On September 7, 2012 my body experienced a trauma that set in motion a snowball of physical pain that lasted for over three weeks. I went to the hospital emergency room three times seeking assistance and relief from the excruciating pain I was in. I was experiencing cramping and intense pain in my right kidney. My whole body ached from the top of my head to the tips of my toes. My jaw was not working properly. I was in a mental fog and I could barely get off the couch. In all honesty I thought I was dying. I thought that after three pointless trips to the hospital and still no concrete explanation for my pain that my body would continue to shut down and no one would figure out why in time. I had just moved to Ithaca at the end of August and didn't know anyone. I was scared, in pain and alone.

On the morning of October 4th the day before what would have been my mom's 54th birthday, I searched for help using the yellow pages app on my smart-phone. The first chiropractic office I called couldn't fit me in but gave me the numbers to a couple other offices that maybe be able to. After getting a machine at the first one I went back to the list that yellow pages brought up and called an office that had caught my eye. It was Spinal Wellness Center of Ithaca and yes they would fit me in.

I hobbled into the office feeling like this was my last hope. I couldn't stand up straight and my organs, joints and muscles were so sore I was afraid of even the prospect of the adjustment. But I had faith that I had been guided to the right place. And what I experienced that day was nothing short of a miracle in my opinion. I walked out of the office standing up straight and all pain, save mild aching in my kidney was relieved.

I haven't stopped to question this miracle as it seemed doubt might send me sliding back into misery. But I am back today, one week later for my fifth adjustment and I am on my way to a complete healing. I can feel the life force flowing through my body again. My body is on a mission to heal aided by the type of adjustments offered at Spinal Wellness. As I have suffered from "fibromyalgia" since the age of fifteen, my hope for a pain free life had dwindled and I assumed I would always live in pain as no one in the medical profession seems to know how to treat the group of symptoms labeled "fibromyalgia". I now have renewed hope that I can have a normal life. My energy is returning after years of "fibro-fog" and chronic fatigue and even after just four adjustments, the pain I was in for the whole month of September has passed and only returns mildly sometimes in the morning or if I drive for several hours.

After almost a whole month of feeling like I was fading quickly away,  I am a new person after just one week. I have experienced relief from chiropractic care in the past but nothing even close to what I experienced with Spinal Wellness. Thank you, Dr. Gremaud and the staff at the Spinal Wellness Center of Ithaca. I look forward to discovering the potential you have rekindled in my body and my spirit.
