BACK PAIN

My experience at Charles Street Family Chiropractic has been terrific!  Quite frankly, I thought I would live forever with low back pain.  After seeing Dr. Quigley, I am now pain free for 90% of my life.  I can't describe in words the feeling of waking up in the morning and not have low back pain.  Dr. Quigley has made my quality of life significantly better.

                                                                        --David Browne

A creaky neck, stiff jaw and a sore lower back, troubled me enough to have to give up a day of sailing because it meant a long period of sitting.  After visiting Dr. Quigley I have much more energy, less soreness and I generally feel much better!

                                                                        --Ellen Petro

I had extreme lower back pain.  It made it hard to get out of bed, and it made daily activities difficult.  My back pain now is minimal compared to the degree at the onset.  Once again, I am able to go about my daily routine without the extreme stress to my lower back.

                                                                        --Keith Hanson

One day I twisted my back, which did not cause me any pain for a few days, but later started a huge problem.  I could barely walk to the office on my own to get help, but I'm glad I did!  Today I have no discomfort whatsoever.  I have stayed with my treatment schedule and have recovered fully. 

                                                                        --Shinichi Hagashibaba

The pain in my low back subsided quickly.  Coming in for weekly adjustments has made me more conscious of movements with my back and neck area.  Overall, I feel much better, pain free in my back and leg.  The weekly adjustments are a wonderful way to keep healthy.

                                                                        Claudia Corra

At Charles Street Family Chiropractic, they helped me to understand what was wrong as well as fix the problem.  Since I have been coming for chiropractic care, I have seen a great difference in my sleep patterns.  I am sleeping deeper and for longer periods of time.

BACK & NECK PAIN

I have had chronic neck and back pain for almost 3 years and it was getting worse.  I saw therapists, Ortho's and nobody could help me.  In the first few weeks of getting adjusted, I have already noticed a difference.  In the past I have found it almost impossible to find any relief, but finally Dr. Quigley has given me some hope, in this long never ending quest of pain relief.

                                                                        --Jon Sylvester

In a short 3 weeks my pain has practically disappeared.  I was very skeptical-I'm amazed!!!

                                                                        --Julie Levesque

Approximately one month into my activities with this office, I can make it through an entire week of computer sitting and studying without the pain and stiffness.  Something is certainly happening to decrease pain and increase smiles.

NECK PAIN

I had severe neck pain and could hardly move my neck.  I now have nearly no neck pain at all and I am able to once again move my neck.  My energy level has increased and I am feeling better than I have in years.  I am glad this happened because I have learned that chiropractic care is a part of every day optimal well being.  Even when you think you feel great, there is no time not to make a visit.

                                                                        --Kristin Smith

I have had a very good experience.  I’ve experienced far less back pain, sciatic pain or neck pain this past year than I have had in the past 4-5 years.  I move a lot of furniture every week in my line of work.

                                                                        Rebecca Connoly

A pinch in my neck was not allowing normal movement and was causing very painful headaches, neck aches and back pain.  My experience at Charles Street has been very good.  I have been educated about how important it is to maintain a healthy spine.  Sometimes it's crucial to seek the opinion of a chiropractor when symptoms aren't what you think.

HEADACHES

I no longer get headaches.  I am able to fall asleep as soon as I lay down.  I can concentrate at work and never have to stay home because my neck hurts or my head is throbbing.  I look forward to coming in and getting healthy with no nasty medicine. 

                                                                        Katie Fryman

In the past 8 weeks my headaches have vanished and I feel much less tired at the end of each day when I head home for my second job, being a father (and husband, too)!

                                                                        Jamie Cornell

I got frequent headaches behind my eyes.  I now feel very good.  I've felt much better since being treated by the doctors here.  I no longer have to wake up everyday wondering when my headaches will go away.

                                                                        --Kelly Ford

My headaches were so bad I thought I had a brain tumor.  I tried everything including several prescription medications.  This was my last resort.  The adjustments were like magic.  The headaches stopped, but I will continue with Dr. Quigley.  It's made a complete change in me.  When you feel good it makes life a lot more pleasant, for you and the people close to you.  Thanks to Dr. Quigley and his super staff.

MIGRAINES

I had chronic neck pain and migraine headaches.  I had tried everything including dietary changes, exercise, medication and acupuncture, but the problem always came back.  At first I thought it was a coincidence that I felt so much better.  My spine and neck are pain free and my chronic headaches are short lived and infrequent.  Dr. Quigley is great--his calm and confident manner is contagious!!

