Chiropractors / spinal specialists australia



Dr. Yil Yildrim, Perth, Australia

My daughter Chelsey (7 years old) presented to Dr Yildirim at Wanneroo Family Chiropractic in June 2004 with various symptoms and was spending most of the time in sickbay or lying on the classroom floor.

At school in August 2003, Chelsey had sustained a minor head and neck injury in the playground, and prior to this injury had not experienced any noticeable health problems besides childhood illnesses. She was a healthy girl, full of enthusiasm and vitality and was going well at school.

After complaining of a sore neck and headaches 3 weeks after the injury, I took her to our GP who found no problems, and then to my local chiropractor who stated "C5" to be the main problem and adjusted accordingly. She improved and did not complain of a sore neck after that, but still was not the same child as before. The chiropractic care continued for 3 weeks, but we moved house and discontinued due to distance.

As her mother, I noticed a change in her posture. Once a very upright child, I found myself constantly mentioning her slouching. Then the headaches, nausea and stomach complaints, dizziness, co-ordination problems, general vagueness and emotional instability occurred. I took her to the GP who diagnosed allergies and sinusitis, which she never suffered before. He then medicated her on and off for the allergy over several months.

It was July 2004 that a friend mentioned the quality care provided by Dr Yildirim and suggested that Chelsey be assessed. Chelsey was assessed, x-rays taken and a care program undertaken. 3 months later, Chelsey is back to her old self and on no medication for sinusitis in springtime. She seems to be allergy free so far and has no headaches, nausea etc. and her schoolwork has improved substantially in the latter half of this year.

Her posture has also improved and is more upright, and, most of all, we hear no complaints and have no complaints with regard to Chelsey, which was not the situation 3 months ago. My husband, myself and our two other children are now all having chiropractic care with Dr. Yildirim.

I hereby give permission for this story to be used for publicity about chiropractic care.
