Testimonials

July 22, 2008

Just wanted to start by saying that I thank God for Dr. Jakeman every time I walk home with bags of groceries weighing more than just a couple of pounds; every time I reach over my head; and especially every time I see the bottle of morphine pills that I  no longer need for pain.
You see, I have a crushed vertebra in my neck and I had a ruptured disc between my shoulder blades.  I had gone to GP’s, and all they could do was give me morphine for the pain, and I have been to other Chiropractors but my condition only got worse.  So when I came to see Dr. Jakeman I had pretty much given up hope and was making a last ditch effort to find help.

I was taking 1200 milligrams of morphine a day, I couldn’t reach for anything without pain, and I couldn’t carry more than a couple of pounds in either hand without pain.  I had almost resigned myself to be a drug addicted cripple for the rest of my life.

When Dr. Jakeman began treating me I thought that the procedure was too easy to really work.   But I was wrong!!  Within a month to six weeks my pain level dropped considerably.  Enough so that I found I could reduce my morphine by several hundred milligrams, but the detox was too much for me so I went up in dosage until the detox was tolerable.  But I knew that Dr. Jakeman’s treatments were helping me.

Due to the need to detox gradually, it took about a year to get off the morphine completely, but Dr. Jakeman had pretty much freed me from the pain in only about 6 or 7 months.  Since then, I’ve been okay – except when I do something foolish like try to lift more than I should, but then one or two treatments from Dr. Jakeman gets me right as rain, and good to go.  With regular treatments I feel as good as new.  Thank God for Dr. Jakeman.

It’s been two years now, and I’m ok – YAHOO!
Sincerely,
