Chronic Neck and Back Pain |

|
| I was in two car accidents about twenty-three
years ago and suffered severe whiplash in my neck from both crashes.
I was encouraged to have neck surgery after both accidents but declined.
So, by my choice, I decided
I would have to live with the pain, headaches, fatigue and poor posture.
Because of my job, I am forced to sit in certain positions for several
hours at a time, that leaves me in a lot of pain and with pounding
headaches. I would have to take over the counter pain medication three
or four times a week for headaches and stress in my neck.
In the past couple of
years, I have had increased lower back pain. Often at night, I would
toss and turn because of back pain, waking up nearly every hour. Even
purchasing a very expensive mattress was no solution to the pain. |
Finding Dr. Scott has been such
a blessing. For the first time in twenty-three years, I am not just
coping with the pain. I have experienced a significant difference in
the way I sleep. I don't toss and turn anymore because of the lower
back pain. Dr. Scott has not only treated me, but also taught me exercises
to strengthen my lower back. I have not taken any pain medication since
the first week of treatment. My posture is considerably better, and
I feel like I stand and walk in a more erect fashion. Living without
pain is incredible.
My suggestion to fellow sufferers is to follow
the treatment plan Dr. Scott issues and incorporate the neck and back
exercises she recommends into your daily regimen. I only wish I had
discovered Dr. Scott years ago! |

Upper Back and Shoulder |

"I strained muscles
in my back and shoulder after lifting heavy objects. I was having
constant aching in that area, as well as weakness, that was causing
me to have difficulty holding my posture. It was even affecting
my golf swing.
One treatment from Dr.
Scott took care of a very large portion of the problem. I continued
treatment to help strengthen the area and prevent re-injury.
I have had treatment at
Clemson University, as well as the PGA tour fitness trailer. These
people offer the highest level of care. I believe I received this
level of care from Dr. Scott. Plus, they are all such an upbeat
group; just walking in the door makes me feel better."

| "I
have two fused vertebra, which caused back pain during my marathon
training, in addition to job stress causing frequent neck problems.
The results I received
at Dr. Scott's office were phenomenal! No Chiropractor has
ever helped me as much. With Dr. Scott's spinal adjustments,
flexion therapy and that wonderful muscle stimulation machine,
I was able to train for (and run) last years Thanksgiving marathon
virtually pain free. No low back problems, no neck problems,
no knee problems. Never had I experienced such positive response
to chiropractic care. I can't imagine professional athletes
receiving better care. Anyone who exercises constantly, or
plays sports, could benefit greatly from Dr Scott's very sophisticated
treatments.
If my experiences are
any example, it not only helps you train, pain and injury free,
but also improves your performance. What more could you possibly
ask for? Thank You, Dr. Scott!!!"

Headaches |

| "For
years I had severe to moderate headaches. About five moderate headaches
a week and one severe headache every other week
so severe that
often times caused vomiting and an occasional trip to the emergency
room. Doctors prescribed many drugs but did not eliminate the problem.
Also, I feared the amount of drugs I was taking.
I started seeing Dr.
Scott, and after my third visit I went in with a headache and
within an hour after my adjustment my headache was gone. After
the third week of adjustments I went the whole week without any
kind of headache what so ever, a real landmark for me, considering
the amount of headaches I suffered in an average week. Chiropractic
was a last resort for me. I was about to check myself into a
headache clinic upon the request of family and friends. I was
very happy to find such a simple answer to such a prolonged problem.
Praise the Lord! And Thanks Dr. Scott!!!"

| "I
had muscle ache and pain in the neck and back for years. It was difficult
to drive and perform my daily real estate duties. I tried physical
therapy and medical doctors. They recommended I have surgery and
cortisone injections, but I refused.
Since seeing Dr. Scott
I have greatly improved in a very short period of time. Dr. Scott's
treatment and exercise program are very effective. My headaches
and throbbing neck and shoulder pain have healed and I can drive
my car and show homes for hours, and not be in pain. I have referred
my husband and daughter, and they are improving quickly! I most
enjoy my visits because of the warm atmosphere of her office
and the friendly staff. Everyone, especially Dr. Scott, is always
very congenial, courteous and caring. I have told many friends
and relatives about this wonderful office."

