A Little Brib & A Reply From Dr. Jordan

Back to the Chiropractors ... Zachary wasn't feeling it tonight he wasn't interested in doing anything ... I finally did get him to warm up with the help of Dr. Brown

Then when he went in to get adjusted he did fine until the "gun" got pulled out. Oh dear, he wasn't having it. I understand that it hurts him and it leaves an under the skin bruise on him, but this is part of what keeps him on that level of zero. I called Robert and had him come in and talk with Zachary and let him know that he also feels it best that Zachary do this.

So? The bribe that went down yesterday? Umm? Yeah, he lost the Skylander he had just gained. I told him that he had 1 minute to get adjusted with the "gun", I need to find out what that thing is really called. Z calls it "the gun", or he would lose his Skylander and then every minute after that he would lose another one. Well, he lost that Skylander and nearly lost one more. He was not a happy boy at all. But he left pain free.


Dr. Jordan,
We've been seeing Dr. Brown in Clarksville, he is a Maximized Living Chiropractor. Z's Blog has been updated and you can go there to see his findings and recommendations. I'd like to know what you honestly think about this. Thank you! Michelle


Michelle, 
I am not sure that I understand the treatments, but he does seem quite a bit better. I hope this is sustained! I am not a back specialist, but concerns about spinal misalignment were why I sent Zachary to see orthopedics - I was thinking of spondylolisthesis related to his car accident years ago. As we discussed, I don't know of good "traditional" medical options for Zachary so I think this seems reasonable. It is in a sense, what we were hoping to accomplish with physical therapy, though so far, this seems to be working better. I don't know much about Digital Motion X-ray - questions I would ask before doing it are: 1) how much radiation will Zachary receive with this technique 2) how much does it cost 3) Is it covered by insurance at all? 
My best wishes for Zachary.
