Dear Friend,
I want to give credit where credit is due. So perhaps a confession can help clear the air so there’s no misunderstanding. Before I talk about this confession, though, let me say a few other things first. Let me start by explaining the photo in this letter.
Twenty-five years ago something happened that changed my life forever. In turn, it changed the lives of many others too. I remember it like it was yesterday. I was sick as a child, suffering from frequent bouts of tonsillitis. I missed so many days of school due to sickness that I had to repeat the second grade! Surgeons finally removed my tonsils but I was still sickly. But that’s not all!
When I was twenty years old, my sister-in-law convinced me to give her doctor a try, at least for a second opinion. The new doctor told me that if he could remove the misalignments in my neck and back and maintain it, my low resistance to colds might gradually correct itself. The doctor examined my back, showed me what was wrong and then “adjusted” my spine. The adjustments didn’t hurt at all; in fact, I enjoyed seeing this new doctor. Gradually, my problem got better! You can imagine my surprise when, not only wasn’t I getting sick every month, but also my health improved so much that I didn’t miss a day of school and graduated college with honors – TWICE! And, by the way, this new doctor was a chiropractor. This experience had a profound impact on my life… and now I’m a chiropractor.
Years ago chiropractic saved me from a life of sickness and suffering, and now I do my best to help others this same way. Now, you’re probably wondering about the photo in this letter. This is my daughter, Arianna whom I love very much. I’ve checked her spine for misalignments since her first week of life and she’s been healthy from the start. I remember a child who was born not so healthy. Timmy had been to all the regular doctors in town and he was just getting worse. Timmy’s mother pleaded with his pediatrician for a referral to a chiropractor. Finally, Timmy was 5 years old by the time his mother brought him in to see if I could help. Timmy’s head and neck was stuck – bent to one side and his right eyelid was completely shut due to nerve damage. It was a horrible sight. I examined Timmy’s spine and discovered several misalignments in his neck, which I concluded were caused during delivery of the birth process. I began a series of gentle spinal adjustments and gradually Timmy responded beautifully! Imagine the lifetime of difficulties he would have endured if it weren’t for chiropractic.
It’s strange how life is, because now people of all ages come to see me with their health problems. Also they come to me with their headaches, low back pain, chronic health problems, neck pain, shoulder/arm pain, whiplash from car accidents, backaches, ear infections, asthma, allergies, numbness in limbs, athletic injuries, just to name a few.
Here’s what some of your neighbors have to say:
“I was hit by a car when I was 12. I flew up in the air in the middle of the street and came directly down on my head. My spine was compressed and at a very young age my back would go out for weeks at a time. I was unable to walk. So I’ve had problems for years and have literally seen hundreds of local Chiropractors because I have good insurance. I have had no problems since I was treated by Dr. John!! I’m 52 now and it’s been 15-20 years since Dr. John Conca’s treatments. He is definitely the best Chiropractor I’ve ever seen. Thanks again John and great to see you back in town.” – Chris V.
“I had a shortness of breath and pain between my shoulders. Dr. Conca has me better than I have been in ten years. Thank you.” – Keith Withey
“My work-related neck and hand injury left me disabled. The M.D. said I’d never work again! Then I met Dr. John. After a few adjustments, I now have full use of my hands! No more migraines and no more neck pain!” – Miechele Cetola
“I’ve worn hearing aids for 5 years because of ‘nerve damage’. Now after seeing Dr. John, I hear better without hearing aids!”- Rick Dishong
“Dr. Conca’s spinal adjustments always make me feel like a new person. I see him often. I leave the office feeling renewed and can enjoy the rest of the week. Thanks again.” – Kathy O’Connor
“The MRIs showed two herniated discs in my neck. After Dr. Conca’s disc treatments, I don’t need pain pills anymore. I can now raise my arms above my head!” – Leonard Vandenburg
“After two spinal adjustments, I could turn my head and had much less pain.” – Betty Albright
“I was having a serious problem standing for more than 10 minutes. After spinal adjustments, I can stand and be more active and I’m sleeping far better!” – Donna Gregory
“I couldn’t do anything without strong pain pills. In the first week of Dr. Conca’s treatments, I got relief. I can now work without pain or pills” – Myrtle T.
Several times a day people thank me for helping them with their health problems. But I really can’t take the credit. My confession is that I’ve never healed anyone of anything. What I do is perform a specific spinal adjustment to remove nerve pressure, and the body responds by healing itself. We get tremendous results. It’s as simple as that!
