Two years ago, I had a big, painful lumbar disc hernia. One week before surgery I met Dr. Angela Olaru through a friend.
She said that in my case the micro surgery was the best option. Nevertheless, she proposed a week intensive chiropractic treatment (twice a day, every day) before the surgery, to recondition the entire spine by removing all vertebral subluxations (blockages), relaxing the paravertebral muscles and rebalancing the whole body.
My experience was extraordinary.
Because of this intensive treatment surgery time was reduced by half. According to the doctor, who operated on me, there was barely any bleeding and the hernia came out almost by itself.
I could go home after one day of hospitalization. It was so unusual that the surgeon wanted to meet Dr. Olaru.
After recovering from the operation I follow regular chiropractic care, to maintain spinal health and ‘hygiene’ with positive effects throughout the body.
One of the most amazing experiences for me was that I recuperate my olfactory sense. I had almost lost the sense of smell due to severe allergies during my adolescence and one day upon leaving the chiropractic office, I was suddenly realized that I was able to ‘smell the air of Sant Cugat’!
I learned that everyone should take care of the spine, which protects the spinal cord and allows the passage of all the nervous connections to all our vital organs, One should go to the chiropractor regularly just like going to the dentist or gynecologist.
Now I pay more attention to myself, listening more to body, I do daily exercises to strengthen the spine and when I notice an alarm signal, do not wait to feel pain in order to call for an appointment.
I have recommended chiropractic care to many people and will continue to do so with great conviction.
