Today I went to a chiropractor Doctor in Santa Barbara. He was highly recommended by a good friend. We got a lot of information today! Brian went with me so he could drive, tend to Luke and hear what the Doctor had to say.

I’ve had a chronic back/neck problem for years now. It would get better with some chiropractor treatments but come right back. I have constant muscle spasms and get out of alignment right away after a treatments. It got much worse after the accident I had in September 2009.

With some very unique testing the doctor figured that I had a lot of the bad yeast in my body and wondered if I ate a lot of sugar things. I have some very painful joints in my back and he says its caused by inflammation, which is caused by the bad yeast in my body (or so he is thinking). He also tested and realized I shouldn’t have any dairy or peanuts. He adjusted my back and neck with some different tools and then did laser on the affected areas. The laser goes down deep ( 4 inches), which helps aide in pain reduction and healing.

I left feeling better today. Although tonight the burning sensation is back. I think its gonna be really hard (cooking and figuring out the right foods to eat).

I’m going to be doing an anti-fungal diet for two weeks. Its sort of a detox to rid my body of these things. Basically I can’t eat anything with yeast in it. The diet I have been given is designed to decrease stress to my immune system by avoided foods that stimulate the growth of fungus and yeast. Temporarily abstaining allows my immune system strengthen and heal. I will also be taking a couple supplements that help in killing off the yeast. I’m also gonna try to see this dr. once a week (he’d like it to be twice) but I think I can only do once (if that). He thinks I will feel a difference after the two weeks and after a month of treatments I will be much better!

Brian thinks I really need to try this. I’m very skeptical but found the testing and things he said very interesting!

We’ll see what happens 🙂
