I now have a life worth living.

My name is Tracee Arrowood. My story may not seem like an exciting tale that one would choose to read. However, it was one I was unable to put down. It was like being caught in a rotating door, but there were no openings where there should have been. When it seemed like everyone else was finding their opening, I couldn't. That's what it felt like in my story. Then I met Dr. Lawson, who was able to finally show me that though I may not see my opening, there would be one soon enough. Sure enough, there was an exit for me too.

I'm not exactly sure where my story begins. Like many others, I have been through many trying times, both mental and physical. Of course, like most, I never really dealt with either. That was until I truly couldn't put it off any longer.

I had been dealing with back pain that kept getting worse for almost a year. Which felt like a lot longer. I was unable to sleep, drive, and almost unable to walk. I was taking lots of medication, which of course didn't help. I am only 27 years old and I was relying on my mother to do everything I should have been doing. I was crying all the time and it was taking a toll on my husband and my 6-year-old son. I had given up hope. I finally decided to see a chiropractor after months of everyone telling me to. I was scared and had no insurance. I was sure it would cost too much. I was wrong.

When I first met Dr. Lawson, he put me at ease and told me I would get better. After my x-rays, I knew he was right. That was when my life changed. I finally saw a light at the end of my very long and dark tunnel. I was sure there was going to be a good ending to my story after all, and that I might be able to exit that rotating door of doom. It didn't happen over night, and I did have a major set back after a fall. However, I now realize that although I have exited my rotating door, there isn't an ending to my story after all. Now it is a story I enjoy reading, and don't want to put down. It is exciting and entertaining and I get to do things I never dreamed of.

I am hiking, working out, and keeping up with my son. And some day I'm going to do a marathon. I now have a story and a life worth living. I truly believe without The Healing Touch and Dr. Lawson, I wouldn't be here today. THANKS DR. LAWSON!!!
