The ultimate guide for starting A FREELANCE WRITING (AND MAKE MONEY!)
Do you love writing? Interested to learn how to become a freelance writer? and, you finally decided to become a freelance writer
but you have not idea about how to get started It's a great way to earn extra cash and actually make a living from it
Learning how to become a freelance writer is work and it's going to require time, effort, and an investment in yourself to get started. But I can assure you, this career path will give you the flexibility and freedom you are longing for!
case study #1 Protima Tiwary
29-year-old Protima Tiwary started freelancing in early 2013 right after she'd just quit her full-time job at an agency and was genuinely looking for a break. Five years hence, she has completely immersed herself into the freelance life – that is both erratic and exciting. "I enjoy writing about food (especially desserts!), travel and fitness. 60% of my projects fall under this category in the form of social media branding projects, while the rest is a mixture of business blogging, social media and entrepreneurship essays, website projects for various genres and sometimes even blogs on education," she says.
As someone who was always interested in working with new brands and trying new things, this life of a digital nomad has been convenient for her as she gets to travel, work, and workout all at her own convenience and leisure from any part of the world. When asked about the importance of financial health as a freelance writer she says, "In the beginning of my career I had a part-time consultancy job for a couple of years because I needed that fixed amount in my bank every month, especially when I started investing."
Like most freelance writers out there, Protima is a big fan of her flexible work hours but still struggles with finding clients who will pay well. "Important advice: Sign a contract to ensure proper payments. Build your network – both online and offline. Attend relevant events and, talk about your work – it isn't showing off", she signs off.
Think about it:
You'll be able to work from the comfort of your home and set your own schedule! Or you'll be able to work from anywhere in the world! This is perfect for moms, students, or anyone that doesn't want to be confined by the time restraints of a 9-5 job.
If you love to travel like me, you can freelance from anywhere since all you need is your computer and an internet connection.
CASE STUDY#2 Sanket Jain
Currently based out of Ichalkaranji (a small town in Kolhapur district of Maharashtra), 22-year-old Sanket Jain began his tryst with freelancing right after college. You can start off as a freelancer and still do amazing stories",.
, he says, it's important for one to be sure of the niche they want to cover. "Find what you love covering and then spend a lot of time on the field, talking to people, and eventually you will start becoming an expert in a particular area," he advises.
As someone who works remotely, a huge part of Sanket's work involves understanding what a publication is looking for and then pitching to the editor effectively. "As a freelancer, you have to learn to deal with rejections. Get ready for it. Sometimes it's just that the editor doesn't understand what you are trying to cover. Never lose heart when your ideas are rejected," he signs off.
The Difference Between Freelance and Employee
Before I move on, I just wanted to be transparent and point out that freelance writers are not employees – which is the reason you get so much flexibility.
As a freelancer, you'll basically have your own business and you can make as little or as much as you want. However, since you don't have an employer, you'll be responsible for paying your own taxes and covering benefits like health insurance, paid time off, and your retirement plan.
It's a tradeoff but it's well worth it if you would like more freedom. If you're able to become a 6-figure writer or earn enough to meet all your financial goals, you probably won't mind paying taxes and covering your own expenses and benefits.
Okay so still with me?
How to become a freelance writer:
7 easy steps to earn money!
If you're ready to learn how to become a freelance writer, here's a proven step-by-step process to get you started and make money quickly.
1. Decide what type of writer you want to be
This is such an important first step. There are different types of writers, all of which can be classified under the general freelance writer umbrella.
The most common types of freelance writing are:
- Article/feature writing: this is probably the most common type of writing that comes to mind when people think about freelancing. You'll be writing for magazines and newspapers either online or for the printed version.
- Blogging: you can make money by either having your own blog or by writing blog posts for other bloggers.
- Copywriting: as a freelance copywriter, you'll write creative copy to help businesses establish and promote their brand, engage clients, and market products and services.
- Social Media Content: with social media becoming an important aspect of everyone's life, as a social media content writer you'll help brands planning, writing and scheduling social media posts across a variety of platforms.
- Technical writing: the idea of technical writing is to take an overly complicated idea in a specific field and present it in an easy to understand manner to the general public. You're going to need an existing in-depth knowledge of the industry you want to work in if you want to be successful in this type of writing.
Think about which projects sound most interesting to you along with what you think you'd be good at. For example, you may not find it interesting to write technical instructions, but you may enjoy writing a feature on a local business or discussing your top parenting tips on a mom blog.
In that case, you'd probably prefer to write for blogs, small businesses, or growing websites. The choice is up to you. If you enjoy technical writing, by all means, go for it!
The process to become a freelance writer is pretty similar no matter what type of writer you want to be.
Learn how to save money, make money, live a healthy life, travel in luxury without spending a fortune & live the life of your dreams!
case study #3 Chandni Doulatramani
Armed with a prestigious degree in Television journalism, Bangalore-based Chandni enthusiastically ventured into the industry in 2011. For the next five years, she jumped from one job to another but nothing held her interest for more than a few months. So she took a year off, moved back to her parents' house in Calcutta, and randomly started writing about topics that intrigued her. "I practically dived into freelance journalism without giving it much thought – I've always been pretty impulsive with all my decisions in life but this is the one I've been most happy about", she says. Chandni has written for publications like National Geographic, The Caravan, VICE, and Mint Lounge.
As someone who started freelancing without any real savings from her previous jobs, Chandni was glad to have the support of her family and boyfriend initially until she was able to get back on her feet. Even now Chandni, like all freelance writers, struggles with the financial realities of this field, "As a precaution, I keep aside a portion of all my earnings no matter how little I get paid."
Even though working independently means one is free to utilize their time the way they want, Chandni admits that there are some traditional ways of being motivated that are missing from her present life. "I struggle a lot with keeping myself motivated and driven on a daily basis. I also miss having an editor/mentor to brainstorm with so I usually pester my journalist friends and boyfriend and thankfully they oblige. Also, writing is a very lonely job and freelancing can make it lonelier – I'm sometimes tempted to go back to a regular job just for the sake of interacting with colleagues even if they're mean and bitchy, but then I remind myself of how much I love what I'm currently doing", she tells us.
2. Narrow down your niche
Now that you know what type of writer you want to be, it's time to narrow down your niche. The best and most profitable freelance writers specialize in a particular niche. That's how clients know how to find them and match them with projects.
Believe it or not, marketing yourself as a general freelance writer may backfire. If you choose to become a Jack or Jill of all trades, people will assume you're not specialized enough and just not what they're looking for.
Plus, choosing a niche allows you to get better at covering a particular subject so you can eventually become an expert on that topic. Brainstorm the topics that seem more interesting to you and that you have some experience in. You can even create sub-niches from your main niche to allow more diversity.
