Another success story!

June 28, 2011

When a co-worker of mine told me about Scott at HealthPoint Laser Clinic, I was on pills for chronic pain of migraines, neck pain left side, bicep left arm pain, lower back pain, swelling of the knee and foot all on left side.  Had been adjusted by Chiropractic for 35 years and always told that I would have to increase treatments if I wanted to get better.

At first the migraines with Chiropractic appointments eased up. The treatments would last between 3 and 4 months.  In the last year, treatments wouldn't help for more than a day.  So, the myth of Chiropractic repeat visits treating the symptoms no longer made sense.  They always told me that the treatments would decrease not increase and a cure was just around the corner.  My visits increased to once a month, to biweekly, to working for one day and the migraines and chronic pain would be back the very next day.

Over the years, there was a lot of money spent on Chiropractic.  Don't even want to think about that.  I stuck with Chiropractic because it was the only treatment available besides medication, which was just not an option for me, as I dislike taking any type of medication for any extended period of time.

Off to the doctor, all kinds of tests that came back normal.  So, nothing left to do but medicate.  Well, the pills had a side effect.  I slept for 10 to 12 hours a night.  From being an active person who only needed 5-6 hours sleep every night to having no energy and couldn't wait to crawl in to bed.  Migraines were gone, back pain gone, but swelling symptoms were still there, so pills were just masking the problem.

I heard of Scott and how laser treatments worked, made an appointment for an assessment.  After filling out a detailed questionnaire on why I was there, Scott assessed and I started treatment that day.  Low power to see how my body would react.  Migraine was abating by the time I left the office!  Three weeks later, I am pain free, swelling is gone in the knee, leg and foot.

I can put on socks.  That may sound weird and I didn't even realize the struggle I was having with that, until it wasn't a struggle anymore.  I can get up from sitting on the floor without the aide of a close-by chair or person.  Pills are gone too.  Worked off them gradually, afraid that the pain would come back.  So, today when I canceled my latest appointment with Scott at HealthPoint, I kind of felt guilty, but then its his own fault.  If the treatments he`s providing didn't work so well, he could get years of appointments from acting like all the Chiropractors I've seen. :)

So, to summarize:  a broken, tired, drugged, aching person that was yawning and always exhausted, sleeping my life away, to 3 weeks later, off pills, no pain, back to regular sleeping habits and sleeping soundly with no tossing.  I am now back to gardening, mowing the lawn (yuck) taking long walks with the dogs, zip line, hiking, exercising, AND all my shoes fit again because my foot is no longer swollen.

So, thanks to you two, Scott and Sarah at HealthPoint Laser Clinic for giving me my life back in 6 painless treatments.

Yours forever,

Kim S.
