Pain – Knee pain
Before I came to Comprehensive Health & Chiropractic Centre, I was in severe to moderate pain off and on, but in pain regardless. I am a hairdresser and I’m on my feet constantly, so having an issue with my right knee was obviously not good. My knee would also ache and hurt with weather changes. Past doctors had told me that I would need a knee replacement and that I had severe arthritis in my knee, so I lived with that on my mind. I had arthroscopic surgery done; it helped with my ripped meniscus. Even though I did have improvements, doctors still engraved in my mind that I was eventually going to have to have major surgery. So I lived with the fear of having to go through surgery and being cut again.
I began care with Dr. Russ in October of 2011 and now I feel FABULOUS!!! I haven’t felt so good in a long time, especially with my knee. I feel more pumped to work out now because
my knee has been feeling 110% better than it did before. I’m standing straight and not pigeon-toed. My posture is straight. Not only does my knee not hurt from weather changes, but I also am more educated with regards to my knee. I know now that I don’t have severe arthritis and with continued maintenance, I won’t need to have any additional surgery! What a relief that has been for me!
Now that I have this knowledge and am feeling so much better, I can finish my weight loss goal. I’m 70% there now; just 30% more to go, and now I know I can accomplish it, thanks to the help of Dr. Russell. He’s an awesome Chiropractor; he’s very informative and really cares. I would recommend him to anyone, and I do, but hopefully, they will come to see Dr. Russ in time!
