My first visit to Dr. Santoro's office was in November of 2014, a month and a half after the birth of my second daughter. Shortly after my daughter's birth, I began to experience back pain, mostly between my shoulder blades, but also in my neck and lower back. The pain slowly became so severe that I was having trouble holding my newborn daughter. I was not sure if I could continue rocking her during the night or even holding her to feed her.
After my first visit to Dr. Santoro, my back pain was noticeably lessened. After a couple more visits it was practically nonexistent and I was able to continue carrying both of my daughters with ease. What surprised me the most was how the chiropractic visits were alleviating symptoms that I had previously assumed to be unrelated to my back. After the birth of my daughter, I had begun to experience a long list of health complaints; the most alarming of which was a constant, heavy pressure in my chest. To great relief, this also completely disappeared after my first couple of visits.
After seeing Dr. Santoro consistently for two weeks, while also following the at-home exercises he prescribed, I was noticeably healthier and happier. Both friends and family mentioned that I was looking much better, and I myself felt like an entirely new person. I accredit my continued good health not only to the adjustments I received but also to the general awareness of my spine that I now have. During each visit, Dr. Santoro relayed valuable information and explained at-home exercises that I continue to use to help maintain a healthy spine. read more
