One of my most memorable patients was a woman who had worked as a nurse. I started off my chiropractic career working with a group of medical doctors, and she came in to her doctor at that practice in terrible distress. It wasn’t just one thing; it was everything! Her knees, shoulders and hips gave her such pain that she actually had to retire because of it.
Her family doctor referred her to me for care. After I’d done the physical examination I told her, “We’re going to take one year to revolutionize your life.”
Let us help you regain your health!
Along with her regular chiropractic care, I gave her exercises to do to help her healing, and had her visit a massage therapist.
The One-Year Difference
As promised, we worked together to get her well for a year, and then took a look back. In that year, she had un-retired and gone back to nursing. Her strength was better, her pain was gone, and the frequency of care she needed with me had decreased.
I continued seeing her for another year, and then, two years after she’d initially started seeing me, she was still an entirely different woman from the year before. She was able to lead an active life again and continued being pain-free.
A Slight Hiccup!
Shortly after, the woman had stopped care with me and then had broken her wrist. She started the healing process and had seen a physiotherapist for post-injury rehabilitation on her wrist. After a couple of months with no progress, she gave our office a call again. We used laser therapy, the Graston technique and her usual chiropractic care. Within two weeks, she had a dramatic improvement in the rehabilitation of her wrist.

Wonderful story Dr. Berenstein. Having come to you post-surgery (knee replacement and tibia-turn)...your methods have helped greatly. I would advise anyone post surgery to come to your clinic for treatment!

Thanks Maria. You've always been a big fan of the methods I use to help you. Your knee ROM looked great last time I saw you. Keep it up!

Not surprised! When my back goes out on me, Dr Berenstein's techniques help me function again within a day or two when before it would take me a week or so to get in and out of bed, my car or walk without any pain.
