Dear Dr. Currier and Tracy,

I am 41 years old and have suffered with moderate to severe back pain, neck and shoulder pain, migraine, and tension headaches and difficulty sleeping for at least 20 years. I was in 2 car accidents as a teenager and endured over 17 years of physical (and mental) abuse.

I would wake up with pain, have pain all day long, have worse pain in the evening and try to go to sleep with pain. Many times in the past I have had Physical Therapy which helped for 4-6 weeks at most. I tried a Chiropractor that was not Dr. J. - went twice and did not return.

Over the years I have taken muscle relaxers and narcotic pain medications for unbearable flare-ups, and most everyday have taken 800 mg of Ibuprofen every 8-12 hours, Tylenol 1,000 mg every 4-6 hours just to take the edge off the pain, and a sleeping pill every night. I bought a Tempur-Pedic bed, Electrostimulation device, heating pads, massaging pads and seats, and many more items that help relieve the pain, but none made the pain go away. I really thought that I was going to live with these horrible pains for the rest of my life (and I am still young).

A friend told me about Dr. J.; she said her back was feeling soooo much better. I have been seeing Dr. J. since January (2013). My back no longer hurts, I hardly ever have a headache and I can fall asleep without taking a pill. I still have a little tightness in my shoulders, but this is improving as well. I love gardening and yard work, and this spring for the first time ever, it did not cause me any pain. My progress is unbelievable, but it is real. Dr. J. and Tracy are both truly concerned about my pain and my needs. You guys are awesome!! Thanks for giving me my life back.

I know what you are thinking, "Do I really want to see a chiropractor? Do I have the money? Does it really work? What's the catch?" Three months ago I would not have been able to answer those questions. Today I will tell you, yes it it worth the money and yes it works, and no there is no catch.

Truthfully I came to LifeSpine as a last resort. I tried everything else. I am a nurse and I did not know what else to do. I was coming home after every shift in tears and barely able to move. I am 24 years old. If I wasn't stuck in bed from back and neck pain, I was stuck in bed from headaches or allergies or sometimes because I just felt like I couldn't handle any pain that day. I was depressed, and didn't know why.

I tried everything to fix the pain. It started out with just taking over the counter meds and a heating pad. It progressed into going to Urgent Care to get stronger medications and put on bed rest. After that I just ignored it. For those of you who may think I am crazy, this is a common thing that nurses do. We aren't very good at being the patient. I ignored it for so long it's no wonder I got depressed. I was 24 living the life of a shut in. The pain was keeping me from living my life.

I started seeing results immediately. Every week I got a little better. Dr. J assured me that even though I had some really sore days I was getting better.

I am not sure if he knows it but Dr. J changed my whole life. I started enjoying going to work again, and everyone (including my patients) noticed. I was able to actually do things on my days off, and enjoy them! I stopped having headaches, and I even got off some of my allergy medication.

Now Dr. J is pretty spectacular but Tracy (who runs the office) is just fantastic, just talking to her will turn your whole day around. They are such genuine people, it has been a true pleasure getting to know both of them. I am so thankful I made the choice to go under their care.

What I tell people about LifeSpine is this: it IS affordable, it IS better than just masking your pain with pills, it IS worth every single penny. Stop making excuses and make your appointment!!
