Doubtful it would work
For many years I did not believe in chiropractor services and did not think it would work. My wife had scoliosis of the back and she would always go to them and said they did wonders for her. I got a job where I have to drive 110 miles one way and started to develop back problems to the point it was hard to just sit down or walk or bend in certain ways.
I visited Doctor Dean and was still very doubtful it would work. He had me lay on my stomach and he placed a fist under my spine and rocked me back onto his fist. I went from a pain level of 9 to a level of 2 in a matter of 5 seconds. Over the course of the next 4 months I continued to have back pains but each adjustment made it a little better. He also gave me a series of stretches to help keep my back relaxed and stretched out.
I finally found out my wallet I was sitting on was causing me to sit uneven and put my spine out of adjustment. This was over 3 years ago and I have not had any problems since. If I do have any back problems I will make sure I visit Doctor Dean as soon as it starts to flare up again. I would highly recommend Essence of Wellness to anyone that has back problems to get them corrected there.
