Fibromyalgia Patient Success Stories
I have been a fibromyalgia patient of [Dr. Heilman's] for almost a month. I have been having problems with fibromyalgia for the past six years, going from doctor to doctor. No one could help me with my problem. I tried a range of traditional and alternative treatments, including prescription drugs, bee stings, hemotherapy, acupuncture and faith healers. Repeated attempts either didn’t work, didn’t provide lasting results or left me with unbearable side effects. I believe the combination of [Dr. Heilman's] treatment using dietary changes and chiropractic techniques is providing the relief I have sought and was giving up hope I could find. I am not taking any pharmaceutical pain medications. I am finally able enjoy restorative sleep instead of spending the nights awake and in pain. I appreciate what [Dr. Heilman] has done for me.

[My symptoms were] pain basically, plus fatigue and depression. The pain was so different from normal workday pain. Chronic fatigue was the first; I was diagnosed with chronic fatigue. Little by little, I could not do anything. I could walk a block to work. I could walk a block to the grocery store. I could walk a half a block without sitting down and resting. Then I started having to sit down twice. [I] would have to sit down two or three times when trying to make my bed or any simple house chore. It would take me all day to clean my house. It would take me hours just to vacuum my floor because I would have to sit and rest and try to control the pain a little. [ more ]

My 9-year-old son was an absolute coach potato for a couple of years. I had been going to Dr. Heilman for myself and I had thought that perhaps an adjustment or treatment by Dr Heilman may improve my son's level of activity. When I took my son to Dr Heilman, he discovered that he had candida and it was the contributing factor to fibromyalgia. Dr. Heilman said that he had never seen a 9 year-old child with fibromyalgia, however, that was his diagnosis. Dr. Heilman cleared the candida, and gave my son spinal adjustments. In a very short time, he began to feel better and become more active. It never occurred to me that his inactivity was because he did not feel good; I just thought that he was lazy. My son is now the best basketball player on his junior high school team. He has become an athlete and is doing extremely well. His attitude has improved immensely from a couch potato to an athlete by overcoming fibromyalgia.

Suffering with diagnosed fibromyalgia, I was in pain and felt helpless. The anti-depressants only helped marginally. I saw an ad in the paper for Dr. Heilman’s program. Although I was skeptical, I thought anything was worth a try to rid myself of the stiff body and so much pain. What results!!! Within a few weeks, my pain was mostly gone. I thought this is truly a new healthy start, for the rest of my life. When I found out Dr. Heilman treated allergies, I again was skeptical. Yet I have experienced the relief of no more symptoms of allergies, no runny noses, or no itchy eyes. I thank Dr. Heilman just about every time I see him for improving my quality of life. You don’t forget the pain. I’m just so happy it is gone. I also refer family and friends as they need relief. — Kay Gilbert
