Occupation: Registered Holistic Nutritionist
Heath Issue: Chronic neck and back pain, due to weak subscapular muscles caused by my career as a hair stylist. I lost the curvature in my spinal cord I the neck area and my trapezius muscles overcompensated for the weakness causing a series of unbalanced strength issues in my upper back muscles .
Symptoms: I was in a lot of pain and if I had to bend down to pick something up without thinking about how I was to get back up, I would throw my back into a spasm and it would be so intense it would affect my breathing. I literally had to end my career as a hairstylist.
Health recommendation: Ensuring proper nutrition and healthy digestive system for the body to absorb the nutrients it needs to heal itself. Also, a functional training exercise program focusing more on strengthening the supporting muscles. I see a chiropractor and massage therapist on a regular basis.
Results: I am now living pain-free and I can perform exercises I was not able to do before. I feel more energy and vitality now at age 42 than I did at the age of 30.
