2 Adjustments Later

I had two chiropractic adjustments, one on Thursday and one on Friday. There is LOTS of work to be done. The first adjustments sounded like the doctor got a hold of a bag of Doritos and squashed it every time he pushed on me. After he cracked my neck the heaviness across my eyes just went,'POOF'. I must say last night was THE best sleep I have had in years.

The adjustment I had this morning was AMAZING!!! The damage of my spine is going to take about 4 months to adjust. The doctor explained adjustments like being braces, each visit gradually moves to vertebra into the correct position, and the tail end of my treatments are going to be like 'retainers' phase just so they don't move back.

This is an x-ray of a 'normal' spine:


This is my back a couple days ago. See how my spine curves to the right? AND those are my arms people... not my boobs! Get is straight... haha no pun intended.


This is an x-ray of a 'normal' cervical spine:

Here is my 'straight as a board' cervical spine, which is what's causing my symptoms!

It is so amazing how important our spine is! I only get one spine so I am going to take care of it!
