As a person with a few autoimmune diseases and chronic issues, I was very sceptical about how a chiropractor would help me, here is a quick run down.
I have had Lupus for 20+ years, coeliac disease for around 10 years. With these I suffer really badly from fatigue and vitamin issues.
I have also for the past 15+ years suffered with chronic migraines. These have been really difficult to bare with over the years. I wake up every day with a headache, these may turn into a full migraine. There are days I cannot get out of bed due to the pain, vomiting or the shear tiredness after a bad episode.
I have tried various treatments some that have cost me a fortune with no real relief. These include acupuncture, various medications (amitriptyline and the alike) Botox which is a series of 31-32 injections around my head and into my neck, injections I inject at home. I then found out I have a cyst in my back.
I hit my lowest point at the end of 2025, not being able to work, care for children properly or do housework, which meant my husband was taking on more than I personally would like.
Since starting treatment with Michalis I feel that I have been listened to, taken seriously and not judged.
I have found that I have had several days of no headache (this was a huge moment!) I still have set backs but feel there is light at the end of the tunnel. This is something I haven't felt in a very long time.
All I can say is why did I not do this sooner and why does the NHS not refer people it would save so much, in time and money let alone pain for those suffering.
I am so incredibly grateful Michalis at TopChiro and will continue to work with them, hopeful to getting me back to an old sort of normal.
Maybe working together they can learn from me and my conditions too.
