Julie L. Success Story
Thank you for helping me overcome my years of back, shoulder, hip and neck pain. After injuring my shoulder while exercising, and my neck while on the job, my body just seemed to be spinning out of control. Between sports and everyday life, it seemed like there was a new problem every 6 months and I never thought my body would be "quite right" ever again. I thought I would have to "live with it", and if my condition continued to progress, keep following a recurring course of traditional medical care, including shots, pills, and all sorts of symptom relief that never really fixed the real problem.
Prior to becoming your patient, I had been going to another chiropractor offering a "traditional" chiropractic neck and back therapy, complete with the jerking and cracking of my neck and spine. I had been in treatment on and off for over 2 years, with no permanent relief of my symptoms or pain. I would feel great after my adjustment, only to feel the symptoms returning after less than a week, when I would have to go back for another office visit, and the cycle would continue. I like and respect my other Chiropractor very much. But although I would see relief after each visit with him, I wondered if I would be chained to the office at least once a week for the rest of my days.
I was a little skeptical when I started treatment with you - not so much about the difference between upper cervical and other Chiropractic methods, but I wondered if anything could give me permanent relief from my injuries. It was also difficult to break a two-year relationship with another care provider. But since becoming your patient, in just a little over two months, my neck and back are completely pain free. My shoulder, which I thought was a completely unrelated injury from the rest, has also started to heal - I can actually lift my jacket without stabbing pain. And my hip, which was acutely painful during my first visits with you, has also started to calm down. I can sit and walk again without pain.
Now that I remember what it feels like to live pain-free, I never want to go back again.
Sincerely,
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I can run again! Yesterday it was raining and I didn't want to get real wet. I felt good enough to run across the street. This is significant because it has been difficult for me to do alot of active movement for the past 9 months due to the back pain I have been experiencing. That is until I started treatments with you this January. My improvement has been steady. I feel better every week and now look forward to playing golf again. This could not have been done without your help.
Thanks again,
P.S. Your office is the friendliest office and your wife Karen has been a wonderful help too!
I had been bothered by lower back pain for going on 12 years. Every morning was a chore to get out of bed, and laying flat on my back or on my stomach for only a matter of minutes resulted in stiffness and pain. I have herniated two lumbar discs over the past 4 years. I quit playing basketball, a sport I love, for fear of herniating them again. Over the years, I had seen several chiropractors who treated only the symptoms, and not the problems of my pain. I had decided to try upper cervical and see Dr. Gindhart because I felt I had tried everything else. After the first treatment, I instantly felt better. The pain and stiffness was gone, and I could even lay on my stomach without fear of injury. It's been almost 4 months now and I still hold my corrections the majority of the time. I would recommend anybody with back pain to undergo upper cervical care.

We have always tried to take a natural approach with our children as far as their health care. All three children were breastfed and given fresh fruits and vegetables. Of course, junk food is so readily available they certainly have had their share. Medication was only given to them when absolutely needed.
Because we have such great results ourselves with upper cervical care we have complete confidence in Dr. Gindhart to treat our children as well.
The technique is so gentle that the kids are very comfortable getting adjusted. They really enjoy the recovery room.
The children may not notice a difference but we definitely do not visit the pediatrician as often.
We have been very happy with the results from Dr. Gindhart. We know we are giving our children a healthy head start in life.

Dr. Gindhart told me about upper cervical and how much he believed in it. I decided to give it a try because I was not getting any lasting relief from my lower back pain with my chiropractor at that time. Dr. Gindhart was very thorough with his explanation and exam. I was having quite a bit of discomfort before my first upper cervical adjustment, and I really noticed a big difference after just one adjustment. I have been receiving upper cervical care for a year now, and am holding longer and longer, and self-correcting for the last few months.
I was going to my traditional chiropractor every one to three weeks to have my lower back and hips adjusted, and after one upper cervical adjustment I could see how all those adjustments had just been short-term fixes, and that the principles of upper cervical really do make sense and it works.
I had been having lower back pain for years, and it was getting worse from the constant strains of working as a hospital nurse. I really thought that I would spend the rest of my life going to the chiropractor every few weeks. I was constantly stretching and kneading my lower back to try to get relief, and then my hips started hurting. So then I was having my chiropractor "pull my leg" to get relief from that pain. When I had my first NUCCA adjustment, not really knowing what it all involved, I told Dr. Gindhart that besides doing whatever it was he was going to do, I really needed him to adjust my hip. Even after having heard the explanation of NUCCA, I had no idea that the NUCCA adjustment would do what it did. When I stood up after being adjusted, the pain was gone. I was pretty amazed that the gentle adjustment made such a huge difference!
Three years ago I began having pain in my hip. It was very sporadic. Over the course of time the pain became more frequent and involved not only my hip but also my lower back, my entire leg and my toes would become numb. I assumed a nerve was being pinched. The family physician ordered an x-ray, then an MRI. Both tests were negative. I soon found I was always sitting on the sofa resting my leg. I began to feel weak and frustrated. I'm only 38 and I have three young kids to keep up with. Resting was not an option! I didn't want to depend on medication. I wanted to solve the problem, not hide it. By the time I finally started upper cervical care with Dr. Gindhart, I had shooting pain down my entire leg and it would also give out on me. My lower back was aching more often and the pain was becoming more constant. After each correction I would feel better. I am now on a maintenance schedule and my hip, leg and lower back are pain-free. Also, I have noticed a drastic decrease in headaches and my TMJ syndrome has greatly improved. I am in better health overall. It feels great to get out and go for walks again. I have even joined a gym!
Dr. Gindhart has helped me to achieve the quality of life I am used to. When I started my care, I was continuing to have to rest once a day. Then it became once every few days, then once a week. Now I don't think about resting, I think about what I'm going to do next!
I will always be amazed by how a gentle touch can achieve such awesome life changing results.
Thank you Dr. Gindhart for your time, your compassion, and your talent.
(While under Dr. Gindhart's care, I noticed when I cut my son's hair that the muscles in the back of his neck were very relaxed. He had always mentioned to me that it was painful to bend his chin to his chest. The muscles never fully lay flat, making it hard to cut his hair. Because of upper cervical care, his neck muscles are relaxed and he can now get an even, close haircut. I also noticed that he is not coughing as much. - Billy R.'s mom)
I am always amazed at what upper cervical care can do. During a recent visit with you, I was having a 'silent migraine', which gives me visual impairment. Immediately after the adjustment when I sat up I realized that the migraine headache was gone. This had never happened to me before, as the headache always lasted considerably longer.
I have no doubt that upper cervical care helps the body to stay in alignment which helps the body to heal itself!
I used to get really bad colds every winter that would last about 7 days. Every morning I would also wake up with leg pain (which I never thought about until I noticed that it was gone). I also had frequent headaches and began to feel the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. Over the process of a couple of months, these symptoms caused by subluxations disappeared because of chiropractic care.
I found that I enjoyed going to the chiropractor because I enjoyed having my health back. I did find that I would not keep my correction for an extended period of time, so I was excited when my husband found out about a type of care that is so specific that the body holds the correction longer. This type of care is upper cervical.
Under Dr. Gindhart's care, I found that my health went to the next level. My earaches disappeared, because my body was being viewed as a single unit, rather than adjusting my jaw and my neck separately. My joints used to click when moving, especially my knees and my neck. Under upper cervical care, my movements are much smoother and my overall health has improved.
