Schedule a vacation day away from work or program your DVR to record "The Doctors" this Monday, April 23 (click here for local listings). The April 23 episode features another television appearance by Dr. Fabrizio Mancini, who appeared on the March 14 episode of "Dr. Phil."
The April 23 episode, dedicated to the theme of "That pain may not be what you think," is significant not only because of Dr. Mancini's appearance, but also because the overall theme reinforces the chiropractic tenet that what goes on in one part of the body can affect other parts of the body, and that pain in one area may be caused by a problem somewhere else.
The audience first watches a video that outlines how a female patient went to see Dr. Mancini, complaining of low back pain as her primary symptom. Dr. Mancini examined her, finding problems in her pelvis, low back, upper back and neck. In addition, he noted that the patient was "putting 50 percent more weight on one foot" compared to the other. Dr. Mancini then was shown adjusting the patient.
As the video concluded, Dr. Mancini and the patient came out on stage to talk to the show's lead host, Travis Stork, MD. The patient herself may provide the most impact; when Dr. Stork asked her how she was doing, her enthusiastic response was: "I have never felt so good ... I feel like I am a new person and I can't wait to see what will happen going forward."
So tune in to "The Doctors" on April 23; if you're already a chiropractic patient, talk to your DC about the show at your next visit; if you're not a patient, why not schedule an appointment with your local chiropractor today?
