Thanks Dr Lee!

by heathertrimble at Citysearch

I had Dr Lee adjust me for a low back condition that had bothered me ever since my pregnancy...

I had always been a little skeptical about going to see a chiropractor, but a friend told me Dr Lee was really good. I decided to give him a try. I am so glad I did.

His adjustments were really gentle. I noticed an immediate improvement, and in a few short visits my pain was gone.

I wish I would have gone to see him when it first started hurting.

Excellent holistic therapy

by djw333 at Citysearch

I've had chiropractic adjustments since I was 6 years old - my mother was into health food, vitamins and alternative therapies all along. It amazes me that more people are not aware of the benefits of chiropractic treatment, particularly if they are experiencing pain. When your spine is not in alignment it puts pressure on the nerves, which in turn weakens various systems in the body, including the vital organs.

When I was six, Dr. Leith adjusted my neck without telling me what he was going to do first. He just held my head and asked me to relax. I was very surprised, even momentarily terrified, when I heard such a loud noise come out of my neck. However, there was no actual pain from the procedure, and I immediately could feel a rising sensation of relief.

I found Dr. Lee through this listing and just had my first adjustment with him, as well as a massage to help further the treatment along. I put my back out last week from stress, and literally got to a point where I could not lift my arms without excruciating pain. I knew to just take it easy, lie on my back and take hot baths, which I did. The day after it started, I got a few pops - one in bed and three in the shower - and the pressure on the nerve released and I could lift my arms again. However, after that initial breakthrough I plateaued.

Now, a week after this started, I had not really gotten any better. My muscles were still tight and the pain still persisted in the same spot. A combination chiro and massage treatment created a noticeable decrease in my pain level, and my muscles are far more relaxed than before. With just a few more adjustments I know I can rebuild my health and get to a point that is better than where I started before there was pain.

There are some things in life you cannot change, and in those cases it is best just to strive for acceptance. However, muscle pain, back pain, joint pain - all of this is fully preventable. There's no reason to suffer with Dr. Lee's help.

• Pros: Convenient location, multi-disciplinary holistic approach
• Cons: You won't be able to feel a victim from your own pain anymore

True understanding

by drinkh20 at Citysearch

I've been going to a chiropractor for about 10 months now but haven't seemed to quell the problem in my neck and shoulders. I found Dr. Lee on Citysearch and thought to give him a try. I wasn't sure what to expect. It's always a little unnerving for me to have someone twist my neck and hear it snap crackle pop! I decided it was worth the fear if it would relieve my neck pain. He did a thorough history on me and asked what my issues were. He was even able to determine that my hips were misaligned. The moment the adjustment was done I felt like a totally different person with bounce in my step and that darn crick in my neck was gone!!! Dr. Lee, you definitely have a new patient for life. Thanks for being great at what you do : )

• Pros: Dr. Lee's skill & know how, Office staff : )
• Cons: parking unless you park at the park across the st.
