For the past 5 years or so I have become more lethargic, forgetful, fatigued and seem to be walking around in a fog. I even asked my family doctor if I would get Alzheimer’s. I also have a history of kidney stones and was afraid that traditional diets would expose me to many more illnesses that would plague me as I got older. Traditional medicine was only treating me after the stones appeared, they did not look into why I was getting them. I began coming to Alternacare about a month ago and I feel so much better. Though I know I have a ways to go, I can now see a light at the end of the tunnel. I am much more productive, less forgetful and clearer headed. As a bonus I’m also losing weight. The program is not hard to follow and the results are well worth any inconvenience. The doctors listen to what you say and care about your success. I’d like to thank all that work at Alternacare for your loving support.

My daughter has had urinary tract issues since she was three years old, (she just turned six in August) the doctor called it chronic urinary. My daughter has a pediatrician, urologist and gynecologist. All of these doctors have seen her over the last three years had the conclusion that, “ She will grow out of it.” The longest period of time that she has been off of antibiotics prior to seeing Dr. Rob was three days. That means for 2 ½ years of her life she has taken antibiotics. What has also followed with that was horrible yeast infections, she was never comfortable. It had an effect on everything she did and all of us as a family. It is a horrible thing to watch your daughter in pain and discomfort from urinary and yeast infection issues.
We started seeing Dr. Rob in March. As of the second week of June, she has not had a urinary tract infection and it is now October. Over the last 2 ½ years she as missed a lot of school and we have missed a lot of work. I only dreamed that our life could be normal again, but we have it back again. She loves her adjustments from Dr. Poli. Her holistic healthcare has been a miracle in our lives. All I did was pray to God that an answer would come and it showed up in the mail in a small newspaper with the heading Alternacare.
We are Thankful for the Whole Staff.

It is a real pleasure to go out to eat with my family and friends. Before I came to Alternacare, I would be sick after eating and had to leave for home. I could not finish a meal, because I would be bloated, then the pain would come.
Thank you for helping me enjoy my meals!
I am so happy!

I have been coming to this office for three months. I saw the ad in the paper and put it in my pocketbook for six months, until I decided to make an appointment. I was very sick when I first started coming and Pam knows this is the truth!
In 1998 I was told that I had candidias, so I started on Sporanox. I have been taking it for ten years (What has that done to my liver? WOW!). I have been fighting this for ten years for nothing and have been very upset by it. It was a relief to find out I do not have candidias. I am now off of Sporonox! How great is that!?
I have been taking four medications to have a bowel movement for years. I am now off of all four of these medications and have normal bowel movements. That has not happened in two to three years. WOW, again!
The list goes on and on. I am now off of thirteen medications and feel like a teenager with a real life. Thanks to Pam, Dr. Rob and his wonderful staff I feel the BEST I have ever felt in twenty-three years.

When I started at Alternacare, I was unable to write, even write my own name. I also had no energy and would need an extended nap every afternoon. I was also dealing with moderate to severe hair loss.
After having treatment for the past two months I am able to write legibly! Naps are a thing of the past, atleast the extended ones. My hair dresser has made numerous comments that my hair is getting thicker and healthier. I’m excited to see the results and improvements as I continue treatment.

Over the past five years I woke up each morning with a burning feeling in my stomach that began the night before. My indigestion was so bad that I was taking medication for it in the morning and in the evening, as well as eating at least four Tums before bed. I structured my eating habits around how bad my stomach was going to feel. I have had stomach issues for years that were diagnosed as IBS. So, I already limited myself on certain foods. When the indigestion flared up, I only ate bland foods and avoided restaurants. My discomfort from my indigestion has increased over the years and became unbearable. The indigestion and upset stomach, coupled with a sudden weight gain and fatigue led me here. I received no answers from my MD and for years I figured I had nothing to lose.
I am so glad that I decided to come here. I began with a diet change that has made me much healthier and a few supplements. Within a few weeks I began feeling better. My energy has increased and my stomach is much improved. I no longer take Tums and occasionally will take a Prilosec, which hopefully will be ending soon! I am so relieved to not have to worry about how everything I eat will hurt me. This has been a great experience so far and I would recommend it to anyone!
When I came to the doctor I had acid reflux and leg cramps at night. When I came in from work I didn’t sleep well at all. After being treated here I do not have legs cramps anymore, the acid reflux is gone and I get a good night sleep. I would like to thank the doctors. I would also like to thank my wife for recommending me to come.

