Headaches

My major problem
when I came to Chiro Spa was headaches. I would go to bed with one and wake up with one. This had been occurring for about 2 years. I had seen 2 doctors who gave me medicine for my headaches that did not work. My headaches interfered with my every day routine by making me gripey and not wanting to do anything. With chiropractic care I got results within 2 weeks and was feeling GREAT!     Carol

My major problems when I came to Chiro Spa were headaches, stiff neck and lower back aches. I had these problems ever since high school and just came to accept them as part of my life. Five medical doctors had treated me with various prescription medications over the years along with over the counter products I used in between care. This care only gave some relief for a short period of time. After three treatments under chiropractic care I noticed a decrease in the frequency of headaches and complete relief from the stiff neck. The problems I lived with since high school gave me a general feeling of tiredness compounded by a feeling of not being able to cope, not to mention the constant headaches. I would DEFINITELY recommend chiropractic to others. I love the feeling of well-being and just feeling good!    Sherry

When I first entered Chiro Spa I was suffering from numbness, headaches and strange "stars" in my eyesight. I had the problems about two weeks before I came in. I went to my eye doctor first because I thought I was having eye trouble. He said my eyes were fine, that I was having a "migraine syndrome". I was having difficulty seeing and it made me feel slightly nauseous. I also had trouble moving my arms and legs at times. After about a month of visits to Chiro Spa, I noticed that I wasn't having any more problems!! I would DEFINITELY recommend chiropractic to everyone!    Whitman

Over the last 10 years I have experienced dull headaches which induced tiredness, which have gotten gradually worse over time, becoming very intense during the last 2 years. Working in Sales, the headaches would cause me to be very irritable with the people I was involved with and not allow me to think clearly in many situations.  Outside the workplace, I have been very involved with sports and during many occasions I did not achieve my ultimate performance goal.   Once I realized that I was suffering from allergies, I started taking some prescriptions from my MD but to no avail.  I had pretty much given up on everything and came to the conclusion that I would just have to live and work around the headaches and tiredness.  In mid August of this year I was in my office one morning when my boss walked in and was making the comment how he had been to see a chiropractor which had resulted in giving him back more freedom in his neck movements.  He threw the Chiro Spa business card on my desk and when I saw “Relieving Headaches” I thought hey it wouldn’t hurt to go for a visit.  After the few first visits WOW!!  Unbelievable!!  The headaches have totally gone; my energy level has gone through the roof.  Life is great.  Hey, I’m the first to admit I was skeptical about chiropractic care but not anymore.  Hopefully we will see the medical insurance companies working in a preventative mode more than a reactive one.  The latter is resulting in more expense in many situations.  Finally, thanks to all the Chiro Spa staff in Allen who perform an excellent service and have a great positive attitude towards life.  Thanks again, John

I had been getting frequent migraines for about three months after an auto accident I had been in.  I tried taking any over the counter drug I could, but nothing helped.  They became stronger and more frequent as time passed. Lights, noise & movement would only make them worse.  I was a server at Mimi’s Café, where I met Dr. Tanella, who suggested I receive chiropractic care. The migraines stopped after only 1 week of treatment!  I have had only the beginnings of two migraines while under treatment since and was able to get rid of them be using the Posture Pump (a traction device Dr Tanella suggested).  My husband, who was also in the same car accident, was having headaches on a daily basis. He has been under chiropractic care with Dr. Tanella and no longer gets them. I have learned many things about chiropractic care that will help me stay healthy in the future. Chiropractic treatment has not only helped the headaches & neck pain, but also lessened the allergy symptoms that my husband & I had both experienced.  I now understand that regular chiropractic care is necessary to maintain your health, strengthening your immune system and reduce what people think are normal aches and pains. It is a lifetime commitment and has given me a new way of looking at health care!   Teri

Through church, I became acquainted with Dr. Tanella.  As we began to talk, I told him about the severe headaches and mid back pain that I had been experiencing for a long while.  Dr. Robb shared chiropractic with me; I made an appointment with his office.  After examination and x-rays, Dr. Robb showed me that he could help my problems.  I have had great results!  My headaches began to subside and the pain between my shoulders is much better.  I wasn’t sure about chiropractic at first, but now I KNOW it works.  I share it with everyone because I have a whole different attitude and opinion toward chiropractic.  I’m a believer in Chiropractic.   Cliff

