Thursday, October 7-October 13, 2010 www.shelbyinfo.com Paid Advertisement Now in Shelby, a local clinic is helping fi bromyalgia sufferers have less pain, more energy, and enjoy life. If You Suffer From Fibromyalgia, It’s Not Your Fault! Clinical studies have shown the majority of fi bromyalgia patients started having symptoms after a traumatic event like a car accident, work injury, or a fall. If you suffer with fi bromyalgia or chronic fatigue, you know how demanding life can be. One fi bromyalgia patient said it like this… “For people who take good health for granted, it’s hard to imagine a condition that makes simple tasks great tests of will and determination.” Do You Have Any of the Following Symptoms? • Aching all over • Disturbed sleep • Tender points in the neck & shoulders • Recurring headaches • Fatigue & Stiffness Contrary to what some people believe, you’re not lazy or crazy. Fibromyalgia is a real disease with real pain. Maybe your past doctors don’t even think fi bromy- algia is a real disease, but you know it is. You feel it every day -- when you wake up in the morning, when you try to keep your house cleaned...even simple tasks like cooking dinner become a chore. Mark Pelligrino, MD (author of The Fibromyalgia Survivor), reported that after studying over 2,000 fi bromyalgia patients fi les, he found two-thirds of fi bromyalgia patients started having symptoms after a traumatic event like a car accident, work injury, or a fall. Another study published in the 1997 issue of Arthritis And Rheumatism, said fi bromyalgia is 13 times more likely to occur following neck injury than following a leg injury. Prescription drugs are at best “masking tape” that covers up the daily warning signs of a painful disease. Pain pills, even over-the-counter medications, don’t fi x the cause of your problem. They may be necessary for a momentary crisis, but using them long term is no way to live. Many of these pain medications are quite addicting and have very real side effects. Have you been everywhere, tried everything, and are still suffering? Fibromyalgia is often called the invisible disease. You look fi ne on the surface, but underneath you’re often exhausted and in excruciating pain. My name is Dr. Rich Berkowitz, owner of Carolina Chiropractic Plus.

Finally, A Proven Solution For Fibromyalgia Pain Numerous studies have shown the benefi ts of chiro- practic care in fi bromyalgia patients. Dr. Frederick Wolfe, a well-known investigator of fi bromyalgia and clinical professor at the University of Kansas School of Medicine, ran a study on fi bro- myalgia. He asked patients to indicate drug or alternative treat- ments that best relieved their pain. Dr. Wolfe found that changes in lifestyle worked bet- ter than drugs and stated “Chiropractic treatment also scored among the most effective measures.” Another study examined the effectiveness of chiro- practic in relieving fi bromyalgia symptoms.
