My reasons for visiting Dr. Jeff were for chronic neck and upper back problems and for problems with one of my hips, since I had been told that chiropractic care was not just limited to areas of the spine. I sit in front of a computer terminal most of the day and during much of that time I had been bothered by tension in my neck and upper back. I had received chiropractic care for short periods in the past, but was never motivated enough to continue. This may have been due to lack of satisfaction with the results. In the past I have had injections shot directly into the back and glut muscles. This, however, only brought relief for several weeks and a person can’t repeatedly get injections every few weeks. Also, the injections were only into my back and glut; doctors wouldn’t think about putting them into my neck. Several years ago I also received acupuncture treatments for a couple of years. This helped relax the muscles in many parts of my body, but those treatments helped me to realize that there was probably more that needed to be done to bring me to better health. I could feel in my neck and upper back that my spine wasn’t quite right. After my initial examination with Dr. Jeff, he realized I probably needed more concentrated work in my neck area. With adjustments and specific exercises, I was very satisfied with the results in my neck and back areas. I thought that in addition to the chiropractic adjustments and exercises I would have to receive other specific care to relax the neck and upper back muscles, but this has not been the case. The adjustments and exercises have been enough to bring relief even to the muscle areas. I was also impressed by the relief I received in my hip area, which I never thought I could get. I never thought I could improve as much as I have during the last four months and there was noticeable improvement during the first month. I have to believe that as time progressed, my condition would have gotten worse and certainly up till now, has not gotten better. Also, maybe only by coincidence or maybe not, I have not had any flu or fevers caused by any upper respiratory infections since I started treatments in October 2007. It is now March 2008. Invariably every year I get sick at least once between September and March. The only difference that I can think of between now and the past has been chiropractic care: adjustments and the specific exercises that Dr. Jeff advised me to do for my conditions. I would advise anyone who is thinking about chiropractic care not to put it off for too long. I wish I had been more committed sooner because my quality of life has improved significantly. --- Damien C.

I had low back pain, neck pain, frequent headaches, and sinus infections for several years. At times, the back pain was so severe it would bring me to my knees. I came to Dr. Jeff's office wanting to reduce my pain as much as possible. Having never seen a chiropractor, I had some doubts that I would see any results in my neck or back. On my first visit, I learned a lot about Chiropractic. I found the office friendly and concerned about the patients' care. I was impressed that just by checking my spine, Dr. Jeff was able to guess all the symptoms I was suffering from and that he was concerned about people and their health. Dr. Jeff recommended I come in three times a week to see how things would progress and to do certain exercises at home to help with my improvement. Since being under care, I have seen almost all of my pain disappear. My headache frequency has also lessened. My understanding of Chiropractic is helping to heal my body even though I may not be aware of problems with it due to the absence of pain. If ohters were suffering, I would recommend Chiropractic to them - as I had done with friends and family members. I am glad I became a patient of Dr. Jeff's.                 --- Jeannine M.

My daughters had been coming to see Dr. Jeff and I was impressed with their response to care, so I decided to get my spine checked as well. I sought improvement on my overall well being. I was positive that given the chance, Chiropractic and Dr. Jeff would make lasting correction on the subluxations found during my exam. I had never been to a Chiropractor before, so my first impressions of Chiropractic were very positive. I found the office to be positive and welcoming and Dr. Jeff to be professional, knowledgeable, friendly, nuturing, and over all- "the BEST!" I understand Chiropractic to allow the body to work naturally to correct itself, rather than fighting its healing mechanisms. My entire family is under Dr. Jeff's care and I tell others to give Chiropractic a chance...you'll be pleasantly surprised! It has enabled my daughters, who are both competative gymnists, to perform at peak levels. Even after months of care, I feel as strong/positively about Chiropractic as the first time I stepped over the threshold. --- Charene T.

I was having migraines and pains in my wrist. The migraines had been occuring for almost 3 years every day and the pains in my wrist had been happening over the past couple of months. With the migraines, I saw my family doctor and a neurologist. All they did was put me on medication that made me not able to function. In the 2 weeks that I've been coming here, the migraines stopped and I haven't experienced pain in my wrist. If you are experiencing the pain and nothing else has worked, you should give Chiropractic a shot because you have nothing to loose and only the possibility that it could get better. It worked for me! ADDENDUM: After coming for almost 8 months, I've lost an additional 23 pounds and the only thing I've done differently is added Chiropractic care to my routine. --- Ruthann S.

I sought Chiropractic care because of neck pain and a choking sensation. I had thyroid surgery, which did not relieve the choking symptoms. When I started to get adjusted, the choking feeling has dramatically subsided. I believe that if I was to stop getting adjusted the choking and neck pain would return and that in 10 years from now I'd be on some type of tranquilizer. Chiropractic works. You can't imagine how it feels to constantly feel like you are choking and then the relief when it subsides. --- Lynda K.

I started Chiropractic care because of my headaches. Before coming here I tried medicine, Advid, Asprin, Exedrine Migrane, and Aleive. It didn't work. The doctor prescribed Vioxx. Since starting Chiropractic with Dr. Jeff, at school, I can pay attention and see better now that my headaches are gone, and I can sleep better too. Also, I no longer need allergy medicine or an inhaler since I came here. If I stopped getting adjusted I would have headaches every day and I would not pay attention in school. I would be on prescription medication too. Chiropractic works and you won't have the same pain you had before. ---Jimmy K. (written when 13 years old, now 18)