Dr.
Jane Scott has helped me with my two neck injuries more than
I can say. Acting and modeling can cause a girl to be tossed
around and thunked in the head by a backdrop. Dr. Scott was there
for me both times to help me through the pain and straighten
me up. Sometimes, I neglect my body or overwhelm it by excessive
travel. Dr. Scott knows how to put me back together again. Dr.
Scott and her staff are always so warm and friendly. They are
helpful, accommodating, and patient, even with me! Trust me,
I can be a handful. I don't know how I would have gotten through
my neck injuries without her. Dr. Jane helps me stay healthy
and productive. Ya can't get a lot done when ya sit around complaining
about having a pain in the neck. Dr. Scott's adjustments, and
therapy, and advice help me live a happy and healthy life! Thank
You, Dr. Jane Scott!!!!!!

| "On
October 23, 1999, I had a fall of twenty feet from a deer stand,
landing flat on my back. I was numb from my waist down, and in severe
pain from my neck to my waist. I had life flight from Newton County
Hospital to Shepard's Spinal center. After a CT scan, it was determined
that I had a spinal injury at T11 and T12. Surgery was performed
at Shepard's Spinal Center, inserting fourteen-inch rods to stabilize
my spine. I spent sixty-eight days in the hospital and six long months
of rehabilitation at Shepard's and at home.
On the approval of my
Doctor and Physical therapist I started seeing Dr. Scott to control
the pain. Her gentle technique and wonderful therapy gave me
relief. By the grace of the good Lord and with the combination
of daily exercise, bi-weekly visits to Dr. Scott, and a weekly
massage from Karla, I was able to go back to work May 1, 2000.
I still have bad days along with good days, but the good days
are becoming more frequent! Thank You, Dr. Scott!

| "I
had severe pain in my back and radiating down my leg in to my ankle
for over a year. As a realtor it was very difficult to drive my customers
to listed homes because of the pain. It became so unbearable I went
to see my medical Doctor who suggested I see Dr. Scott.
In a couple of months
I was feeling no pain and found I could walk up stairs pain free.
I was driving customers around, and getting in and out of my
car with no problem. It's impossible to think how long I suffered
with this and how quickly Dr. Scott had made my life good again.
I would recommend her to anyone at any time. In the past I tried
other Chiropractors with no success. It took a lot of hurting
and my doctor's referral to try it again. But I know if you want
to feel like you used to, she is the doctor to go to! All I can
say is Thank You, Dr. Scott!!!"

Back Pain - Scoliosis |
|
 |
|
| "I
had severe, chronic mid and low back pain with scoliosis, which had
been constant for over ten years. Every facet of my life was impaired.
When the pain began to interfere with my competitive obedience trials,
I came desperate and scared silly to Dr. Scott.
Dr. Scott soothed my
fears, took a complete medical history and x-rays. She began
to treat the muscle spasms and put me on home exercises, pain
relief began almost immediately. She made it clear she could
not fix the scoliosis, but could relax the spasms causing my
pain. Progress was steady and my pain was virtually gone in a
month. I could now drive eight hundred miles, show my dog and
frequently win. When I get back home my pain is not a problem.
My rheumatologist is tremendously impressed with the results
Dr. Scott has had with my back pain. As a patient it is reassuring
to know my Doctors, both M.D. and Chiropractor are willing to
work together for my welfare. I wish I'd tried chiropractic years
ago!"

Stress |

|
| Dr.
Jane Scott offers great relief from the stresses of show business.
After working and traveling to entertain people all over the world,
my back and spine utter a sigh of welcome calm after a gentle adjustment
at Dr. Scott's office. Her staff of wonderful support people are
always accommodating to various schedules. I would highly recommend
her office to anyone! |

Hip Misalignment |
|
 |
|
"My problem was the excruciating
agony of having once been a scratch golfer and then not being able to hit it
worth a lick.
Dr. Scott has been helping
me with my back for over a year but it is only recently I learned how
much she could also help me with my back swing. After a twenty-five
year hiatus, I started playing golf again, but I really struggled.
My Pro told me I wasn't getting a good enough hip turn. It turned out
that my hip was out of alignment. After a few weeks of treatment, something
miraculous happened. I suddenly started hitting the ball better
a
lot better! It was all due to a much better hip turn
, which was
all due to Dr. Scott's pinpoint diagnosis and treatment. Golf puts
tremendous stress on our low back, hips, shoulders and joints. Especially
those of us who qualify as "senior" golfers. The kind of
stress it takes a real pro like Dr. Scott to address. They may call
the David Ledbetter's and the Jim McLean's of the world "swing" doctors.
But for my money, the real "swing" doctor is Dr. Jane Scott."

"I experienced
persistent pain in the neck and shoulders, and tendonitis in the
right elbow. I tried medications with no success.
After Dr. Scott's treatments,
numbness in my right thumb and soreness in my shoulder is gone.
The tendonitis is much better, and I can now sleep pain free." |

Herniated Disc |

Emily Santana |
|
"I could not
function because of two herniated discs, and severe sciatica. I
became immobilized for weeks. I especially couldn't sit. When it
first happened, I collapsed to the floor. I tried many doctors
and another chiropractor but to no avail. I started seeing Dr.
Scott and she is the best! She is very thorough and caring. She
encourages daily stretches and regular visits to strengthen the
back. These combined have made me so much better. I am in no way
the same as I was a year and a half ago. Dr. Scott is highly skilled
with her hands. I highly recommend her!" |
