Helping My Son Who Has ADHD


2011

My son, Kevin, was diagnosed with ADHD when he was five years old. One day his teacher pulled me in for a parent teacher conference and told me that she thought he needed to be seen by a professional. Since then my son have been on a variety of medication – some which have helped him – and other which had left him a shell of his usual vibrant self. I decided to look up different methods of ADHD treatment because my son deserves to live a full life – not a half life that a lot of the medication provides. I joined a great little support group in my town – it’s a support group for those parents of children with ADHD who want to seek natural remedies. I have learned a lot from the group and my own research and hope that all that I have learned will be able to help my son.

Winter is Coming


2011

Last Summer I suffered a back injury cleaning out the garage. After seeing a doctor I was able to get almost back to being right. Then when Winter hit that year I started to feel this dull pain in the upper part of my legs and on really cold mornings I felt a tingling sensation that was so great sometimes it kept me from getting up. It was one of the worst Winters ever, and the snow wasn’t even that bad. Having to deal with the pain and tingling everyday made me miserable. I tried seeing a doctor but all he did was give me a prescription for pain killers and some sort of cream. Well at the end of that Winter my sister-in-law suggested I go see a chiropractor, at that point I was up for any suggestion short of amputation. So my wife and I searched out Sciatica Naperville and we found an office near downtown. I tell you that place was a Godsend, they were able to find that my back was still out of sorts and that was affecting the nerves in my legs. They came up with a plan that would release me of my pain. They first part was to begin relieving the pressure that had been building in my back. They used this device for spinal decompression, it’s basically a machine that stretches your back out. They also used manual adjustments and massage to realign my spine and loosen me up. Once I started feeling looser they began physical therapy to strengthen the muscles in my back so that I wouldn’t suffer another injury. Using basic exercise and electric muscle stimulation I was able to get a lot stronger. Now the dull pain has gone away and I don’t feel that tingling sensation anymore. Thanks to Sciatica Naperville when Winter comes this year I’ll have no fear of pain!