When I first came to Dr. Debease, I felt all hope and energy level was impossible. I am a dialysis patient and it had taken a toll on me. I had no energy, but since I started Alternacare, my energy level has just improved greatly and I don’t have headaches anymore. So, I would encourage anyone, don’t just settle for and take your medical doctor’s word as the last option. I am not saying don’t see your medical doctor, but seek other options. It works and I am glad I did.
M.Z.
I am very happy because in two weeks of treatments, I no longer have headaches, and my leg pain has gotten better. I am able sleep through the night. I really didn’t believe that I would get better because I have suffered with back pain for years. I feel better, I walk better, and eat better. My leg pain has improved also. I am so impressed. I sent my mother and sister a copy of the newsletter, hoping they will be able to visit such a place in the state of Maryland. I am looking forward to the next progress of my new me. I have also lost weight.
D.S.
I have lost ten pounds and one pant size in three weeks on the Liver Enhancement Diet. I also had trouble sleeping before and took Ambien. I am now completely off of Ambien and sleeping better. My hormones are improving as well.

I first came to Dr. Rob and Alternacare because I was having trouble sleeping through the night, which resulted in extremely low energy throughout the day. Dr. Rob came highly recommended from a friend of my wife’s, so with my wife urging, I decided to become a patient. From the initial tests and various examinations, I started taking the specific nutritional supplements recommended by Dr. Rob with the goal of getting a good night sleep. My results were not immediate, as the body takes time to repair itself, but after months my sleep improved and my energy is better. Through it all Dr. Rob was determined to find the best solution that would work for me.
The entire staff was always helpful and courteous throughout this journey.
Thanks to everyone.

When I first came to Alternacare I was tired, overweight, couldn’t sleep well, had food cravings, had very low energy, I could get out of breath easily. Life was just very uncomfortable for me. I also was bloated and had swollen ankles.
Since beginning my appointments about three months ago I’ve lost weight, I started at two hundred and twenty-six pounds and now I am at two hundred and eight pounds. I no longer have swollen ankles or bloating. The severe mucous and drainage has stopped. The migraines I used to get are very rare. Now a good night’s rest is no longer a stranger to me. My energy level has increased tremendously, to the point where an afternoon nap is no longer necessary. Light exercise is something to look forward to rather than something that drained what little energy I had. Food cravings are gone. I’m feeling like a new person who enjoys eating, living and has general sense of well-being.
I am so grateful to Dr. Poli and the people at Alternacare. I am most grateful that I chose to come to Alternacare. Thank you everyone!
J.S.
After starting treatment at Alternacare I feel great! I have lost twenty-one pounds so far. I am also sleeping better, and my sweating has improved. All in all I feel great!!!!
D.B.
When I first came to Alternacare I was really tired, I hurt all over, I was weepy and fatalistic and simply depressed. I was sleeping every afternoon for two or three hours. I couldn’t grasp a glass and set it back down, I couldn’t even go upstairs in our home. Even doing the laundry wore me out. I would have to sleep for two hours after I did the laundry. My shoulders hurt so bad I couldn’t move my head from side to side or reach for something high. My elbows felt as if they had tendonitis. I had indigestion/reflux all the time and slept sitting up against pillows. My face-sinuses hurt all the time and I was hooked on sinus nose spray.
Now I am ME Again! The only time my hip hurts is at the end of a very long day, but it is not nearly as intense as it was. My energy is improving and I have also lost forty-three pounds and can wear all my old clothes again!

