No More Numbness! Meet Audrey

December 30, 2019By

We’ve got another AWESOME success story for you! Audrey came to us feeling just miserable. She had extreme pain in her back, neck, and legs. Her legs and feet would go numb, making it difficult for her to walk or just do ordinary tasks during the day. The pain and numbness also made sleeping difficult too.

She had her initial evaluation and was impressed with the thorough examination and personalized care plan directed to her specific needs. She says, “Dr. Turner made me feel welcomed and confident that I was in the right place!”

Since she’s been in regular chiropractic care at impACT Chiropractic, she can now walk without pain and the numbness in her legs and feet is gone. “I can get up and down like I have a new body,” she says. She expects that her on-going care will help her to continue to feel better than she did when she started. She shares, “I’m happy to be here and not only have the other patients become friends but Dr. Turner and the front desk have too.”

Crossfit in her 60s! Meet Phyllis!

December 15, 2019By

When she relocated from PA to the Myrtle Beach area, Phyllis knew she wanted to find a chiropractor in the area. A very active person, she got busy with her physical training and daily life until a nagging, persistent headache hit. Her headache was impacting her workouts and her day-to-day life. “Little did I know how much chiropractic care has enabled me to progress and get stronger and more mobile,” she says. Her Crossfit coach referred her to Dr. Turner at impACT Chiropractic for an evaluation.

During her initial evaluation, Dr. Turner explained the findings from the diagnostic testing and what could be done to improve her spinal health. Taking care of her spinal health would improve her quality of life and mobility. After beginning care, Phyllis’ headache resolved and she quickly returned to her routine of extreme physical conditioning at Crossfit three to four days per week. She’s noticed improvements in her physical mobility, stress management, and her self-awareness. She says, “Treatment has allowed me to challenge my body physically while remaining, essentially, injury-free.”

At over 65 years old, Phyllis’ fitness regimen of Crossfit and yoga along with chiropractic care has kept her mobile and strong. She says, “Self awareness, both physically and mentally, has kept my quality of life at a high level.” Who knew being in your mid-60s could look so healthy and strong? We’re proud to be Phyllis’ partner in maintaining and improving her spinal and nervous system health so she can continue to do the activities she loves.

24 Years of Migraines GONE for this Mom! Meet Gina!

February 20, 2019By

As a lifelong sufferer of migraine headaches, I started chiropractic care 24 years ago as an alternative to other types of treatment such as pain meds or Botox injections. My family and I believe in living a natural lifestyle, eating clean, being active and avoiding unnecessary toxins. After I had been in chiropractic care (with a different chiropractor) for many years, something changed about three years ago. I began to experience migraines every 24 to 48 hours. With the simplest activity or smallest movement, my cervical vertebrae would come out of alignment.

In order to correct my cervical issues, a specialist recommended a spinal fusion surgery which would immobilize my head and neck. This fusion would forever alter my physical abilities, even preventing me from being able to nod my head. As a homeschooling mom, business owner and head of an active family, I knew that spinal fusion surgery was NOT a road I wanted to go down. I also believe in chiropractic care and wanted to continue with a healthier, non-invasive alternative.

My chiropractor at the time tried several types of adjustments, therapies and other treatments. The last treatment was being fitted with a cervical collar. I was advised to wear the collar four to six hours every day. And whenever I felt the stirrings of a migraine begin, I was to put the collar on to help hold things in place. Even with this, I still experienced migraines every 24 to 48 hours. Something as simple as sneezing, turning my head or lifting my arms would trigger a migraine. With this, I began to limit and eventually eliminate activities that I loved. I missed out on tennis, bowling, bike riding, rollerblading and even just playing outside with my kids. For two and a half years, I was stuck in this anxiety-inducing cycle of migraine headaches. I wasn’t able to be that fun, active mom anymore and I struggled to maintain as much of a “normal life” as possible for my family.

About six months ago, I ran into Dr. Turner during a career day at a local elementary school. We’re both Conway natives and being I graduated high school with his older brother, we recognized each other immediately.  As we began to catch up, I shared my history of migraines and how they were impacting not just my life but my family as well. He told me that often times, approaching a situation like mine with a different set of eyes and a different set of hands can provide different results. I decided to see if his eyes and hands could help. Within a month and a half of being under Dr. Turner’s care, the constant cycle of migraines that occurred every 24 to 48 hours lessened. And now, I’ve gone 4 months without a migraine!

Dr. Turner has literally given me back my life. That might sound extreme but he has made such a difference. With his help, I can now be that active mom again, pain free, fully engaged in my dog training business and in my family’s life. Reconnecting with Dr. Turner has been a blessing and a gift all in itself. I am looking forward to reintroducing activities that I love and continuing to live an active lifestyle right alongside my family. I am so grateful that this can be a reality for me and many others with the wonderful care that Dr. Turner and his staff provide (including Baxter, who is an excellent office dog and stress-reliever). Thank you for all that you do!!!

Forever THANKFUL,

Gina C.
