Chiropractic Patient Testimonials

Migraine headache relief.

When I started coming to Innate Specific Chiropractic I had had a migraine headache nearly every day for 9 months. I also had shoulder pain, under my shoulder blades, and severe hip, back and sciatica.I first came on a Monday on which day I had a headache, and then Tuesday I still had the headache. I was on three different kinds of medications, plus a preventative for these, because if one didn’t work, I would try the next. On Wednesday, I came for my second adjustment and had no headache that day! I had none until the following Tuesday, when a very stressful situation arose at work. Again, when I came for my adjustment on Wednesday it went away. I have had only one more headache since then, again over a stressful situation, which an adjustment took care of. Only four headaches in almost two months after nine months of continuous suffering, my husband, and I, consider this a miracle! Thank You!

Chiropractic adjustments changed my day-to-day life.

Today marks my 7th visit with Dr. Iulianelli. I had migraines for about 10 years. I now know what it feels like to live on a day to day basis without a migraine. Even under stress, migraines now remain silent. Chiropractic care simply works!! Chiropractic adjustments have completely changed my day to day life. If you think this is risky, I strongly suggest you throw caution to the wind and take the risk, I did. I can now enjoy my 10 month old daughter migraine free!! (And she enjoys my extra energy!)).

Dr. Frank has made my life pain-free.

I have been coming to Dr. Frank for 1 ½ years. I was quite skeptical at first (we’ve all heard stories before). My sister, who has a chronic illness, had been coming for over a year and suggested I come with her. She has had such great success, I said yes. I had been suffering for quite some time with migraine headaches, and stiff neck with shooting pain down my left arm and right leg. After my initial exam and x-rays, it showed bone spurs and of course my neck was out of alignment. Within a few weeks of coming my headaches all but stopped and I was beginning to have more range with turning my neck. I hadn’t realized how bad of shape I really was in. At this point, I am free of the headaches and the shooting pains are gone. I feel great. If I do get a headache I know it’s time to come in for an adjustment. I highly recommend for anyone to come in who is in pain. No one should suffer. And the great thing about the adjustments, they are pain free. No need to be afraid. Thanks Dr. Frank. You’ve made my life pain-free.

I can finally play sports again.

I’m in the 9th grade and I’m 15 years old. I’ve had back problems since the 7th grade. I’ve been going to the chiropractor for only a month and my back has been feeling so much better. I can finally play sports again. My back used to bother me so bad that I couldn’t even sit in class for more than 15 minutes. Now I can run, play football, lacrosse, and all of the other activities I couldn’t do before I started chiropractic care. Now I can get back into shape and have a healthy pain-free life.

Each day I have less pain.

On March 24, 2008, I found out how important my back is by not being able to walk, sit comfortably or even lay down without pain. That’s the day my husband drove me to Innate Specific Chiropractic. He had to help be every step of the way as I was in extreme pain and bent at the waist, IN MY ROBE. (How embarrassing.) After 5 visits with Dr. Frank, I was able to drive myself to the office.It is amazing how the treatments have helped me. Each day I move a little better, have less pain, and smile a lot more! I’m looking forward to the day when I can say…”I’m going for a long walk”.

My mobility has improved dramatically.

When I came to this office I was at the end of my rope – so far as pain and mobility was concerned. I had injured my neck and shoulder some time ago and had made up my mind that chronic pain was something I would just have to live with. Then I fell and injured my lower back and things spiraled downward from there to where I was for all intent and purposes immobilized. It’s been approximately 3 ½ months since I began treatment here and although I am not back to 100%, the pain and my mobility have improved dramatically. The treatment I receive has been thorough and any and all questions and concerns have been promptly and professionally addressed. I feel I have some way to go yet, but that I am on the road to full recovery and this is owed to the treatment I have received at Innate Specific Chiropractic.

I was able to return to work as a professional golfer.

