I noticed it's been a while since Kehoe Chiropratic was reviewed. What a shame! It deserves front page news. After having lived in the Monterey Peninsula for three years I found myself in dire need of some body treatment for a very sprained neck. I couldn't turn my head to the right for over three weeks and the pain wouldn't go away. When I lived in the Bay Area I was attended to by a "bone cracker." No matter the aliment the treatment was always the same-- a lot of bone cracking.
I met Rich Kehoe one day on the golf course about a year ago. Enjoyed our round of golf and learned he was a long time Carmel Chiropractor. Ironically, last week we were playing again, explained my injury and Rich went into action calling his office and setting up the appointment, Wow talk about service...
Next day I went in to an initial visit and treatment, about an hour total. In the past I never saw the doc for more than 5 minutes hands on. Here I sat in a chair while he probed for pain points, neck, shoulders, upper back etc. We discussed history and then he had his assistant do a vibrating massage on the affected areas. Next came a heat pad. Finally the Doc came in and inexperienced first had the (my words) magic incline device. A mechanical marvel that lets him raise, lower, the entire table. Well not really a table but more like a 6 ft bench with face rest and a wild looking Lego, metal engineering frame beneath to allow him to raise or lower specific sections of the table to work on certain body areas. Hard to explain. Zero pain when he did this , maybe a bit noisy but no sweat. While doing any movements he explained what he was doing each time. Very gentle process.
I know TMI. But hey, the area has lots of Chiropractors and choosing one isn't easy. And each person is different in terms of what they want. I'd say the Doc is a Crawl, Walk, Run guy. He'll use the best treatment based on his assessment of your ailment and your body. If you're not a candidate for the bone crack he won't do it. I went twice - 2 X in 3 days. He said to me "I won't need to schedule you for another visit." Seriously? Most want to see you 3x a week.....honest man here. But the proof is in the pudding, I feel great.
Give him a call. read more