For the past 15 years i have been trying to get my cholesterol in a normal range…
it has never been below 245. My last results 2/18/08 my cholesterol was 290.
I tried everything natural from health food stores and nothing worked. My doctor
pleaded with me to take lipator, but i still refused to take that poison.
I went to Dr. Debease in May as my last resort. After just 1 month I went back for
another cholesterol check, and to my surprise my choleserol dropped an ammazing 99 points….In just 1 month….My total cholesterol was just 191..What a relief…
D. L.
Before I came to Alternacare I was not sleeping well at all. I would wake up twice a night and now I am sleeping all night. I had leg cramps before I started care and now I no longer have leg cramps. I also suffered from acid reflux and that is gone as well.

There were periods in my life where I felt like I was going to die.Four years ago I developed a goiter on my thyroid, three nodules to be exact and hyperthyroidism. I could not tolerate sugar or flour products of any kind without feeling like I was going to jump out of my skin and heart palpitations that were very frightening, so I started going to various allopathic doctors to determine a treatment plan for my disease state. The term Nuclear medicine got tossed around in order to determine the course of action the doctors would take or worse having my thyroid taken out.
I decided that was not the avenue I wanted to pursue, but when I chose not to go that path I was chastised and humiliated within the medical field, as if I were stupid. I knew nutritional healing worked. I firmly believe in God's word that herbs and food help to heal the body.
So when I saw the workshop Dr. DeBease was giving in a newspaper article, I leapt at the chance to attend. He said all the things I knew and had studied at great length that through proper nutrition our bodies can heal itself. I had tried for several months to treat myself, but Dr. DeBease held the missing key to my nutrition. The tests he ordered gave him the right tools to reverse my disease rather than slap a Band-Aid fix or throw pharmaceuticals at my problem.
I suffered with; hyperthyroidism, fatigue, numbness in the whole left side of my body, dizzy spells, major heart palpitations, my nail beds had pulled away from the skin and insomnia. To be quite honest there were periods in my life when I felt that I was going to die. My thought process was very skewed. I felt as if I were going to have a mental breakdown at times, knowing all along it was my thyroid creating the confusion, but lacking the tools and knowledge of its exact cause left me feeling desperate. When Dr. DeBease discussed what he believed were causing my problems this is something that no other doctor within a fifty mile radius from here to Atlanta had ever told me… When my test came back he was dead on with his assessment.
Since my treatment began my nodules have gone from three to one in a matter of months. I know in time they will go away completely. My numbness has gone away completely. My heart palpitations have diminished greatly and my fatigue has improved a lot as well. I finally feel like I have my life back. I am just so thankful to have found Dr. DeBease and his wonderful staff that truly care in treating the patient rather than the symptoms.
Leah Stone
I was having leg cramps at night 2 to 3 times a week. Some cramps were so severe I could hardly walk to get my medicine. Since taking 1 tablespoon of electrolytes at night before bed, I have not experienced any cramps.
J. Allen
The program is so individually crafted. I have seen progress slow and steady. This week I visited my medical doctor (after three months on the program) and he was thrilled with the improvement in my health. He lowered my blood pressure meds, reduced the number of times I need to check my blood sugar levels and reduced my blood sugar meds by half. I am healing and becoming the healthy person I was always meant to be. Thanks!
G.G.R Newnan
I came into Alternacare for leg and foot pain. I also experienced numbness in those areas. I have suffered with this pain for over a year. I have been receiving treatment at Alternacare for 4 weeks and I’m very impressed with my results. I wish that I would have come sooner. Now I can walk and sleep without the discomfort.
Rachelle Prevost
I first came to Alternacare in late March. I was very pleased with all the information I received that day. I started the program April 9, 2008. I am so much better today April 30, 2008 and I have lost 9.2lbs. I was suffering with neck pain, low back pain, knee pain and stiffness, and stomach discomfort. I am so pleased my back pain and neck pain is about a 1 now (from scale 1-10) my knee pain is also about a 1. My mobility has greatly improved. My stomach discomfort (gas) has left me. Also I am a diabetic and my sugar reading was 102 points this morning. I am really excited about the program and I am looking forward to the upcoming weeks.
Mary Barber
Hot flashes started after prostate surgery about a year ago, several times a night & during the day. In January 2008 I started treatment at Holistic Health, after about 3-4 weeks the hot flashes occurred only at night. After several months I no longer have hot flashes. I have also lost weight, trimmed down and have more energy.
Thomas Faletto
I went to the Healthy Self Workshop with skepticism and listened to what Dr. Rob had to say. I thought I was in pretty good shape when I started at 7.5 (scale of 1 to 10) and started working with Dr. Rob. I discovered I was only a 4.0 on the scale and wanted to work on my blood pressure, cholesterol, allergies and weight.
a) Blood pressure has slightly improved- But I was on 2 blood pressure medications and now down to ½ of 1 pill.
b) I don’t know about my cholesterol yet because I have not been to my regular doctor.
c) Weight- I started at 231 lbs. and got down to 198 lbs. in 8 weeks.
d) Allergies- my allergies are almost gone completely and I’m completely off the Claritin D and steroidal nasal sprays. I got through the 2008 Pollen- spring season with only 1 headache (minor) without chemical medications.
e) On a scale of 1-10 I am an 8.5.
Bottom line is- let Dr. Rob help you to help yourself. If you do you will not regret it.
Mike Wineman
When I started the treatments I found so much improvement in my over all body. I was suffering from hot/cold flashes for 6 months and could not get any rest. I woke up every 1-2 hours during the evening. My family doctor offered no help. Then during the day whenever I would eat food (any kind), even water, I would break out into a sweat for 10 minutes or more, then get very cold. After my first visit I was sleeping 4-6 hours per night and I got rid of the hot/cold flashes by my 2nd week. By the time I had my 3rd visit I was off the medication I used to help me walk and for leg cramps. I had been on this medicine for 5 years. This week I started to walk and found more energy. Each week is new and all positive.
Sandra Williams
I have been going to Alternacare for stomach pain. The doctor discovered that I was constipated and had a parasite. I went through 2-3 weeks of treatment. I feel much better. It was like a miracle. I feel like a new person and the staff is just great. Thanks for all that you do to make peoples life a little better. I was told by other people and co-workers I should not use this care. I told them “don’t knock it until you try it”. Now that I am better they are asking questions. Thank God for people like Dr. Rob and Dr. Poli.

