'Cold showers got me off all my pain meds!"

With pelvic pain so severe that she could barely move, Jackie Norman felt stuck and totally out of options...until a seconds-long practice changed everything

- Katie Smith

This is too much...I feel like I'm being pulled limb from limb! Jackie Norman cried. For years, she had suffered with diffuse muscle pain that doctors had diagnosed as fibromyalgia, a chronic disorder that causes body pain and tenderness. But when she began experiencing an excruciating burning pain in her pelvis too, things took a terrible turn. Bedridden and feeling like a burden to her husband, Jackie felt so depressed that she began to think of ending her life.

Frustratingly, doctors said there was nothing more to do than increase her pain medication.

Is there really nothing else that can help me? Jackie despaired.
