What we have taught him and what took is there, but I would not say it was fluid or fluent. Jennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Hey Doctor of Chiropractic, specializing in Non-surgical therapy for severe back patients. I've helped so many people that have experienced failure in all other areas, including surgery. I would love to provide support to your group. What kind of things have you tried for your pain, and what are you experiencing? Have you found anything to be especially effective?

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 You should get a book that teaches you to locate and treat trigger points in your body. There is a great book called " The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook " by Davies and Davies. I used to have horrible spastic paraspinal muscles, they were so bad I could barelt stand straight. I got many rounds of trigger point injections, which worked for a while, but common with steroidal injections, it stops being as effective with repetitive use. So I learned to work on them myself and I went to a massage therapist one a week for a month, then every other week for a month. We worked together to eradicate the trigger points, and I am fortunate enough to say they have not returned...yet... It would also help you to learn breathing exercizes and " self-awareness " techniques, as trigger points are exacerbated by stress. Learning to relax your muscles will help a lot too. Good Luck! --- > > From: drmikelewis <drmikelewis> > > Subject: I'm here to help > > spinedisorderssuppo rtgroup@gro ups.com > > Date: Wednesday, April 1, 2009, 9:02 AM > > I am a doctor who has been working with Chronic back pain > and spinal conditions for over ten years now in Central > Florida.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Hi Sigh! I'm in Australia. No chance you could pop down here??? LOL Am going to see my chiropractor today - first visit after CT scan to identify spondylolithesis, severe canal stenosis, facet joint problems and more... MUCH pain, and adverse reactions to most pain meds, so I am looking forward to this apt. Non-surgical therapy sounds good to me. I breed and show a very rare breed of cats, which means some lifting - litter boxes - especially after they have been used. Have not worked out a solution to this apart from euthanasing most of the cats. Sounds like overkill, but the economic situation here means people are not spending money on pets so nobody wants them. Maybe I'll have a question for you after today's apt. Thanks for offering your time and skills. > From: <drmikelewis@...> > Reply-<spinal problems > > Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2009 11:16:52 -0700 (PDT) > <spinal problems > > Subject: Re: I'm here to help > > Hey > Doctor of Chiropractic, > specializing in Non-surgical therapy for severe back patients.
