An unexpected but much welcomed healing

Let me begin by saying that I believe in giving credit where credit is due. On December 30th I broke my pinky toe on the footboard of my bed as I dashed into my kitchen. (My tea pot was boiling over) The pain was immediate and severe. I don't mind telling you I actually cried. I could barely put any weight or pressure on my foot as I walked. Several people (including Dr. Google) said there's really nothing you can do for a broken toe, it takes 6 weeks to recover, etc... Dr. Easterling, who is a chiropractor in Hartsville SC, had a different and unusual method of treatment. He prescribed that I wrap the toe and sit in his infrared sauna for a series of treatments. This, he said, would increase my blood flow and speed up the recovery process. Here are my personal results: # 1) After 1-30 minute treatment the swelling had decreased some, I had a pronounced limp and the discoloration was barely visible the second day. #2) After 2 more treatments the swelling had completely subsided, discoloration gone, I still had a somewhat less pronounced limp, had the toe wrapped, and wore a special shoe, but the pain was noticeably less. #3) less than two weeks later; the pain is minimal, I am wearing a regular shoe on that foot most of the day and my limp is barely noticeable. I am very thankful to Dr. Easterling for his advise and help. If you have pain and inflammation I strongly suggested giving the infrared sauna a try. The good news is that it seems to be helpful for weight loss as well.
