The time has finally come for me to reveal what I've been doing ever since one year back. Back in December 2013. I went to host a health show at this clinic called Pinnacle Chiropractic. The clinic did some X-Rays scans on me and to take some photos of me.


During the show the chiropractor told me that I have a subluxation of stage 1.5! Subluxation in short means Spine Decay. Obviously I was quite shocked but the doctor did tell me that subluxation happens to everyone. It's just a matter of whether its decaying faster or not.
Guess what. I was only 20 years old and stage 1.5 means my spine decayed of a 30+ years old person.
There are 4 stages of subluxation and im not going to bore you with the terms. Stage 1-3 means you're relatively safe but as for stage 4 means you're too late (like cancer) need to do surgery liao.
Im not going to scare you but stage 4 of subluxation means that the gap in between your spine bones merged together which means your spine will lose the flexibility to bend. So you tell is this serious a not? And one thing that many people will misunderstand that spine decay does not happen only after time. It happens to things you do in life, in regards to emotionally, physically, chemically and so on.
1 mindset that everybody will have is that when you feel the pain then go consult a doctor. But in actual fact when you actually feel the effects of subluxation it already mean that its processed for a decade of time and its because of not correcting it which leads to the many problems that you have. A few effects of subluxation includes, diarrhea, shoulder aches and even insomnia.
And coincidentally I have been having diarrhea everyday for YEARS. And insomnia for a period of time. Shoulder aches I get that quite often too. I thought all these were just mere little things that is happening because it's happening. But I didn't know it was the cause of something even bigger. On top of that. I have posture disorder :

(Pardon the photo la okay, taken one year plus ago de)
Just look at this shit I guess many people may not realize but your spine and neck should be go by the curve of the blue line. And the red line represents my spine. IT IS JUST WAY TOO OFF!!!! I was really in shock to see that and to tell me that I have posture disorder is just too scary! My posture disorder is Forward posture. Which means that my neck on words is shifted forward not aligned to the shoulder and spine. Worse still my pelvis are shifted one higher than the other side!
They should be aligned and they weren't! And my spine tilted In a degree inwards whereby my left shoulder became higher than my right shoulder and its pretty obvious!
So after the first scan and all the doctor performed the adjustments on me. And it works magically... I immediately felt better although the first adjustment I had sores after the adjustments but I can feel that the tension on my shoulders were released! It's like massage but faster and more effective!!
So after the filming the doctors were so kind enough to sponsor the rest of my treatment for the first phase of adjustments which is the period of 12months.
For 12 months I've been attending chiro weekly, twice a week! It's really tedious because I will have to wake u early in the morning and travel all the way to their clinic which is in kovan!! And on days where I was staying in camp, right after camp i have to rush to the clinic and Rush back to camp before lights out at 10.30pm. People keep saying that im a half day soldier, I GENG and all that shit but they don't know this is such a tiring process to go through, and having said that every adjustment I go through i will feel at ease and relaxed which makes me want to sleep. So now I go in the morning i have to come back to work and I feel sleepy in the office!!
Okay so let's cut the grandmother story short... Within this 12 months of chiro experience I had 1 Xray scan every quarterly. So this are my progress :



And after all this, I've finally came to the last day of my first adjustment. And this is my latest up to date Xray scan

Look at the before and after :

YOU CAN TELL THAT RIGHT? The first photo which was taken one year ago showed that my neck spine is like shit its all jagged up and not soft where as the latest one is closer to the optima already AND IT LOOKS SMOOTH! It looks like a neck now in my opinion!! HAHA
And of cos with that said, it makes the first phase of my chiro journey... Now im moving onto my second phase which is to maintain my spine and adjust it even close to the optima!
I really thank Pinnacle Chiropractic for giving me this sponsorship. Never in my life that I think that its chiro would help me in a lot of ways. Now I don't get insomnia that much. I can sleep well at night and feel healthy again. Previously I looked tired and sick now I look more mature and I feel that I have more energy! If you feel the same as what j felt previously. I think you should try and consult a chiropractor and get your spine checked. Do remember that subluxation is a process that happens to everyone. For more information :

Hi!
ReplyDeleteI happened to chance upon your blog while researching. I've recently been diagnosed with the same neck condition, and look for a good chiro. May I know which doctor did you go to at the Pinnacle Chiropractic and during the 1 year of treatment, does it involve only spinal adjustments i.e. twisting and cracking everytime you visit?
Many thanks!