Having suffered for eight years with an eye disease, I was given an only choice - eye surgery to keep from going blind.
I came to Alternacare for a second opinion. After seven weeks, I am beginning to see better. I still have a good ways to go, but I now have hope that my vision can be improved.
NJ
I have been coming to Alternacare for 3 weeks and my joint pain, night sweats & not sleeping all night has gone away.
I feel so much better. I can get out of bed with no hurting, I also feel better during the day because I am not so tired.
I love this place. The staff and doctors are wonderful.
Lisa Martin
I came to Dr. DeBease a few months ago with a multitude of symptoms: sleeplessness, a full body of toxins from extremely strong antibiotics, prednisone & a number of other medications which I am happy to say I am no longer taking per my medical doctor’s advice, since I am doing so well with the supplements I’m taking from Alternacare. I haven’t felt this good in over 15 years, and had just about given up hope of ever getting well.
It is so refreshing to have doctors that believe in taking care of our body’s problems and not just symptoms as they occur. What a concept!
I am so thankful to them that I don’t know what to do other than tell everybody about this fantastic practice that really is in business of helping the body to heal itself and seeing people live a life that is whole and as pain free as possible. I love the whole staff!!!
Rachel Kirk
The supplements that I have been on have done wonder for me. I am feeling much better, sleeping longer during the night and very active during the day. The supplement that I am taking agrees with me. The heavy metal in my lab results has come down considerably. I am very encouraged to continue on the program.
Vera Seals
I’ve always been told I needed to lose weight in order to be healthy. Dr. Rob has helped me see that I need to be healthy in order to lose weight.
After years of unsuccessfully trying to lose weight I am finally on my way. In less than three months I have lost 20 pounds and gone down two sizes. But that isn’t even the best part.
I have suffered with knee pain for several years. Going up a flight of stairs and getting up out of a chair were so painful. Now that my body is no longer destroying itself, my knee pain is virtually gone. I can easily rise from a seated position and climbing stairs are no problem.
My overall energy level is remarkably better.
I still have a long way to go but Dr. Rob may have added years to my life. He has certainly added life to my years.
R.C.
After about 4 weeks I lost 8 lbs, I feel so much better; Alternacare has help me-a-lot. Dr. Poli is great. Still have a ways to go. Thanks Alternacare.
Marie McDaniel
For approximately 15 years I had intense dizziness so bad I could not move about. I was awakened by it. Nausea came with it at times. I spent many days in bed or chairs. During these years I sought medical attention, nothing helped. These spells (I call them) were very frequent.
I discovered Alternate Holistic Health Care and went to them because I had a problem with my lower back. I did not mention the dizziness for I felt there was nothing could be done. Then one day I had an appointment I could not keep for I was again bed ridden dizzy. I took a later appointment and explained why I could not keep the appointment. Dr. Poli gave me some supplements and a back and neck treatment, at that time I was somewhat dizzy after adjustment, I stood up and I felt strange and my dizziness was gone. It has been a long time gone which to me is hard to believe but it’s true and I shall be forever grateful.

