Here are some words from our Practice Members!

"1 1/2 years ago my autistic son and I were rear-ended in a car accident. We came to see Dr. Sarah [at AAC Family Wellness Centers] and were so improved in such a short time we started bringing the whole family - just ask about [AAC's] family plan!

My 12 year old, long incapacitated by allergies, is now virtually drug-free during her worst seasons. My autistic son has seen remarkable improvements in both his sensory issues and behavioral manifestations of his disability, even his communication skills and mental processing have improved.

The benefits of health care in this forum have surpassed anything we have seen from more traditional medical care!"

"Let me start by saying thank you for giving me a healthy life back.  This may sound dramatic but I mean it.  For the past few years I have been under severe medical problems, open heart surgery (mitral valve replacement) and spinal surgery for a slipped disc (2008).  The spinal surgery pre and the post operation left me with horrific pain for four months.  Gradually I did start to get better.  It was a fight all the way, making one small step at a time.

This history is important because I am an active person and did not like to be sedentary as I was.  I enjoy working out at the gym and am a distance biker.  Not being able to do these activities made me frustrated and angry.  This past Spring I felt some discomfort in my lower and middle back.  I was so afraid this would lead to being inactive again.  I may have had to curtail my biking and I did not want to do that.

I decided to try chiropractic manipulation.  Boy, did I get lucky.  Going to AAC Family Wellness Center has changed my life.  Not only did Dr. Sarah find the problems by, greatly helped by eliminating any pain/discomfort I had.  The evening sessions [wellness modules] taught me about nutrition, exercise and healthy attitude.  Since going to AAC I have lost 15 pounds, lowered my cholesterol and diabetes numbers.

Most important, I have been taken off some of the pills I was taking “to be healthy.”  I now have biked 200 miles during July and 300 miles in August without pain.  This sport gives me the challenge to keep my body in shape.  Thank you all so much for giving me the opportunity to live a good life and I am not too old to begin again at 70."

"When my son was 2 yrs old my husband and I decided to try for a second child.  We had tried for a few months with no success.  I consulted my doctor and learned that I had endometriosis & ovarian cysts, which would rupture.  I was in terrible pain all the time & on many pain medications, which made it hard for me to function on a daily basis.  I decided to have surgery to remove some of the endometriosis, which was not my first choice, but at the time my only choice.  The other option my doctor urged me to do was get pregnant but due to the dysfunction of my ovaries, I was unable to release mature eggs.  I was at this point told after a year and a half that the only way I would ever have another child would be to go on fertility drugs. I was unwilling to chance the drugs & possible complications & multiple babies.  As heart breaking as it was, I finally came to terms with the fact that another baby was not in my cards.  God had decided that I would at least be blessed with one healthy child, my son Nathan.  In March 2002 I was offered a job at AAC & began my care as a patient as well.  Chiropractic helped me with many issues that I had dealt with my entire life, but nothing can ever explain my feelings of gratefulness, when 6 months later of chiropractic care I was pregnant.  I had a very healthy pregnancy and was so happy to have my baby girl Brooke Madison.  Now she will be 6 years old this year and I am eternally grateful to Dr. Q and Dr. D for my chiropractic miracle!!"

 "Chiropractic to me means 'Healing from the inside out!' You have to feel good inside to feel good on the outside.  Physically and Mentally. My sons and I have been coming for approximatly 6 months, and I know that we all feel healthier both physically and mentally. This was probably the most important thing I have ever done in my life and in my children's life."

         "To me, Chiropractic means relief from physical pain and discomfort which, until I sought Chiropractic help, was constant, and sencondly, relief in the fact that I now feel healthier.  Regular Chiropractic care has improved my overall well being and improved my outlook towards seeking a healthier lifestyle by considering an alternate method of care-Chiropractic Care- instead of care from a bottle of Naprosen, Motrin or Advil for the 'temporary' relief of pain prescribed by my general practitioner.

          "I no longer rely on medical care from a bottle because Chiropractic care has enabled me to work and sit without the discomfort I always had previously.  I am able to enjoy life to the fullest because I feel better both mentally and physically.  This is what Chiropractic really means to me!!"

"I have been involved in the study of holistic healing for over 30 years.  I've learned there are three components which must be addressed in order to achieve optimum health.   They are as follows: 1- emotional, 2- chemical, and 3- the physical or structural aspect of health.  When addressing the structural side of the health triangle, there is no better way than through wellness chiropractic adjustemnts.  These adjustment allow the nervous system or 'innate intelligence' to function as was intended by God.  Some things I have noticed since beginning chiropractic adjustments are: increased energy, better mood and outlook, increased flexibility and mobility, a decrease in seasonal allergies, and greater overall sense of well being.  Regardless of your elvel of health, you can and will benefit from chiropractic adjustments.  There is no better investment than an investment in your good health. Thank you Adirondack Advanced Chiropractic!"

"I used to have verybad migranes.  Now I have less and they aren't as bad."

"I tore all the muscles in my lower back when I was 19; the doctor who treated me predicted that I would be in a wheelchair by the time I was 30 years old.  When I was 32, the pain had become intolerable and teh doctor had started talking surgery.  Although I had been raised to believe Chiropractors were 1 step below 'witch doctors' , I decided I would prefer to take my chances there than under the knife.  That was 30+ years ago and I have never regretted my decision."

"By coming to the Chiropractor I am now able to walk better, breathe better, and enjoy my job and family time much better, I am so thankful for the Chiropractors as Adirondack Advanced Chiropractic.  My life is much more enjoyable and so much less painful. I know that god has the part in the healing of the body.  I am very happy that I found this Chiropractor."

"We’re a really busy family, with the kids involved in travel baseball and competitive dance. We work, run a side business and try to be active in our church. After years of going all out, we started noticing frequent neck and back pain. Cate had pretty severe sciatica after her last pregnancy. We found AAC though Dr. Q’s blot on Saratoga.com and got started. We expected to learn that we needed lots of adjustments, but were shocked to discover how subluxated the kids spines were. After just two months, we have seen amazing results! All our symptoms have eased our disappeared altogether. We all have more energy, think more clearly and sleep better. The kids are convinced they’ll be able to compete at higher levels. Best of all we enjoy seeing all the smiling faces are AAC every time we visit!"

"1st of all, your office & all of you folks are just tremendous! All the exercises you've told me to do actually work! I've noticed tremendous results. In fact I feel "De-subluxated" and that's a good thing. I've been to other chiropractors before, years ago, but none can compare to AAC! Coming into this office I had two herniated discs & spinal stenosis. AAC found arthritis in my lower back, and neck. I never thought that I had neck problem. But after 1 short month of treatment my necks range of motion was so good I felt that I could turn my head around like an owl! Totally awesome! Oh, one more item, I had "sciatica" in both legs & after one month that pain was totally eliminated and has never returned! Yea, yea!"