For example, if you enjoy writing about personal finance, you can also cover specific topics like paying off debt, saving for retirement, and credit.
Here are some of the best and most profitable niches for freelance writers to consider:
- Travel
- Personal Finance
- Parenting
- Marketing
- Tech
- Dating and Relationships
- Food
- Fitness
- Business/Freelancing
- Higher Education
- Fashion
My best tips for someone getting started in writing?
Read. A lot. Absorb content on whichever genre interests you and learn writing styles and what will bring value to your potential clients. Read first, write next and never stop learning."
3. Invest in yourself
Be open to investing in yourself and your skills so you can be successful. If you want to improve your writing, you may want to invest in a book I want to recommend the best ever book Copywriting: The Definitive Beginner's Guide: by Adam Richards check hare in Amazon
or some training that will help you improve this skill set. or some training that will help you improve this skill set. Another thing you can learn is SEO which stands for Search Engine Optimization. If you're going to be a blog or article writer, realize that most clients are interested in working with writers who understand how search engines work and can write SEO-friendly articles.
You should also consider investing in the right equipment whether that means upgrading your laptop or setting up a home office so you can work efficiently. Here are some helpful tools that you may want to consider using as a freelance writer.
- Grammarly – to help check grammar and spelling for your work (there are free and paid versions)
- Hemingway App – free grammar editor that can help you score the level of your writing and assess your overall sentence structure
- Wave – can help you send invoices to clients and track your payments. The best part? It's completely free!
- SEO courses–, you need to check out Brian's free resources on copywriting on backlinko
Lean from the experts
Starting to work as a freelance writer can be overwhelming at the beginning. When I started my blog, I knew the only way to fast track my success what to invest some money and learn from the best in the business. And the same goes for every freelance career out there!
Can you make money learning everything for free?
Sure you can! But how long will that take you?
If you want to be sure to make a full-time income as a freelance writer in the next 6 months to a year, I think one of the best things you can do for yourself is to learn from someone who has done it before you.
4. Do I need a blog?
I think it's essential for freelance writers to have their own blog, especially if you are just starting out! Having a blog can be a great way to showcase your work if you're trying to make money writing articles but don't have a ton of experience.
you can blog about whatever you want and use your blog posts as writing samples to help you get clients. Yes, starting a blog costs a little money, but it's another way to invest in yourself and it pays off. Most writers I talk to also have a blog and have used it to help them land qualify freelancing gigs.
Let's also not forget that starting a blog can be a super profitable and flexible way to make money as well.
While it takes time to make money blogging, freelance writing provides a quicker path but you can do both to diversify your income. Freelancers tend to have a fluctuating income so your blog can be the perfect way to even out your earnings and serve as an income backup plan as well.

5. Build your portfolio (yes, write for free)
I talked about all the money you can earn from freelancing earlier so some of you may be wondering – why is she now telling us to write for free?
If you're trying to figure out how to become a freelance writer with no experience, this is it. Writing samples are so important and it's difficult to get hired without them.
Would you hire a dog sitter who has no experience? Probably not. You'd likely want to see reviews and testimonials from past clients to assure you that they know what they're doing when it comes to caring for your dog. It's the same with freelance writing.
Clients want to see that you've written content before and they also use samples from your portfolio to get a feel for your writing.
If you don't have any samples in your portfolio, you may have to write for free a few times so you have some work to showcase. You don't have to do this long-term. Just try to land 3-4 solid guest article spots on other sites and deliver your best work.
This is how you do it:
- Search for websites within your niche that accept articles from guest writers.
- Put together a list of your preferred blogs that have articles about what you would like to become an expert on.
- Reach out to them to see if they would be willing to have you write a trial article that can be published on their blog. The best approach is to send them an email, tell them why you love their website, and give them a proposal for a few guest post articles you could offer them for free.
A few tips when you reach out to write your first articles:
- Keep it short, simple, and to the point.
- Explain in a brief paragraph who you are and why you're an expert in that particular niche.
- Pitch your article with a catchy title and a short description of what it will be about.
From there, you can use those samples to pitch other clients for paid work (we'll talk about pitching soon).
6. Build a network
Don't underestimate the power of a solid network. pay attention to joining a few freelance writer groups on Facebook. This will allow you to connect with other writers, ask questions and get feedback.
Most freelance writers in these groups are friendly and more than willing to help other members out. There is plenty of work for everyone so you probably won't feel a sense of competition and should feel more like you're apart of a community.
Below are some of the best Facebook groups for freelance writers to join at the moment:
- The Write Life Community
- Binders
- 1…2…Freelance: A Community For Creative Freelancers
- No Fluff Freelance Writing Group
- Freelance Writing Jobs
Remember that networking shouldn't be one-sided. If you join a Facebook group or even connect with other writers via email or in person, be sure to give back and contribute just as much as you receive.
Who knows, you may even be able to share leads with your network once you reach your capacity with clients.
It can happen sooner than you think!
Don't Forget About Your Blogging Friends…
Another fun way to network is to leverage your blog to get other guest post opportunities. If you find a blog that you really like and admire, pitch a guest post idea that you think would be valuable to their readers.
Deliver your best work, then afterward mention that you're a freelance writer for hire and would appreciate any leads they send your way.
This my friend, is how you get amazing referrals.
It's important to realize that networking is all about relationships and relationships require nurturing.
Don't expect a ton of favors on the first interaction with someone. Instead, focus on getting to know them and understanding their needs and goals. Build up some rapport and see if you can do anything to help them instead of just flat out asking for a favor all the time.
7. Start pitching: how to get your first freelance writing client
You may actually land your first client by the time you get to this step thanks for networking and building your portfolio via guest posts.
However, it's still crucial that you know how to find clients. One easy way is to look at job boards. Job boards are often filled with freelance writing jobs for clients who are eager to hire. This is what makes it a great place to start your search.
Some of the best freelance writing job boards include:
The main caveat to using job boards is that they can be competitive since anyone can access the leads.
Another way to find clients is by sending a cold pitch. If you find a blog or website that you'd like to write for, find out who the editor is and send them an email.
They may or may not be hiring at the time, but there are a few things you can do to make sure your pitch leads to new client work.
Tips to start pitching:
- See if there are other writers on the site. If you see different authors on the blog it's a good indication that this client hires freelance writers. Some sites even have a team page where they may include bios for their current writers or the head editor.
- Make sure the content is up-to-date. Don't waste time pitching a dead blog or website. Seeing fresh content indicates that this prospective client actually cares about the writing and finds it valuable.
- Follow instructions. If there's a page on the site that highlights a freelance writing opening, be sure to follow the instructions exactly when you send your pitch.
- Connect on social media. A great way to warm up your pitch is to connect with the client on Twitter or LinkedIn to build up some rapport.
