Dr. Douglas Sims, Jr.
In Dr. Sims’ teenage years, he struggled with uncontrollable high blood pressure that had no known origin. A walking time bomb for a stroke, he had no idea until his medical doctor informed him at an annual physical exam. The doctor’s answer was to place Dr. Sims on medication. Shortly after, an automobile accident caused Dr. Sims to see a chiropractor.
Chiropractic improved his neck and backaches. Amazingly, his blood pressure readings lowered, too! It took 17 adjustments before Dr. Sims’ blood pressure was the lowest it had been in years. He weaned himself off the medication and decided to join the natural healing profession.
