Logan Gerwing ruined my life! The day I stepped in into Peak Health &Performance Logan Gerwing's…read moreoffice will always be marked as a 'black' day in my family's calendar.
The lacrosse ball exercise he gave me for my back that I followed to a tee, caused me devastating harm and injuries. Since that day, 15 months ago, my back is in excruciating pain and can't heal. Also, after that exercise, I have difficulty standing and sitting. There is no more such a thing as a good night sleep in my vocabulary because laying down hurts - hurts a lot. I feel like I am half-human now.
I have been seeing many Alberta Health practitioners since and no one can understand what is happening and how to help me recover. The one message that I received from Alberta Health rehabilitation professionals is clear - first of all, I should've never been given such an exercise considering my condition and secondly, if given such an exercise, it should be started in standing by the wall position and just for some 20 seconds. Pain clinic's Kinesiologist couldn't believe what happened. He said that everything over a minute of lacrosse ball is for professional athletes, who compete, in the best shape of heir lives and with years of practice. Another spine doctor, with 44 years of experience, said that considering my condition, this would be 'the worst idea he can imagine to be suggested.'
When I came back to Peak Health & Performance to address this with Logan Gerwing, while I was waiting in a hallway, he passed me multiple times as I don't exist and am a piece of furniture. It looked that he knew, from my message left for him with a front desk, that he caused me harm and tried to completely ignore my presence while I was waiting, until I just had no choice as to step in front of him to make my appearance as obvious as it couldn't as it can be. Team leader, Evan Durnin was present that day also, and didn't make any effort to step in. I was shocked! During my long career in management, as soon as there was a customer service concern, I would always jump in to help assist my staff member and make sure that I have the issue resolved.
The worst part is that I already was legs-down paralyzed once in my lifetime and fought back to a complete recovery. Since then, I valued my health so much that I had no bad habits and no contact sports, and my family and my community is shocked that my life was ruined by medical professional!
My father requires a heart surgery and my mother-in-law needs treatment for her not to lose her legs. I was up for a promotion after working hard for last 16 years and, now instead of having a chance to save my relatives lives, being able to support their treatments, I am off-work, at my worst health and financial situation ever, after stepping into Logan Gerwing's office.
It looks that the only help I can get now is from a place like a Mayo clinic that I can't afford and will have to launch a GodFundMe campaign to support my trip. In this case I will have to let millions of my social media viewers aware of my situation and this experience.
My family and community is shocked from seeing how harmful chiropractic can be and how one visit can ruin lives of the whole family! I am contacting World Federation of Chiropractic Secretariat to have this situation addressed and hopefully they can guide me to a recovery (if its possible).
