Steven Shears: A Testimonial

“My name is Steven Shears and I met Billy DeMoss at South Coast Plaza while working at a clothing store. He quickly invited me to come into his office for an evaluation. I spoke to him about my health when we met later that week. I was impressed by his genuine concern about my wellbeing and health. I didn’t know much about chiropractic before I went in for my evaluation, I figured it was mostly for sports injuries, car accident victims, or those with chronic back pain. However, after my evaluation I quickly realized that chiropractic is for everyone.
Many of the things Dr. DeMoss taught me when we initially met intrigued me. I wanted some of my chronic health problems to go away and I wanted to be healthier overall. I was regularly experiencing terrible headaches, awful allergies, and would commonly succumb to the seasonal flu or cold. I had poor posture and would get back pain very often.
I am happy to report that all of those symptoms are gone. Whether you believe you’re healthy or unhealthy, we all have a lot to learn about our health. Billy can show you how to live a healthier lifestyle.
Getting routine adjustments instead of waiting for an injury to occur is the best solution.
Be proactive, not reactive. Utilize the energy and knowledge within DeMoss Chiropractic to become a stronger and healthier person. Even if I don’t see Billy as often as I’d like to, I can always hear him in the back of my head saying, “Don’t eat that!? ?Go get some fresh air and take a walk!? ?Do your neck exercises!”
DeMoss Chiropractic has motivated me to be healthier and spread the message of what chiropractic care can do. Spread the great energy!”

Chiropractic results are best when chiropractic is utilized consistently. Consistency is key! For this reason, many experts compare chiropractic care to brushing your teeth. The following points come from a a study (one of many) proving the efficacy and value of chiropractic wellness care!
8 Major Points of the Study:
1. In animal studies, fixation of facet joints for 4-8 weeks causes degenerative changes and osteophyte formation of the articular surfaces with facet articular surface degeneration beginning at less than 1 week.
2. Facet joint fixation resulted in synovial fibrotic adhesions that ?progressed to mild adhesions in 4 weeks, moderate adhesions in 8 weeks, and severe adhesions after 12 weeks.
3. In humans, it can be hypothesized that there is a period where the adhesions are forming WITHOUT CLINICAL SYMPTOMS. This would support the common weekly or monthly spinal adjustment despite the presence of symptoms.
4. Four weeks of joint immobilization has been found to cause a time dependent loss of neurons that become progressively worse thereafter.
5. Joint immobilization has also been shown to cause muscle weakness, atrophy, and fatty infiltration and deposition into the muscle.
6. It is demonstrated that the spinal adjustment gaps the facet joints which may break up adhesions, preventing the fibrotic or degenerative process to continue.
7. There may be a possibility of reversal of the neuronal degeneration and muscular weakness through adjustments and remobilization of the joint.
8. Due to the neurological and bio-mechanical consequences of manipulative therapy, it is both logical and scientifically accurate that monthly spinal adjustive care prevents the progression of adhesion formation, joint degeneration, neuronal changes, and changes in muscular strength and recruitment.
Research shows that those who utilized chiropractic care before or after pain or symptoms were present, achieved the greatest benefit! Regular Chiropractic check ups and adjustments (when necessary) improves function, prevents future problems, and saves money by addressing the cause.