In less than 2 months treatment, I have seen increases energy, vast improvement in my digestive issues. Also, I previously had a big problem with yeast plaque patches in my scalp for which dermatologists said was chronic and not curable. It is now completely cleaned up…. I feel better at this point than I have in the past 3 years.

I started coming into “Alternacare Physical Medicine and Rehab" because of my high cholesterol, as I had suffered with it for many years. I also had pain from my head to my toes. I had a lot of stress in my life, and that caused my whole body to ache. I would have constant burning pains in my neck and shoulders. I had suffered with those pains for 6 months before I started my care. My hip had given me problems for 7 years. I had been told that my hip pain was from scar tissue and the only way to make it better was to have surgery to take it out. I had problems with my knees as well. I could not put any pressure on them or bend them without incredible pain. I had problems with my eyes too. They were always dry and itchy. I had tried every kind of eye drops and nothing worked at all. I went to other doctors before I started coming into this clinic. All that they would give me was medicine and I am not a medicine taker. I would take it at night just so that I could sleep, but I would suffer through the day with the pain.
I had been under care at “Alternacare Physical Medicine and Rehab" for only 2 weeks before I started to feel much better. I felt like I had a new body that was pain free. All my pains were a lot better if not gone. My eyes were completely back to normal. I was able to stand and bend without my knees hurting. I have had my cholesterol checked many times since I started care, and it has been back down to normal range from the extremely high range it was in before I started care.
I think that the care at Alternacare is great. I think that the combination of chiropractic care, massage therapy, and stretching therapy is very beneficial. I think that holistic care is absolutely amazing. I would much rather use a holistic health care method to fix a problem than to just take pain pills to ease the pain.

