Dave Garvey
I had an irritating cough for some time. I saw a doctor for it, and he told me I had a bone spur on one of the vertebrae in my neck; that's what was aggravating my throat and making me cough. He prescribed antibiotics and steroids, but they didn't work. When it looked like surgery was the next step, I decided to check out my options.
I called Dr. Nardella to see if he could help me. I knew chiropractic worked for a sore back or a pinched nerve, but I have learned that the benefits of chiropractic encompass whole-body health. Dr. Nardella's care has cured my cough, which is great news! The biggest unexpected result is that I am sleeping better and I have more energy. I haven't had a cold or the flu for a long time, so I think it has helped my immunities.
The best part is that I am calmer and have a sense of peace, which has helped me handle life's stresses and improved my relationships. Thanks, Dr. Nardella!
Jane WatsonI felt like I was teetering on the edge when I initially came to see Dr. Nardella. I needed some relief from the high levels of stress I deal with as a pediatric nurse and a mother. Since I was chronically not feeling well, I knew that my stress level was not going to change on its own. I had to try something. I had nothing to lose when my mother recommended Dr. Nardella.
Originally, I thought chiropractic care was a temporary solution involving twisting and turning and cracking. Now I see chiropractic care as more of a preventative measure and a road to wellness. Today, I am able to handle stressful situations better both at home and at the hospital. I'm more balanced emotionally and relaxed physically. My husband and my kids have even noticed that the mood in the house is more pleasant.
Thank you, Dr. Nardella, for making life better for all of us.
Diana HaslerWhen I was 5 years old, I was playing at my parent's farm and I fell out of a hayloft. I fell from about 3 feet off the ground and landed right on my tail bone. I have spent the last 20 years dealing with the after-effects of that incident. The progression of effects kept me from doing small tasks like bending over to tie my shoes, taking deep breaths, or even sitting in a car for more than 2 hours at a time. I also developed a sway back. It was so bad that I could lie flat on the floor and put my arm under my back without lifting up at all. I also used to have to pop my back every night before going to sleep to relieve the back pain. The pain must have also led to the stomach problems I was having. I was taking two different prescriptions two to three times a day.
Since I have been seeing Dr. Nardella I have felt my body change in many ways. My stomach is feeling better and I no longer take the medication on a regular basis. I also just realized that my hands don't fall asleep anymore while I'm working, so chiropractic cleared up my carpal tunnel syndrome too. Plus my sway back is GONE!!
Chiropractic does more than just make my body feel better, it makes my confidence higher, my clothes fit different, and I'm not self-conscious about the way my lower back is curving. After an adjustment, my back tingles, and I can feel my body heal.
Sometimes the money is hard to come up with, but I truly believe it is worth it. In the long run it is going to be much more inexpensive than the treatments I have been on or would need in the future. Thank you, Dr. Nardella.
Matt GarveyI had known about chiropractic for years, but thought it was mostly x-rays and hoaxes. That was until my brother Dave introduced me to Dexter. I had tried traditional medicine and acupuncture for a tailbone injury without finding the relief I was looking for.
Dex and his healing hands were able to help me experience the pain relief I wanted, but that's not all. I was so pleased with the results I have been coming for wellness care for about 6 years now. I don t plan to stop, either.
As a result of chiropractic care, I am more alert and alive. I was most surprised that I have a feeling of openness that spreads through my psyche and physique. It helps me stay aware of the moves I make in my body and in life. This awareness has certainly enhanced my marriage and other relationships. It's wonderful!
Elese NewmanI came in to see Dr. Nardella because I had neck pain, shoulder pain, lower back pain, and joint pain. Basically, I was miserable. I originally had a very bad attitude about chiropractors because my dad had a negative experience with one when he was younger. So, I thought chiropractors didn't know what they were doing.
After I had seen a neurologist, endocrinologist, and rheumatologist for my problems, and hadn't found the relief I was looking for, I decided to try chiropractic.
After three months of care, my lower back is pain free and more flexible. I have more flexibility in my neck, too. I have noticed that because I am more aware of my posture, I stand up straight. This has helped me with my attitude and standing up for myself in general. Instead of withdrawing during stressful situations, I now stand up for myself. Thanks, Dr. Nardella!
Elisa and JulianThe entire summer, my children, Julian (6) and Elisa (3) have been coughing and their noses have been running nonstop. I never thought chiropractic care would help with this.
I was so surprised that, within the first week of care here, the coughing and runny noses had completely stopped. My husband and I have received great chiropractic care from Dex, but I hesitated to bring my children in because I didn't want them to have a "doctor's appointment" after school. I thought they needed time to relax and play. I didn't realize they would like coming here.
It is definitely not like a normal doctor visit. They have fun here and find the adjustments relaxing. We have decided to continue their care here because we can all see the benefits. Thank you again, Dr. Dex. (Geraldine V.)
DanielI had heard both good and bad things about chiropractic in general, and then we heard good reports about Dr. Nardella from friends who had been getting care here. I didn't know that chiropractic could work for a child; I thought it was for adults with back problems.
I was ready to try chiropractic because Daniel, my four-year-old son, had chronic ear and throat infections. Usually I took him to the pediatrician, who would give him antibiotics. But a short time after he stopped taking the antibiotics, he would get another infection. It was very frustrating.
Since we started seeing Dr. Nardella almost a year ago, Daniel has not had one infection or been on antibiotics at all! I have also noticed his overall health has improved, and he is now sleeping better. I can say from personal experience that chiropractic has worked really well for us.
Thanks, Dr. Dex, for your gentle, healing hands. (Myrian W.)
