I had been having chronic health issues for so many years, I can't remember. \r
\r
The first one was my ears. I had seen 3 different specialists over the years about the pain in my ears and the hearing loss. All of the doctors told me the same thing; you don't have an ear infection, we don't see anything wrong inside, it could be your Eustachian tubes, but we won't really know unless we go in and do some surgery and probably put tubes in your ears. I didn't want surgery and decided to endure the pain a while longer.\r

The second issue was the loss of feeling and pain in my hands and arms. It was awful when I slept and in the morning. But by mid-morning, I was semi functional so I just rolled with it. Recently the pain got so severe that I couldn't function, so I went to see my doctor. She said that I should get an EMG, and will probably need surgery to fix some nerve damage. Really? Another surgery? I asked for an alternative and she gave me wrist guards to wear and told me to stop practicing yoga for a month and come back.\r

In the meantime, I met Dr. Jumper and Vickie at an Employee Health Fair hosted by my work. I stopped into their booth to thank them for supporting my company's health fair, I had no idea I would walk out with an appointment to see Dr. Jumper the next day.\r

After getting X-rays and my initial consultation, Dr. Jumper diagnosed that I have scoliosis and forward head posture. He explained that the forward head posture is most likely the reason my ears have been hurting. He also showed me how severely curved my spine was and that is why my hands would go to sleep. Can you believe a woman in her 40s is just NOW finding out that she have scoliosis??? After my first treatment, I could feel my hands, and the next day I noticed no problems with my ears. I have been seeing Dr. Jumper for a couple months, and this has been life changing for me. My workouts have never been stronger and I don’t have the pain I had been living with daily. I couldn't recommend Renew Chiropractic and Dr. Jumper any more. I have never felt better.