In 1993 I started to have neck and back pain. By 1994 the pain was so severe that surgery was performed on my low back. This allowed me to be pain free for 3 years before the pain returned. From 1997-2001, I either visited or talked to doctors from the Cleveland Clinic, Mayo Clinic, Texas Back Clinic and Florida Spine Clinic. There were also countless visits to specialists all through the country. The opinions that what was wrong with my back were varied. By April 2002, my life and job were limited and most of my time was spent in bed. This is when I heard of Dr. Frank Iulianelli and started treatment in his office. Within a few weeks my pain was gone and I was able to return to work as a professional golfer. In the past 16 months, I am not only pain free but also I have played some of the best golf of my life. My practice sessions can go on for hours, travel on long flights is easy and my strength is increasing daily. In short, people that have known me over the years cannot believe what I have accomplished after seeing me in pain for so long. Dr. Iulianelli and the Kale method of treatment is without a doubt the cure for what ails most people.

I get fewer stomach aches.

I’m 11 years old and I started coming here in November 2007 of sharp stomach pains. It started with me coming home from school in the middle of the day and ended with me not going to school for 5 months. I started coming to Innate in December and it helped a lot. My stomach aches started getting fewer and fewer. I had more and more good days and now I can even tell when I need to be adjusted. Toward the end of the school year, I was back to school for 5 hours – a full day minus band and lunch. Dr. Frank has been encouraging.

I have my life back.

I started coming to Dr. Frank because of FIBROMYALGIA. If you have fibromyalgia, you know how devastating it can be. Your days are no longer dictated by your to-do list, but by whether or not you’ll be able to get through a whole day. You’re in your own painful private hell. I’ve had fibromyalgia for 4 years; two of the years were spent trying to figure out what was happening to me, and the other two were spent trying to get well. By the time I found Dr. Frank, I was taking seven different kinds of medicines, the maximum dosage of most of them. I had spent thousands of dollars on things to help me out of my pain and read everything I could read to try to understand it. I knew I needed to get off the drugs, all they were doing were treating the symptoms and what relief I was getting was traded for unbelievable side effects. When I heard about ‘Specific Chiropractic Care’ I was anxious to give it a try. I believe the body has the innate ability to heal itself. Dr. Frank’s adjustment would put my neck back into alignment so my body could go to work to heal itself. The results were phenomenal!!!! Within 2 months, I was sleeping well, had no painful trigger points, none!!! I could do a whole day and get up the next day and do it again! If you have fibromyalgia – you know what I mean! I am off all my meds and away from those side effects. I have my life back.If you think there is no way of getting away from your pain, I suggest you try this. Be patient with the healing process, it will take you through many new types of pain, but when it’s over you will be like me, pain free and leading a normal life again.

I have noticed a great improvement.

I had pain in my right ear and could not rotate my head to the right without pain. Also, I was experiencing numbness in my right hand. Within the first two weeks of treatment, the symptoms began to disappear. Now I am going through the healing phases, feeling various pains all over my body. But overall I have noticed a great improvement. Every now and then, I feel cracks and pops as my spine realigns. They are good feelings.

I have virtually no neck pain now.

I started approximately 18 months ago, with severe neck pain, which caused restless sleep and a discomfort that was more than a little inconvenient. Over time, and persistence on the front office part, being treated consistently, I have virtually no neck pain now. A surprise side benefit – I have a blood disorder that has diminished greatly over the time I have been treated here by Dr. Iulianelli at Innate. A coincidence – maybe, but the parallel of wellness since is welcomed.

Spinal Decompression Patient Testimonials

My success story with Spinal Decompression!

I really don’t know where to start because I’m so excited about not going for surgery. I was scheduled for surgery March 4, 2010. My mom and sisters didn’t want that again for me, since I had cervical fusion a few years earlier. So I agreed to try one last thing before I went under the knife.

I have to say, years and years of pain and also - physical therapy – needle point injections – pain shots in the spine - and many other procedures, I was doubtful about this Spinal Decompression. But to satisfy my family I thought what the heck. It sure wouldn’t hurt. So I tried it.

After 7 treatments, I’m sure telling a difference. I’m more energetic and wanting to do so much but I have to be patient. If I feel this way now I can just imagine how I will feel after 20 treatments. I will be unstoppable.

Now, I’m so hopeful for such a wonderful future with being able to go on hikes with my grandchildren and all other activities. I can hardly wait. I want to thank God for giving someone the knowledge to make this machine and Dr. Frank for purchasing this machine to help care for people. Anyone going through what I was going through, first try this before the knife. Love you Dr. Frank. May God bless you.

