I received the greatest compliment from one of our patients recently and I thought I would share it. If this statement helps another person find relief without surgery then it is worth it. Thank you Shirley for allowing us to share this.
"If a surgeon has recommended surgery for you then Dr. Poole is the one to see before you make that final decision to go under the knife. I was told I needed surgery to correct a herniated disc (cervical) but instead researched other therapies and found Dr. Poole on the The Pettibon System website as one of their intensively trained providers. I followed Dr. Poole's medical advice of regular office visits with spinal decompression therapy to loosen the neck bones. Also, we used specialized head weights to strengthen the neck muscles. At his strong advice I have continued my daily home neck exercises. Within a few short weeks I could feel the improvement from the pain and numbness. Now, a year later my neck is close to complete healing. My symptoms are gone and my xrays look great (and xrays don't lie!) so give it a go and let Dr. Poole assist you in your road to recovery. He da man!!!"
