After decades of looking down because of schooling and my career, I developed significant neck issues including pain, tight muscles, tension headaches, feeling constantly out of alignment, and at times what felt like locked-up or pinched nerves.
It eventually reached the point where I could barely turn my head fully to the left or right.
I had actually seen 6 different chiropractors before finding Dr. Craig Volzke at Core Care Chiropractic.
While some provided progressive relief, I always seemed to hit a plateau and found myself feeling dependent on adjustments just to feel okay again.
I was also initially fearful of chiropractic care because of a bad experience my father had years ago.
However, after a friend recommended Core Care Chiropractic, I decided to give it a try in hopes this one would be different...and it definitely was.
From my very first visit, Dr. Craig's approach went far beyond simply getting an adjustment and being sent on my way.
There is real therapy, structure, science, and documentation behind what he does.
I especially appreciated how focused he was on getting to the root cause and tracking measurable progress along the way.
The X-rays speak for themselves.
When I started care, my neck curve measured only -0.6°, which was essentially straight, compared to the normal curve of approximately -42°.
After about 8 months of regular adjustments and traction, my neck improved to -20.7°.
Considering my neck had become nearly completely straight over the years, regaining roughly 50% of the lost curve was significant progress both structurally and physically.
More importantly, I could physically feel the difference while also seeing the progress documented in the X-rays.
That combination gave me confidence and motivation to stay consistent with treatment.
What impressed me most was that Dr. Craig didn't just focus on temporary relief or doing the same thing every visit. He adjusted the treatment approach as needed and continued working toward measurable structural improvement.
He focused on long-term correction in a way I had never previously experienced.
I continue doing maintenance care to preserve the progress and look forward to seeing even more improvement over time.
If you've tried multiple chiropractors, experienced some relief but keep plateauing, or feel like your neck and spine issues are never truly getting corrected, I would strongly encourage you to consider Core Care Chiropractic.... plus all of the staff there is great! read more