I had suffered from back pain since 1998. The pains were in my low back, and would move down into my legs after a short time of standing. In 2001, I was placed in a wheel chair to help me get around since I was unable to stand. I started having problems with my shoulders after I was placed in the wheel chair due to pushing myself around. The medical doctor whose care I was under told me that there was nothing I could do for my pain other than taking pain medicines. I was hesitant at first to take the medicine, but the pain got to be so bad, I had to. I was averaging 2 pain pills a day for the pains.
I brought my Mother into "Alternacare Physical Medicine and Rehab", while I was here with her I had a free consultation. I had been a RN for years, but I did not know a lot about chiropractic care. I was very leery. I decided that I would try anything to get better. Once I came in for my first visit I knew that I was going to get better here. After my second treatment I was able to walk and not use my wheel chair!!!! I have been coming to Alternacare Physical Medicine and Rehab now for 3 weeks. I am still wheel chair free, and I am no longer taking ANY pain medicines. I did not think that anything could help me with the pains I had, but I am so grateful that I gave chiropractic care a chance!
Marie Young
For a year and a half (547 days) I have have been suffering with low back pain, neck pain and leg pain.
The pain and spasms would be in my back then move down my knee. The pain in my neck was all over my neck area. I could not sleep more than 3-4 hours per night. I could not even do my house work. Mopping the floor would put me down for days.
I went to a doctor that prescribed me different pain medications.
But after going to Alternacare Health & Rehab I started seeing results in 2 weeks, only 14 days. I first noticed my sleep was so much better. Then 1 month after that I noticed big difference. Now I am able to do my house work and sleep and now I am not so tired as I used to be. Also, I am able to move my head again.
Katherine Mull
About 6 months ago I started to have many strokes, which followed severe dizziness, vertigo and back pain. I couldn’t walk by my self. When I was at home I had to walk with a walker and when I was out in public I had to hold my husbands arm, just to get around. It didn’t matter if I was lying down or if I was sitting up, I was dizzy no matter what.
I went to different doctors and was prescribed 2 different medications for dizziness. Nothing helped me.
Then, I attended a health screening at Big Lots and that is where I met a representative from Alternacare Health & Rehab. The representative told me that maybe they could help me with my health problems. At 5:30 that evening after my first treatment, I didn’t even dare getting up without my husband around, because I thought I would fall. But I decided to get up and amazingly I was not dizzy. I felt better after my first treatment. The treatments I received here have helped me so much.
Helen Osborne
For years I had suffered with numbness and tightness in my shoulders and neck. For some months later I started to experience sharp pain in those areas. I started to have unrelenting pain in my shoulder and neck area a few weeks ago. It was a sharp pain in front of the left shoulder and then tightness and numbness extended all the way to both shoulders through my upper back. I finally went to a doctor where they prescribed me some muscle relaxers, that did not help much.
After 2 weeks of treatment at Alternacare Health & Rehab the unrelenting pain is gone. I'm not as tense and tight in my muscles as before I started treatments. Some of my stiffness if gone as well. The great thing is, is that I can sit straight again.
Ester Teagle
For years I had been suffering with Fibromyalgia and did not even know it. In the fall, I slowly started to have the symptoms of Fibromyalgia. Finally, I had trouble walking, bending, picking things up, I had weakness in my hands and I couldn't even turn my head.
I went to a doctor and got prescribed Altram, Prozac and other types of medications. No matter how much medications they prescribed me and no matter how much I took, the pain was still there.
I started coming to Alternacare Health & Rehab and after having had 3 weeks of treatment I started to see results. And once I saw the first set of results, more results started rolling in like a domino effect. Alternacare has given me my life back. Now I have no problems walking. I can pick up things, bend, I don't drop things anymore and I can turn my head.
Alternacare has really helped my life.
Diane Golac
I suffered with pain all over my body before I started my care at “Alternacare Health and Rehab”. I had horrible pain in my neck, shoulders, and low back. As well as, I suffered from a sinus headache everyday. I had a constant stiffness and aching in my shoulders and neck. I couldn’t turn my neck without pain. My lower back always had a strain on it and always seem to hurt. I could not move without some kind of pain. I was unable to sleep well at night because of all the pain.
I took over the counter pain medicines to help me sleep when the pains where at their worse. I had suffered with these pains for years. I visited doctors and went through physical therapy. It helped for a short period of time and then I would be right back in the pain I was in before. A doctor told me that it was Fibromyalgia, and that all I could do was to take prescription pain pills. I am scared of prescription pain pills, and just stuck to my over the counter pills. I would have to take Tylenol most every day, and that would only calm my pains.
