Text from Video…Today, we’re going to go over 4 reasons why I’m one of the most qualified people to help you with your neck and back pain. These reasons are going to explain how I know how you feel, why I know how you feel, what I’ve done about it, what I’ve done for thousands of people and what I can help you do about it to feel better and not only get back to your life, but live your best life. I’m also going to give you three ways that I can help you. They’re all simple, easy. And if you apply any of them, you’ll be back on the road to better health, feeling better and living a more active life.
So here we go. Reason. Number one,
When I was growing up, I was a fitness fanatic. My mom exercised, my dad exercised. My mom still works out every morning. My dad plays basketball four days a week and still works out three days a week. Even now, even today. And I started exercising with my mom. I would go to aerobics with my mom. I would run with my dad, play basketball with my dad. I would play sports with my friends. Wasn’t too good at too many sports. I enjoyed basketball, but once I started exercising to get stronger for sports, I started really enjoying exercise and I was exercising and getting stronger and stronger and stronger and working out. I thought because I had muscles and because I was in shape and because I could run forever that I was healthy and doing everything I could for my health. What I didn’t realize is underneath all of that there’s a spine that all my muscles go on top of. And I had no idea how to take care of that. I didn’t have flexibility and I didn’t have spine health. So while I was doing all my activity, I wasn’t only irritating my spine, but because my spine was stuck or out of alignment, I was actually wearing it out faster with all the activity I was doing. So I know how you feel because I was in severe pain for a whole year. I had to stop doing everything in my life. All my activity stopped. All my exercise stopped and my pain caused me to just sit there and not even be able to take a walk or exercise or breathe or cough or sneeze without being in excruciating pain. That excruciating pain taught me how to do everything, how to lift, how to brush my teeth, not lift weights, but just lift myself up out of a chair or lift a plate to put it on a table.
So it was excruciating, excruciating pain that I was living with for that entire year. And it’s all those things that I learned while I was in pain that I help people with today while they’re in pain, trying to get back on track. But let’s get back to the story. How I know how you feel is because I was in severe pain, not only once, but for two major, major episodes in my life. Why I know that is because I was destroying my spine and didn’t realize it. And for a lot of people that come in, that is the same reason why they are in pain. They feel good their whole life, they just leaned over to do something, and all of a sudden they have excruciating pain. For other people it may be little by little, a tightness here, a tightness there, it gets better for a week or two, but then the pain comes back and it gets worse and worse sometimes with very, very bad episodes. And that why, may be the same why for you.
Your joints could be out of alignment. A joint could be stuck from traumas you had earlier on. And instead of all your activity going towards your body being healthier, it’s going towards your spine, actually degenerating or the disc degenerating. Or just joints producing enough irritation to irritate the nerve, to stop your life. We know what that nerve pain is like, whether it be in one area or whether it be going down your leg or down your arm. So the reason I know how you feel and why you feel that way is because I was in excruciating pain for a year. And the reason why was because I was destroying my spine, which is the case for many people, which makes me very qualified to understand how and why you feel, how you do.
I relied on everything I already knew to try to get better. I relied on exercising. I relied on strengthening the core. I relied on flexibility. I relied on the exercises that made me strong in the first place. I thought if I could just get back to them and make my back strong, it would get better, but it kept getting worse. And it got so bad that in my twenties, right around 25, I actually went and had spine surgery. The surgery was great. I felt a pressure come off immediately. I remember walking around the next morning. It felt like I was punched 50 times in the back. It was sore and tender, like a big bruise, but the pain wasn’t into my back and into the back of the leg anymore. So I started to walk around a little bit and I had some hope, but as I got back to my life, the thing I realized was the surgery cut away the damage, but it didn’t teach me how to restore alignment, keep my back healthy and get it healthy, so that the way I was living my life, wasn’t continuing to destroy my spine anymore.
