From discouraged to empowered! 💪
"Prior to beginning care at Garden City, I was having a host of challenges. I had anxiety that was being dampened by medication (for 7 years), on & off accounts of extreme dizziness & almost passing out, long & heavy menstrual cycles, & constant sickness (as a pediatric SLP, this seems to be a part of the job description). All of the above made it difficult to enjoy my day to day life. I would stay home instead of experiencing life, which is not who I am. I enjoy being out spending time with friends & family!
The frustration truly felt debilitating. I was overwhelmed & felt like I was missing out on so many of the fun aspects of life. I felt unheard by my general physician, & was even laughed at by a cardiologist. 😓
I met with many different specialists (cardiologist, gastroenterologist, autoimmune specialists, etc), none of which seemed to listen or really have any answers or solutions. Garden City is so different because they get to the root cause of these symptoms & have a true solution for what is going on. 😍
I was a bit skeptical when first beginning care. I trusted the process but going my whole life with severe anxiety, especially surrounding health, it just seemed too good to be true that consistent chiropractic care could actually impact & change my life that much (plot twist - it DOES!) 😆
Where I would usually get severe allergies (that would almost always turn into sinus infections), I had minimal symptoms. I noticed around 3 months in that my menstrual cycle was significantly less. I wasn’t (& haven’t been) getting as light headed/dizzy when changing positions. Around a year into care I decided to start weaning myself off of my long term usage of Lexapro (an anxiety/depression medication) & today have been off for 6 months. My feelings of anxiety are much less than they have ever been! 🙌
I am so grateful for neurologically-based chiropractic!!" 🤎
