NECK Letter #5: subject line: Neck Miracles and Myths!
Hello again. Dr. Chris Tomshack here with the last of our HealthSource Neck-Pain-Relief Series—and hopefully the last of your pain as I explain the real secret to eliminating neck pain, once and for all.
It’s a great letter, because almost 90% of the people looking for a pain-free life are actually barking up the wrong tree—and everything they’re trying is making them WORSE!
Here’s what I mean. Imagine a dog chasing a squirrel. He’s barking like mad, nipping at the squirrel’s tail and just about to grab him when the furry little rodent zooms up a tree—leaving the dog jumping, barking and frantically turning summersaults back on the ground.
You can almost see the squirrel laughing.
And then, as you watch the little creature reach the higher branches, you realize he’s jumped onto a limb from another tree, then another, and is miles away in no time—as the dog wears a circle around the tree.
Actually, that’s like the biggest “MYTH” about neck pain—that the problem actually IS your neck in the first place.
Because it’s possible—actually very likely—that your neck pain is coming from a fallen arch, an old knee injury or the stiff lower back that bugs you every morning.
You see, your neck is not only incredibly complex, but amazingly strong and precise—coordinating the movements of thousands of muscle fibers with 21joints in the neck alone—not to mention doing a dance with your shoulder, taking a hand-off from your upper back, getting e-mails from your pelvis, hips, knees and feet, maintaining your balance and keeping your eyes level. Whew!
Anything that’s not lined up BELOW the neck sets off a dozen different compensations—like the ripples from a pebble in a pond.
That’s why some of the most amazing “MIRACLES” we see with neck pain are actually from treating an old shoulder injury, balancing the pelvis, correcting the position of a vertebra in your low back, or giving you a foot support.
That’s also why it’s so much fun being a HealthSource doctor—we get to see “the incredible” every day—watching the most hopeless athletes, workers who’ve lost their jobs, and ordinary folks who haven’t slept well in months—get their lives back when they’re finally out of pain.
It’s fun for us, but even more exciting for YOU…especially when you can:
-turn your head to look behind you when you’re driving (instead of crossing your fingers and relying on the mirrors)
-reach up in a high cupboard without getting a jab in your shoulder or neck
-make those quick movements without even noticing your neck or shoulders in the first place
-doing what you want without fear of sudden pain or embarrassment
So if you’re tired of popping all the pills, trying yoga and exercises you saw in a magazine, running around town trying to find someone who can help you—or just plain sick and tired of living your life in terms of what your neck can handle—then call us now because our complimentary Community Service Screening. This 17-point screening is still available at the time we sent this letter. But it won’t be forever!
