Written Spinal Decompression Testimonials Santa Rosa

I came to see Dr. Ridgeway for lower back pain that had me in the ER the night prior. Within 3 treatments I’m walking, moving, living without pain in three days! He took me from a 10 on the pain scale to a zero, incredible. Also, in conversation I told him of an on set of “tennis elbow" injury from working at the computer. He made an adjustment and now I am writing this testimony with no pain at all. I am a nurse and it’s important for me to work without pain. He is the best Medication in town.

When I first went to see Dr. Ridgeway I was in the worst shape of my life and had debilitating lower back pain from bulging discs and vertebrae that weren't staying in place. I could barely walk 20 steps and would have to sit down. I could barely lift a mug of coffee. Life was hell and I thought I would never walk right again or be without severe pain. The benefits I received from the chiropractic care here were nothing short of a miracle. It took some time, but I can now run 12+ miles, have almost no pain whatsoever, and am better off than i could have ever hoped for. I also took a greater responsibility to take care of myself. Once you start to feel the benefits of proper chiropractic care you do not want to go backwards to a life of pain. Dr. Ridgeway is the best you can get.

Amazing! After 25 years behind a desk I developed chronic low back pain that has lasted the last 5 years. I have tried everything from Acupuncture to X-rays, and after Kaiser telling me it was all in my head, I accepted a life of pain and being unable to sit. For the last 3 weeks, I have had no pain. I finally have relief and a cure. Dr. Mike's lumbar traction table has taken the pressure off the nerve and completely changed my life. Anyone suffering from chronic pain knows the debilitating affect, and needs to try the traction table

Dr. Ridgeway is amazing! I came to Dr. Ridgeway with what I thought was a painful back pain and after my xray I realized that I was having a herniated disc. He explained how herniation can be cured by chiropractic and he mentioned that the proper treatment may require many sessions and I should expect some relief after 3 weeks. I was skeptical at first whether this is an appropriate approach or not but I gave it a try and I am glad I did that. I started feeling relieved after the first session. I was pain free after the third treatment session. He is a compassionate, intuitive, and highly skilled healer. Thank you for treating me!

After spending much of the previous day flat on my back, I decided I needed help for my lower back pain. I found Dr Mike on Google, sent a message, and hoped for the best. Within 10 minutes, I had received a call back from Dr Mike and had an appointment to see him within the hour. I waddled into his office, and was able to walk out after his treatment. I’ve told all my coworkers and family about his awesome service and look forward to his treatment for my condition. Thanks Dr. Mike!

Dr. Ridgeway was very helpful in not only treating my back pain, but identifying underlying causes for the pain. He provided useful tips for ways to prevent further ailment and stretches designed to strengthen the supporting muscles of the spine. Now I am feeling better than I have in years. Definitely recommend!

I would like to thank you for your treatments for the past month. In two weeks, I was pain free! As an active guy wanting to do the triathlon this spring I can be pretty hard on my body. Training on top of having major spine fusion in college, my body can be finicky at times. I’ve been told by other doctors that my pain won’t go away and it’s something I have to live with. Since seeing you my body feels great and my training is almost pain free. No more cramped legs after a long bike rides or shooting pains from my hips after a long run. No other treatments have had the success that your sessions have had. Thanks

Shortly before surgery was scheduled to relieve any symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, a friend of mine suggested I try chiropractic care with Dr. Ridgeway. I had no idea that the pain, tingling and lack of sensation in my left hand and arm could be treated by a chiropractor, but I was thrilled to learn that surgery was not my only treatment option. I began regular care with Dr. Ridgeway. I experience relief of my symptoms within a few short weeks. As my treatment continued, it became clear that these changes were permanent and I would not need surgery! Dr. Ridgeway’s ongoing care has not only eliminated my need for carpal tunnel surgery I have increased range of motion in my neck, learned to walk and work with a healthier posture, recovered joint and muscle flexibility throughout my body and been relieved of discomfort caused by the initial signs of arthritis. Thank you Dr. Ridgeway, for your ongoing care and cure.
