It's So Sad...

Chiropractic For Animals Can be Very Helpful

It's always about the money. I was recently reading how animal chiropractic is been very popular because of the success with it. Animal Chiropractor Daniel Kamen stated "Why spend $5000 on hip dysphasia surgery, when a simple, almost free, chiropractic technique can prevent it's onset".

Because it's all about money, some states are banning Chiropractic on animals. Thank goodness we can adjust people... But we still are pretty well cemented into the drugs and surgery model. If we do this then that's less surgery candidates, if we do that patient don't need this medication for the rest of their lives...

To close, I just want to say that you really need to take care of yourself and do the research before undergoing any treatment.

I Have Butt and Leg Pain - HELP!!!

Pain with Numbness and Tingling in the Leg and Butt?

You have pain that is in the butt and the leg, what can it be? Is it on both sides? Is it a pain, numbness, tingling...? The sciatic nerve travels down your rear (goes between the two heads of the piriformis muscle) and then travels down the leg. Sometimes depending on where it is you can tell which nerve root in the back is effected. Is it in the feet - might be the L5 or S1 nerve root? Is it just in upper thigh - might be L3.

Nerve roots exit the spine, and in the lower part of the body, form the sciatic nerve, which goes down the leg. Hence the term "Sciatica". So your pain can be back related but maybe it started in the leg? Ask yourself, what might have triggered this? That will help you find the answer.

Your doctor will send for xray or an mri and do and exam, this will confirm it. Chances are it may just be a good strain. Inflammation builds up somewhere and creates pressure; then you get a symptom.

The Busy Active Lives of Teenagers....

Chiropractic for teens is important
especially ones involved in sports such
cheer leading, soccer, gymastics etc.

On a recent episode of Keeping up the Kardashians, young Kylie Jenner makes a trip to her chiropractors office to have her neck adjusted, all in the midst of the Kim K Drama!!

Getting adjusted is important as a young person is important.
In many cases we see patients this age because they are very active with studying, gymnastics, volley ball, cheer leading and other activities such as texting on their phones.

Misalignments in the spine can arise causing poor posture, neck pain, mid back pain, headaches and lower back pain. If corrected when younger, it's much quicker and easier to fix.

there are no surgical procedures that could be performed...

"I have had low back pain with radiation down the left leg due to three herniated discs and a ruptured disc above the herniated discs. After having an MRI and a surgical consult, it was determined that there are no surgical procedures that could be performed. I was left with using medication with minimal results. My sister heard about spinal decompression and passed on information downloaded from the CT Spine and Disc Center from their website. After reading all about spinal decompression there was no doubt in my mind that this was the treatment I was looking for. After making an appointment and talking with Dr. Bellinger, I was even more convinced this treatment was for me. Everyone in the office is very personable and the treatments were painless. After 15 treatments, I am more pain free and no longer have to rely on medication for relief. I’m now able to walk longer distances and climb stairs again, I am just so happy, I’m smiling again and I would not hesitate to recommend this treatment to anyone! Thank you so much for giving me a new lease on life!”
Judy.B (Coventry, Connecticut)

At the end of this treatment, I no longer need assistance of a walker or a cane to get around..

"After abeing told surgery was my only option I was put in touch with another treatment called the DRX 9000. My pain was so bad, I could not do anything. After four treatments, I was able to stand up straight and walk again. I am now able to do almost everything I did before, and am enjoying the freedom I had before. At the end of this treatment, I no longer need assistance of a walker or a cane to get around. I am so thankful I had another option. Thanks to the Doctors and staff at CT Spine and Disc Center. I am doing very well.
Anne. B (Tolland, Connecticut)

...my pain level is now almost zero

I must admit that, that given the pain level (10+) that I was enduring when I first came to your office, I was highly skeptical of a positive outcome with the DRX9000. Following the regimen of treatments that you prescribed, my pain level is now almost zero. Before coming to you, I knew that the road to recovery was slow, but thank God for this machine and your professional care. Very seldom will I endorse a product. In this case, however, not only do I endorse it, but I offer to any person who may be looking for help, the opportunity to speak with me in order to give them my first hand opinion of this "Miracle Machine" and your miracle skills. Thank you for that you both have done and I look forward to continuing the maintenance sessions. "
Greg Zlotnick (Mansfield, Connecticut)

This is your light at the end of the tunnel...

"Approximately two years ago, May 2005, I was diagnosed with polymyositis. At which time I was put on steroids. It helped the pain some but I did not like the side effects, so I tried Physical therapy which only made me feel worse. After three emergency trips to the hospital and with xrays and MRI's I was told I had 3 herniated disks pressing on my sciatic nerve. I was not ready to take on surgery if there was an alternative and thats where the procedure at the Spine and Disc Center with Dr. Bellinger and Dr. Gill made all the difference in the world. On my first visit on Febuary 28th 2007- I needed a walker, my husbands arm just to get in the building. After the first two treatments I felt immediate results. The treatments were gentle and painless. For close to two years, I have had difficulty in walking, sitting or standing. Thanks to the technology and exceptional care from Dr. Bellinger and Dr. Gill- I no longer need my walker and my pain level has gone from a ten to a zero!! And I don't cry as much either. I highly recommend this procedure. A friend of my daughters suggested that I try this as he had wonderful results also. I would also like to compliment the receptionist Jessica for her efficiency and kindness. I mentioned to her, the Doctors should hang another sign outside the door saying "This is your light at the end of the tunnel"
