I was involved in a rear end collision on the Kennedy Expressway. I was struck from behind pretty hard and was left in a pretty messed up state. Because of the care Dr. Seaman and her staff provided for me, I'm almost my old self again. Dr. Seaman is a very caring, kind professional chiropractor. To whomever reads this letter, please allow Dr. Seaman to "fix u up". You won't regret it!

Sincerely,

Christian M.

When I came to Dr. Seaman's I was getting horrible headaches everyday and my doctor had me on elavil (an anti-depressant) because he couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. After about 2 months of adjustments my headaches were gone and I was off my pills. I still get adjustments once a month and my headaches are gone.

My chiropractic treatment also helped my scoliosis and my posture. I've been very pleased with my chiropractic treatment. I just wish I had come sooner.

I came in with excruciating pain on the right side, lower back area. I had it on and off for over a year, but not as intense or excruciating; I could not sit, walk of lay down...could not find a comfortable position to alleviate the pain.

Since I have had treatment and rehab, I feel like a new person, able to function far better than I have for a few years.

Thanks to Dr. Seaman, I feel like a human being again...able to work, and do all the things I did before the pain.

Furthermore, I know I need to continue to keep in shape to remain pain free. Seaman Chiropractic Center will help me to maintain good health.

A few years ago I consulted an orthopedic surgeon for chronically painful knees resulting from years of dance, over-use and injuries. His solution was to wait until the condition warranted surgery. I was given a prescription, a few vague exercises, and no hope.

For a few years I resorted to anti-inflammatory herbs to control the pain, but their effects gradually lessened. Having a background in selling nutritional supplements, I became increasingly aware of alternative therapies that some of my customers were seeking.

At that point, my knees were seriously beginning to affect my life. A day at work would not be tolerable without knee bandages, and walking like an aarthritic 80 year-old woman. It's ironic I came to know Dr. Seaman through pain! I'd come down Elston Ave after work, stop at the Foster Ave light and see the sign, "Why Suffer?" After seeing this message night after night, I became angry and thought, "Yes, why suffer?", so I made an appointment.

Two days after a Saturday night wedding reception, where I danced frantically, I had my first appointment. I was in such pain I felt like calling it off; really wondering if chiropractic care could handle the damage I had inflicted on my knees. My brothers, both being in the medical field, discouraged me while, at the same, recommending surgeonss they knew who could "correct" my problems.

After my first visit, which included low-dose X-rays, and a lengthy consultation with Dr. Seaman, it was determined the next few weeks would involve ultra-sound, electrical stimulation, and of all things, acupuncture to combat the pain.

I was immediately drawn to the friendly, relaxed atmosphere in the clinic. I noticed the warm interaction between Dr. Seaman, the staff and other patients. The treament would take time. I was willing to give it a chance.

I am now at the end of 3 months of steady chiropractic care, and my knees have imporved so much I can hardly believe it. I went in with an open mind, hoping for the best; I can now enthusiastically encourage others to try it. Of course it took time, and there were other set-backs, but I recovered.

I was certain the nutritional supplements I was taking were helping, but I was skeptical of acupuncture. The thought of sitting like a pin cushion for 30 minutes wasn't appealing, but I was desparate for pain control. It took about 5 treatments before I could actually feel my knees coming to life, so to speak. The areas that were previously numb from injuries had a tingling sensation. I can honestly say acupuncture has given me absolute pain relief.

I am not against traditional medicine because it works well in life-threatening situations. However in other siituations the answer isn't always more medication and costly surgeries.

Chiropractic care involves the total person. During my weeks of treatment and rehab I focused on being pain-free; free from the pain that resulted from my limitations.

Dear Dr. Seaman and Staff,

I have passed by your office many times in the past 8 years, wondering if this was the place for me. My husband tried to encourage me but I was overwhelmed with my pain, I could not bring my self to go...until one day some one called from your office, offering a free exam. That's all it took! I was there in five days.

I just wanted to express how "welcomed" and relieved" I felt when I walked into your office for my first treatment. You and your staff were very caring and eager to murture my pains in my body. After 2 weeks now, I'm on my road to recovery and health.

Thank you so much for helping me and I know I can leave my concerns in good hands. I hope other people will not wait as long as I did for treatment.

I appreciate your care and genuine honesty to diagnose the problem and not just treat the symptoms. Thank you.

Darlene G.

Since starting treatment in April I have much improvement in my mobility and have reduced the pain I previously experienced through exercise and Dr. Seaman's treatment.
