Alternative Medicine| Healing
Worried that, after all that medical care following the accident, your daily life
continues to be filled with that nagging pain at the base of your skull? You
know that something is not right.
Not happy with the option of taking a medicine to numb the pain, yet still
having to deal with those debilitating migraines?
Sick and tired of having to having to rely on a bottle of pills to sustain anything
close to a “normal” life?
There is hope: Inside this book you will learn about a special procedure that
realigns the top bone in your neck (atlas), which surrounds your brainstem. When
the atlas is misaligned, the patient experiences a wide spectrum of pain and
discomfort ranging from debilitating headaches and migraines to vertigo that puts
the patient on the ground.
This is a technique so specialized that
out of 60,000 chiropractic physicians,
only .01% is board-certified in this line
of care. If you’re looking for relief from
nagging pain without drugs, this book
may hold the answer.
I n these pages, you will discover more
than a dozen cases where miraculous
changes occurred in the lives of
patients by having their heads literally
put back on straight.
