Chiropractics may aid sciatica sufferers
When the sciatic nerve is
inflamed, the condition is called
sciatica, pronounced si'ad-a'ka.
Sciatica sufferers often have severe
pain along the sciatic nerve path,
usually in the back of the legs and
thighs, sometimes, to the ankle,
foot and toes. There's not only
searing, sharp pain but also
parasthesia-strange nerve
experiences such as pins and
needles, burning, tingling,
prickling, crawling sensations or
tenderness-that may be felt.
Ironically, along with all the pain
and nerve sensations the leg might
feel numb.
To complicate matters, the
location of sciatica pain may vary.
Although it's usually in the back of
the legs and thighs, in some
individuals the pain is in front and
side of the legs. Sometimes the
pain is in the hips.
Like most other conditions,
sciatica has a wide variety of
causes. Unlike most other
conditions, however, this health
problem's relationship to the spinal
column is often very obvious.
The common approach to
sciatica pain includes treating the
symptoms using painkillers,
muscle relaxers and various
orthopedic treatments which may
include traction, physical therapy
and other therapeutic measures.
Relief may be obtained from
injections of painkillers directly

In Loving Memory of Tracy Robinson
On February 12, 1994 my 26year old brother, Tracy, suffered a fatal
accident at work. This month on May 15 he would have been 27.
A TRIBUTE TO MY BROTHER
Dear TVacy,
In a world of confusion and hnartache you were there as a beacon oflight...
You gave me the strength to stand up for my convictions and to walk this path of life with courage ...
Like a ship out at sea, you were y anchor during the times when the surf was rough ...
Always there as a constant reminder that I wasn't alone ...
My little brother who always knew intuitively when things were good or bad for me ...
You were there with a quick joke or a reassuring hug .. .
Now 1 find myself without you ...
The only thing that keeps me going is my faith that you were finished her and needed elsewhere ...
So even though we may not be together here on Earth, 1 take comfort in knowing that you are with me
in spirit and I will hold you forever close in my heart.
I Love You TVacy,
Forever - Sis

Northrop makes first payment on pledge
Northrop Corporation recently made the first payment on their pledge to help fund
construction of the Perry Community/Recreation Center at Rozar Park. The pledge was
for $25,000, to be paid In two Installments - one In 1994 and the other In 1995. The
check for $12,500 was presented to Mayor Jim Worrall and City Manager Marlon Hay by
Art Grady and Tom Whitten.
leg pain is a close one.
In one controlled study four
different approaches (spinal care,
traction, two types of injections)
were used to deal with low back
pain and sciatica sufferers. The
group that had spinal care
experienced the greatest degrees of
recovery. A follow-up two years
later showed that 50.4 percent had
about the local chapter's past year
including work, accomplishments,
goals, and overwhelming support
for each other.
The chapter's meeting today,
Wednesday, May 11, will be the
last before the summer break.
Meetings will resume on
September 14, just in time for
Constitution Week and Citizenship
Day.
Words cannot express the sincere
gratitude the Family of Robert “Pop”
Horton felt for the flowers, food and
compassion shown us during the
time of his death.
Thank you all,
The Family of Robert Horton
excellent results with no painful
relapses, 34.4 percent had relapses
but then responded favorably after
further Chiropractic care. 15.2
percent showed no significant
improvement.
Rather than a disease-oriented
approach that asks: "How can we
get rid of your problem?", the
doctor of Chiropractic asks: "How
can we make your body stronger so
it may heal itself?" To many
millions of sufferers it's unique
approach to wellness has been a
blessing.