- Send article titles and samples. Never send a freelance writing pitch without attaching some writing samples. You can also get creative and send them a few custom article titles that you think would work well for their site. This shows them that you've taken some time to read through existing content and learn more about their audience.
One last tip: don't undervalue yourself
It's unfortunate but most freelance writers actually undervalue their work and don't charge enough money.
I get it. It's tough to ask for more money sometimes not to mention slightly awkward. Still, you have to do it if you want to be paid fairly and earn enough to support yourself.
Remember freelance writing is real work and requires a lot of skill and attention to detail. You should be compensated well for the work you do. Plus, you have to cover your own expenses, pay taxes and health insurance as well as save for your own retirement.
To top it off, you may not get paid to do admin tasks that keep your business running like checking and responding to emails, doing research, editing your own work, and sending invoices.
Factor in that time and those extra costs into your ideal rate. When a client asks you how much you charge, never answer with a general quote. Every client is different in their own way so your prices should vary.
Take into consideration factors like:
- How long it will take you to write, research, and edit (Pro tip: Time yourself when you do free trial work and write guest posts to build your portfolio so you have a good idea of how much time and effort goes into writing).
- Whether you will be given a topic and outline or will need to come up with that yourself.
- Whether you'll be writing under your own name or byline or as a ghostwriter.
NOTE: Most writers charge per-project or per word.
Set an income goal and speak to a tax professional about how much you should save from your freelance writing income so you can pay quarterly taxes. Factor that amounts into your rate.
For example, if you charge $75 per blog post but are at a 25% tax bracket, that means $18.75 of that money should go directly to taxes.
Finally, ask yourself if you feel completely confident in the rate before you send it to a prospect. If you secretly feel like you sold yourself short, don't send it or raise the price.
You will enjoy the work and most likely do a better job when you feel like you're being fairly compensated.
Don't be afraid to pass on some clients if your rate doesn't work out. You want it to be a mutually beneficial partnership for both you and the client so respect the fact that they have a budget too. You don't want them stretching their budget either to afford to pay you because there may not be longevity in that.

Correction Appended
Leonard H. Marks, a communications lawyer who helped Lyndon B. Johnson and his wife acquire the television stations that built their fortune and who later served as director of the United States Information Agency in the Johnson administration, died Friday in Washington. He was 90.
The cause was complications of Parkinson's disease, said Kent Jenkins, a family friend.
Mr. Marks said he became a lawyer because his father, who held minor political posts, told him he could make money and still be a politician. He more than accomplished both goals. By the time President Johnson appointed him director of the U.S.I.A., which officially conveys the American image to the world, Mr. Marks's Washington law firm represented more than 400 broadcasting licensees.
As director of the information agency, he had the task of communicating the United States' views on the Vietnam War, which he ultimately told President Johnson was futile. It was the only time Johnson was ever angry at him, Mr. Marks said in an interview with Bar Report, published by the District of Columbia Bar Association.
Among Mr. Marks's first private clients were Johnson, then a congressman, and his wife, Lady Bird. With an inheritance, Mrs. Johnson had bought a radio station, which was licensed to operate from sunrise to sunset. Mr. Marks got it licensed not only to operate 24 hours a day, but also to use a superior frequency.
It was his idea that the Johnsons apply to the Federal Communications Commission to buy the television station in Austin, the Texas capital. He said that Johnson resisted, but that Mrs. Johnson said yes.
"That was the beginning of the L.B.J. family fortune," Mr. Marks said in the interview.
As charges that he had pulled political strings to get the lucrative and sought-after station dogged Johnson, Mr. Marks repeatedly explained that Mrs. Johnson was simply a shrewd businesswoman.
"She could read a balance sheet the way a truck driver reads a road map," he said.
Leonard Harold Marks was born on March 5, 1916, in Pittsburgh, where his father held elected and appointed political jobs in law enforcement. He went to the University of Pittsburgh, where he was student-body president, majored in political science and graduated at 19. He taught for four years at the university's law school, after graduating from it with honors.
In 1942, he moved to Washington and became assistant to the general counsel of the F.C.C. He oversaw the agency's Foreign Broadcast Intelligence Service, which monitored foreign radio broadcasts.
In 1946, he joined Marcus Cohn to form the law firm Cohn & Marks. In 1948, he married the former Dorothy Ames, a reporter for Variety and other newspapers; she died in 2001.
Mr. Marks is survived by two sons, Stephen Ames Marks, of Arnold, Md., and Robert Evans Marks, of Greenwich, Conn., and five grandchildren.
During the 1950's, Mr. Marks traveled to India, Turkey and elsewhere to lecture on communications under a State Department program. In 1962, at the request of Edward R. Murrow, then director of the information agency, he led a privately financed program to distribute thousands of American books abroad.
He said in an interview with Merle Miller in "Lyndon: An Oral Biography" (1980) that he decided early that Johnson was going to be president and refrained from asking any favors for other clients that might later embarrass him.
But he had no problems promoting Johnson and was treasurer of his 1964 presidential campaign.
During the 1960 campaign, Johnson, then running for vice president, and John F. Kennedy, the presidential candidate, were reported to be at odds and met in New York for a joint television appearance to defuse rumors. Johnson was given two minutes, compared with Kennedy's 20, but, after protesting, he got five. "I've got an eight-minute speech," Johnson protested.
Mr. Marks was in charge of the cue cards. He displayed the speech as written, all eight minutes' worth.
When he was appointed as director of the U.S.I.A., succeeding Carl T. Rowan, some questioned his journalistic inexperience, but the president praised his leadership potential. In an unusual token of respect, Mr. Johnson invited Mr. Marks to National Security Council meetings, at which Mr. Marks argued that military factors should overrule public opinion, according to Robert Dallek in "Flawed Giant: Lyndon Johnson and His Times" (1998).
Among his initiatives at the information agency were hiring skilled local storytellers to spread American views at Vietnamese fish markets and bringing six Egyptians, including Anwar el-Sadat, who was not yet president, to chat with Johnson.
Mr. Marks led many international and national efforts in communications, press freedom, space, foreign policy and humanitarian matters, including serving as president of the International Rescue Committee, which aided Vietnamese boat people in the 1970's.
When President Johnson's body lay in state in the Capitol in 1973, Mr. Marks recalled Mrs. Johnson as saying "that the thing Lyndon hated was to be by himself." He and other close friends gathered to keep overnight watch on the coffin.

What You Need To Know About Dating Over 40.One of the recurring questions I receive from single girls and single women over 37 or 40 or so is how can they get a guy who keeps texting them to segue to a date. Midlife singles who are marriage minded, women in particular, want to devote their time to dating men looking for a life-long love relationship and not a texting buddy. They women email me lengthy stories the guys who have their cell phone number and who start texting with them in the evenings. While the Millennial Generation does text each other quite a lot, and you can communicate a great deal of information via your cell phone texting, you cannot truly connect and exchange a conversation via texting. You miss out on the human element.
