Throw those medications away!
Ever since
Terri St. John was involved in an automobile accident in 2004, she had been
suffering with unrelenting pain.
“At work I couldn’t walk
across our campus,” recalls the high school English and debate teacher, “and at
home I couldn’t even do simple things like picking something up off the floor.
I would have to lower myself down, pick up the item, and then pull myself back
up.”
Terri says she tried
everything: “I had acupuncture, traditional chiropractic treatment, steroid
injections, therapeutic massage, pain management, prescribed medications, and
traction, but nothing gave me any more than temporary relief.
“Then fortunately, during
my chiropractic treatments with Dr. Johnson, he recognized that I might be a
good candidate for MUA.”
Terri admits she was a
little apprehensive about having anesthesia: “I know people get really nervous
about that, but honestly, only thirty minutes elapsed from the time they took
me back for each treatment until I opened my eyes. There was absolutely no pain
involved, and no after effect.
“It was like I took a
really good nap. And Dr. Johnson is one of the best doctors of any practice
that I’ve ever had. Not only does he take his work very seriously, but he takes
each one of his patients very seriously as well. I always feel like I am his
only patient. When he is with me, I have one hundred percent of his attention.”
Terri had her MUA
treatments in July of 2007.
“It’s difficult to
describe how well it has worked for me,” she says. “I was taking four
medications a day, and now I’m not taking any. I can walk with ease, go up and
down stairs, bend over and touch the floor, traverse the campus, and walk for
pleasure, all basic everyday living that I wasn’t able to do before.
“Dr. Johnson is an amazing doctor.”