                                                                        --Megan McCarrens

My first two months of adjustments have brought definite results.  This period of treatment coincided with the stressful job of relocating an elderly parent.  Ordinarily I would have had a migraine every other day, but with Dr. Chris' cervical adjustments, I have not had a single headache.  My mind seems more focused, energy level higher as well as rate of accomplishment--my "To Do" list is always finished by the end of the day.

                                                                        --Mary Jo Tecce

I was having severe and frequent migraine headaches.  Since being under chiropractic care, my migraines are few and far between and also less painful.  It has influenced my life and health in that I feel better about myself and strongly believe in the importance of chiropractic as an integral part of living a long, healthy and happy life.  It just makes sense!!

ARTHRITIS

As a last resort, I was tired of taking prescription drugs for my arthritis (20 years of medication).  I was unable to bend and tie my sneakers or put on pantyhose.  I now no longer take medication.  I still have arthritis but I am back to being physically active-I do step aerobics, swimming and yoga.  Dr. Quigley has helped me get control of my physical well-being.

                                                                        --Maureen McClelland

My hands were starting to go numb and I was worried about my arthritis that occasionally acted up and had been steadily worsening through the years.  After my first adjustment, the feeling started to return to my hands and after a year of care, I haven't felt any numbness and I rarely notice the arthritis.  What an improvement!

                                                                        --Peter Escobar

ALLERGIES

I have been under chiropractic care for 6 weeks.  Just recently, I went to a friend’s house where a cat was present and heavy smoking was taking place.  Usually this would be the kiss of death and my allergies and asthma would have been in full force.  I spent five hours among cat hair and smoke w/o a sneeze or shortness of breath, yah!  I’m so excited.    

                                                                        Rochelle Riggi

Since I have been getting adjusted regularly, I have noticed that my allergies have improved greatly.  I still work in the same building with poor air, but I am healthier than I have ever been!

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

I came to Charles Street Family Chiropractic for back pain and headaches, not to mention having high blood pressure for most of my life.  After my visits, I have much less back pain and the medication for my high blood pressure has been cut in half.

                                                                        --Dennis Armillatti

POSTURE

I had very bad posture.  I could not walk straight and I was always tired.  After my adjustments my posture has improved and I am walking straighter.  I feel great and I have a lot more energy!

                                                                        --William Shaer

I knew chiropractic would be good for my general well being and my posture, but an injury made me take the step to begin the program.  I'm so much better in a short time!  I am much more aware of the simple ways that I can make a change in how I feel.  The care I have had is terrific.

                                                                        --Sheryl Dyer

I am more alert, from better functioning of nerves and better posture.  I don't suffer from chronic neck and back pain and I control stress in my body much more effectively.

IMPROVED PERFORMANCE

I love it here- I’ve searched for a very long time for to find a chiropractor to replace the one I was seeing during H.S.  I have finally found one that gives me the care I expect.  Since I have been coming here, I’ve had much more energy, I’ve been more productive with my time, I’ve felt happy and easy going, and all around more content with life.  This is the cure I may be looking for with my overall health. 

                                                                        Summer Barkosikie

After three sessions, I do not have as much tension in my back and I have more energy.  I look forward to coming every time, even early on Saturday morning

Susan Hanna

After my adjustments at Charles Street Family Chiropractic, I have little to no pain.  My energy level is extremely high, I have no problems falling asleep and I am less anxious.  People around me notice a big difference in my attitude and energy level and want to know if I changed my diet or if I am working out.  I tell them about Dr. Quigley.

                                                                        --Liz Armellino

Charles Street Family Chiropractic has been both professional and caring; efficient and empathetic.  I have more energy during the day and I sleep more deeply at night.

                                                                        --G.B. Baber

I went to see the most highly recommended orthopedists and neurologists that I could find, and the only solution I was given was surgery to repair a bulging disc.  I was told to stop working out in karate, the only exercise that I really enjoy.  Physical therapy didn't help and so I tried chiropractic.  After Dr. Quigley's first adjustment, I felt what it was like to stand up straight for the first time in my life.  When I don't take care of myself through healthy diet and exercise, I still occasionally suffer from back pain, but otherwise chiropractic improved my quality of life immensely!