In my imagination, a record scratched. Uh, why had we quit doing this? Over the following months, we would have this exchange many more times, sometimes in a playful tone and sometimes not. How do two young, single people who like each other just … fall out of touch? My boyfriend is five years older than me. Our parents and siblings are around the same age, and we remember plenty of the same music videos and short-lived breakfast cereals of the s.
I, on the other hand, was just beginning to navigate my desire to communicate outside of school with new friends and boys I had crushes on. I had only made my first few sweaty, six-digits-and-hang-up forays into the art of calling a crush when AIM came along and mercifully gave me an out. As I grew up, AIM was replaced by textingbut typed-out messages remained my preferred mode of communicating with people I liked and people I dated. Phone calls, for me, are scheduled events between business associates or people who need to have a Serious Conversation of some sort.
For him, they are what instinctively happens when he has a question, when he has a funny story, when he wants to make plans. He sees texting as a slower, more frustrating alternative to the quick, easy phone chat, and I see it as both less confrontational and more private than a call.
And like lots of folks my age, I think of lively and steady-flowing text banter as the hallmark of — hell, maybe even the substance of — a promising new relationship. When he took a whole day to respond to a text, I thought, Welp, this was funand made a point to let his last text message dangle there, suspended in the no-response void, the way mine had.
Later on, a mutual friend of ours would mention to him that I was bummed out by how abruptly things had ended. To the best of our understanding, it seems my boyfriend never meant to text me any less frequently. Just idly texting me made it easy for him to stay detached. So I found out that if he REALLY wanted to make things happen, he actually picked up the telephone and called me, left a message and answered my phone calls.
We had much better and more clear communication in that manner. Texting is good for setting times and dates and maybe short messages. It does not take the place of an in person experience. Hi, I really like your post. I usually give advices to other people, but when it comes to myself, I have so many doubts. I met a guy online and the first 2 days we hit it off with texts. The third day was his birthday, so I sent my regard, and he asked if I wanted to grab some coffee next week.
I sort of gave him a maybe. Then, I waited for many hours later to reply to him that a coffee next week would be nice. I changed the subject right away by asking him how his birthday was going. We chatted for a bit, and I let him off. The next day, I thought he would at least say something, but nothing for the whole day. At the end of the day, I simply told him that either Thursday or friday I would be free for a coffee if he was ok with it.
We made plans for me to fly up to visit for a few days next month for Thanksgiving. Any advice?? He may be fine and just busy moving. Have a conversation. Hi l hve been seeing someone whom l text briefly to arrange our dating time, place and whether it is dinner out or relaxing.
We had dinner followed by having cocktails. It is frustrating I feel like ruined what we had growing I need a chance to see him again should I text him tomorrow. Leave the ball in his court. If this ends the relationship it tells you something about him that you should know. What does it mean after 14 years hes always on his phone and he keeps it licked and hes on porn sites and dsting sites porn sites dont bother me wr use to watch tjem together.
How do I go about this and my own feelings about the scenario? I should mention he has asked to meet up but I said no last-minute because I was hung up with assignments. I feel like its moving too fast. As I said, texting is not dating. Reread the article, ok?
We text everyday and chat every week. We have met once and got on great. The snog at the end of the night was a surprise and amazing, leaving me wanting more and him too by what he said by text later when we both got home. I send more texts, sometimes playful but not sexting. I love word play and use quotes and memes which most of the time get a positive response.
That was over a week ago. I work shifts and need to plan although I do like spontaneity. Should I ask him directly or is that sounding too needy? I am attracted to this guy but I need to know for peace of mind too. How do I approach that one subtly without sounding needy? Advice please…. Hell yes ask him directly, Julie. I been texting with a guy for 2 years, we have had 3 dates in 2 years.
By the 3rd date he shared personal stuff with me. I stopped asking to see him. My bday is tomorrow he suppose to come over. I will not sleep with him until he invest in me and I need to be in a committed relationship before sleeping together.

I told him I invest what he invests. He said ok, he will. I told him action, not words. I do date other men. I will not put my eggs in 1 basket, till he makes an effort. Good to know. We did a few days of DMing. Eventually, it trailed off. I never felt quite right about the guy or all the DMing. Glad to know my instincts were correct. So I met a man online, within the first 2 days of messaging he suggested we meet up in the coming days.
Unfortunately I was going out of town so we needed to schedule the date for 7 days out. He offered his number, I texted him to exchange mine and said I was looking forward to the date next week, he replied that he was too. We text chatted quite a bit several good morning texts messages and Lots of texting in the evening after work. We had our date on the scheduled day and it went well. Lots of good conversation and laughs, flirty comments and physical contact.
It ended with him asking to go out again next week our first date was on a Friday night and a hug goodnight. Then crickets…. Should be a nice night for a game. Is he interested or not? Granted his texting was a bit rough at times and I had to help prod the convo on but this seems like a disinterested reply. Am I totally overthinking this? Hi KM. Yes, you are overthinking and over-expecting. Relax, ok?
Like it or not, there are many unspoken rules of texting. You may not agree with each of them, but when you're getting to know somebody. Texting and dating definitely isn't just for 20 year olds anymore. As The Dating and Relationship Coach for Women over 40, I hear endless. Texting and dating definitely isn't just for 20 year olds anymore. If you are dating after 40, here are 5 things to know to avoid a texting "relationship".
Met this guy on an online dating app. I really dont know what to think of it. Ellie…I have two major tips: 1. Watch your expectations.
You want a man who has a career and a life, right? Ask him! Point taken, that makes complete sense. Thanks for the sound advice! I met a man online, and we started communicating via text. We became Facebook friends. I got a feeling in my gut to text him if he wants to share any big or important things with me, or possibly change plans, to please consider reaching out by phone as I wanted to avoid communication pitfalls.
He agreed, via text. Last date he cancelled. He did pick up the phone… he is putting his dog down. The day before he cancelled, via text, I texted an invite to a baseball game…although his work schedule he gave me showed he was working. He said he would try to get work off. But I am pulling back. I feel stupid I believed his flirts and telling me how much he wants to pursue me and become an item. We are both How did I let this happen?
What a liar. This is exactly why I tell you texting is not dating. If a man is texting you all the time ask him to stop.
Texting and dating over 40
And you hardly know this guy. You never know what came up in his life. Or maybe he is a liar? But three days is not a long time. Are you expecting too much? I had been hooking up with this guy for 2 months. He had taught me how to conquer my fear and gain confidence driving in the freeway. He knows about my life. He is very busy in his work and he usually doesnt reply to all my text though.
