In August of 2003 my low back was injured in a car accident. My pain started within a few of hours of the accident. As an RN I went the conventional route, ER, neurosurgeon, medication, PT and time. Some helped for a short time but soon the pain became so severe I was unable to live my life as it was; I couldnt work, couldnt sleep in my bed and was crawling on the floor to get around.
An MRI showed serious problems, several herniated discs with a spondylolisthesis. My neurosurgeon said surgery was inevitable to get me out of pain, but we could wait if I wanted.
Out of depression and desperation I took the recommendation of a friend and massage therapist to try seeing Dr. Laird. I was unsure of this because I knew my condition was delicate and serious. Dr. Laird thought she might be able to help so she started with very gentle adjustments. I stepped out in faith. After only the 2nd adjustment I could actually feel a difference with each adjustment bringing less and less pain, my old self resurfacing. What a miracle!
Yes, some day I may need the surgery, but not today and maybe never. I am better and I thank God for finding Dr. Laird. I am thankful for each step of my day.
Janice Marlin, RN
