In the United States, it’s estimated that more than 7 million adults are living with a hip or knee replacement. In many cases, surgery doesn’t guarantee complete relief, but the decision to undergo the knife is irreversible. Before taking drastic, invasive measures, consider gentle, preventative therapies like chiropractic. That’s what these patients did, and now, they’re back to living their lives pain-free. Here’s how they did it.
A New Energy Behind the Chair
“About two years ago, I hurt my knee really bad from working a 12-hour shift behind the chair at the salon. It stopped me from exercising, running and long shifts at work. I got massage regularly and took painkillers every other day. And then my younger sister, who works for Chiro One, explained to me how [chiropractic] could change my career and energy level.
At first, I had no idea what chiropractic was. Now, I have rarely any pain. My knee doesn’t ever bother me anymore—my feet feel great and my hands never bother me, either. I feel like I just prolonged my career as a hairdresser, and I have more energy to enjoy my life after work.”
