Dr. Scott’s Story

 

  • My journey to Chiropractic has been an unconventional one. There’s a saying we have in Chiropractic that is a bit cliché, but when I say it, I know its true. "I didn’t choose chiropractic, it chose me.”


  • In 2014, as an undergrad I was on my way to study in China. In preparation to travel abroad, I had a series of vaccinations which lead to an injury. Shortly after the injury, I experienced stabbing feet pain, burning pain all over my body and eventually wound up bound to a wheelchair for over 7 months. While being passed from one doctor to the next, my health was declining rapidly and the pain intensity increased. Quickly, I found myself powerless over what was going on with my own body. I ended up on an enormous amount of pain killers and a myriad of medications.


  • A family friend recommended a chiropractor. Pain and suffering is an invitation for change. When people get injured as severely as I was, it is not a one and done treatment back to health. It’s a journey back with some big wins and many little wins along the way.


  • Over 30 days, from out of the wheelchair I exercised daily in the hot tub, kicking my legs in water to build strength. I detoxed myself off all my pain medications. Dr. Jen adjusted me every single morning for 30 days and put me on a regiment of supplements to help support my body.


  • After not being able to walk for over 7 months, on the TWENTY FIRST DAY of being adjusted I got up out of my wheelchair and walked into her office. That was my first big win and an amazing Chiropractic moment.


  • Still in pain, I sought answers with lab testing and wondering why the injury had occurred.  The tests showed that the vaccines had triggered an autoimmune condition called Mastocytosis. 


  • My academic scholarships were lost, I had no purpose in life. I found myself looking at living with a debilitating disease for the rest of my life. I quit my job, ended my lease and prepared to live with my family the rest of my life. However, Dr. Jen saw something in me. She encouraged me to go to chiropractic school. I would tell her, “How am I supposed to be a Chiropractor? I can’t even stand for longer then 10 minutes?” She repeatedly told me that my body had the ability to heal itself and never once gave up on pushing me to keep fighting. After much mental anguish one day I found my sense of hope and found desire to keep fighting. I flew to Life Chiropractic College West near San Francisco for a Life Champions Week. My feet hurt so bad I never made it to the classrooms or toured campus. I made it to the registrar office and within an hour I had a letter of acceptance for Summer 2017.


  • I was now in chiropractic school struggling with my memory, my mobility and still talking with over 15 doctors/practitioners that couldn’t help, all without my family’s support.  Then I found a home in the office of Dr. Liz Dobbins in Oakland, a Network Spinal practitioner. I didn’t understand the technique at the time, it was so different. Dr. Liz didn’t hesitate and I began the next phase of my healing journey. I related it to drowning, Dr. Jen jumped in grabbed me and pulled me ashore and Dr. Liz hit me with the defibrillator and brought me back to life.


  • Within the first 6 weeks my body went through some intense restructuring and healing I had ever experienced.  I went from struggling to walk to class to running 6 miles on the treadmill. That was my next big win and Chiropractic moment. I was on my way to getting my life back. I had regained faith in my body again.  I added different forms to my care including parasite and heavy metal flushes, Bio Geometric Integration and acupuncture. All combined with chiropractic were instrumental in my recovery, and I pushed until my pain completely resolved.


  • I am now a Doctor of Chiropractic. Through my own healing journey, I became a practitioner in one of the greatest professions on the planet. I had many good people come to my aid and help support me along the way. I hope now I can pay forward some of that love and care that I got when I needed it the most and if my story.  If my experience can help save one person from going through what I went through it will have all been worth it.

   

My story is one of hope, and I’m grateful to be here to help you on your wellness journey.