I had never been to a Chiropractor and said that I never would. I heard so many great things about “Alternacare Health and Rehab” I thought I would give it a chance. Within the first week of my care at “Alternacare Health and Rehab” I could tell a difference. My headaches went away completely. Then after just a couple more weeks of care my neck, shoulders, and low back were incredibly better. Since being under care I have tons more energy and sleep much better. I have not had a night were I didn’t sleep, since I started my care. My range of motion has improved drastically. My sinuses are better then they have been in years.
I love the care at “Alternacare Health and Rehab”. They cover everything. They truly want to help people and fix health problems, not just give pain medicines to mask the problem.
I began coming to “Alternacare Health and Rehab” in July 2004. A friend, who had listened to my complaints of migraines, neck, shoulder and back pains and difficulties with my TMJ, referred me to this clinic. As a teacher, my stress level was very high and my body had felt the impact of that stress since my youngest child had been born six years ago. I took headache medications, all the brands of “PM” pills and even had a few muscle relaxers, at times. I thought our mattress was to blame since my symptoms returned each night. The TMJ problem caused my jaw to click and lock almost daily. I bought an over the counter mouth guard to help sleep with, in hopes of stopping the grinding or clinching of my teeth.
After only nine adjustments, I was symptom free! I feel great! After, seeing how the treatments work so well, I have had my three children start treatment. I am looking forward to a winter with no visits to the pediatrician for ADHD, tummy aches, colds, leg cramps, or constant nosebleeds.
On many days, I still have stress as a teacher, but my body handles it much better now that I have my spine aligned and not pinching those precious nerves that need to tell my body how to respond.
I feel wonderful, and by the way, I didn't even need to buy a new mattress!
Shandell Woods
I have had lower back pain since the early 1970’s. It was sometimes worse then others times, but there was always a constant dull ache in my lower back. Other times, after I aggravated it somehow, it would be hard for me to move. I would have sharp pains in my lower back, which caused me to be very stiff and my body to ache.
I would have to take Ibuprofen or Tylenol whenever my back pains were at their worst. I had been to several doctors and was told everything from that it was arthritis to I needed back surgery. I did not want to have the surgery, but knew that I had to do something. I had been to several chiropractors over the years as well. That always seemed to help with the pain at that moment, but then the pains would always come back.
I started my care at “Alternacare Health and Rehab” and after only a month I was able to tell a difference. I was no longer sore or aching. I do not have that constant dull ache that I had suffered with for more than 30 years. I was able to move better, and I could sleep better.
I think that the difference between the care I had received before “Alternacare Health and Rehab” and the care I received here is that at “Alternacare Health and Rehab” you have everything working together. I really liked the benefits of having a Medical Doctor, Chiropractor, Athletic Trainer, and Massage Therapy at the same location. I think that “Alternacare Health and Rehab” is a wonderful clinic, and they can help a lot of people with a lot of different problems.
Joe Zito
I was in a car accident when I was in 3rd grade. Ever since then, every 2 to 3 years, my back would go out. When my back was out I would have a twinge and severe pain in my lower back. I was unable to walk straight which put strains on other areas of my body. When my back would go out I would not go to the doctor I would just suffer for 2 or 3 weeks and then it would be better. When my back was out I would have to take up to 3 Alieve a day, and that didn’t help. I was unable to go about my normal life during those times, because of the pain. The last time my back went out it was right before I was going on a trip and I was ready to try anything to get it better.
After only 2 treatments at “Alternacare Health and Rehab” I could tell a difference, and then waking up on the 3rd day I was able to get out of bed and walk with no pain. I have had no problems since I started my care at “Alternacare Health and Rehab”. I am completely pain free. I use to have to wait weeks to have the symptoms ease and then gradually go away, but with the care I got the pain was gone in just a few days, and I have had no trouble since I started care.
I love how at “Alternacare Health and Rehab” they treat all parts of the problem. They are truly concerned and in dept. They listen to what you have to say. I love how they have everything you need to feel better all at one clinic. You can see the Medical Doctor, the Chiropractor, Massage Therapist, and have physical therapy all at the all in the same location. The combination of all the different services works wonderful. I am very happy with the results that I have had since I started my care at “Alternacare Health and Rehab”.

I started coming into “Alternacare Health and Rehab” because I had heard such great things about the clinic, and thought that they could help me.
I had suffered with restless nights and stiffness for years, and was ready to try anything to get better. I had suffered with the restless nights for 10 years before I started my care here. I would only nap at night. The most I would sleep at a time would be an hour or two.
Over the years, I started having a lot of stiffness, and it was very hard for me to move around. I had to start walking with a cane 2 years ago to help me walk and move better.
After my first treatment at “Alternacare Health and Rehab” I was able to sleep the whole night through that night. I was amazed. I had family members who came into my bedroom the next morning to check on me because I was not up before everyone else. Then only a week later I could see a huge difference. I was not as stiff and I was able to move around be