But because I didn’t know that the spine surgery only cut away the damage, but without knowing how to restore health and keep my back healthy, the pain came back within two years. And that happens for so many people when they get the surgery done, they think that takes care of the back problem. It took care of the damage, but it didn’t restore health or stop the problem that caused the damage in the first place. And as a result for many people, I think the number is 80% of the people within five years, the pain comes back. Fortunately, at that point I had gotten to chiropractic school where I learned how to add joint health, spine health posture, and alignment to my fitness routine. So I had the exercise part. I got to chiropractic school, learned the spine part and started to add the flexibility part and as a result of being there, brought me to point number 4, point number 4 is for over 20 years, I’ve been using what I’ve learned from my fitness routine, from chiropractic school, from flexibility, from taking yoga, from using foam rollers, trigger sticks, and therapy, spinal hygiene, every morning exercises to promote spine and core health and posture and protecting my spine to create the greatest pathway possible for my brain and nerves to go through to get to my body.
Not only so that I don’t have to experience pain anymore, but so that the most health and life possible gets from my brain to my body and that the messages from my body can get to my brain so that I am working at my highest level. Healing and repairing my body at all times happens through my nervous system. And obviously there’s providing the nourishment to it that helps the nervous system do everything that it does…And the nervous system does do everything. Seeing, hearing, taste, digesting food, moving the arms, moving the legs and the smoke alarm that’s in place to protect that system is tightness and pain. The smoke alarm doesn’t go off when that pathway stays clear. So getting my spine as healthy as possible, the muscles as healthy as possible and my body as flexible as possible has been something I’ve been working on for 20 years. And every year as I get a new version of my body, a healthier version of my body, I’ve been more active than I’ve been each and every year since I started putting all these things together, I don’t just do this for myself. I do it for other people all day long, hundreds and hundreds of people, maybe even thousands of people at this point have been getting their health back to their back and neck. And as a result, making a clear path for the nerves to get to the body, taking the pain away because there’s no more irritation to the nervous system, but even better producing better healing and repair so that the body can regenerate the damage that we’re causing it all the time at the greatest rate possible. Because it’s not just the fact that our body’s going to break down. It’s also its ability to heal and repair.
When you talk about a tire on a car, if the alignment’s off, the faster you drive, the faster the tire is going to wear down. And if you get the alignment back, that tire is still going to start at the spot that it’s at. Our body’s a little different. We may have some things we need to deal with, if we let damage go too long. However, if our body’s healing and repairing, and when we find a way to restore alignment and muscle health and posture, all of a sudden, not only does that damage start to diminish, because now our body’s working properly, and the things that we’re doing that we’re making it weak can now be making it strong again, but over time and with consistency, our body has the ability to heal and repair and restore whatever health it’s capable of restoring. So keeping the body in that state is very, very important. So with that, over those years, I have a book. It’s called The Health Equation. It started out with my 1st book Winning Moments, which is a book that shows us how all our daily habits can be used for better health instead of to break us down.
It’s broken down to hours in a day, 0 to 10 hours and so on…, how to get up, how to do a morning routine, how to put your shoes on, how to get in and out of the shower, how to put a wallet in your pocket, so it doesn’t throw off your hips, designing your workplace, designing your home, how to finish your day strong and unwind, de-stress that you had built up from the day. Home remedies, all these different things are just chapters. Then the next book is Health is practically Free. Don’t wait until it costs you everything. Chapter on how life and health works, how the nervous system works, how it heals and repairs, your body, how to maximize that, the things you need to take in…water, air, and food to make sure you’re feeding the nervous system and your body, the things that promote health, like how to have movement in your life, movement is the number one fuel source for the brain. It keeps your joint healthier and body healthy, IF you have alignment, and if you’re doing it properly. How to get rest, positivity and all the foundations of health,
The Health Equation puts all these things together at the very beginning of the book and shows us the power of daily habits, normal versus advanced aging. How does health become as important as we say, it is how the health equation works, how to make less stress in your life and promote more healing so that you get well faster, stay well longer and enjoy your health for your entire lifetime. How to get from where you are to where you want to go, Dr. You and foundational principles, how to keep health simple.
