Karen"I love feeling human once again!"

“About 5 years ago I suffered a repetitive strain injury at work. I was lifting paper (180 pounds at a time) and twisting my back feeding a printing press. I was under Chiropractic care and found that it helped for a short time. Six months later I found my lower back in a lot of discomfort so I started to take medication for the pain. It was around a year later that I re-injured it once more. Again the Chiropractor looked after the problem, but this time with less success. My recovery time was starting to take longer and I needed help putting on my socks and shoes.

With the pain persisting, my family doctor eventually sent me for a CT scan which found mild osteoarthritis and degenerative disc disease in L4/L5/S1. The pain was so persistent that I would clean out a bottle of Tylenol 3 (60/bottle) within two weeks. It was like someone was stabbing me with a knife and I was living like this for months. The stress of coping with continuous pain was seriously affecting my job and home life. The doctors I saw were not able to explain why I was in so much pain. The only explanation that was offered to me was that ‘it was all in my mind‘. With my continuous complaining, my family doctor referred me to LaserHealth Solutions and luckily got in that same day!

After my very first visit I felt immediate relief. I had a lot less throbbing in my low back and the general pain was more manageable. They were also able to explaine why I was in so much pain. That was a big relief in itself. The stretching and the laser has worked really well for me. I have had 9 treatments now and I feel terrific. I feel like an energetic 43 year old again, instead of a 43 year old looking like a 100 year old. The day I started my laser Treatments I purchased a large bottle of Tylenol 3‘s. Three weeks later I have only used 2 pills. I love feeling human once again! Thanks to the staff and the treatment.”
