Chiropractic Testimonials

“I am a 42-year musician and teacher.  I have been going to chiropractors and massage therapists since I was a teenager in an attempt to control pain in my overused hand and to treat misalignments in my neck and upper back.  The regimen had been to see the chiropractor about every two weeks and the massage therapist about once a month.  Unfortunately, my adjustments would never hold for more than a couple of days and I would be in a state of almost constant discomfort or pain, with decreased range of motion.  I felt that my previous chiropractic care kept me in a state of “maintenance” and never moved me to a state of improvement. 

Since receiving care from Dr. Spore over the last six months, I have found that my adjustments hold for much longer, and the underlying problems have finally been addressed.  For example, when I used to work in my garden doing light chores such as weeding or pruning roses, I would suffer from a stiff, sore neck and an aching lower back.  The last time I worked in my yard a couple weeks ago, I felt energized and suffered no discomfort at all!  I can also play the piano and work on the computer for much longer periods than I could before.   I credit all this to Dr. Spore’s treatments.  Her approach gets to the root of the physical problem.  In addressing these issues, she helps the patient move past the state of maintenance and toward complete wellness.  I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking relief from pain and desires total health.

My career of 15 years operating an Electrodermal Testing Device in the wrong ergonomics had taken its toll on my neck causing a spontaneous rupture of 3 cervical discs.  Unfortunately, there was no other solution then to have Cervical Fusion performed.  

I was left with severe spasm, pain, burning, numbness and restrictive movement in my neck and arms.  I went for Prolotherapy for 4 Years which helped me continue to work. I continued to work and finally due to pain and further spinal injuries had to quit my job.  After leaving my job I could no longer afford weekly injections leaving me no choice but to take pain and nerve medication.

To make matters worse in September 2004, while on vacation, I was rear ended in a 3 car collision.  Now, in addition to neck pain, I had mid back and low back pain and spasm.  I started seeing Dr. Kelly as soon as I arrived home, I am still in treatment but as of today (3 weeks later), I am moving my neck more than I ever have since my surgery, my pain level is decreasing with each visit and for the first time in 4 years, I have hope that I will be out of pain in the near future.  Dr. Kelly is a gifted gentle Chiropractor that looks at your body as a whole and treats you with the appropriate supplements and modalities.

I am a 94 yr old Granny I had hip replacement last Feb 2003, June 2003 had dilation of anal area and in Nov 2003 had Resection of 18.5 inches of bowel. Following the hip replacement surgery I had severe spasm of the sciatic nerve which caused severe pain and distress radiating down my entire leg.  I was in pain constantly and unable to sit normally having to rest on my right buttock. I was unable to lye in bed having to sleep in a recliner chair sitting up.  My life was miserable. The Surgeon suggested an MRI; I was unable to have this test done because I was unable to lay for the test.   He informed me that I would probably have to live in pain off and on like this for the rest of my life.

I then went to a Chiropractor in  Langhorne , PA near my home in February.  I would get some relief but the pain would always recur leaving me unable to sleep, sit or walk.  My quality of life was diminishing rapidly; I was asking God to take me home so I could be out of pain.  I should mention while visiting in Phoenix last year from July to Oct. I saw Dr. Kelly Spore two times and was able to have relief for several months. 

In September 2004 at my Granddaughters urging, I came to Phoenix , AZ to stay for 6 mos.  She had arranged a visit with Dr. Spore for the day after my arrival on September 13, 2004 .  After the 1st visit my pain was gone for several hours, when it did recur it was definitely different.  I have continued my treatment going 2-3 times a week and as of today October 7th, the pain is virtually gone and on occasion recurs but alleviates quickly. I am able to rest and sit normally for the first time in almost 2 yrs.  I believed that NO ONE could help me, and never believed I could be out of pain.  I am shocked, to say the least, and very grateful to Dr. Kelly for giving me my “Granny Go Go” energy back.  There are no words that I could ever find to express my gratitude to Dr. Kelly for this new chapter of my life.  I also have a frozen shoulder and problems with biceps which Dr. Kelly will start working on in the next few weeks.  I can hardly wait to see what other miracles she can accomplish.
