Testimonials

  • "I am so happy to have found Dr. Matthew Adams. I was diagnosed with a mild case of scoliosis at age 11. However, as I progress through my 40s, I have been experiencing back pain. A dear friend and my acupuncturist both recommended Dr. Adams. From the moment I met him I felt welcome and cared for. He recommended that I have an x-ray done, and it revealed exactly what Dr. Adams suspected, and that is arthritis. We immediately started manipulation of my back, ultrasound, and supplements to help"

  • "Great doctor. Very caring, thorough, and intuitive. He helped me tremendously with chronic headaches. He takes his time and covers all aspects of health: structural, chemical, emotional. I recommend him highly."
    Mary K.
  • "On two specific occasions Dr. Adams went above and beyond what a typical doctor would do. My 12 year old son tweaked his neck and could not move his head. Dr. Adams treated him extensively for 30 minutes. At the conclusion, my son regained tentative motion and with the aid of a brace fully recovered in less than three days. On another occasion, my wife, threw her back out and could not move off the floor. Dr Adams and his in office therapist, Cori Ann came to our home after hours to do a full ho"

  • "Dr. Adams is a knowledgeable gentle chiropractor. He is not only concerned about helping with any pain you are experiencing but also with your overall health. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a chiropractor. His clinic also has a therapeutic massage therapist who is the best in her field. Her techniques relieve stress, improve motion and quicken the healing process after injury. This clinic is the best in the area."
    Liz A.
  • "Holy Crap. I am SOOOO impressed with Dr. Adams. His understanding of the inner workings of the body and the interconnectedness between muscle, joint, nerve and organs is the best I've encountered. The combo of adjustment and kinesiology are magic. I went in with a seized up neck and he FIXED IT by the end of our session. I've been to chiropractors before that have adjusted me and told me I would get worse before I got better. And they were right. Not here! But, that's just the beginning. We disc"
