I started having severe back pain June of 2006. My doctor prescribed Vicodin after my left hip to my toes developed numbness and tingling. I could not walk. I was admitted to AV Hospital, received CAT Scans, EKG’s and a Facet Block. I was not satisfied with the results and did not want surgery. The pain was so bad and it was constant.  I could not find a comfortable position that eased the pain.  I had difficulty walking and I had to use a walker.
The doctors said I had degenerative discs and pinched nerves at L4, L5.  All sorts of tests were done and I was given choices of facet blocks or surgery.  Facet blocks gave temporary relief and I did not want surgery. 

I have had chiropractic care in the past and had good results.  I made an appointment with Dr. Frye.  I had met some of the staff in 2004 when my husband came to see Dr. Thornton. 

The pain was almost gone after the very first visit and each visit then brought more  flexibility.  I can walk and even ran the other day!    I am grateful for the excellent care I received at AVSC (now Frye Chiropractic).  The entire staff is friendly and caring.  I did not need to take Vicodin after starting chiropractic treatments.
