Dr. Wayne Coghlan: Chiropractor  Are you looking for a Re-Evolutionary experience?     Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)   WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC? Chiropractic, at least how I do it, is a systematic approach to assessing and correcting the structural integrity of the body. Basically, I use hands on methods to restore the alignment and movement of your joints and muscles. WHERE IS MY OFFICE?

Fibromyalgia and Repressed Anger

Fibromyalgia, Repressed Anger, Chiropractic Therapy   It has been my experience that the majority of patients I encounter with a diagnosis of fibromyalgia have chronic unresolved emotional issues. Usually, it is some form of unresolved anger or grief, and usually some form of persistent anxiety or apprehension.   Now that is a bold and sweeping statement, and I appreciate that a disease as complex as fibromyalgia will have many different components to it. This is definitely not a one-size-fits-all statement. Yet the pattern persists. And I’ve had some people become quite annoyed because I asked if they considered if unresolved issues were somehow a factor in their illness.   I expect their unwillingness to explore the question was defensive of the implication that their fibromyalgia was somehow “in their heads.” To which I sympathize. People with fibromyalgia yearn for legitimization that they do indeed have a “real” disease.   Yet an inability to even explore the question
