Due to five spine surgeries and daily chronic pain, Alexis had been physically and mentally addicted to opioids. "I reached a point in my life where the pain pills controlled my every move," she shares. "And my dreams as well when I couldn't sleep." When it began affecting her marriage in a very negative way, Alexis stepped out on faith and made the call to Ideal Option. "It's only been three weeks, but I feel amazing and my husband has even seen a huge change in me for the good," she says.
