Review content:
I was in pain for months before I sought help. It's odd how we slowly accept pain and immobility as a way of life, and blame it on getting older...I could lift anything slightly heavy, and I'd pay for it...in pain for days on end.
One x ray and Dr. Bearden knew exactly why I was in pain and formulated a plan to help my body recover. I have to admit, in the beginning treatments, I was skeptical because I was one of the rare people who had a dismal time afterwards...from my first 3 or 4 visits. And it was puzzling because every treatment he had me do was very easy and virtually pain free. Yet those nights, I felt like I was suffering the flu or something. I would lay in bed feeling miserable, wondering how on earth the simple treatments were effecting me in such a dismal way...it just wasn't logical, yet, I felt terrible, and of course I still suffered the lower back and leg pain. Yet, the ice packs recommended, did relieve the pain issue, but I still felt drained, so I just rested those days during my first treatments...and every time, in a day or so, I'd feel remarkably better, of course then it was time for another treatment. I just forced myself to continue...
After my 4th treatment, I miraculously turned the corner, as Dr. Bearden predicted, and started noticing; I was able to stand up easier, move around better. My motion was more fluid. Climbing stairs no longer hurt my knees. My posture had changed for the better. My lower back no longer hurt. The fatigue and pain I often got between my shoulders from working hours on the computer, disappeared...I could toss and turn (my nightly sleep ritual) in bed...with no pain. I even felt taller. My energy was increasing.
It has been five weeks now, on this journey back, to better health...and I do feel like a different person.
Thank you, Dr. Bearden, and your wonderful staff, for your time, talent, wisdom, and perseverance in my recovery.