I feel like a miracle took place.

I had been living with sciatic pain for over two years. Gradually it got to the point where the pain was so bad that I could not sit, drive or even dress myself without pain. I tried physical therapy and that helped a little, but afterword, the pain was worse than ever. Eventually, with advice from a family member, I came to see Dr. Iulianelli and try decompression. Therapy itself was actually very pleasant and I could feel changes immediately as I was on the machine. In just 20 treatments I feel like a miracle took place. I experience no pain now. My husband is happy to have his old wife back and my children are pleased that mom can do so much more. I am very excited.

I'm very impressed with my progress.

I was tired of the pain, sleep loss and offers of prescription meds to numb my life. I’ve had the steroid injections, repeat injections, rhizotomy, disc decompression surgery, physical therapy and none have given me the relief of the DRX9000 at Innate Specific Chiropractic. My sleep pattern has changed significantly for the better and I find myself doing activities almost without pain. I’m very impressed. This is NOT just traction like you might find with traditional physical therapy. You can actually feel how this machine is working, as though it is allowing your back to breathe again! I’m 53 years old and not willing to give up riding my Harley, playing softball, kickball or whatever else I want to do…including routine chores at home. I’m very impressed with my progress and I would recommend this procedure to anyone who qualifies.

I am pain-free.

Before I came to Innate Specific Chiropractic my pain in my lower back and right leg was bad. I have a herniated/bulging disc at L4-5 and L3-4. My right leg was losing strength and at times I couldn’t even walk on it. The pain in both my back and leg would never go away. I had 3 epidural injections and physical therapy. At P.T. I did exercises and traction. Neither of these were working, not even the injections. Then I found Dr. Frank Iulianelli and came for a consultation. Now after 20 visits on the Spinal Decompression machine and continuing my exercises at home, I am pain free and my leg is back to normal! Thank you for helping me get my life back!

- Jennifer D

I am very pleased with my results.

This is a letter I never expected to write. When I began my treatments on the spinal decompression machine, I was very skeptical – but hopeful. Now two weeks after the final visit, I am almost totally pain free. I am very pleased with my results. If I know of anyone with this same problem, I will tell them about you.Thanks you for your help.

My back doesn't ache after a long day of work.

I have a lawn maintenance company, so I am constantly putting stress on my back. I have had back problems for 30+ years. For the past 10 years I have also seal-coated my driveway and my back usually aches the next day from bending over for 3½ hours. But this past winter the pain finally got to the point that I had to do something about it. Dr. Iulianelli suggested I try Spinal Decompression. I completed Spinal Decompression the beginning of April – before I began my work season. Even after I was done with my treatment, I still wasn’t convinced that it worked, but Dr. Iulianelli told me that I would continue to heal over the next year. I am happy to say that it DID work. Now, 5 months after I finished my treatment, I am convinced. My back doesn’t ache after a hard day of work. I haven’t felt pain in a long time. When pain comes, you notice it. But when it goes away gradually, you don’t realize it until you do something that you know should have caused pain (because it used to) – but NOW there’s no pain.

I can now live my active lifestyle.

After a fall snowboarding (I’m 57), I started having sciatic type pain. After 1 ½ months I knew I had to do something. After only one treatment (the first of 20) I had no pain! My x-rays were a shock to me also. I believe this program will get me back to better ‘back health’ and allow me to continue my active lifestyle well into old age (57 ain’t old!).

I have almost zero pain in my legs.

I am glad to share my experience and story with those having pain in their back. After my first surgery (lower back disc herniation), I was free from pain for about one year. But slowly the pain started growing again and put me in the situation of another back surgery. I wasn’t able to walk more than 5 minutes and had to lay down at home most of the day. It was my friend who recommended that I see Dr. Iulianelli with a great story of himself completely recovered from his back pain after being treated by Dr. Iulianelli. First I had Corrective Care and then moved to the next step which was Spinal Decompression. At present, I have almost “0” pain in my legs and minor pain in my back. I drove 70 miles every day from Novi to get the treatment. Was it worth it? You bet!!!!! For those who think, as I did, “nothing to lose” …try something new, and you will get confidence day by day while treatments are implemented. Try it and feel it!!!