When I first came to see Dr. Tanella, I was experiencing headaches and I was very depressed.  I had suffered with these problems for 20 years.  I was taking pain medication on a regular basis and other medication for the depression.  One day, I read about chiropractic and how treatments help migraines, so I made an appointment with Dr. Robb.  I had some doubts that chiropractic would help me, but after I met him and had an examination, he showed me that he could help me to not only get rid of headaches and depression, but eventually reduce the medication I was taking daily.  I was scheduled to have a bladder lift the next day.  Dr. Robb called me at home and asked me to let chiropractic work and see if it would help because he believed it would.  I cancelled my surgery and sure enough I didn’t need it after all!  THANKS TO CHIROPRACTIC!  He has also seen some of my family members with low back pain, headaches, allergies, and has successful results with everyone.  I would recommend anyone who suffers with these symptoms to try chiropractic.  Not only do I believe in it, but I also trust Dr. Robb’s treatments.   Melinda

When I came to see Dr. Tanella, my major problem was headaches.  I had been having headaches for about one year.  I had been treated by one medical doctor before coming here and had been taking medication.  After just two treatments, I saw great results occur.  My headaches had interfered with my life in which I didn’t feel well a lot of the time.  I would highly recommend chiropractic care.   Michael

Severe migraine headaches have been a painful and frustrating part of my life for nearly ten years.  At first I only got about one or two each year, then they gradually increased- first to 12 a year, then to 14 a year, and finally to a minimum of three to five migraines each week.  Some of my worst migraines lasted a full week, putting me into the hospital on several occasions.  Even then, only multiple doses of powerful drugs like Demerol and morphine took away the pain I was experiencing.  Unable to eat, drink, work, exercise, socialize- I was missing out on almost everything in life and losing hope.  All my family doctor could do was prescribing medications to treat the migraines, which didn’t always work.  I began seeing a neurologist who took x-rays, scans and MRIs, and prescribed a never-ending series of drugs like antidepressants, blood pressure medicines and anti-seizure medicines, but was never able to find anything wrong with me or prevent the migraines.  I had begun seeking relief in the form of bi-weekly deep tissue massages.  My massage therapist recommended that I try chiropractic, but I didn’t follow through on the idea until she began working at Chiro Spa.  Halfway through my treatment of adjustments and massage, I began noticing that the number and severity of my migraines was beginning to decrease.  Although the initial part of my treatment is not yet finished, I have been migraine free for two weeks.  All of this has been without taking any of the so-called “preventative” medicines the neurologist prescribed.  All said, I am beginning to get my life back and feel great.  Most importantly, I know that I am learning a better way of life and how to take care of myself through chiropractic healing, massage and natural remedies.  The best part is that I truly believe that the best is yet to come in the weeks, months and years ahead.  I believe that the only thing I did wrong was wait as long as I did to start chiropractic!

I came to see Dr. Tanella because I have had severe headaches, neck and shoulder problems for years.  I had tried many things in the past such as muscle relaxers, pain medication, acupuncture, breast reduction and therapy with only some improvement.  I was referred to Dr. Tanella from some friends at work.  Since coming in to see Dr. Tanella, I feel a lot better.  I can now do most anything I want as far as activities that were limited previously.  Since being under Dr. Tanella’s care, I have learned that Chiropractic is a natural treatment, mental, physical and spiritual.   Linda

My major problem was headaches, identified as “cluster” headaches and similar to migraines, but more intense and usually for a shorter time.  I have had this problem for 12 years.  I have seen numerous doctors and taken countless medications.  When I had a headache, everything ceased.  I could not function.  I had a runny nose and severe tears from one eye.  I even contemplated suicide.  Then, after finding Chiropractic, I began treatment intensely the first two weeks to eliminate the immediate problem.  Then I completed correction over a period of about four to six months.  Since I’ve been in maintenance care, I have not had any recurrence of headaches for six years.  Prior to Chiropractic care, I had “Run the Gamut” of MD’s, including Nose, Throat, Neurologists, Psychologists, Orthopedic, etc…even the Dentist, with no luck.  I would absolutely recommend Chiropractic to others.   Bud

My major problems when I came to Dr. Tanella’s office consisted of headaches and tension in my shoulders and arms.  I had had these problems for approximately two years.  I had seen two doctors for this condition.  My problems interfered with my life as I was constantly up and down because of the headaches.  I couldn’t’ give 100% at work a good share of the time.  Under Chiropractic care, I experienced results within two months.  I would definitely recommend Chiropractic to others.  In fact, I’ve already talked to people about coming in for help.   Carla

