Back in Action After 3 Years of Pain

"I was involved in an auto accident almost three years ago in which I was rear ended.
I was taken to the emergency room in which they did an examination, took x-rays and an MRI which showed that I suffered from a herniated disc in my neck as well as my low back. The hospital recommended that I see an orthopedic surgeon who recommended surgery. I stated that I would prefer another method and he recommended some physical therapy, pain medication, anti inflammatory medication and muscle relaxants."

"The medications just took the edge off my pain, but left me fatigued. The physical therapy helped only slightly. Then a friend of mine recommended Dr. Cima and I made an appointment. Dr. Cima had a different approach to my injuries and explained how we could treat my herniated disc condition without surgery. All I can say is that I did not go for the surgery, I am pain free and I play golf and tennis 2-3 times per week."

100% Recovery From Motorcycle Accident

"I was involved in a motorcycle accident 2 ฝ years ago in which my right leg was fractured. My doctor recommended that he not cast the leg and I was put on crutches. I could not bear any weight on the leg. After the initial swelling went down I went to Dr. Cima who treated me for many conditions in the past. He stated that he could work around the fracture by working on balancing my pelvis which was out of alignment when I was thrown from my bike. Dr. Cima got clearance from my orthopedist and then used very low force techniques to make the necessary corrections. Within days I was able to bear some weight on my leg and within two to three weeks I was able to walk without the crutches and within the next month I was able to work out with weights to make my leg strong again. I have no limp and feel that I recovered 100%."

No Surgery For Me!

"I had a car accident 2 years ago and was treated by Dr. Cima for a short while and got a lot of relief. Due to my schedule I discontinued care prematurely. Over time my condition worsened, I suffered from severe migraines, I lost the use of my left arm and I was in excruciating pain. This happened just prior to me starting my nursing program. I went to an orthopedist who stated that I have a very large disc herniation which was pressing on my spinal cord and I would need surgery right away. The doctor also stated that I would have to postpone my nursing program at least 6-12 months."

"Since Dr. Cima treated me in the past I made an appointment. When Dr. Cima looked at the size of the herniation he also thought the surgery may be necessary at that point. Since the surgery was already scheduled he said lets treat until then and see what we could accomplish. I started to feel better and due to a scheduling conflict they postponed my surgery for another week. By that time I was feeling much better and decided against the surgery. Not only was I feeling better but started my nursing program a month later. Between my studies, working in a hospital where I was lifting patients and doing my other activities I could not believe how good I felt. I am now starting my second year of my nursing program and feel great."
