Chris B Shares His Experience!
Chris consulted our office in mid-July. He has had neck pain
which he would wake up with and would stay tight throughout the day
making it difficult to get through the day. Soon after starting
care his neck pain and tightness went away. The best thing is Chris
has experienced better exercise/workouts and an “overall better
quality of life.” The x-ray above shows why Chris feels so
much healthier. Restoring the normal curve in the neck took
pressure off of the spinal nerves and the spinal cord as well.
Chiropractic care is true "health care" as it helps to restore and
maintain health!
My name is Nubia and I was referred to Dr. Stephen Simonetti by
my employer. I needed to see Dr. Simonetti because I had severe
lower back pain. The pain was unrelenting and I had difficulty
getting out of bed.
Tylenol and Doans pills would only give me one or two minutes of
relief. Two weeks of taking the pills did nothing but irritate my
stomach.
On my first visit Dr. Simonetti did a thorough examination, a
computerized spinal exam and took x-rays. He found that I had
several areas of subluxation (misalignment) in my lower back. I was
surprised to hear that the doctor also found subluxations in my
neck and upper back. I did not have neck or upper back pain. I did,
however experience severe headaches just about every single day for
about five years. My medical doctor had given me medication but the
headaches persisted. I have been taking the medication every
day.
On my second visit Dr. Simonetti reviewed my examination/x-ray
findings and explained and that the areas of subluxations could be
the cause of my lower back pain. He also informed me that although
chiropractic is not a treatment for any symptom or disease my
headaches may be caused by the nerve irritation related to the
subluxations in my neck.
I started my adjustments not knowing what to expect as I have never
been to a chiropractor. The results have been amazing. My severe
lower back pain was much less within two weeks and now after about
six weeks the lower back pain is just about gone. What is more
amazing is that my headaches which I had everyday for five years
are also gone. I can now enjoy my life so much more without the
headaches and I don’t have to take the medication and risk the
dangerous side effects to my body.
I am so thankful someone told me about Dr. Simonetti! Thanks to him
and his lovely staff I am a healthier person.
My son Christopher was born with severe Colic. Although I tried
to breastfeed Chris he would not nurse for more than a minute or
two, get frustrated and cry. He was not sleeping at all and he was
not gaining weight. The pediatrician’s solution was to not
breastfeed and give more formula. Chris’s digestive system could
not digest the formula either. The pediatrician then recommended a
Colic medication. At that point I decided to bring Chris to see Dr.
Simonetti. I had been under the care of Dr. Simonetti and
experienced great results with my chronic reflux and headaches. I
brought Chris to Dr. Simonetti’s office when he was twenty-two days
old.
Dr. Simonetti checked Chris’s nerve system and found irritation to
the nerves affecting Chris’s digestive system. He explained that
the child birthing process in North America is often traumatic to
the babies spine. Even with Chris’s natural childbirth his head is
pulled with sixty to ninety pounds of pressure while rotating his
head 180°. This traumatic process often results in misalignment of
the spinal vertebra (subluxation) and can result in Colic, ear
infections and other childhood ailments.
Dr. Simonetti performed an adjustment on Chris’s first visit. He
then suggested I attempt to breast feed. The rest of the story is
nothing but amazing. Chris fed for nearly twenty minutes and was
burped easily for the first time. That night he slept through the
night where before he could only sleep for very short periods.
Chris is now almost three, healthy and has never had any digestive
problems, thanks to Chiropractic!
When I consulted with Dr. Simonetti, he asked me if he found the
cause of my allergies, headaches, sinus pressure and/or jaw
problem, would I be willing to do what was needed to help myself. I
realized what I was doing was not working so I was willing to try
something I never thought could help me.
My first visit consisted of a thorough examination including x-rays
and a computerized study that measured the status of my nerve
system.On my next visit Dr. Simonetti reviewed the results of my
evaluations. He informed me that my spine had misaligned in several
areas (vertebral subluxation) and that this change in structure was
affecting the functioning of my nerve system. Dr. Simonetti taught
me how the nerve system regulates the function of every tissue,
cell and organ of the body. I learned that the cause of my symptoms
was due to an interference of the normal flow of nerve energy from
my brain and spinal cord to various the tissue cells and systems of
my body. Dr. Simonetti recommended a program of care and also
suggested that I attend the office health workshops to learn more
about proper nutrition, exercise and other lifestyle choices that
would help me get better quicker. I decided to follow his
recommendations and began a program of care that started with three
spinal adjustments per week. Well, I must tell you that after two
or three weeks my allergies went away almost completely. My
headaches and sinus pressure are gone and my jaw feels just about
normal. I have now been under care for about four months and I no
longer suffer with allergies which affected my quality of life for
longer than I want to remember. My thanks to Dr. Simonetti and his
lovely staff.
I did a search on the GHI website and found Dr. Simonetti. As it
turns out, I had played football with Dr. Simonetti years ago. Dr.
Simonetti did a thorough examination, including a computerized
spinal stress analysis and took some x-rays. He found that I had
several areas of vertebral subluxation in my lower spine as well as
in my pelvis. The results of my adjustments have been outstanding.
I have complete change in my physical ability. I have no more limp
or pain in my left leg, no pain in my right leg, and a much more
flexible feeling throughout my body as well as an overall energetic
feeling. I am so grateful for chiropractic as well as Dr. Simonetti
and his wonderful staff. I hope others will learn from my
experience and share chiropractic with others.
