Dr. Christine M. Kaczmar
Original Complaint: Leg Numbness/Knee Pain

I started seeing Dr. Christine in May of 2009. I had always been skeptical of the whole chiropractor thing. I really didn’t think it did anything for people and I was scared to death of that whole cracking of the neck thing. Well, having been a friend of Dr. Christine’s since junior high school..we ran in to one another at our 20 year class reunion and have stayed in touch ever since. Needless to say, she eventually talked me in to making an appointment to come see her (after a brief look over next to the pool table at Snooker’s ). So, upon my return from vacation, I made an appointment and am SO glad that I did.

I had told Dr. Christine that I had felt something like a “tingling numbness” on the outside of my left thigh for quite some time. I had also had some problems with my knees (which I just chalked up to the fact that I was overweight). Since seeing Dr. Christine for regular adjustments, both of these things have gone away. I am not kidding. It was just one evening that I realized..”Hey, that tingling went away.” Also, I am not finding the need to prop my leg up on pillows anymore to make the aches in my knee go away either.

I know, I know…I wouldn’t believe me either, if I hadn’t been through it myself. It is true, trust me.

One more thing…Dr. Christine’s staff is AMAZING!! They are one of the happiest, friendliest groups of people I have met. It is a great feeling walking in to a Doctor’s office and feeling at home. I have also had a massage at the Center and it was amazing.

I have yet to attend a digestive seminar, but I have heard nothing but amazing things about them.
Thank you Dr. Christine and Staff for everything!

I can truly say that my life will forever be changed from having met Dr. Christine in February of 2008. When I first started with Dr. Christine, I was depressed and had been having digestive issues for years. She was able to diagnose my problems and gave me many pointers on eating, drinking and digestive enzymes and when I listen to her, I feel healthier than I have in the past 5 years. One of the things I have changed the most in my life since having met her, is that I almost never take drugs anymore. I can’t even pick up a bottle in a store or my house that I don’t think about her and usually put it down. Whether it is for a headache, intestinal issues, insomnia–whatever–I stop and think about what Dr. Christine has taught me and I try to do without. I admit, I’m not the best patient and I need to be more consistent with my enzymes so I can feel healthy all the time instead just weeks at a time.

The other thing that I have changed since meeting Dr. Christine is grocery shopping. Everybody knows that eating fruits and vegetables is good for you and you should eat them and I do…but just like other people, I add garbage to my diet. I learned more about healthy eating and what the garbage in packaged foods does to a body from her, than anywhere else in my life. I have been in and out of chiropractic care for 10 years, but this past year and a half is the first time I have been consistent and I can tell the difference. I have been off of asthma medication for the first time since I was 16, I have been off anti-depressants and my body just feels better when I get adjusted regularly. I get sick less often and when I do get sick, it is less severe, especially if I get adjusted as soon as I start to feel ill.

My son is also a big fan of Dr. Christine’s and loves to come to her office. He just turned 6, and in the year and half since he has been seeing her has hardly been sick, is less constipated, sleeps better and says he always feels good when he leaves her office.

The last thing I want to add is that Dr. Christine has an amazing staff. I never feel like I’m walking into a business office when I walk in, although they are extremely professional, I feel like I’m visiting friends. Everyone is so kind and helpful and pleasant, it just makes the whole experience positive. I’m very excited to have been asked to be the first patient of the month and I look forward to seeing new patient testimonials when I visit. By the way, if you have not attended one of Dr. Christine’s digestive talks, you must–you don’t know what you are missing and it could save your life!

Did you know that kids need adjustments too? The very first physical stress that occurs is during the birthing process. The stretching and pulling that occurs on the neck of the infant can cause severe to fatal outcomes.
However, many parents aren’t aware of the amazing benefits chiropractic adjustments have to offer. Think of it, if your child has stress to the neck that goes uncorrected for 10 years, imagine the potential health problems that can result. The nerves of the neck control the function of the entire organ systems. Chiropractors remove the stress to the nerves so that the body can function at a higher level. It’s really that simple.

I am often asked which types of problems I help people with most. Although chiropractic is never intended to treat a symptom, I would be silly to not express the fact that many headaches are relieved with chiropractic. I simply say this because when proper motion is restored to the neck and shoulders, good things happen.
Chiropractic is so effective because two things occur.
1. Motion and flexibility are re-introduced to the spine.
2. Nerve interference is removed and/or reduced.
Only good things can result with the application of a proper chiropractic adjustment.
Remember, the nerves act as wires or circuits that control every single piece and part of you!
In addition to structural stress to the neck, headaches are also a direct result of dehydration and/or consumption of sugar-free products. Products that contain Splenda and Nutrasweet are to be avoided.
