Adult Tethered Cord Syndrome
22062008When I first came to the Spinal Wellness Center one week ago, I had the following health concerns:
Severe and steadily worsening pain, muscle spasms, stiffness, weakness, and clumsiness throughout the left side of the body with worst symptoms focused in neck, jaw, shoulders, arm, hand/wrist, hip/pelvis, leg and foot/ankle. Every aspect of life, from walking to maintaining basic facial expressions (such as a smile) were seriously impacted.
Since receiving care at this office, I have noticed the following changes in my health:
After only a few visits, pain and stiffness are already noticeably reduced. Weakness and clumsiness that had previously been chronic, intense and persistent now develop only later in the day and are becoming less severs and disabling.
While under care at this office, I have also noticed the following changes in my quality of life and/or my ability to function and perform:
My life is already returning to normalcy in many ways. I can walk, drive and sit for longer periods. I am sleeping better, feeling less drained, am able to focus for longer periods without the constant interruption of intense pain and muscle spasms. I am a safer driver and cyclist since I can again turn my head to the left to check traffic when necessary. And I can smile!
