PMS Improved with Chiropractic
Dr. Scherer
 A recent study was performed to determine the effectiveness of chiropractic for the treatment of reducing symptoms associated with Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS). The subjects were given an initial medical screening by a qualified medical practitioner as well as a full physical chiropractic examination. Spinal dysfunction and subluxations were identified using
standard techniques. All of the treatments were rendered by one of two experienced, qualified chiropractors, with each woman being treated by the same chiropractor throughout the study. Treatment was given two or three times within the ten-day period prior to the commencement of each menses. This was continued for a minimum of three cycles, during which time the subjects recorded their symptoms daily. At the end of the treatment program, all of the women had indicated that their PMS symptoms had improved overall while under chiropractic care and they considered chiropractic an appropriate method of treatment.

Announcement
It's May...A lot of our patients will be graduating from high school or college this month. As a former educator and as someone with three degrees, I can appreciate the long hours, lack of funds and sleepless nights that it took to get through school. Some may say "It's just a piece of paper" but most of us with a degree know that it's an open door for many opportunities that others just don't have...and a chance to do what you truly love. Your level of education becomes a reflection of how you see the world.
I remember when I was teaching and I was thinking of going back to school for another four years of college to become a chiropractor.
I talked to my father about how difficult the classes would be and the time and money it would take to start anew. His answer, "If it was easy, everyone would do it!" And so I moved forward into another direction in life. Now, I go into work each day and make an impact on a small little corner of the world as I watch people get well every day, just by the use of my hands. It still amazes me.
So to all of you graduates out there, pat yourself on the back for a job well done, be patient with yourself as you navigate what's ahead ... then go out and change the world. We're proud of you!
