I had a injury in my neck that first occurred from doing some sports activities, some heavy lifting where I was lifting overhead and that been
0:088 secondsoccurred for about four to 5 years. I’ve been dealing with that and it was pretty acute neck problems, difficulty turning
0:1515 secondsleft and right. I had some shooting down my arm occasionally. Um, it made it difficult to sleep and uh just all around uncomfortable. With the neck
0:2323 secondspain, it was extremely uh stiff and like rotating side to side was very difficult for me and just very stiff and
0:3030 secondsuncomfortable. With the neck pain, it became very difficult to like get around very frequently and and then obviously it was impacting my sleep. You can’t
0:3838 secondsfind a position to sleep in. Your your life becomes significantly impacted quickly. So, the first step was just take over-the-counter ibuprofen, Advil,
0:4646 secondswhich had, you know, some temporary relief, but it just couldn’t uh it was significantly impacting especially my athletic activities, my lifting. So,
0:5555 secondsthat that neck pain, you know, was really impacting just my my day-to-day life. I tried doing some massage like at a a massage parlor, but that didn’t
1:021 minute, 2 secondsreally impact the or alleviate any of the symptoms. So, the adjustments that Dr. too made allowed me to move a little more freely and also the uh prescribed
1:111 minute, 11 secondsat home treatments, the stretches and the um different uh physical therapy aspects that that were prescribed really helped me overcome that injury. And you
1:191 minute, 19 secondsknow, today I’m significantly more mobile and also just a lot stronger in those overhead lifts. I would say that Dr. E2 specifically um doesn’t feel like
1:271 minute, 27 secondssome other chiropractic offices that you you may have been to. It’s a very medical setting. Um, things like being able to look at X-rays, you know,
1:351 minute, 35 secondsimmediately and being able to see exactly how your spinal health is shown is really impactful versus, you know, this isn’t like a a CD, you know, small
1:441 minute, 44 secondscarpeted office. This is a medical facility and it really felt like I was treated like a medical patient. Yeah.
1:491 minute, 49 secondsNo, I mean, I think the main thing that I would talk about is just again how this felt like a medical facility and a medical treatment rather than, you know,
1:561 minute, 56 secondsit’s it’s so far the difference between my previous massage therapy and and Dr. Dr. Et’s chiropractic work.
