophy: Without routine chiropractic therapy, it's like driving your car without aligning or changing your tires, or giving it proper maintenance. Chiropractic medicine is not only for injury, but PREVENTATIVE TREATMENT!! I am now a part of the Sweeney Chiropractic "family"! Where I am listened to, cared for, and have a personal relationships with my chiropractor --who is my biggest cheerleader and advocate for a healthy, functioning body. ***Personal side note: I am a nurse practitioner by profession. I am on my feet for long periods of time and sit at non-ergonomically desks and chairs for extended periods. I am getting older and feel the effects of my profession. I, wholeheartedly, believe in chiropractic medicine. General medicine doctors do NOT routinely perform thorough physical exams/assessments of the spine, neck and body alignment. They leave it to specialites - -and who sees a specialist unless there is already cause or injury. Modern medicine relies on expensive MRI's and unnecessary imaging. Schedule your consult today! Your body will thank you!!
