Why do human beings insist that it is quit all right to live in pain?  Especially, when they suffer from back pains that radiate down into their legs?  Or neck pains that radiate into their arms?  Why do human beings insist on taking pills that just dull their pains but do not get rid of their pains?  Wouldn’t it be more logical and a wiser decision to get rid of the cause of the pains?  That is what Chiropractic is all about!  If you combine Chiropractic with Physical Therapy you get even better results.  That is why I have two licenses, a Chiropractic License to restore the alignment and natural motion to the joints of the body and a Physical Therapy License to restore the muscles to their naturally relaxed state.  Muscles that are abnormally tight, press on the nerves that lie underneath them causing sharp stabbing pains.  Joints that do not move properly cause stiffness and the person does not have full range of that joint which eventually leads to arthritis in the joints or cause abnormal structural changes.  I see this joint destruction and nerve pains all the time in my office.  Patients who expect drugs to take away their pains or better yet they ignore the warning signs of pains that come and go until it becomes too late and the pains become more persistent, eventually not going away at all.  That quick fix of a pill just delays the inevitable that become eventually permanent pain or permanent structural changes, such as arthritis.
