People generally think of chiropractors when a car injury has lead to whiplash. But there are various causes for neck pain, and Dr. Altman can provide relief for just about all of them! Luckily, he also understands that if you have never been to a chiropractor before, the idea of someone twisting and turning an already sore neck can be really scary and intimidating. So the Doc will orient to help them understand what he is what is about to do and why it helps. With his good sense of humor and gentle touch, he has a real talent for helping patients in acute pain. At least that’s what his patients say:
Back Pain & Injuries
Like all chiropractors, Dr. Altman studied the human spine extensively. For this reason, many patients come to him with back pains. The Doc takes a compassionate and consistent approach to alleviating the pain and then fixing the cause of this pain. One of the things that sets him apart from many colleagues, is that he believes he has a moral obligation teach patients how to maintain their health post-treatment. Keeping you out of his office doesn’t always make business sense, but it is the right thing to do! According to Garen, here is how the Doc helped him feel good again:
Derek’s Story
I have visited Dr. Altman several times for shoulder dislocations. I am a big outdoor enthusiast. I work at rock climbing gym and I also climb on my free time so my shoulder has to be in top condition. Like climbing I also ride bmx so that also requires my shoulder to be in good shape. Basically everything I do I need my shoulders to be in tip top shape and when they dislocate I go to Dr. Altman without even thinking twice. He always gets the shoulder to relocate first visit and with his exercises i am back to riding, climbing, turning wrenches on cars. I highly recommend Dr. Altman for any type of work that you need done.
Alexa’s Story
I’ve gone to many chiropractors over the course of my life. I’ve gotten whiplash three times – I think a magical “hit me” sign appears behind every car I ride in! Now I have fibromyalgia, which some experts say may be triggered by the accidents. This condition has so many complications that I blame any aches and pains I get on it. Over the years, I’ve gone to 8 or 9 chiropractors (we move a lot). Dr. Altman is one of the very best.
