“I have suffered from migraine and tension headaches all of my life. I have taken prescription and over the counter drugs and still have them. What type of treatments do you offer?”
Answer: Here is Terri S. of Fayetteville: “Headaches controlled my life. I couldn’t go anywhere because I was afraid I would get a headache. When I got a headache, I would be sick for three days. I would feel nauseated and would continually vomit for up to five hours at a time.”
Terri suffered with migraine headaches for close to twenty years. She tried over the counter medicine but the effects didn’t last. Her medical doctor would prescribe one medication after another, from potent pain relievers to anti-depressants and Beta blockers. She began to feel like a “guinea pig”, an experiment. Terri finally decided to try a different approach – a natural one. She made an appointment with me. After a thorough examination, she began a treatment plan that consisted of specific spinal adjustments, trigger point therapy, and acupuncture. The adjustment restores normal motion in your joints, decreases muscle spasms, and decreases inflammation in your joints and muscles. An adjustment can be made with a precision instrument or my hands. Acupuncture helps your body produce endorphins (natural pain relievers) and balances your energy flow. Trigger point therapy can relieve headaches by releasing muscular tension and stress in your neck. Terri: “The acupuncture made me feel relaxed and the adjustment took the pressure off of my head. Before, headaches controlled my life. Now, I have control of my Life!” Call 479-587-0227 to make an appointment and go to www.thegibsoncenter.com for more information.
