“I went from a very active and involved mom, wife, and nurse to being basically couch-bound.”
Just two days postpartum, Emily began experiencing debilitating headaches. 😩
She said, “Since I was not typically a ‘headache-person,’ I did an extensive workup with my traditional medical team. When every scan, test, and medication failed to change my pain, I was left feeling hopeless and scared. I went from a very active and involved mom, wife, and nurse to being basically couch-bound. I was unable to engage fully in my life as I felt my old ‘normal’ life slipping away from me.”
After seven months of daily pain and trying every medical specialist and multiple different types of chiropractors, she found PX Docs. “Hearing about the ‘Perfect Storm’ made perfect sense for my situation and symptoms. I finally felt like we were going to address the root and give me my life back.” ❤️
Early on, she began noticing progress. “The adjustments allowed me to move my body more regularly without causing increased pain flares. While the adjustments would often cause a slight increase/change in pain shortly after, I would often have longer stretches of decreased pain. After having daily pain for over 7 months, I was so relieved to see that these adjustments were actually making a change in my body.”
Now she says, “I still have pain that is changing and evolving daily, but I feel supported with a plan. I went from feeling hopeless and without direction to hopeful with a plan.” 💪🏼
✨ Emily’s determination is such a reminder to never stop searching for answers — and for the doctor and team who will truly listen, dig deep, and help you find your way back to healing.