I text him every day and he usually reply after his work or the next day. I tried to not text him that often and he would be the first one to text me how was my day. I am getting mix signals because at times i feel he cares for me but sometimes i feel he doesnt. I dont know but it seems he care for me sometimes but he told me in the beginning he is not looking for long term relationship.
I did try to forget him but he started texting me. He just have a female roomate who i already met. At first i was jealous but i start to understand the situation. Last time i mentioned to him im going to paris alone and he asked me with whom? I told him alone and he said i should not be going alone. I am waiting for him to tell me if he wanna go with me but he didnt.
I told him i fall for him a month ago but he told me he is not ready because he just got out of 6 years relationship. Now that i started texting him less often he usually text me first or call me. Is it possible he is changing his mind? So I met this 58 year old man online.
In the meantime he called and sent thoughtful texts everyday. Now fastforward to 2 months into seeing one another one weekends and him calling every single day until 2 weeks ago. I had gotten some no so good news earlier that day and that just piled on top of me not getting to see him. He then said I love my daughter but want to see you too so how about if I call you around 12 on Saturday and maybe we could do something Sunday afternoon. Saturday came, no phone call, no message, nothing and I started sending him one message after the other, nothing.
Once before this I had kind of put myself in a similar situation thinking I had said something wrong and sent him a bunch of messages. Later for it. A week has gone by as well as it has been 2 weeks since we last saw each other. I know I sent to many text messages and he know that I have been hurt a lot and has been very understanding of that.
We definitely started to care about one another and us talking to each other every single day, I had no doubt that we really liked and enjoyed spending time together. I was only being human and said nothing negative in my texts. I am a 51 yr old woman who wears my heart on my sleeve and definitely a work in progress and learned from my mistakes. Is there anything I can do or say to get us back where we were.
Jennifer, I have to be honest: I did not read your entire comment. Your beginning and end are all I need. It starts off great…then he disappears. I met this guy two weeks ago on Tinder. We moved the texting to a coffee date on a Saturday, and set up the next date for the arcade the following Saturday.
In between that week, the texts fell off drastically. The next day after our second date, I waited all day for a follow up text. I sent one around 7, telling him I had a good time.How to Find Love After 40 - Dating After Divorce #AskAdam
He said he had a good time too, and again, said he spent all day trying to think of what to say. Is this an excuse? Nor can you. All I know is that when a Grownup man is into you — you know! For a month we text and call, and lastladt weekend it was going to be our first time meeting up and he even suggested a branch date. The Thursday before he told me that he was nervous about a check up at the doctor s for his heart issue that we talked over the phone for over 20 minutes.
His last text was Friday. And from there on it was no call and no show, however his profile on line shows that he is active and always green, that he is online all the time. What do you thing of this? I had what I thought was the most amazing first date, ever. We belly laughed the whole time, had a TON of stuff in common, great flowing conversation and we were both super attracted to each other. What does that mean exactly? But then this happened…I had just pulled up to my house when he texted me to see if I got home ok.
Dating after 40 isn't real, Relationships do not = texting
So now what does THIS mean?! Is he just a super nice guy, or does it mean he really IS into me? We texted back and forth a couple more times expressing what a nice time we had together before calling it a night, but nothing was ever mentioned about a second date. So please tell me….
You can not figure out a guy in one date or in a few texts. Please stop trying.
Just go on with your life and see what he does next, ok? So weird. Good for you. And I hope you blocked his phone number. Sooooooo very true…. I just went through this…. I had a full week of texting about our lives to get to see if we were in the same page. We met He never text I did. We had dates weekly and lunch dates. When we met I did ask whyhe said he intended to text me later but I had already texted him.
What was happening is I was over analysing and he was trying to second guess me and work me out. He said yes he was very interested. Ido know by texting things can be taken the wrong way and very hard to read a persons personality. I have pulled back from texts and he has started to step up. I read your article and enjoyed it. What if the tables were turned instead of a guy, a gal.
He did tell me she said her phone was broken. Ugh…show him this article. NO difference. Unfortunately, women do the same thing. I also worry about him being scammed. Sometimes they can be very patient about setting someone up. He deserves more. I met a guy online. We message and texted for a few weeks before going on our first date. Everything is great, we text everyday all day. We dated for a few months, he even introduced me to his family at his mom birthday dinner.
Still not even one actual phone call because he says he hates talking on the phone. Recently I noticed his texting was becoming less active. I asked if things were heading to the friend zone. We agreed that having drinks from time to time is good and call it day. Not 2 days later he asked if I wanted to come hang out with him and his family for dinner.
Sends me text throughout the day just as before but maybe a little less. We have not had sex and that is not something he has even attempted because he is a gentlemen. He once every couple days tells me he still likes me but he is so messed up in the head and thinks he is going through some kind of mid life crisis. He is 40 and been married twice already. I like him but I have no problems being friends with him either.
He sends me texts when he wakes up and before he goes to bed. He is giving me all the signs he wants to be with me but completely off and on from day to day. Amber- like I said in the article: texting is not dating. The real stuff — showing up, stepping up, and acting like a Grownup- is what counts. That implies consistency, which translates to you knowing you can count on him.
That translates to you feeling safe. Best to you. It feels so confusing about the right and wrong way. It was much easier in my younger days when you just met and started hanging out together. Hi Amanda. Absolutely text him in between.
Sounds like yours is. Hi Me and this guy texted 3 weeks. I know too long! We finally met for lunch Good conversation. He told me we will do this again soon. I said sounds good. Walk me to the car and we had two awesome kisses. He has never said how pretty you are ornot even no compliments. He did say I was a good kisser!
Thx and I have this crush on him. Go ahead and ask just be prepared for the answer. I dated a guy for just over a month last year. I stuck to my words and vanished from his social media etc gone completely no contact. We met again through Tinder a year later and we had an amazing date right back to us and unfortunately I slept with him.
He messaged every day for 5 days letting me know he got a new job which I suggested. Then nothing for two days then a call to say he was on a long distance haul with work he drives a delivery van he said he was thinking about coming to see me when he got back but it would be too late that night 9.
I should say we both had a rough year he finally departed from the ex and I had a disasterous five months relationship where the guy rushed in and rushed me too fast.
I met a guy over a year ago at a football game and we hit it off.
Immediately started speaking on the phone and asking questions about each other. Found out we lived about an hour away from each other but we tried halfway meet up breakfast or lunches for the first three months.
The communication still was lacking so I just moved on. About six months passed and I reached out to say happy holidays. We reconnected again but I am seeing the same pattern with the communication. We have seen each other probably twice since that text reveal but still no real conversation afterwards. Should I cut my losses again? I was recently traveling with my friend and my son when we stopped by to visit her friend.
