My name is Carlos Mira. Three months ago, I went to my Chiropractor Dr. Rodman regarding a lower back pain that has been present for the past 3 or 4 years. I have a L4 and L5 which are not exactly as they should be. He said, “Let’s take an X-ray of your waist area to see exactly what is happening there. He did and that is when he noticed a shaded area that didn’t seem normal to him and said to me: This looks like an abdominal aortic aneurysm and I should go to your doctor with this find. He did, and then the internist decided to order an ultra sound of the area. She had just finished giving me a routine check-up and clean bill of health. The ultrasound confirmed the suspicious nature of the shade that Dr. Rodman had detected and thanks to him, the aneurysm has been repaired by a cardiovascular surgeon and hopefully all danger has been left behind. ALL THANKS TO THE EYE OF A CHIROPRACTOR WHO COULD HAVE JUST SAID THIS IS NOT MY FIELD OF EXPERTISE AND LET IT GO. THANK YOU DR. RODMAN.

I am truly grateful.

Thank you Dr. Rodman.

I am a Crossfit Competitor and I have been an athlete all my life, after qualifying for Nationals, I started to experience pain in my neck and shoulders, I couldn’t even sleep at night. After an MRI, my Neurosurgeon wanted to operate and do a fusion on my neck, he told me I will never be able to compete again.

I was really depressed and scared, the pain was getting worse by the day. I was fortunate enough to meet Todd, I started to go in for therapy every week, the first 2 weeks my mobility improved and the pain decreased. He truly saved my life, I am back in training now, and I am looking to go back in competitions this coming April 2011.

I can’t even find the right words to say thank you, what you have done for me is a miracle. You are not just an amazing doctor, but a caring and kind person. You gave me back the opportunity to do what I love most, Training, I will always be grateful.

I have had a pain in my right shoulder ever since I could remember that came and went given the day, especially when I did Bench Presses at the gym. After two 10 minutes sessions with Dr. Rodman, I went to the gym and it was if the pain was never there.

I am truly grateful.

Thank you Dr. Rodman.

Being a two time breast cancer survivor and more recently a thyroid cancer survivor, I can honestly say I have had (and still have) my share of doctor appointments, blood work, surgeries and scans.

The thought of another Dr. visit for “something else” is scary.

That is when I turned to Dr. Rodman. My back and neck hadn’t been adjusted in a while and I was feeling a bit stiff. During the first visit I mentioned that my hand was very ‘tight’. I assumed it was carpal tunnel because I live on my phone and work as a Technology Teacher full time.

Dr. Rodman told me about the Graston Technique. I really didn’t believe it at the time, but after one visit it was more mobile and now four weeks later, I am pain free. He also said that the scar on my neck (from the Thyroidectomy) would benefit from this Technique. I had a follow up visit with my ENT Surgeon and he was in awe how fast I am healing.

Having a massage in the office was an added bonus!

Thank you Dr. Rodman.

I had massive rotator cuff repair surgery in December. In addition to physical therapy twice weekly, I began seeing Dr. Rodman 3 weeks after surgery.

I was experiencing severe pain in my upper back and neck. Dr. Rodman used Active Release Technique, heat and Graston tools. I am very happy to report that I am entirely pain free for the first time in nearly a year. Dr. Rodman is very empathic and caring. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their quality of life.

Thank you Dr. Rodman.

About a month ago I had pretty intense tingling in my right arm and my
right thumb felt like I had a shot of novacaine to the tip. I called my
insurance company and they informed me that there were only two chiropractors
close to me and neither had convenient office hours.

I then found Dr. Rodman. He has been a life saver. My right arm no longer tingles and my right thumb is back to its old self again. Not only am I a full time employee I am also a full time student. All the sitting makes my back and shoulders very sore and stiff. Dr. Rodman has shown me stretches and exercises that I can do on my own to help relieve most of the pain I experience on a daily basis. I see him for weekly adjustments, stretching and muscle release.