When I first came to see Dr. Tanella, I was having numbness on the entire right side of my body, headaches, lethargy, depression and digestive problems.  For a long time I had been taking muscle relaxers and pain medication, knowing pain medication and other drugs are not the answer.  Dr. Tanella recommended adjustments, simple daily exercises to retain spinal column and stretching exercises.  With Dr. Tanella’s treatments, my energy has returned, neck corrected 53%, no need for pain medication, mood changes uplifted, and numbness greatly improved.  For people who are sick, suffering or in pain, chiropractic care, natural minerals and supplements are the answer.  Stay with it – reprogramming the body takes time.  I know chiropractic care is the answer to correcting my body.  Short Story: In 1972 I was in an accident.  Medical doctors put me in the hospital and a brace.  I threw the brace away.  I started seeing a chiropractor.  Had I not, I would be an invalid today.   Kacci

Before I came to Dr. Tanella, I was suffering with headaches, blurred vision and shoulder pain.  When a dear friend of mine told me about Dr. Tanella, I didn’t have much faith in chiropractors, but my friend talked me into making an appointment.  Dr. Tanella’s office was offering a free examination at the time, so I thought it wouldn’t hurt.  After the evaluation and x-rays, Dr. Tanella said that he could help me.  I was very impressed with Dr. Tanella and his staff.  I decided to give him a chance.  After only several treatments, I finally got relief.  I had suffered with pain for such a long time, and I believe that if it wasn’t for my friend sharing with me about Dr. Tanella and chiropractic, I would still be suffering with these problems.  When I hear anyone complain of aches and pain, the first thing I tell them is “you need to go see Dr. Tanella; I know he will help you.”  THANKS FOR CHIROPRACTIC!   Oleta

When I first came to see Dr. Tanella, I was having neck pain, headaches, and a stiff low back.  I had this condition for about 6 years and the only thing that would make me feel better was aspirin, which only provided temporary relief.  This pain interfered with my sleep and I had problems getting off to work in the mornings.  Dr. Tanella started adjusting my neck and mid back to ease the pain.  I felt better within a few weeks.  I would recommend chiropractic care to anyone who is experiencing any kind of back or neck pain.   Allen

Every day I woke up and went to bed with bad headaches and neck pain for about two years.  This problem made me so tired and hurt so bad that I really didn’t care about things.  I had seen a medical doctor and at that time, he prescribed medication which didn’t help.  However, under Dr. Tanella’s care, in two weeks, my headaches began subsiding.  Chiropractic works for me and I would recommend it to others.   Ken

After being a patient and having found relief with chiropractic from years of headaches and neck pain, I decided that this was the field that I wanted to be in.  I began working for my chiropractor fourteen years ago, doing therapy and working my way up.  I have since then worked for many doctors of chiropractic and even put a chiropractor (ex-husband) through school.  Let’s just say that I know the chiropractic field quite well.  I wanted to write this testimony because I want to share with people my feelings and experience with Dr. Tanella.  I can honestly and without reservation tell you that of all the chiropractors I’ve worked for and been adjusted by, I consider Dr. Tanella to be the most gifted, the most sincere, and above all the most knowledgeable on what it takes to get patients to their optimal health potential.  The real changes that I have seen, the miracles that I have witnessed since I have been here for two years, are more than I have experienced in all of my years in this healing field.  My own family has experience a greater degree of health, since following a strict adjustment schedule, and doing the very same things he recommends to all of you.  I can truly say that regardless of whether or not I worked for t his office, or where I lived in the metro-plex, I would without a doubt drive from Fort Worth if necessary to be adjusted by Dr. Tanella, and we have many patients who do.  He’s the best!   Lisa

My lawyer suggested I could relieve my headaches through chiropractic and without the use of drugs.  I’ve always had some pain in my mid back, neck and low back, but after the car accident, I got BAD headaches that I could not get rid of.  I work construction and I thought all of us had back problems.  I’ve spent half of a lifetime trying to stay away from drugs; I don’t even take aspirin, so I just lived with the pain.  At first, for the first few treatments, I thought it was a joke.  I couldn’t see how it could help.  It seemed kind of stupid, but I just noticed that I could do things that I haven’t been able to do in years.  It took a few treatments, but I noticed a big change almost immediately after I started.  I recommend to other people who are sick, suffering, or in pain to come to see Dr. Tanella.  Forget about drugs that disguise the problems, Dr. Tanella will do away with the problems.  I will come back for all my health needs, and I don’t go to medical doctors because their way of treatment is taking pills.  Randy

Dr. Trimble referred me to Dr. Tanella because I was having severe headaches and shoulder pain.  I have had this pain for 25 years and the pain was moving down into my chest area.  The pain was so bad that I would cry, throw up and pass out.  I was taking prescription drugs and over a hundred extra strength aspirin a week… After a few short weeks, I was having only very small headaches, and I have not had any aspirin in 3 weeks.  I feel great!  I love chiropractic and I have told over a dozen friends and family members about it!   Juanita
