when it comes to chronic neck pain, less might be more

As surprising as it may be to you, when Dr. Palmer started the Chiropractic Profession back in 1895, it had almost nothing to do with pain.   The first CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENT was given to a deaf janitor (one Harvey Lillard), which promptly cured his deafness.  Although I have seen my fair share of similar miracles over the years (several people getting their sense of smell / taste back after over three decades without, a person with 42 years of deafness cured (HERE), and thousands of “GARDEN VARIETY” miracles), the thing that still continues to drive large numbers of people into our office is CHRONIC PAIN. 

The medical community continues to treat Chronic Pain patients with the status quo (lots and lots of TESTS, DRUGS GALORE, and eventually SURGERIES).  Part of the problem is that Chronic Pain —- particularly CHRONIC NECK PAIN — alters the way the brain functions (HERE).  This is why failure to actually address the underlying causes of Chronic Neck Pain by simply trying to cover the overt symptoms, will always lead to increasing numbers of health problems and increasing amounts of pain (HERE). 

Although I believe that the average person could benefit from some sort of periodic chiropractic care, how many people do you know who are getting lots and lots of adjustments, but not getting any sort of tangible long-term relief?  I can assure you that there are many.  At Schierling Chiropractic LLC, our goal is to get you out of pain as quickly as possible (emphasis on “as quickly as possible“).  Is this simply hype?  One of the common threads you’ll see if you watch any of our VIDEO TESTIMONIALS is how quickly people are getting relief with what we do here, with most of the REHAB being done at home. 

Take Annette for example.  After being involved in an MVA well over two decades ago (WHIPLASH), she has struggled with Chronic Neck and SHOULDER PAIN ever since.  About the only thing that would bring her relief was Chiropractic Adjustments.  The problem was, the results were always short-lived.  That is, until she visited our office two years ago.  Two treatments two years ago, and a treatment today has made a night-and-day difference as far as the pain that Annette struggled with on a day-to-day basis.  But instead of me telling you about it, I’ll let her tell you.

The great thing about what I do is that you’ll know in one treatment if it is going to help you.  Note that I did not tell you that one treatment was going to “cure” you, but that one treatment would tell you whether or not you were on track.  For more information, simply follow some of the links on this page.
