Jan is a local business owner. She runs her own landscaping business and as a result she enjoys a job that lets her enjoy the outdoors. It also means a lot of physical labor. Last year she experienced an awful episode of back pain for which she immediately came to Dr. Saylor for an adjustment. In fact that was the first thing she thought of! Jan has had back surgery in the past and wishes she would have found Van Every Chiropractic before the surgery--maybe she wouldn't have needed it! Watch below as Jan and Dr. Saylor explain how KST treats Jan's back and the emotional responses she's had because of her surgery.

"It’s amazing how much evidence there is that fusions don’t work, yet surgeons do them anyway,” said Sohail Mirza, MD, a spine surgeon… “The only one who isn’t benefitting from the equation is the patient.”
For decades chiropractors have warned people against back surgery. It has an incredibly high failure fate. One of the worst things is that the surgery can result in more pain so the patient has to have more surgery – and is never pain free again.
Please, if you know anyone who is contemplating spinal/disc surgery, have him/her call for an appointment. Studies show chiropractic is safer, much less costly and is a natural way to spinal health. (12)
