Dr. Sievers is a great chiropractor and even better human being. I came to him a few years ago with…read moreongoing sciatic and disc issues from weight and power lifting. He and his team quickly assessed my situation and put me on a course for repair. My love for power lifting brought me to him frequently land he always got me back on my feet with a combination of advanced meridian technologies and great adjustments. His team always took care of me with various forms of therapy and were always delightful. I reached out to his office today and was surprised to get him on the phone directly. Sadly he told me that the office is no longer open but he still advised me on other chiropractors who could help me. I wish him and his team all the best.

I suffered from a hiatal hernia for the last year and a half. When I first felt the symptoms, I…read moreinitially thought it was GERD as I had experienced it a few years back. I thought if I watched my diet - veggie juices and salads or steamed vegetables - it would get better as that is what I did the first time it happened. It eased the symptoms but never healed it. After 6 months of some herbal medicine (herbal medicine worked but if I stopped it would come back), plus 2 types of acid blockers (otc meds you're suppose to take for 2 weeks and did not work) , I finally went to a gastroenterologist who performed an EGD on me and the hernia was found. For 7 months, I took acid blockers (20 mg) then went to a 40 mg (prescription was cheaper than otc), as well as a dopaminergic blocker 3x a day before food. Again, they eased the symptoms but never got better. One effect of the drugs on me, because they made me feel better compared to before, I ate everything I wanted and gained about 10 lbs. The next step was surgery which I did not want to do. I remembered years ago my rolfer did some manipulation near my stomach and I felt that he would be able to fix me. Unfortunately, he hasn't traveled to this side of the states and I was feeling a bit desperate so I did some internet research and it looked like a hiatal hernia could be adjusted by a chiropractor but not all chiropractors can do this. Also, note that I felt desperate as I quit the meds cold turkey and apparently, this makes your stomach produce twice the acid and was experiencing a lot of discomfort. You're not suppose to do that as your body's system has relied on those for some time to run. In Northern Virginia, MD and DC, there was only one reference to a chiropractor/ naturopath who was able to adjust this condition and this was Dr. Sievers, so I made an appointment and as hokey as this may sound, he was able to bring my stomach back to it's position - or at least it felt like it. After he performed the adjustment, I could breathe better. After my dinner (my appointment was at 3:15 pm), I noticed that the symptoms were 60% better. I am still currently healing my digestive system and I am on a healthy plant based diet. I believe I am still working on reversing the effects of the acid and dopaminergic blockers. I feel like I should never have taken those drugs. Obviously, this is your choice but if you suffer from this same condition, I would suggest to do the manipulation first and see if it works for you. Anyway, I hope this helps people with this condition and know that yes, there is an alternative to surgery and if you live in Metro DC, Dr. Sievers can help you.

First off, most of Dr. Ward's recent (and much more accurate) reviews are on the Nova Pain & Rehab…read moreYelp page, so go there too: http://www.yelp.com/biz/nova-pain-and-rehab-center-arlington-4 Dr. Ward is miracle worker. Don't let the other reviewer turn you off. She obviously had a bad experience almost five years ago. My bet is that the practice is COMPLETELY different than it was in 2008. I came to Dr. Ward after struggling to get better at a massive orthopedic practice in DC. My injuries were not serious (no herniated discs or tears), but the pain was keeping me out of Crossfit and away from many of the athletic endeavors I enjoy. I got a cortisone shot at the old place, but eventually my pain came back. I found Dr. Ward through my Crossfit gym and boy was I lucky. Here's a rundown of my time here this year: 1) Making appointments is super easy and Ronald (at the Ballston location) is one of the nicest, most accommodating desk staffers I have ever encountered at a doctor's office. 2) Came in for my evaluation, which was followed by Xrays in the South Arlington office. Dr. Ward made a few chiropractic adjustments with my back then did pressure point stuff with my shoulder on this first visit--I immediately noticed a difference. Great start Dr. Ward. 3) I saw Dr. Ward twice a week for the next few weeks and did some physical therapy beforehand with their PT people. At every appointment, we discussed movements/positions that caused the pain and how I should be strengthening the small muscles to prevent injury. The training and mobility tips I learned from Dr. Ward were invaluable. 4) After about six weeks, I just noticed that my various aches and pains had dissipated almost completely. When I would feel pain, I also could understand what I did to cause it and what mobility techniques I could use to treat and prevent it moving forward. I'm sure you can tell by the review, but Dr. Ward is an excellent source for athletes (especially crossfitters). He is level 1 certified so he knows what you mean when you say, "Gee Dr. Ward, my shoulder really hurts after doing an AMRAP thruster WOD..." . In summary, give Dr. Ward a try if you want to get better and stay better for the long term.
