    • Close Chronic Pain

      Well It all started when I was 13 I had an accident and I was paralyzed for a week, back then my parents never took me to the Dr. so I never got checked out. Since then I have had many problems, with back and neck, For years I had migraine's, and I've had cronic pain since then. I've gone to see many different Dr's, most give pills that doesn't even help. I have seen Chiropractors, and the best 1 have seen so far was recomended by a friend, I felt immediate help the first time I saw him.
