Why seeing your doctor isn’t always the answer

Most people believe that health happens in a doctor’s surgery. When you become poorly you should go to the doctors and get prescribed medication and you will feel better. 

But have you ever wondered why your problem doesn’t ever disappear? Or why the doctor has to prescribe you with 2 more medications for the 1 pain point you went in for? This is because medication causes side effects so to treat those side effects, you will be given more medication. The medication to treat the side effects also has side effects so you then get prescribed with another one, before you know it you’re on 4 different pills for the 1 pain you went in for. 

I’m sure those of you who have experienced a prolapsed disc, slipped disk or herniated disk have had to go into a hospital to have an epidural and as a result of that be pumped with opiates, other painkillers and even stomach and anti sickness medications. 

This caused a lot of chemical stress on your body didn’t it? Suddenly you felt drowsy? Couldn’t get out of bed? Couldn’t even go to the toilet! As well as this, I’m sure this brought on emotional stress as you may have felt overwhelmed, helpless, dependant. All from the opiates and chemicals you were pumping into your body. 

Here at Life Balance Chiropractic, we have a completely different way of thinking. Rather than putting a plaster over the problem with temporary pain relief, we look at long term preventative care. 

Next time you have back pain, rather than going back to the Doctors surgery where you will only receive temporary relief, why not come into Life Balance Chiropractic centre to receive an initial consultation. You will be able to live your best life and reduce stress and worries through our healing approach. 

Now, you might be thinking “will Chiropractic work for me” or “ It seems like a long time until I am better”, “it seems like a lot of effort when I can just take medication”, but what you have to remember is, the medication is just a plaster covering the root of the problem.

You keep getting frustrated with the symptoms coming back time and time again don’t you?

If you’ve had chronic pain for too long to even remember, it’s going to take your body more than 5 minutes to heal. Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither were our bodies!
