Bite therapy patient discusses how holistic dental treatment eliminated pain
Sometimes, misalignment in the mouth and jaw can cause mysterious and troubling pain. Patty experienced pain for years. She went to multiple doctors in an attempt to find relief. Her neurologist was even talking surgery for a bone spur in her neck. Once she saw Dr. Palmer and found out she had misalignment issues, he began bite therapy. Within just a few weeks, her pain is almost completely eliminated.

- Hi! This is Patty and she has been in our bite therapy program. Patty, just tell us a little bit about why you started the program.
- Well, I have been in pain for over a year and have gone to several different doctors, several therapies and nothing seemed to help. My neurologist was talking about surgery for a bone spur that I have in my neck because that's what they believed was the source of the pain. But I didn't want to have surgery and so I came to Dr. Palmer and he did some x-rays. He said I had a really bad bite and that it needed to be worked on and corrected and that's what we've been doing in the last two weeks. I basically haven't had any pain and had nights with no pain, so it's really subsided. Amazing! After this length of time, I'm so thankful for them and for what they've done for me and they are really good. They work really hard. I do appreciate them.
- So, we’re about halfway through your program and you're starting to see some great results with that?
- Oh yes, I am just shocked that it has worked out this fast and pain has subsided so much in such a short length of time.
- Great! That is great to hear. We’re glad you are feeling a lot better and we will continue the therapy process with you and hope that we will get results that will last the rest of your life.
- Thank you.
