Abby R. has been in care with Dr. Katie since February 2018
Why I came to New Day:
I tried physical therapists, traditional chiropractors, orthopedists, and (yes) a hypnotherapist to relieve my lower back pain. One chiropractor, who was also a homeopath, said, “you know, Abby, when a woman carries a heavy burden, her back is bound to hurt.”
I held back the tears, and never saw him again.
My friend Julie Breckenfelder invited me to a networking event and when I saw how Diana responded during Dr. Katie’s demonstration I think yelled out loud, “I want to breathe like that!” Easing my pain didn’t even occur to me. There just seemed to be something magical about the change in the rhythm.
I arrived for my initial visit, obligingly took the tests, answered Dr. Katie’s questions, and was a sobbing mess by the end our time together.
Clearly, the source of this pain was not strictly physical.
My chiropractic results:
Okay, I feel better. If I exercise regularly, including some core strengthening exercises, I am (nearly!) pain free. But I have had those results from specialists before. If I do the exercises, I have more movement and flexibility and less pain.
I feel taller. I walk more straight up and down. And I breathe like Diana.
Dr. Katie’s secret sauce is that while I would love to push aside (or down, down, down) the emotions that are clearly a leading contributor to the pain, Network Care won’t stand for that. Through multiple emotional upheavals (can you say a broken heart, a dying parent, and job layoff) thanks to continued and consistent Network Care, I find that I am emotionally stronger, defaulting to finding the rainbows and sparkly unicorns instead of getting sucked into a downward spiral of self-pity when I hit a bump in the road.
I know this treatment (and combination of Dr. Katie’s magic oils and 80s music mix) is the reason I opened my mind and my heart to the man I will spend the rest of my life with. I have made big decisions about my professional future almost effortlessly. Answers just come to me, because thanks to this care there is a lot less junk in my head, my heart, and my spine.
Why I continue my care with Dr. Katie:
Because, see above.
