Muntathar Altaii, from America, was suffering problems with his back for three months, and was left unable to stand up straight for long periods of time. He also had a numb sensation in his right leg.
Chiropractors in the United States wouldn’t help him, so he took matters into his own hands and contacted Dr. Ian at Gonsted Chiropractic.
Dr. Ian agreed to take him on, and he made the long journey to Australia.
Mun walked with an extreme stoop, and when Dr. Ian examined him using a very light touch, the pain on his face was obvious.
Dr. Ian also tested his right leg – with Mun unable to feel when the doctor ran a stick up and down it.
He was diagnosed with extreme kyphosis, which although serious, was not incurable.
In fact, the doctor only had to perform three back corrections to get Mun standing up and walking properly.
After the first correction, Mun went home and on returning to the practice the next day, revealed he had slept properly for he first time in months.
The doctor felt he still had pressure in his neck, so he performed another correction.
Almost immediately, Mun could lift his head up higher, and was smiling for the first time.
By day four, Mun is shown walking around on his own, much to the amazement of his dad, who travelled with him.
Explaining his progress, Dr. Ian said: “You’ll notice he is walking ‘heel toe heel toe’ and taking long strides.”
Repeating the leg test, Dr. Ian asked Mun to say “now” whenever he felt the stick on his right leg – and he feels it every time.
On day seven, Dr Mun did one more spine correction, and Mun was standing noticeably taller.
Returning to the practice on day ten, Dr. Ian supports Mun while he stands tall and walks completely upright for the first time in months.
His father is so moved he breaks down in tears. Mun and his father returned home, and Mun was shown graduating from high school, something he thought he wouldn’t be able to do.
Mun’s incredible story comes as a British man beat cancer thanks to this wonder drug.
