Dr. Diane Michaels is a miracle worker. Literally I made an appointment due to the chronic pain I was experiencing in my neck it was excruciating. I tried to deal with it as long as I could three years plus stopped in as a new patient on a Monday left in such amazement that I couldn't believe number one she's very thorough, the first visit is very informative.

I had been suffering with neck, shoulder, and back pain for almost a year and had tried therapeutic massage and medications with no success. As my last resort, I decided to try a chiropractic solution. Someone referred me to Dr. Michaels and The Activator Method Chiropractic Technique. Since I am not a fan of manual manipulation, I was so pleased with this mild treatment process and the results were amazing! Within two visits the mobility in my neck and shoulder region were almost back to normal, my backache was gone, my posture was straight and my balance was secure! Within a month, the pain in my neck and shoulders was gone and I was feeling like new. I would highly recommend Dr. Michaels and her method of treatment. read more

First, I wish I could take Dr. Diane Michaels back to New York with me. We were moving from one house to another in January and I definitely did more than I should have at 73. I had seen Dr. Michaels when I was here last year for routine maintenance which I normally do in New York. My lower back, hip and neck were all hurting when we got here this February. I called Dr. Michaels and from my very first visit she was able to provide a great deal of relief. Now, after a few weeks of adjustments, all of the various pains are gone. Beyond her professional ability, Dr. Michaels is a warm and caring doctor. If you are experiencing any physical pain, I would strongly suggest you make an appointment to see her. read more

Dr. Michaels is an outstanding chiropractor. She treated me on two separate occasions for severe low back and leg pain. She analyzed and diagnosed quickly what my problem was and in just a few visits had me pain free again. Her gentle use of the "activator" is very effective. Her treatments relieve pain without creating pain. Having undergone chiropractic treatment for the past 30 years, I can honestly say that Dr. Michaels is one of the best. If you are in need of a good chiropractor in the Bradenton FL area, Dr. Michaels would be a great choice! read more
