Dave Dietz Overcomes 25 Years of Back Pain with SoftWave Therapy at Harcourt Chiropractic in York, PA
Dave Dietz, from York, PA, a patient at Harcourt Chiropractic Office, is sharing his story to help others in the same painful situation he was in, and to show how he finally found relief. Dave had been dealing with chronic back pain since his early 20s, and as he got older, the pain progressively worsened over the course of 25 years.
He used to visit doctors who prescribed muscle relaxers, which helped temporarily, sometimes the pain would stay away for 3 to 7 years. But every flare-up would leave him laid up in bed, unable to function until the pain subsided. Friends had urged him to try a chiropractor, but Dave was hesitant, until the pain became too much to ignore. One day, he finally made the call, and he says he has "not regretted it one bit since."
His back pain often came from playing sports, lifting weights, or even doing something simple like tying his shoes or sneezing. The pain would trigger severe muscle spasms, sometimes so intense that he would drop to the ground and crawl to move around. Episodes would last 3 days to a full week. In between, he dealt with constant mild pain, relying on ibuprofen and rehab exercises, but he was afraid of having to undergo surgery.
Dave wanted to be able to hunt with his sons, spend time with his wife, and enjoy life again. That’s when he came to Dr. Gary at Harcourt Chiropractic. He began treatment three times a week, and within the first week, he noticed real improvement. After just one month, he felt 95% better.
"I feel better than I have in the last 20 years. I can spend time with my dogs, go out with my kids, and I’m even planning to start golfing again."
"If anyone has pain, don’t wait, come see Dr. Gary at Harcourt Chiropractic."
Dave finally has his life back, and he’s grateful to the team that helped make it possible.