Today I was in heaven with the heat/stim combo! I can honestly say that my favorite hour of the week, hands down, is the hour I spend with Dr. Rodman! He is a god-send and his office staff are pretty darn wonderful too!

Dr. Rodman,

I met you at the Grapplers Quest event this past Saturday. I had refereed all day long and my lower back was in severe pain. I have been dealing with this issue for months. Even missing training sessions due to the pain. The pain is gone and I want to thank you again for your great work. I was back training jiu jitsu and muay thai today with no pain! I would love to be a patient of yours and continue with Chiropractic care so that I can stay pain free and perform my best.

Thanks Again

Dr. Rodman initially started helping my severe back pain by a process I had never heard of – Flexion Distraction table and Active Release Technique (ART) for the muscle contractions I experience constantly. After only one visit I felt relief and after the second visit I was able to return to exercise by twice weekly golf. The relief was remarkable.

Dr. Rodman has an excellent approach method which makes the patient feel extremely comfortable and completely at ease. To anyone who has a lot of pain – please visit Dr. Rodman

Recently I gave birth to my first child by c-section. My recovery was extremely tough, and my main problem was severe shoulder pain. I was told by my OB that this was referred pain due to air that is pumped through your body during the procedure. She said it would subside on its own, and just to continue with my pain meds.

Dr.Rodman treated me for this pain, and gave me relief. Relief that I needed in the worst way. Taking care of a newborn with shoulder pain is almost impossible. Dr. Rodman helped me to better enjoy the first few weeks with my new baby!

I was diagnosed with spondylolisthesis of the lumbar spine and cervical strain in the upper back. These problems caused considerable pain in my back and legs, and numbness in one foot which, at times, made it difficult to walk. I had been to two other chiropractors for treatments without success. Fortunately, before I gave up, I found Dr. Rodman. His knowledge and techniques have made a significant improvement in just a few visits. I hope to be back on the golf course in the near future.

After almost 1 year of physical therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic and laser treatment and even a medial nerve block for lower back pain (without much result), I was convinced I would have to live with constant pain, since surgery was not a consideration for me; However since being treated by Dr. Todd my mobility is better, I am able to have more restful sleep and I no longer think about pain with every move. It’s been a long road for me, but with Dr. Todd’s help I am definitely getting there.

I have been a patient of Dr. Rodman’s for the past three weeks. When I first decided to see a chiropractor my shoulder was in a lot of pain which was waking me up throughout the night. Dr. Rodman took the time to explain the different muscles that may be involved and he told me everything he was going to do before working on me.

After the first session, my shoulder was hurting much less and I was able to move it more freely. During my session with Dr. Rodman he showed me exercises to do that will help with my mobility. I can do these exercises at home to help my progress. I have now had a few sessions and I am feeling much better and after each visit the pain is much less.

Dr. Rodman has a nice office in a new facility and is always caring and concerned. He takes his time and listens. I am confident that I have chosen the right therapy for my injury and I am already able to sleep without pain.

Last summer I finally reached a point that I could no longer play competitive golf. I was diagnosed with herniated discs C5-C6 C6-C7.

After MRI’s, Neurosurgeons wanted to fuse vertebrae and replace discs. First I went for a series of 3 epidural shots that were ineffective. I had also tried Chiropractors that only hurt me worse. It had become so painful that I couldn’t tilt my head to finish a soda, I even dabbled with acupuncture and would go home for two days with needles still in my neck and back.

I could not sleep for more than a consecutive hour or so before I was awakened with my arm on fire. This usually happened 6 or 7 times a night.

Our fitness director, where I work, recommended I see Dr. Rodman. He saw me right away and worked on my neck like no Doctor had before. He also made me a promise if he couldn’t help me he would be the first to let me know. In three weeks I have my golf life back. It took a lot of work, on his and my part, but I’m so excited to be able to do the things I love…Pain Free.

Thanks!
