Dr. David Smith
Now I can bend over
"The biggest thing I have noted is in the mornings. Now I can bend over and tie my shoelaces, something which had been very difficult. Morning chores are done in half the time & backing the car into the garage is a real breeze because I can now turn my head comfortably. My overall outlook on life has improved. I am less tired and I join in physical activities and games with a lot more enthusiasm." Lenore Henderson
Benign Hypermobility Joint Syndrome
"Jesse was diagnosed with Benign Hypermobility Joint Syndrome ... Jesse became very used to paediatric hospital visits for physical therapy and yearly heart ECGs, echos & chest x-ray from a cardiologist at Greenlane hospital ... chiropractic care has always been part of Jesse's life - as a result he is rarely sick, he does not need hospital therapy now, his posture has improved, his heart is stable, and the recent chiropractic orthotics provide support for his feet problems, balancing out his body and enabling him to run & function like other children." Jesse Tong
My balance has been corrected
"I feel my balance has been corrected, I'm walking faster & straighter, creaking in the neck has gone, sore hips have gone, sore shoulder blades have gone, feel energised" Mal Steed
I was sceptical at first
"I had pain for over 10 years which made me short tempered & angry. It restricted what I could do and had caused relationship problems ... with chiropractic I'm now better able to cope emotionally and able to undertake tasks that previously caused a lot of pain ... I was sceptical at first, but am impressed with the improvement in my health & the treatment received from David." Mike Glasspool
Chiropractors do actually under promise and over deliver
"Chiropractors do actually under promise and over deliver ... David's blood pressure has returned to normal (he has dropped one of his two blood pressure tablets), our recovery from stiffness after the gym is so much quicker, our stress levels have been reduced considerably both physically & emotionally, Jan recovered from a wheezy cough in winter without steroids and antibiotics which previously the Doctor had prescribed, David's improved confidence in snow skiing was evident after adjustments to his neck back enabled him to not only enjoy steeper slopes but he noticed less stiffness days after enjoying the skiing ... we are more tolerant, more focused on goals and more positive about our future ... our back & neck pain that were just those "growing old" aches we had put up with for years from overuse in our work are now a memory of the past" Jan & David Klausen
Regular visits have made a huge difference
"I believe regular visits have made a huge difference. Lately, I actually feel myself again. The soreness isn't nagging at me all the time, I have energy & feel that I am thinking a lot clearer. I am a lot happier and look forward to my treatments ... everything is explained to you and it all makes sense." Angela Cassey
I’m no longer on a prescription of painkillers which caused nausea & loss of appetite
“I am able to walk again without crutches or any help. There has been a marked improvement in my health after each visit … I’m able to live without the medication prescribed … I was referred by a good friend who suggested I give it a go – I’m more than pleased that I did.” Sister Shelia O’Toole
I couldn’t pick up my kids
“I had a very sore lower back with limited movement and couldn’t pick up my kids without pain – Panadol had very limited effect – I’ve had lots of improvement and fully recommend chiropractic care.” Derek Barr
