I just finished my 14th visit after three months of care with Cecilia Park, and I feel like I am a…read morenew person. I graduated to now only having to do maintenance.
When I first came to her office, it was by chance, as I had exhausted all other options, including an ENT, physical therapist, general practitioner, dentist, and eye doctor. They suggested pills, dietary changes, and hormone adjustments.
I started experiencing sudden dizziness in January despite being in good health and working out regularly. It was debilitating, and I was desperate to find a solution as I could barely function and work. After researching on Yelp and YouTube, I discovered Cecilia's office and decided to try upper cervical care.
Cecilia is very professional, highly skilled, passionate about her profession, making people feel better naturally and I had full confidence in her expertise. She gave me my life back. When I first came, I was feeling horrible, depressed, anxious and desperate. I had no idea what was upper cervical care and I wasn't sure if I was making the right decision to sign up for the 12 week program. Best decision EVER!
I learned about C1 and C2 misalignment, which was my issue. After the first alignment, I felt much better right away. Then your body heals itself but not in the order you would expect it. In the 2 months mark, I had back spasms I never had before, then my shoulders were inward, all kinds of weird things but that was my body adjusting to the new alignement and I am back to standing straight.
There is no cracking or popping, which I hate. It's very gentle. You don't feel it really.
Be aware that it's a process and not healed overnight. You may go through retracing, which is normal, and Cecilia will help you manage the symptoms. Initially, you visit twice a week, then once a week, and eventually every other week. I graduated to once a month because I'm holding my alignment, and the longer you hold it, the better you heal. Sometimes I went and she would do the same tests she would do weekly to see if I was holding and I was surprised if she wasn't actually adjusting me but then I learn the less she needs to adjusts after the initial visit, the better.
What's crazy is that I had symptoms starting years ago that I thought were independent. Twenty years ago, my hip started popping; one of my ribs popped from coughing; I began having ringing in my right ear ten years ago, debilitating migraines six years ago, and occasional lower back pain, with the most recent symptom being dizziness. Now, I feel like 95% of my symptoms are gone. I waited three months to post this review because I wanted to wait on my results to post with confidence. If you have any unexplained symptoms, run to this office. (Headache, migraine, dizziness, tinnitus, etc). If you aren't a candidate for it, she will tell you straight up. I drove all the way from the west side. At first I was dreading the commute but I got used to it, loved feeling better each time and I started discovering the area. Gogobop is very good restaurant in the same building.
At first I parked in the structure which is $6 after validation but you can find street parking that's cheaper.
