Testimonials

In July I was experiencing a stiff neck. It came on suddenly and the diagnosis was a herniated disc in my neck and upper back. As each day went by, the stiffness turned into some serious pain and the pain was generating into my shoulder and arm.

To be honest, I am an avid golfer. I’m on the course every weekend. As a result of this pain, my game came to a sudden halt. I could not swing a golf club to save my life.

Dr. Cook D.C. was the first person I decided to call. I am a copier technician and have worked on Dr. Cook D.C.’s copiers for some time. Besides that, different people have mentioned Churchill Chiropractic Clinic to me in conversation through the years, so I decided to give it a try.

Dr. Cook D.C. is very professional and keeps you well informed through all the procedures. I have to say that Dr. Cook D.C.’s entire staff, including himself, are all wonderful, compassionate people. I would recommend this to everyone I know. It saved me from drastic surgery, and brought my life back to normal.

I am now pain free! It has been six months. The numbness in my arm and hand that I was told could take up to 9-12 months to heal is totally gone! I am back golfing and enjoying life thanks to Dr. Cook D.C. and his MUAs.

I have suffered many years with a lower back problem. Through the years my backaches have become steadily worse. I had serious groin pain along with it. I would say that the last five to seven years I was just coping with it. I have two small granddaughters who I spend a lot of time with. I noticed that the more I lifted them or just enjoyed having fun with them, the next few days I would always suffer with pain. Also, with the job that I do, I spend a lot of time driving a car on inspections and by the end of a typical day, I would be on Motrin and lot of analgesic cream to cut the pain.

Last year I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis. I received a MRI ordered by my physician. That is when I was told of the spinal stenosis. She prescribed a drug called Mobic. I took the Mobic whenever my back went out, but I knew I had to do something about my situation, because it was not getting any better. I did not like the idea of major surgery! Luckily my husband had three MUAs done by Dr. Cook D.C. last summer. He suffered from a herniated disc in his upper back and neck. He is now 100% thanks to Dr. Cook D.C. So that is when I decided to give Dr. Cook D.C. a try.

I have been going to Dr. Cook D.C. since the beginning of December 2007. Since I have started with Dr. Cook D.C. I can truthfully say that I feel a substantial difference already, plus, above all, I am pretty well drug free. I have now just finished my second MUA; matter of fact, I just arrived home from it. I feel fantastic!

Dr. Cook D.C. and all his staff are just wonderful. They are all very sincere with your work up, physical therapy and adjustments. I would recommend Dr. Cook D.C. in a minute to anyone with a problem.

Scientific Evidence

MUA is a research-based treatment, which means that the soundest scientific studies have been used to determine its effectiveness as a treatment for severe chronic pain.  In fact, the research is ongoing, as top clinicians in the field constantly test and refine the procedure for optimal results.

Here’s just a small sampling of what the studies have shown so far:

  • 83% of patients with verified radiuculopathies reported significant improvement (Robert Mensor, MD)
  • Patients with back pain a minimum of 10 years reported 87% recovery rate with MUA (Onlgy et al)
  • 71% of MUA patients returned to normal activity after treatment (Bradford and Siehl)

How it Works

   Eliminate Pain...even if you’ve tried "everything"

If you suffer from severe chronic pain, you need to understand that there is hope.

Manipulation under Anesthesia (MUA) is one of the most efficient and innovative pain relief treatments available today.  Safe, effective, and painless, MUA is producing remarkable results for pain patients who had given up hope of ever living pain free-even for patients who had tried "everything"...including surgery.


   Sleep like a baby right through your treatment

With anesthesia administered by a licensed anesthesiologist, MUA provides you with all the benefits of traditional chiropractic care without any of the "popping" sounds that-while completely safe-may make some patients a little nervous or uncomfortable.  You will be under the care of a Board Certified Anesthesiologist throughout the entire process and recovery


   More versatility means better results, faster

But MUA is much more than just "sedation chiropractic."  MUA allows the doctor to work with damaged soft tissue deeper and more effectively, which means that you’ll feel better faster. 

In addition, the anesthesia benefits you and your doctor in the following ways:

  • It eliminates muscle spasms to allow for increased spinal mobility
  • It quells the pain receptors in your nerves that have been overactive due to your dysfunctional spine
  • It creates total muscle relaxation so that your doctor can better work with your muscles and any existing scar tissue

Not only that, some clinical tests show that MUA has a remarkable 80-90% success rate with qualified patients.


   Recover Quickly and Painlessly

At the conclusion of your treatment program, you should notice an increased range of motion very quickly.  While there may be some mild temporary soreness-as though you’d just completed a rigorous exercise routine-typically, this fades fast.  And if your pain was caused by adhesions or shortened tissues, you should experience significant change almost immediately.



Payment Options

Save Time and Money

Compared to surgery and drawn-out chemical therapies, MUA is faster and more affordable. It even compares favorably with other chiropractic treatments like decompression therapy.

Best of all, MUA is covered by most insurance plans, unlike some other chiropractic procedures. So you save both ways!

We also have special financing options available to people who are uninsured.  Give us a call at (888) 227-9515 to schedule your consultation or to discuss any questions you may have about MUA
