I guess most people don't start going to a chiropractor unless they are in pain.  This was certainly true for me.  I started having terrible lower back pain.  I couldn't bend over or step up.  How could this happen to me?  I was in good shape.  I have been doing weight training for years.  I walk my dog, love to garden, play with my grandson, and love to dance.  When I looked in the mirror and saw how crooked I was, I was worried.  I was falling apart!

My daughter encouraged me to find a good chiropractor.  I looked for the best and found Dr. Tremblay.  Within a couple of weeks of treatment I felt fine.  I thought about quitting, but then it happened, "chiropractic euphoria".  I started feeling better than fine and becoming more aware of my body.  The adjustments, exercise and myotherapy have pushed me to a new place.  Small changes in my body have started happening. 

My balance has improved, the small red veins in my eyes have disappeared, my voice has gotten stronger.  I have become more aware of my posture, started stretching more, and have been able to handle stress better.  My husband had a terrible cold over Christmas and I didn't get it!

Going to AHCHC has helped me to feel like I am working on my whole self and trying to be more proactive in living.
