Living Proof Miracles Happen. Chiropractic Works!!!

In April 2005, I placed some items on my head to carry them upstairs. I felt their weight at that time, but I didn't think anything of it until I began having difficulty sleeping. I had terrible pain in my neck, left shoulder and down my arm. I knew I should go to a chiropractor, but we were in the midst of moving.

I was afraid to go to a medical doctor, because then you get stuck on their merry-go-round of referrals with no answers. I took Tylenol instead, but the pain began to build to the point where I couldn't use my arm! That's when a friend of mine told me about Dr. Hanna. I had been to a chiropractor 15 years before, but I didn't have a good experience. That chiropractor mainly used machines and I felt machines couldn't fix people . There was no education in his office - no talk of "subluxation" or nerve damage or how our bodies work. He certainly didn't build my faith in chiropractic at the time.

On my first day in Matthews Chiropractic Clinic, I felt like I saw the light at the end of the tunnel. I felt such a sense of caring from Dr. Hanna that has been proven over and over again.

I got my arm back - it cleared up almost immediately! I did begin to have other pains though. It felt as if something had been lurking inside my body waiting to attack! Through the adjustments, those toxins were dumped into my system so my body could get rid of them. That didn't make me lose confidence though because it made good sense . Sometimes you have to go backwards to go forwards, but it is always short-lived. My husband and I have always believed in natural healing (like tissue cleansing), so I wasn't shocked or surprised.

I wish I could talk to everyone about chiropractic. My husband is under care and so are my sister- and brother-in-law. My son and daughter will definitely be next - we'll find a way to make it work!
