Although I do still have some discomfort, more like a slight burning, it is nothing like I once had. After receiving the news from my spine doctor that I had inoperable degenerative disc disease, I was devastated. Through an organization that I am a member, I attended a lecture by a chiropractor regarding several types of chronic, inoperable conditions. After the lecture, I decided to sign up for a lengthy series of treatments and spent several years under his care. It was a long, expensive series of treatments. At times, I thought I was going backwards and then there was improvement. Dr. Joe brought me out of two years of hell. I still go to him for maintenance. However, since finding a neurological PT, and using a chirp ball along with home exercises, I rarely see Dr. Joe. Still, without his help, I am not sure how much pain I could have tolerated. He literally saved my life!
