Tim’s Story
When I was growing up …
I had Osgood-Schlatter disease, which creates a lot of muscular imbalances. As if that wasn’t enough to deal with, I was in a car accident at 16 and injured my back.
Would you believe I saw at least 10 different chiropractors? It felt like I spent my childhood in doctors’ offices. Some helped, some didn’t, and none had the answer to alleviating my pain for more than a day or two.
Then my back started going out. The muscles would just lock up tight, and I couldn’t do a thing. Imagine not being able to bend, sit or move … It was agony.
And it gets worse …
Through a combination of sitting too much at a desk and walking with improper posture and muscular imbalances that I had developed, my L4-L5 disc finally herniated. The pain was unreal.
I went the traditional medical route — I got an MRI, got what I call the “cure-nothing” cortisone shot, and went to physical therapy. The shot lasted about two weeks, and the physical therapist I went to had me doing the wrong movements which made it even worse.
The pain returned with a vengeance. They offered me surgery, and fortunately, I refused.
I rode the opiate train for a while, which was a dark road. Every night I had to fall asleep laying on an ice pack just to get enough relief to fall asleep.
At 30 years old, I was hobbling around like a 90-year-old with a cane. It was terrible. So I pursued the alternative healing path.
I received massages, acupuncture and acupressure. You name it, I tried it. I spent thousands of dollars without much relief. I went to at least 7 different chiropractors — some helped and some didn’t.
I was at my wit’s end — perhaps you can relate?
Then I came across 3 things that made a dramatic difference in relieving my pain and speeding up my recovery:
- True whole-body cryotherapy
- Infrared sauna
- Red light therapy
Now I’m in the best shape of my life. My muscles and back are balanced and properly aligned, and if there’s an occasional flare-up or injury, all I do is some cryotherapy, a full-body red light therapy session, and hit the infrared sauna. These quickly eliminate my pain and accelerate my recovery.
90% of the time or more I’m totally pain-free. The other 10% I might feel a twinge or two, and then I know what to do.
