Dr Reza gives you your Back Back (No Pun)

HISTORY:

20 years ago, I hurt my back in a car accident that resulted in a bulging disc in the L4/L5 area of my back

While clearing snow from around our vehicle this past winter (2015), something went horribly wrong. I experienced all kinds of spasms in my buttocks and shooting pain down the side and back of my legs.

My doctor gave me 800mg Motrin 3x a day and assumed it was nothing more than inflammation and refused giving me an Xray or MRI. The Motrin did very little for the level of pain I was experiencing. Besides that, after a week, I didn't want to continue the recommended high dosage of medication for fear of possibly causing harm to my liver and or kidneys.

I began looking for a chiropractor because I saw, many of them were offering an affordable examination, Xray and adjustments, through Groupon.

The first chiropractor I found was more concerned about my insurance information and told me to not expect to be healed with the Groupon visits and expect to be seen for at least a year. That was on day 1. By the 3rd day, I knew that was not the place for me.

I did more chiropractor research and learned about spinal decompression. After reading positive reviews about the procedure and hearing testimonials about how 20-30 year disc herniations were healed, I was better equipped with the knowledge of how to choose a chiropractor.

The 2nd chiropractor found through groupon was better than the first but something was telling me to keep looking. Yes, the pain and symptoms were that severe.

Then I found a chiropractor named Dr. Reza at the Optimum Chiropractic and Health Center. Every review I read was positive. I visited the website and watched a video where Dr Reza said, "if there is a 1% chance I can help you, I will do all that I can". I was sold with that statement alone.

My first appointment at the Optimum Chiropractic and Health Center was on Saturday May 9, 2015. The staff was friendly and Dr. Reza gave me top notch service. He listened to what brought me in to the clinic. Gave me an examination, then the Xray. After the Xray, he explained the results then talked to me extensively about how the spine and nerves worked together.

Because of my symptoms, he knew exactly what was happening and because my 1st MRI was 20 years old, he knew something else was going on. He agreed to talk to my doctor and after that conversation, my doctor agreed an MRI was needed. He assured me that if there was a 1% chance that he could not help me, he would tell me and not waste my time.

The MRI came back and not only revealed the disc in my back was worse than it was before but also revealed another herniation in another disc.

This was one of those rare times that I felt like I got much more than my money's worth and all from an affordable groupon.

Dr. Reza set up a treatment plan and not only am I not taking any medication for pain, my sleeping has improved and there have been many days when I forget I have a herniation in my back. I'm walking further and longer than I was able to as well as standing straight up with much less discomfort in my hips.

The awesome thing is, we are only half way through with the treatment plan.

Dr. Reza is amazing and caring, his office staff is awesome and everyone works like a well built machine. Today is July 26, 2015. Look how long I took to write this review. Dr. Reza and the Optimum Chiropractic and Health Center is the place to be if you want your life back. If you need help, if you need answers, if you want better days and a better quality of life through improved health, do like I did and make an appointment. You're life is worth it.

Thank you Dr. Reza, Judy, "AV" and administrative staff.