He said he liked me and wanted to keep in touch. He sent me a friend request on facebook and he sends me private messages daily. He makes jokes about thumb wrestling for kisses and so on. I have only met him once and there is a 20 year age gap. I called my friend to vent my frustrations and she told him to leave me alone. I am feeling a lot frustrated, with him, with her and the whole situation. I have known her for over 17 years so I felt safe venting to her. Now I find myself feeling a little vulnerable and dare I say, betrayed.
We were planning another trip in a couple of weeks but we never even made it that far.
I tried to let him know in a subtle way that I was not receiving his advances but he chose not to heed my hints. At least take the time to get to know me before you assume I want to cuddle, hug and kiss!
I found this article very interesting. I a voracious txter. I recently met I guy the old fashioned way, some flirting, smiling. I sent him a Facebook message. He replied after a few days. After a few messages back and forwards, he asked if we could talk on the phone instead.
So we did for about 2 hours the time just got away. He wanted to make plans to hang out some time. A specific place and time.
Then because it was late and I had to work early the next day we finished our conversation. He then sent me a couple more random texts, about stuff we had talked about. He was married for a long time and has been separated a year.
But I wonder if this is a rejection. Pat attention to what they say AND what they do. I met a guy via tinder and we started talking for a couple of days before I gave him my number, we text and a week later he came up from his base to see me hes in the Army. The date was lovely and a month later he came back from up north to see me again we even shared a place together and was a gentleman nothing happened.
I would say he probably text first on most occasions but with the distance it is difficult to meet regularly so texting has been our main source of contact. Should I keep going or is the warning signs happening? He dated a girl for half a year before we met but she cheated on him several times, I just not sure how to feel after reading the text article.
I think you know the answer. Maybe this is the exception but you know what this says: texting is not dating or a relationship. At least get on the phone or FaceTime with him. And if he came to see you before he can do it again. Met a guy online about 2months ago and he asked if he could call.
I said yes and we had a nice talk. He seemed nervous that I would not like him and really glad that I wanted to hear from him again. After that it was all text. Saying good morning and good night sweet dreams every night and plenty of text conversations.
Sharing photos. Not the sexy kind. Kept telling me how much he liked me and one day soon we are going to meet face to face. He kept addressing me as friend or my friend which I thought was a little weird.
My girl friends agree: Texting someone you're into is a whole different ball game than texting He spends over 10 minutes crafting a flirty text. The truth behind dating over 40 and finding love in Atlanta. "Texting and online stuff doesn't really appeal to me. I meet people mostly through friends now," he. Over the following months, we would have this exchange many more times, sometimes in a playful tone and sometimes not. How do two young.
I was wondering to myself if he just wants a text buddy then suddenly last week he texts when can we meet. I said when do you like and he said tomorrow or Monday. I said I have Monday off so then. That night I was busy and did not text him.
Next morning I saw his texts about do I like chocolate and what kind of flowers and where to meet and I replied.
What You Should Know About Texting and Dating
He said I thought you did not want to talk to me anymore. I said no just busy with work deadline. I said I would think about where to meet. Went to new years eve party that night and texted and shared photos with him about that.
Next morning was day we were supposed to meet. He said good morning and we text chatted a bit then he said I AM going to visit my mom ttyl and nothing about meeting. So I said do you still want to meet and he said would you mind a raincheck my friend.
I said you have something else to do he said yes my mom, cleaning, food shopping. I said ok. Two more days of good morning and good night then I get a text saying he wants to be honest and respectful. He has been chatting with someone else he has a strong feeling for. Told me how beautiful and smart and good I am and thanks for sharing my thoughts and time.
I actually was not all that into him but still a letdown and felt like he wasted my time by expressing strong interest for months. We are both early 50s never married. Sorry Shannon but dont be mad at him. Was it only ego? Good for you to know. You can learn from all of this experience. Hi AS. You get to make your decisions about your sex life. What do you need and how do you want to behave in order to maintain your self-respect and integrity.
Are you making some assumptions? Decide whether you want to get to know him better. If so, let him know one last time that you prefer to see him in person rather than continue texting. Or…just say no. Hey thanks so much for the level-headed advice! We matched and then both were out of town for the holidays but chatting via text we really clicked.
We talked off and on while we were both away and flirty conversation led to sexting. I know because as a savvy millennial I am adept at vetting online identities…no catfishing here!
Beyond that I think as with any dating scenario reading into cues and impressions can go over board and the digital world is now just as much a part of how our attraction or lack thereof reads out in written form.
Just like a first date irl who ends up not returning a call after you meet, it takes all kinds and recognizing when the feeling is not mutual is always key. That being said I expected something more tactful than ignoring me from a 34 year old man. Self love is riding high today!
Good for you, Amelia. Yes, expect more. Way to go! I met a guy a week ago at a Christmas party. He approached me at the party and we talked and enjoyed ourselves.
He took me home the next day and we traded numbers. After he dropped me off, he texted that he was happy to meet me and enjoyed the time, and would love to get to know me more, and that we should go out sometime soon. I was in agreement and shared the sentiment. A few days later, he texted me asking my plans for NYE, and I said nothing solid this was a Weds, so an acceptable amt of time before the day he mentioned us going out. He said he wanted to see what I was doing, and had no actual specifics in mind yet, but that we should do something, and I agreed!
Is this a reasonable thing to do in general? Is this a common situation? We both just kinda are meh about social media, in other words, not all caught up in it. Well, the time has come and gone. I hope he got in touch and you were able to see him and enjoy yourself.
Hope you had the exception!! Bobbi, I need your thoughts. I recently before the holidays went on two dates with a man, right before the holidays. After our second date last Friday, he called me on the Sunday of Xmas week and we talked for an hour.
He left town a few days later to see his large family over Xmas. I texted him on Xmas eve one week, and he had not contacted me a playful text about him missing snow angels and hoping santa had him on the nice list this year. He responded immediately and we sent texts each. Anyhow, I have not heard from him since Sunday and was i too pushy? And what are appropriate expectations of the holiday time. I am not sure when he is back. There is no set time, Mickey. You have to go on all you know, which is that he stopped being in touch.
It probably has nothing to do with you. Move on and find a man who recognizes your wonderful-ness. We text everyday and video chat at night but when I hinted at him liking me he denied me. Felt so dumb. I feel extremely foolish. Take care of yourself now and learn from the experience. You will expect more next time, right?
Hugs Bp. If I want to talk on the phone I have to go out on the porch after my kids are in bed. Hi CH. While dating and getting to know someone…not so much. Thank you for writing this. I was introduced to a guy by mutual friends about 4 months ago. I liked him instantly and we had great chemistry. I had our friends and him over for a dinner party at my house, and he wrote the most beautiful iMessenger message when he got home afterwards.
