Dear friend,<br />
“I know you.” That’s what people usually say when<br />
they meet me in town. Then they say, “You’re Dr.<br />
Rick. I’ve seen your ad with that picture of you and<br />
those two cute little kids.” Well, perhaps I should tell<br />
you a little more about that photo, and why I use it<br />
in my ads. Let’s start with me, the guy in the middle.<br />
23 years ago, something happened to me that<br />
changed my life forever. Let me tell you my story.<br />
I am back in high school training for football in<br />
the weight room. I was doing squats and had some<br />
weight on there. I went to finish my set and rack the<br />
weight, and I missed the rack on one side. My spotter<br />
stepped back already, and the weight fell on me as I<br />
went to step out from under it. I felt something in<br />
my low back “pop” and instantly fell to the ground.<br />
Both my legs and feet were tingling, and by low back<br />
was killing me. I was terrified, both legs tingling, my<br />
low back locked up, and I was crawling on the floor<br />
of the weight room because I could not stand up.<br />
But, then…<br />
My mother suggested I go see this doctor she<br />
recently met. This new doctor does an exam, takes<br />
some x-rays, and then gently “adjusts” my spine. The<br />
adjustment feels great… the tingling in my legs stops,<br />
and I can move my low back again! I feel like it’s a<br />
miracle! Oh, did I mention that this doctor was a<br />
chiropractor? Chiropractic care worked so good for<br />
me, that I decided to go to chiropractic school myself!<br />
That’s how it all started!<br />
The biggest reason I use this picture is to show off<br />
my 2 amazing kids, Cole and Cadence. I have been<br />
gently adjusting both of their spines since they were<br />
born. Cole was born with breathing issues and<br />
didn’t want to latch or eat. His head was leaning<br />
off to one side after the birth process. Once he got<br />
adjusted after they were done running all their tests<br />
and x-rays of his chest, he started to latch and feed,<br />
and his breathing improved! They both love to get<br />
checked weekly, and will sometimes fight to see<br />
who goes first. Oh, and they hardly ever get sick!<br />
Regular wellness care helps keep their bodies “tuned<br />
up” and functioning well. While under chiropractic<br />
care, many kids heal themselves from health issues<br />
like colic, ear infections, bed wetting, asthma, colds,<br />
and allergies, naturally without the use of drugs or<br />
surgeries.<br />
It’s strange how life is, because now people come to<br />
see me with their back and leg problems. But they<br />
also they come to me with their headaches, migraines,<br />
chronic pain, neck pain, shoulder/arm pain, backaches,<br />
menstrual problems, fibromyalgia, low immune function,<br />
“Why Do I Use this Photo in My Ads?”<br />
And what you should know about it…<br />
numbness in their hands and feet, acid reflux, blood<br />
pressure issues, constipation, and digestive issues just to<br />
name a few.<br />
Here’s what some of my patients had to say:<br />
“I can breathe better and never thought I would be<br />
able to ski again after having my lung removed from<br />
cancer, Dr. Rick got me back to breathing better than<br />
I have in years!” - (Bonnie S.)<br />
“I have no more digestive issues and vomiting after<br />
eating!” - (Sarah L.)<br />
“My son doesn’t get sick on car rides anymore and<br />
can ride the bus without being embarrassed about<br />
throwing up!” - (Jill T.)<br />
You should know that I don’t heal anyone of anything.<br />
What I do is perform a specific spinal adjustment<br />
to remove nerve pressure, and the body responds<br />
by healing itself. We get tremendous results. It’s as<br />
simple as that!<br />
Chiropractic is probably the most misunderstood<br />
healthcare profession there is. Its about working with,<br />
and enhancing the body’s natural healing abilities.<br />
Chiropractors find and remove obstruction to the<br />
nervous system, which allows the body to respond<br />
better. As misunderstood as it is, the studies speak for<br />
themselves, like the Virginia study that should that<br />
over 95% of patients who saw a chiropractor were<br />
satisfied with their results. That is just incredible!<br />
Millions of Americans no longer have health<br />
insurance, and those who do have found that their<br />
benefits are shrinking, and their deductibles are<br />
rising. That’s where chiropractic comes in. Overall<br />
the patients seeing chiropractors had 60% less<br />
hospitalizations, 62% less outpatient surgeries, and<br />
85% less costs for prescription drugs.<br />
Special Offer- Look, I know you are smart! You<br />
want to get to the cause of your problem, not just<br />
cover it up with drugs. So, when you are one of the<br />
first 20 people to call and schedule a new patient<br />
exam (by June7) you will receive that entire exam for<br />
$50 (Normally a $265.00 value). That’s with full spine<br />
x-rays, exam… the whole ball of wax, and there are<br />
no hidden fees. But call right now because there are<br />
only 20 of these slots. We will be available to take<br />
calls starting today. Please don’t miss out, because<br />
on Friday June 7th at 6 p.m., this offer will expire!!<br />
Although we do see Medicare patients, by law, this<br />
offer excludes Medicare/Medicaid patients.<br />
Please, I hope that there’s no misunderstanding about<br />
quality of care just because I have a lower exam fee.<br />
