No.. I am only doing the intensive until I get below 10/10 (which looks like ,fingers crossed. I might be able to do) I'm hoping this is my last 2 week intensive...we'll see..
IF I get below 10/10 I probably will have to do a little something...but I'm sure, nothing, like what I do now. Not sure what it will be...I'm thinking..maintence of the "good curves" and some kind of strenthening to keep the spinal muscles as even as possible on both sides. That would be my guess... but I'll see when I get there.
My goal right now is to get my numbers as low as my spine will let me!!! It has been alot of work, but compared to where I was when I started !!!(Pain...Deformed... 32/36..)this past year of Clear has been so worth my time.
Hope you have straighter days ahead !!

Hi artgirl,
Yes, for me, some of the treatment was painful...some of the adjustment work, and tight strapping on the table and chair..
You get used to it ....and of course it is so worth it...but I did want to tell you some of it does hurt.. not horribly... kind of like a bad discomfort.
Hope this helps...I've done intensive for 3 weeks total, so far (I'm doing another in May) don't be too worried about it...you'll adjust to the different sensations..and you'll love how it will start helping your spine!!
Good Luck. |

| Thank you for the encouragement! There are definately some difficult days fitting all of the rehab in. I am trying to not be fearful of potential loss but instead excited by potential gains. Comments like yours let me know that gains are absolutely possible!:) |

I am a 35 year old woman who was diagnosed with scoliosis in a middle school screening. Over the next year and a half I was put through a series of treatments, none of which slowed the progression of my curve. I ended up in a Boston brace. I was so uncomfortable and embarrassed by the brace that I would take it off when I got to school and put it into my locker. By high school surgery was suggested but I was not interested. I went through college and then into chiropractic school. While at chiropractic school I started encountering some back pain. Specialists were brought into the student clinic to assess my case but no one knew what to do with me. I was really starting to lose my faith in chiropractic - the profession I was about to enter.
My husband (also a chiropractor) and I opened a practice and started our family a few years later. After the birth of my daughter my curve increased as did the deformed look of my back and my health was declining. Last fall we had x-rays taken to find that my curve was now 64 degrees in my lumbar spine. I was losing hope knowing that traditional chiropractic wasn't able to help and I was too young to go through life with the daily pain and dysfunction I was experiencing.
When I heard about CLEAR Institute I immediately began doing extensive research. For the first time in decades I had hope! At first I couldn't see how we could afford the care, traveling, the traction chair, etc. It was through the grace of God that everything fell into place quite quickly. I recently returned from my two week intensive treatment at Dr. Stitzel's office. Both as a chiropractor and as a patient I was truely amazed by the process. Yes, it was difficult mentally and physically at times but I would have pushed ten times harder if I had needed to. I finally had the opportunity to wash away the years of emotional and physical pain associated with my spinal deformity. I feel like I have control again of my health. That is a wonderful feeling. The end results of my treatment truely amazing. More important than the numbers, to me, is the fact that I am standing upright for the first time in years and I am not trying to hide the hump in my back by wearing baggy clothes. It hardly exists now!
Thank you to all of the doctors involved in CLEAR Institute for the work you are doing and THANK YOU Dr. Stitzel and staff for the expert and caring way that you deliver your care.
May God bless all of you. |