I was out of town then for about a month during which time we would regularly iMessenger all night until sunrise. The conversations were witty, intimate, and captivating. When I returned back home, I hosted another dinner party instantly, to see him and our friends and it was great. I feel like an idiot for not realizing this whole time that he was using me, whether he realizes it or not, for his own pleasure, on his terms, with no intention of actually getting to know me. Including my own.
You are eons ahead of where you were before you realized this, DD. You are on your way to dating like a grownup. Hugs, Bp. Uhhhh, what dinner? I guess this is a passive way of asking me out to dinner? No thanks. Any things you can help with. But I really loved him. By the way, I asked him thrice to breakup with him and he said no. Dear Bobbi, I really like your page and the advice you give to others and I would also like to tell you my story. Last year I met someone on a dating app. After few weeks of chatting we decided to go out for a drink.
I would have liked to see him again but didnt really feel it was mutual. A few rather neutral texts followed some days later but I felt confirmed in my feeling and decided to not pursue it further. Neither did he. Now one year! I was surprised and suspicious that I left such an impression and asked how come he came back to me.
He said he started to date someone around the time he met me. But it only lasted one year and now he has more time again. It sounded like a classic rebound but as I kind of liked him and had no expectations I decided to meet him.
We spent a nice, harmless evening and kept on texting the following days. He was, opposed to the year before, talkative and interested and I enjoyed conversation with him.
He was busy, in between two trips, but let me choose the day I want to get together again. So we met. I started to like him but still had no real expectations and took it easy. We spent a really nice evening together. At some point I started talking about dating apps and asked if he is back in the game to get bit of an idea what he wants. I told him that I do not really care so much about dating at the moment or using these apps, which made him a bit upset.
He decided to leave as he had to take a flight next morning. When outside the bar he confronted me and said he had the feeling I didnt want to hang out with him. An impression I certainly didnt give. I told him I wouldnt be here if I didnt want to. Later we kissed and spent a very good rest of the evening. He invited me to his place. It was certainly not part of my plan but we stayed together.
I had the feeling this meant something to him as well and that he wasnt just looking for a rebound. So next day he left for vacation. I thought it would be for a few days. Only much later it turned out it was for 5 weeks.
I tried to keep a bit conversation and the first days it was ok. But he didnt initiate any conversation anymore. And the longer he was gone the less he replied and the longer it took him to reply. He must have felt my interest wherase I sensed he had less interest. I asked him to go out as I expetced him to be back soon.
I kept sending a message per week. As I didnt get anything back from my last text I decided to stop. Two weeks later he texted me, apologizing and asked if I was available some time as he would be back soon. I replied a bit cold that I would get back to him when Im recovered from an injury true story.
Some days later I restarted the conversation and intended to ask him out for the following week. But I had the impression it wasnt as it was before he left. I asked him if he now stays a bit in town or if he has already packed for another trip… And he replied after a while that he would indeed be going again for another 7 week trip in a couple of days. I felt very disappointed, wished him the best and told him in that case we should leave it at that.
He wished me the same and said it was fun.
I understand that when someone is on holidays, he is somewhere else and maybe busy. On the other hand, if you like or are curious about somebody, then this shouldnt prevent you from showing it. I wouldnt have minded waiting another two months if I had received the feeling it is worth it. But I didnt really feel it during his absence and asked myself again what did he actually want from me. He got back to me after one year, got upset when he had the feeling I wouldnt wanna hang out, but got silent and kind of indifferent while he was gone.
I rather felt like he is only available and friendly when he wants something and wanted me at his disposal when convenient and that he only pretended he would care. Should I have tried to meet him during the few days he was here?
Im sorry for this long story but Im really curious what you think of this. Hi Erin. When a grownup man is interested you know it. I agree. Took a while to meet and we went out 4 times. There were some cancellations and changes but when we go out we have a great time.
I met a guy off of a dating website. We hit it off right away. So we exchanged numbers and talk til 3am…we text all day and he calls every night to say good night to me. I finally went out on a date with him after 2 weeks. We had a deep and emotional connection. We had sex that night, but we already had covered the sex talk in one of our long endless conversations.
We were looking for someone to have fun with and have a companion. He works long hours during he week and he said he only has the weekends for free time. Hi Cindy. You signaled it was OK with you when you slept with him after waiting 2 weeks to meet him and not having any conversation about what will happen next in your developing relationship.
I met a guy on okcupid and after 6 months we started texting. We texted from sun up until after 1 am everyday. We lived in the same state but not same city. I moved about a half hour from him finally. We planned to meet twice but he canceelled both times. We had talked on the phone only 4 different timeshe said he loved my voice but later told me he did not like to talk on the phone so we did not.
When I would tell him to call me he would abruptly stopped texting and say goodnight. We texted from to recent Sept We shared everythingor so I thought. I told him personal things and he shared things with me as well. We snapchatted each other every day and we both would screenshot each others pictures. We would text flirt but then he took it a bit further telling me his fantasies about me.
The second time we set up to meet I went and bought a dressshoes, nails etc. Only he never mentioned or asked to meet again. We contimued to text and he texted me Good morning every morning but I felt something was off and always kind of pushed him and I was super scared.
He seemed to text less while he was working and I started lightly accusing him of talking to another girl which infuriated him. He told that he is not an angry person but that I made him mad alot.
So I apologized and shut down even more and got quieter. Last month he ran hot and cold and did not texted less frequently and I caught him in some lies.
Our last text he told me he had just moved my pics out of his phone and I stupidly asked if he was going to delete them? He asked did I want him to? I responded and asked him did he want to…. I was beyond hurt and that was our last text. He quit texting good morning and nothing at all. I was beyond hurt and how can he do this and a million questions… He is over the moon happy in his posts to.
I understand things end but I feel so used and he strung me along and I also do not understand how he can say he cares about me abd always will whether I know it or not? I told him so many private things and shared to much. He knows how hurtful this is because it happened to him with a girl he had talked to on ok cupid before me. My sister tells me I am to naive which I am.
He told me I could trust him and I believed him and did. I thought he was different and would never do this to me. He had to have been talking and seeing this other girl while talking to me right? I am a fool. I am stupid. I am not strong enough to ask him yet and tell him I know but nor do I think I should have to. I am not experienced with guys at all and he told me he had never been with a girl either? I feel like he forgot me already in 3 weeks and he treats me like I never existed.
I was starting to push him a little and ask why noone knew about me except for one of his best friends… He is 27 and lives at home still with his Mom and dad and he never told his mom about me I would ask why and he said his parents are against meeting someone online. My mom is to but I told everyone in my family about him and all my friends. Thanks and sorry. Hi Gabby, I think I answered your question in the article.