                                                                        --Heather Kirkman

My experience here at Charles Street Family Chiropractic has been a great one.  I can now wake up in the morning and not feel like I've been crippled.  Dr. Quigley has helped me through some rough times.  After playing in a hockey game I could barely walk due to severe pain.  I came to Dr. Quigley and hoped for a miracle so I could play in the championship game that night.  I walked out of the office a new man.  Needless to say, I played in the championship game that night and got the winning assist.  My team and I give great thanks to Dr. Quigley!

                                                                        --Zack Apgar

I used to have middle back pain, especially after walking long distances.  After a walk from Beacon Hill to  Copley and back, I would have to rest.  After 3 weeks of visits, I voluntarily went on a hike in the  Walden Woods--It felt great!  The swing plane of my golf swing has also improved; I'm making the best contact I ever have.  My putting, however, has not improved.

                                                                        --Jake Pultorak

My experience with chiropractic care has been very beneficial.  I am no longer feeling any of my back pain.  I have received great care by Dr. Chris.  His suggestions of exercise, meditation and good eating habits have helped me with a healthier life.  It just makes you feel better about yourself!

                                                                        --Nancy Cioto

Everyone has been exceptionally professional and personable.  With their insistence and expert guidance I have regained most of my physical ability and continue to get healthier everyday.  For the first time in over four years, I can golf and jog again, that should say it all.

NUMBNESS IN WRISTS & FINGERS:

The chiropractic care I received appears to have eliminated the numbness in my arms, and I was able to resume my normal work schedule.

PAIN RELIEF DURING PREGNANCY

I could barely move my neck all the way left and right; my upper right back was causing me pain, along with my chronic low back pain which was exacerbated by pregnancy.  After my adjustments I can normally move my neck and rotate it completely, which is helpful especially when driving.  I no longer have increased pain when it rains and I can walk and move without pain as my weight increases with my pregnancy.

                                                                        --Tracy Larussa

CHRONIC FATIGUE

I had constant pain in my upper back and neck, along with headaches and chronic fatigue.  The pain stopped in two days, sleeping is much better, and "everyday functions" are almost back to normal.  Overall feeling pretty good!

CROHN'S DISEASE

I have Crohn's disease and normally have 2 or 3 flare-ups a year.  I started to see Dr. Quigley in January and had regular appointments until March.  My stomach never felt better.  I eat well and have no pain.  Then, due to my schedule, I wasn't able to come in on a regular basis, and in April I had a flare up.  I learned my lesson.

FIBROMYALGIA

Before I came to Charles Street Family Chiropractic, I had an overdose of Motrin and thought I was going to die.  Since I have been getting adjusted regularly, I have more energy, get more sleep, and have been off pain killers for approximately 6 months.  I feel better, I am more mobile, and I am in much less pain.  I have modified my lifestyle to fit my needs.  I now feel wonderful and full of spirit.  Thanks to chiropractic.

SCIATICA

For approximately 1 and 1/2 weeks I was experiencing constant back pain with radiation down my right leg.  My experience with Dr. Quigley has been extremely positive.  I am feeling 100% better, mentally and physically.

                                                                        --Suzanne MacKay

I had hurt my lower back at the end of summer.  The pain would be severe in the morning and would start at the left side of my spine and would travel down into my left leg.  Already after 2-3 weeks, the pain is almost gone.  The pain that used to travel down my leg is now completely gone and I feel great!

                                                                        --Paul Bouchard

DEPRESSION

I couldn't stand the pain and the stiffness I was experiencing.  Many years of me being uncomfortable came to an end the day I met Dr. Quigley.  I feel good mentally and physically.  Depression can be a bad influence on your life and health.  Dr. Quigley has helped lift any depression I was having.

                                                                        --KathleenVecchione

My medications to help with migraine headaches had been increasing through the years and I kept thinking, if I have to take this many drugs now at 28, what will I be like when I'm 50?  Chiropractic was the only help I could find.  In addition, I found that I stopped suffering from the depression that had plagued me throughout my life.  The only thing that had changed in my life was chiropractic.  Thanks chiropractic!

CHILDREN

My son has had chronic ear infections (14 in one year); our medical doctor placed him on antibiotics (daily).  Since he has been getting adjusted he has not had any ear infections and has stopped the daily antibiotic treatment.  His over all health has improved and the frequency of his stomach viruses has also improved (8 last season).

                                                                        --Tracy Larussa

My son Derek wet his bed at nights.  After a few visits to Charles Street Family Chiropractic, Derek is dry through the nights.  We don't have to wake him up any more.
