Candace de Ortiz
WHAT WAS YOUR CONDITION?
It was extremely painful to sit and then try to get up. It was also very tiring to try to stand and walk. If I leaned over I had to find something to lean against and then force myself up.

IN YOUR OWN WORDS, WHAT DID WE DO?
I was a mess. I found out that I had four vertebrae out of line, three spurs in my neck and spurs in my lower spine. My neck was out of alignment and my pelvis was several degrees off.

By the second adjustment I felt much better, and by the third I felt whole again. I really enjoy and look forward to my appointments. I have lost 6 pounds since starting on a supplement to help my adrenal glands. I lost the weight in one week without dietary changes! Previously it has been very difficult for me to loose weight. Even my kidneys are not as stressed out at they were.
WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT FOR OTHER.
