For over 30 years I have lived with the chronic inflammatory disease Ankylosing Spondylitis. Almost 20 of those years I lived with severe chronic pain in my entire spine, ribs, hips, and sternum. During this time there were days I could barely walk because the pain was so severe.  

 

For 7 years I was on many pharmaceutical drugs and became dependent on painkillers.  The danger of doing this, as was the case for me, is that symptoms are somewhat reduced, but the damage in the body is continuing. This is part of the reason it took me so long to make progress. I kept covering up the real problem and suppressing symptoms with drugs. I realized I was never going to get better or make progress unless I addressed the real issue in my body.  

 

When I started to address the root causes of my inflammation my body started to strengthen internally and my symptoms of chronic pain were drastically reduced.  Today, I have been free of prescription medications for over 15 years, and I have less pain and better overall health than at any other point in my life. As a result, I'm able to enjoy playing golf again.

 

Because of this transformation in my life I have become extremely passionate about helping other individuals improve their quality of life without the use of drugs and the risk of harsh side effects.
