Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain condition whose cause is unclear. However, treatment with Chiropractic, Acupuncture, Physiotherapy, light exercises and proper nutrition gives many people significant relief. We have been helping patients with Fibromyalgia in our office for many years.
Jackie
My name is Jackie and in 2005 I moved to Phoenix, Arizona due to Fibromyalgia and chronic pain. I was not able to function on a daily basis; the only thing that gave me some relief was living in a warmer climate. Here in Arizona my pain was a little better, but still very severe. My life to me had no purpose. I felt as though I was getting worse day by day and I was following a road that lead to nowhere and all the medical doctors wanted to do was give me more medicine. Dr. Brown and his entire staff have been an absolute inspiration to me. I had the pleasure of becoming a patient of his on 3/17/05. He understood the way I felt and took me under his wing and from then on has directed me to better health. I had not worked out due to fatigue or extreme pain, so I continued to gain weight. Then Dr. Brown introduced me to the next great thing in his office, Jeremy. Jeremy is my Personal Trainer who has pushed me and believed in me and taught me to believe in myself as well as reach my goals. He pushes me hard but makes our workout sessions encouraging and fun. I have since gained muscle and have almost reached my target weight. Dr. Brown and Jeremy have given me back my life.
They have been everything to me, especially when it comes to my health. Dr. Brown's opinion matters the most to me and he is very passionate with me about which direction I should go. I also do Acupuncture which has increased my energy as well as relieve my anxiety. I can't say enough about this family of people who care about me. Jeremy has given me more confidence than I ever had; my personality and my looks. I feel so good when my family tells me how great I look. I have experienced great massages as well with Kelly. I have become more active and feel alive.
I also experienced having the Manipulation Under Anesthesia (MUA) procedure. After Dr. Brown thoroughly researched this, I was found to be a perfect candidate to have it done. The MUA broke up the scar tissue in my muscles due to the Fibromyalgia. I have noticed a tremendous difference in my daily life. I continue my weekly training sessions with Jeremy and my treatments with Dr. Brown. I have also begun training in Jeremy's Tae Kwon Do sessions every weekend. I am now feeling better than I ever have. I have overcome many obstacles this past year and I feel that the MUA contributed and made my treatments even more beneficial to me.
There's not a thank you out there big enough for what Dr. Brown and his entire staff have done for me and for that I will be forever grateful. Walking into Brown Chiropractic is the best thing I ever did. I not only walked into a professional office, I walked into a family of people who are compassionate and care about you.

I was so glad to hear Dr. Brown was knowledgeable on how to treat Fibromyalgia. After a few Chiropractic adjustments, I started seeing positive results and then Dr. Brown suggested that I have Chiropractic treatment appointments followed by a weight lifting exercise session with his Personal Trainer, Jeremy, in the Rehabilitation Center at Brown Chiropractic. I was so hesitant to go for exercise sessions with the Trainer. I thought I wouldn't be able to do the exercises because I was feeling so bad from the Fibromyalgia, but they work with my capabilities and I'm gradually getting stronger. Weight lifting exercises are something that I thought I would never be able to do.
Dr. Brown has been able to relieve my pain and the exercise has given me more energy through his planned weight lifting exercises. I have found a variety of successful treatments at Brown Chiropractic that give me some relief from Fibromyalgia pain and these treatments have improved my quality of life. Also, I'm very thankful to have found Brown Chiropractic. I find going to Brown Chiropractic a pleasure. Dr. Brown's staff is always friendly and professional.
