"I personally have been going to Dr. MacAdam for wellness care for 15 years. My belief in chiropractic care has grown because of my experience with him. I saw Dr. MacAdam and his staff through all 3 of my pregnancies. It helped so much with my lower back pain, swelling, deliveries and recovery.
Dr. MacAdam shows professional care for our family from a holistic perspective, addressing our dietary and chiropractic needs. He has also treated one of our boys for asthma, as well as them having regular adjustments for wellness. Dr. MacAdam is and will always be our family chiropractor, adviser and friend." - Keeley G.
"I came to Dr. MacAdam with constant headaches, lower back pain and tightness in my neck muscles.
For the headaches I was taking anywhere from 4-8 Advil a day, usually 8 on a bad day and 4 on a good day, good days were few and far between.
My stiffness in my neck restricted my driving and made it difficult to turn my head to the side and hurt every morning when I got up. My lower back pain kept me from bending over very much and didn’t let me sleep more than 4-5 hours at night.
After I started therapy with Dr. Mac I rarely take Advil and really don’t remember my last headache and that was only after two months of therapy. My stiffness in my neck is almost 70% cured, thanks to the adjustments and a massage therapy once a week. Also my lower back pain is almost gone, except a little in the morning when I first wake up. But, if I do my stretches before I get out of bed the back pain disappears.
So I have to say, that it has made a huge difference in my life…especially eliminating the Advil." - Sharon C.
"I went to see Dr. MacAdam for pain in my lower back and hip after doing a flip in Kung Fu. After several weeks of treatment, I began to feel relief. During that process, I realized I was no longer getting migraines. I had experienced migraines 2-3 times a month since the age of 6. I am so glad I went to see Dr. MacAdam. He helped me get back into my two favorite sports, Kung Fu and swimming; but best of all he helped to lessen my migraines! My whole family is treated by Dr. MacAdam, and we all have been feeling great!" - Nicholas K., age 10
