When I first went to see Dr. Richards it was because I wanted to get my little 3 month old boy adjusted. I absolutely had no idea what it meant to get adjusted but as we talked a little bit I also asked him about my own back and neck problems. I've been suffering from neck pains and the resulting headaches for years and also developed back pains since I have had my baby. Doctors always told me to "keep in a strait position" to solve my problems, but whenever I tried I was only able to keep in a straight position for a couple of minutes. Dr. Richards finally offered to adjust me too and without any expectations I consented.

After Dr. Richards adjusted me I was so surprised because I felt an improvement nearly immediately. Suddenly I found it much easier to get in a straight position. It nearly came naturally and without any effort. Now I realized that I've been kind of "blocked" all these years! It's impressive how neck and back problems and headaches improved since that. To be without headaches and back pains is so important while picking up my baby so many times a day!

Thank you Dr. Richards! I definitely recommend everybody to get checked by him. You might suffer from something you didn't even realize!

Before coming to see Dr. Richards I had severe headaches and pain radiating down my legs, which kept me from getting a good nights rest. My neck felt as if it could not hold my head upright.

I no longer have headaches or pain radiating down my leg. I find myself resting better at night, have a greater range of motion and more energy. All of these improvements after 6 weeks of treatment!

I would highly recommend Dr. Richards and his staff.

For the last 13 years of my life at least, I have suffered from severe headaches and neck pain that at times kept me from even turning my neck in a certain direction. I've looked everywhere for an answer to my problem but nothing I tried seemed to work. I was at my wit's end until I found Richards Family Chiropractic. I feel like a new woman! For the first time in over a decade I do not suffer regularly from incapacitating headaches and my pain is finally gone. I can't thank Dr. Richards enough for finally helping me feel like I don't have to live with pain and go through life never knowing when it will hit.

Finally I can go to work and live my life without feeling as if I'm moving through a constant fog of pain. I don't get up in the mornings wondering if this will be another long day of constant headaches and a sore upper neck. I can now get the things that I need to do accomplished without every move I make being one of agony! It may seem as if I am exaggerating but I honestly haven't been this happy in a long, long time...

I've already told my friends, family and co-workers.

I have Multiple Sclerosis - a chronic and progressive disease of the central nervous system. My MS has many symptoms, including chronic pain and mobility/balance problems. I had moderate to severe headaches every day for 5+ years. Along with muscle pain/spasms in my neck and shoulders. I was told by my primary care physicians, neurologists and two MS specialist that my headaches were on of the "common symptoms" of MS. Nothing could be done to ease my pain (besides taking a handful of drugs everyday.) After my first visit my headaches eased considerably, and after two weeks of treatment, the headaches were GONE! My chiropractic treatment has also given me some stability to the way I walk and, consequently, I have fewer
problems with dizziness and falling. My adjustments have helped me more than any prescription drugs I have taken and I will be forever grateful to Dr.Richards for his excellent care.

With chronic pain comes depression and anxiety. My headaches were making me miserable and now they're GONE! Chiropractic care has greatly improved the quality of my life. Thank You SO MUCH, Dr.Richards!

I have suggested this office to everyone!

I first met Dr. Richards in 2004 at a local Curves. He was doing free bone density screenings for the members [of a Health Club]. Dr. Richards noticed that I had checked off severe headaches on the health form I filled out. I explained that I had been to several doctors and spent a small fortune without finding relief. Dr. Richards was confident he could help me. I was skeptical, but made an appointment for a consultation.

Dr. Richards very carefully explained that the road to wellness would take persistence. I told him that I didn’t have a lot of money for treatment, but he said he would work with me. In the end I did see results and my headaches grew less frequent.

Thanks to Dr. Richards, my headaches have decreased and my use of pain medication has decreased. I now have my life back.

I received a flyer about Dr. Richards office and decided to give it a try. I had been having almost daily headaches and mid-back pain.

After coming the first time, my headaches diminished and my back pain decreased. I no longer have headaches and mid-back pain is non-existent. I feel so much better!

I would recommend this office to anyone!

I have had migraines for 7-8 years and have tried every drug out there. I was having 2-4 migraines a week and it was getting worse. My physician wanted to put me on pain killer and that was not something that I wanted to do. So I thought I would try Dr. Richards.

I have been coming to Dr.Richards for a little over a month and in that time have had only one migraine headache. I have got back to my normal life!

I would recommend anyone to that office, especially with migraines!

I was having really bad headaches three to four times daily. I had a spinal screening done at Curves in Brevard and found out that I had an imbalance. I started seeing Dr. Richards and after just one adjustment, I started feeling better. Now after having treatment for one month, I haven’t been having headaches like I was.

I am now able to work throughout the whole day without having to stop here and there to take medicine, or go into a dark room for a while to get rid of my headache.

As a teacher, I deal with stress in a multitude of ways. To have a headache periodically really didn’t alarm me. Then the frequency and severity of my headaches began to increase. While working out at Curves [fitness center] one evening, I met Amanda [Dr. Richards’ Assistant]. She did a screening on my back and after talking with her I decided to see Dr. Richards about the headaches.

My headaches are gone! I’ve also had improved posture and the stretches have helped increase my flexibility.

Not only has the chiropractic helped me, but the staff here is wonderful!
