Review of Positive Motion Chiropractic

As a 31-year-old suffering from chronic back pain ...

As a 31-year-old suffering from chronic back pain from a car accident injury in my low back, I have spent years trying pain medicine, tens units, physical therapy and epidurals. Approximately 3 months ago I was in severe pain, taking muscle relaxers and pain medicine every day. I decided it was time to go get another epidural but would have to spend weeks suffering until I got insurance approval and doctor s appointments scheduled. A friend at work had been recommending Dr. Brant Pedersen for months, but I was scared of trying a Chiropractor as I have dislocated many bones in my life and the idea of popping bones was scary to me. Desperate in pain I decided to try Dr. Pedersen.

After just under 3 months, I am approximately 85% better. I am completely off pain meds and rarely take an occasional ibuprofen. I went from having to stand due to pain my whole 12-hour work shift, to sitting about 80% of my day. Dr. Pedersen not only has done the usual adjustments, but is also very dedicated to giving me the tools to manage my chronic pain, i.e. exercises, focusing on sitting properly, etc.

I would highly recommend trying chiropractic work if you haven t already. I went from thinking I was a 31-year-old with a messed up back for life, to now believing it is simply my body communicating with me that I am doing things wrong. It feels amazing to not be in severe pain, limited in my daily abilities and a prisoner to prescriptions/procedures. A big thanks to Dr. Pedersen and I can t wait to continue to progress. Dr. Pedersen is beyond worth it!
