 NO PAIN!

        I didn’t know if it would help, but I came to see Dr. Vanessa on April 20^th. She found a misalignment in the top of my neck. She took very detailed x-rays of that area and corrected it. I didn’t even feel the adjustment, but for the next week and a half my hearing would come and go. I also had ringing in my ears during this time. I knew something was changing. The next day I woke up and I COULD HEAR AGAIN!!! I’ve had to turn my tv down twice since having my neck corrected.

           10 days after my first adjustment my hearing had returned in both ears. The R ear hasn’t worked for the last 15 years and I thought it never would again. I’ve only been adjusted 2x since I started care and I’m still holding my alignment and I’m getting better and better everyday. I even have to wear ear plugs at work now, something I never had to do before. Also, I spend most of my time sitting at work and have always had pain after sitting for too long. I have noticed I can sit all day at work now without any pain at all.

Thank you so much Dr. Vanessa!

 No More HEADACHES!!!

          I brought my son in for an injury he sustained in a car accident, what I didn’t know is that I was walking out a patient as well!  I’ve been getting manual adjustments for some time now and I would always get headaches in the days to follow.  Once I saw the video playing in Dr. Shields office I decided to take a leap of faith and give it a shot.

         I am completely in awe of the results that followed. I actually feel more alert, energized, and healthy than I’ve been in a very long time.  What an amazing approach! How are there not more of these doctors around?

Thank you so much Dr. Shields!

 I no longer travel to Missouri

for Atlas Care!!!

 After sustaining a head/neck injury, I began having progressive decreased sensation and weakness in my arms and legs and difficulty lifting objects to shoulder level without losing my grip on the object. I began to have worsening muscle spasms in my neck and back, which were not responsive to other therapies. After beginning care with an Upper Cervical doctor, I am gradually regaining my sensation and strength in my hands, and my muscle spasms are diminished. I try not to think about how much nerve damage I would have experienced had I not started Upper Cervical care when I did! Thank you so much Dr. Shields for opening your practice in Weston, FL and for spreading the message of the amazing benefits and power of Upper Cervical Care to our community!

  Don't Wait Like I Did, Get Out of Pain NOW!

My name is Beverly and I had fallen and broke my hip- I also fractured my femur in 3 places. This left my leg more than 1 inch shorter than the other one.

I was told it would take approximately 1 year to heal. After a year and a half I was still in extreme pain. I had problems getting dressed, walking, standing, sitting, and sleeping.

My very first visit I felt immediate relief from the pain! My short leg regained 3/4 inch. I was in shock!!!  I cried with relief and hugged Dr. Shields. She explained everything to me, so I also found my experience very educational. I knew I was on the road to recovery.

Since my treatments began, all kinds of positive things have happened, not only with my hip and leg, but also my overall health has improved. I am able to work again part-time for now. My mobility has remarkably improved. My pain level is low and managable and still improving.

I highly recommend this treatment. Looking back I can't believe I lived with so much pain. I don't even like to think of it.

I would like to thank Dr. Shields and her staff  for their compassion and support. I can't express enough how grateful I am. I would like to tell the world........ Don't wait like I did, get out of pain now!

Sincerely,

Beverly Melchin

After 30 Years, Relief of Neck/Back Pain !

For almost 30 years, since a bad car accident, I have suffered from bad neck pain, lower back pain and numbness/tingling in my arms. Within one visit with Dr. Shields, tingling in my arm lessened. Six months later, maintaining my care with Dr. Shields, I am a new and improved woman.  The numbness is gone. I feel so much better. Having the Atlas correction has improved my neck and back pain more than almost 25 years of Traditional Chiropractic. Dr. V is amazing - my hero!"

Complete Relief!

Over the last several years, I sufferred from muscular tension in the back, shoulders, and postural distress. It was becoming increasingly difficult to sit up or stand straight. It finally got to the point where I wasn't comfortable in any chair. I was only comfortable lying flat on my back. Over a period of 18 months I began to lose weight . I was skeletal thin and completely exhausted by the time I met Dr. Vanessa. After the initial treatment, I experienced a sense of euphoria, followed by release of muscular tension in my shoulders, and I noticed an immediate change in my breathing. My energy level improved within the week and my digestion improved several months later. It is unbelievable to me how much relief the Atlas correction brought. I can now sit up straight, stand straight, and I feel and look so much healthier. Complete relief. I can't believe I managed to live without this specialized chiropractic care. It has made all the difference. Thank you so much Dr. Vanessa!
