I was having a problem with my back. Besides a nerve was pinched causing a pain down the side of my right leg and my feet were becoming numb. I felt so uncomfortable that I was beginning to be round shouldered.
A friend suggested that I see Dr. Miller. I did and was amazed to find that after my first visit I already felt much better. I could stand up straighter and even looked taller. After several treatments the pain in my leg began to leave and my feet felt much better. I continue going back every three or four weeks and have not felt so good in years.
Incidentally I'm 93 years old.

Ever since I was a small boy, I always enjoyed an active life-style: baseball, basketball, football, handball, tennis, sailing, and more. However, as I entered my 40's, some of the typical maladies associated with aging ( in my case: lower back problems, sciatica, and achalasia ) took their toll. By the age 50, I was reduced to being a couch potato and some days I couldn't even get out of bed. I progressed through the standard sequence of remedies offered by traditional medicine to no available and was about to commit to major back surgery.
Before I submitted to this drastic, invasive, and costly last - chance operation, I decided to expand my options by considering chiropractic medicine. After only three weeks of chirorpractic treatment, I experienced significant improvement. After three months, I felt great and was able to resume all the activities I had enjoyed back when I was 40.  I have since maintained this level of physical condition by receiving periodic chiropractic treatment from Dr. Berry. Today, I'm 72 years old, feeling terrific, and still playing baseball - and we're talking hardball, not softball !

Following several months of some major life stress, my body was one big pain. From head to toe there wasn't one place that didn't hurt. I was in and out of labs, doctor's offices and the consensus was always the same: "You have degenerative arthritis, see your primary care doctor for pain management."  I hate to take medication and the future looks dim to say the least.  I was limping badly, unable to sleep more than an hour or so at a time, walking, sitting and standing were all extremely painful. In addition, my blood pressure was up and, because I had been unable to do regular walking or other daily exercise, my cholesterol increased dramatically.
Then, a friend recommended La Costa Chiropractic. I started treatment towards the end of August and by Mid-September my gait had measurably improved and I was beginning to feel so much better. By the end of September I was out walking everyday with less pain, my cholesterol came down considerably, and my blood pressure could be compared with that of any healthy 20-year-old!  I am still under treatment with Dr. Berry but visits are decreasing and in a few weeks I should be on a maintenance program. I can only say,  "Thank You!"  Your care, concern and effective treatments have given me back my life, which had been on hold for so long, and the light at the end of the tunnel is becoming brighter every day.
I love your office and the website is great too!                  Patricia B.

I am 88 years young and love to dance. A month ago I developed intense pain in my right upper thigh. Dr. Miller has me dancing again and walking a mile a day, pain free after a month's treatment. He is one great healer!

I sought Chiro Care at the suggestion of several good friends more than a year ago. I would say my back problems are advanced or severe. They include scoliosis, a bit of osteoporosis, some arthritis and stenosis.
Last summer I was expecting my first grandchild. I was so uncomfortable that I can remember saying I just want to live to see this baby and than just "Go Home" (My way of saying DIE!! Home being Heaven). I could not imagine living the rest of my life with what I assumed would be increasing pain. Then, Dr Kline came into my life. It's been about ten months since that thought and I can now walk a mile and a half fairly comfortably. I spent last week with the seven month old grandchlId, crawling on the floor, lifting her, carrying her and just doing normal every day things. I paused to think WOW, I'm acting like a normal person!! It's a wonderful feeling!! My guess is I will continue with Chiropractic care for the rest of my life and of course, would highly recommend it to everyone!! My back will never be perfect, I know that. But with his recommendations for stretching, diet etc, if I don't push to the limit I have very comfortable, tolerable days.

I started chiropractic because of bad posture from injuries, along with chronic neck and lower back pain. My advice to others is to make an appt. with Dr. Kline, because he rocks!  My pain is slowly diminishing and my posture, flexibility, and range of movement have increased. I can't say how long I will continue chiropractic care - possibly for the rest of my life.  Dr. Kline is my 3rd chiropractor, and the fIrst who really knows what he is doing, not only on an intellectual level, but on an intuitive level where it really counts!

* What initially brought you to our office?
I started treatment with LaCosta Chiropractic in August 2004 when I moved to California from Indiana. I initially started chiropractic in Indiana back in the 80?s for migraine headaches. The particular day I had my first treatment I had been suffering with a migraine for 7 days and was pretty miserable to say the least. After the second treatment the headache was gone and I have not had a migraine since. I continue chiropractic treatment to be my best.
 
* What other methods of treatment, if any, did you try before coming to chiropractic?  
Prescription pills and shots, therapy.  
 
* In what way(s) has chiropractic helped you?  
1. I no longer suffer from migraine headaches.
2. I go to the doctor annually for my physical but rarely go any other time. 
3. My 2nd child was breach and I sought chiropractic care before delivery. I delivered a healthy 8lb. 5 oz. baby girl naturally without complications.
4. I had a hysterectomy in 1984. After surgery, my feet were constantly cold. I could not go barefoot even around the house. I wore socks to bed! Chiropractic care restored normal circulation.
5. Due to a faulty mitral valve I had heart surgery. Because of chiropractic, I had a remarkable quick recovery.
6. I enjoy fewer incidences of allergies and asthma.
