Let me start by explaining the photo in this letter. You know, when I meet people
in town they usually say, "oh yeah, I know you, you're Dr. Dan. I've seen your ad
with that picture of you and the cute little girls." More about the twins later,
but first I need to tell you a little about my childhood.
|
I grew up in a small town in Wisconsin. I started doing farm work for our neighbor
when I was 10 years old. When I was 12 I suffered a terrible accident. While sitting
in front of a tractor to pick the rocks out of the field, I fell. Not only did the
tires of the tractor roll over me, but the trailer filled with rocks did too. I
was rushed to the emergency room where they did an exam and x-rays. I had no broken
bones and the bruises faded with time, but now my hands and feet were always numb.
I also had a stiff neck and difficulty walking. My parents took me to many doctors
before someone suggessted trying a chiropractor. The Chiropractor did an exam, took
some films, and then "adjusted" my spine. The adjustment didn't hurt, it actually
felt good. I got relief and I could soon walk again without pain. It worked so well
that I believe that is when I decided what I wanted to be when I grew up.

Now for Danielle & Antoinette, the beautiful babies in the picture. When they
were born they were very small. One twin was so stiff she couldn't bend & her
neck was twisted to one side, while the other was so loose she was like jelly. After
discussing it with their mother I adjusted the twin's spines. They loved it! It
was extremely comfortable. Within weeks we saw tremendous results. Now at the age
of six months, Danielle can actually support herself & has more strength &
Antoinette's muscles have relaxed and she can move her neck all around. Both are
gaining a lot of much needed weight.

It's strange how life leads us where we are supposed to be because now people come
to me for help with their neck problems and childhood illnesses. People also come
to me with headaches, migraines, back pain, shoulder/arm pain, whiplash, numbness
in limbs, carpal tunnel syndrome, ear infections, asthma, colic and allergies just
to name a few.

Several times a day, patients thank me for helping them with their health problems.
But I really can't take the credit for their health.
|
My confession is that I've never healed anyone of anything. What I do is
perform a specific spinal adjustment to remove nerve pressure and allow the body
to heal itself. We get tremendous results. It's as simple as that.

Many people find that they are actually saving money on their healthcare expenses
by seeing a chiropractor...studies show that chiropractic can double your immune
capacity, naturally and without drugs. The immune system fights colds, flu and other
sicknesses. With regular chiropractic care, you may not be running off to the doctor
as much.