It may not be what you want to hear, but just move on, ok? This entire and comments has pit everything into perspective of what I think is happening in my case. I met this guy on the dreadful Tinder which i pay for Eharmony and Match but never find anyone I can connect with on those sites which is frustrating to say the least.
Then 2 weeks later he popped up on my Whatsapp acting coy as he saw my number but didnt recall how we met. He just moved to a new town 2 hours from me because he was expecting a new baby with a women that he is not involved with. He told me about this right out the bat which was overwhelming at first but his honesty and upfront nature kept my attention and the situation with the baby momma to be was bad. She is basically an unfit mom and they are in heading to court bc he wants full custody, but now the mom claims he is not the father so they are also doing a paternity test.
All of this he has shared with me and i have been a listening ear or shall I say texting ear bc we spoke once on the phone and so far have gone out on an amazing all day all night date. But at this point it has been over a month and he still texts instead if calling me, he asked if we could skype, and i agreed but let him know I was busy that day and i would let him know when I was available.
Well the whole skype idea went out the door bc he profusely texts me instead of skyping. But its hard to believe or feel secure with anything he is saying via text without any viable actions of commitment. I like him a lot, and maybe even see him as a man I could truly love and have a happy life with. But im now discouraged and backing off the initiating if texting and he seems to have backed off this week as well. Whenever I text him he quickly responds as if he has been waiting on me to steer this ship.
He has mention several times that Im too beautiful and he cant believe he has someone like me in his life, but i dont feel like im in his life at all really.
I just want to know if I should be patient with him bc he is going through some drama right now, or am i expecting too much too soon from this guy.
We both have careers that keep us busy but im making time to fit him in and I want the same from him. But this article does bring some clarify. I plan to let him know what im looking for between us and move on if I dont see any improvement. Ive been talking to this guy i met on tinder for 3 months now. We have texted each other literally everyday for 3 months straight except maybe not hearing from him for 2 days at one point.
He wanted to meet up about a month ago but I had plans already. Finally I sent him a Snapchat and he responded.

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression
We are pleased to now be offering Non-surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy for both the lumbar and cervical spinal regions as well as the knees using the newest technology on the market . This breakthrough technology is an effective treatment for conditions where straight chiropractic treatment has not been completely effective, including:
Bulging discs
Herniated discs
Degenerative Disc Disease
Pinched Nerves
Shooting pain in the arm
Spinal Stenosis
1. What is Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy?
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy is "a revolutionary new technology used primarily to treat disc injuries in the neck and in the low back. This treatment option is very safe and utilizes FDA cleared equipment to apply distraction forces to spinal structures in a precise and graduated manner. Distraction is offset by cycles of partial relaxation. This technique of spinal decompression therapy that is, unloading due to distraction and positioning, has shown the ability to gently separate the vertebrae from each other, creating a vacuum inside the discs that we are targeting. This "vacuum effect" is also known as negative intra-discal pressure.
The negative pressure may induce the retraction of the herniated or bulging disc into the inside of the disc, and off the nerve root, thecal sac, or both. It happens only microscopically each time, but cumulatively, over four to six weeks, the results are quite dramatic.
The cycles of decompression and partial relaxation, over a series of visits, promote the diffusion of water, oxygen, and nutrient-rich fluids from the outside of the discs to the inside. These nutrients enable the torn and degenerated disc fibers to begin to heal.
For the low back, the patient lies comfortably on his/her back or stomach on the decompression table, with a set of nicely padded straps snug around the waist and another set around the lower chest. For the neck, the patient lies comfortably on his/her back with a pair of soft rubber pads behind the neck. Many patients enjoy the treatment, as it is usually quite comfortable and well tolerated." - www.americanspinal.com
2. Am I a candidate for this type of therapy?
It is important to note that not everyone is a candidate for this type of therapy. Dr. Hill will meet with you for a consultation and exam to determine your particular condition. Proper patient screening is imperative and only the best candidates are accepted for care.
3. How good are the results of this type of therapy?
In the Journal of Orthopedic Technology Review, The article "Surgical Alternatives: Spinal Decompression Therapy written by Thomas A. Gionis, MD, JD, MBA, MHA, FICS, FRCS, and Eric Groteke, DC, CCIC highlighted the results of a clinical study performed to evaluate the effectiveness of non-surgical spinal decompression therapy. Here is an excerpt from that article.
"Results showed that 86% of the 219 patients who completed the therapy reported immediate resolution of symptoms, while 84% remained pain-free 90 days post-treatment. Physical examination findings showed improvement in 92% of the 219 patients, and remained intact in 89% of these patients 90 days after treatment. This study shows that disc disease—the most common cause of back pain, which costs the American health care system more than $50 billion annually—can be cost-effectively treated using spinal decompression. The cost for successful non-surgical therapy is less than a tenth of that for surgery."
We have also included a list of research studies to review concerning this type of therapy. Please take the time to educate yourself on what leading professions in the field have to say in regard to the effectiveness of the therapy. Dr. Hill is available to discuss any questions you may have regarding this research at the time of your consultation.
4. Why aren't medications a good option for managing my pain?
We believe that managing pain through medication isn't addressing or solving the issue of WHY you're in pain in the first place. Dr. Hill spent a decade of his life in school, with more anatomy and neurology classes than a medical doctor takes. He knows the body and he knows how to find the root issue of why people are in pain. He also knows that medications aren't going to fix the problems with a disc. Patients who are candidates for this therapy and choose to follow the protocol are desperate for relief. They need something more than regular chiropractic but aren't ready to settle for a life of medication or the negative effects of surgery. Many people have found hope again. Remember, this is not about managing the pain. We are offering a therapy, backed by research, that repairs the discs. Then we educate people on how to properly care for their spine, so they can avoid damaging their discs and enduring unnecessary pain in the future.
5. Why is this a better option than surgery?
Surgery is invasive, expensive and doesn't have a high success rate. Often times, surgeries don't repair the discs, run the risk of further damage, and allow scar tissue to develop which causes another host of problems. Some patients even finds themselves needing an additional surgery to combat the negative effects of their first surgery. This doesn't include the high medical bills endured or the time off work to recover. With non-surgical spinal decompression therapy, most patients can continue working (as long as their jobs aren't counter productive to the therapy). This therapy is significantly more affordable than surgery and allows the patient to continue living his/her life while incorporating new, effective routines to aid in healing.
6. What if I would like to be considered for this type of therapy?
Great! We are excited that you want to explore non-surgical spinal decompression therapy! Give our office a call and set up a consultation with Dr. Hill. This visit will only cost you $25 and will include a comprehensive review of symptoms as well as an MRI review (if you've had one). At that point, Dr. Hill will determine if you are a good candidate for this type of therapy. He will also review the treatment cost and schedule with you in detail at this appointment, so you can make an educated decision about whether or not to proceed.
