All hail the home visiting Dr. Chase Gentry. I told a friend that my entire body was messed up but that going into the chiropractor or going in for a massage, just didn't seem essential enough during a pandemic. Thus, it's been over a year since anyone in our household has been adjusted and we were all paying for it. Constant *crunchy* sounding joints during movement and stretching. Constant complaining of nerve pain, muscle pain and headaches. Neck and shoulder stiffness making it impossible to find a comfortable sleep position, disrupting the ability to fall asleep quickly or soundly.
That same friend told me about Dr. Gentry at New Spine Chiropractic. He has an office but also, does home visits. He wears an N95 mask, sanitizes everything after he sets up in your home. Basically does everything possible to take all the precautions for Covid safety.
If you have more than one person needing services, he offers a discount. That could be relations or even just friends or neighbors. He worked on my husband first and then me, leaving us both questioning why we ever thought chiropractic maintenance wasn't essential enough. We could have avoided months of pain and complaints. Especially with the home visit option.
Dr. Gentry popped things back into place, that I didn't know needed to be or could be popped back into place. I've had hundreds of hours of service between chiropractor, accupuncture, massage and physical therapy. Yet he had methods and results that I haven't seen before. The results being immediate relief that melted me like butter. For instance, the outside of my shoulder area, where you actually apply your own pressure against his arm position and *pop pop pop pop pop pop." My upper ribs were all out and pulling everything up, causing more issues on my shoulders and the worst headaches. Those were all fire work sounding adjustments as well. My lower back had some gnarly pops, too. He used some gadgets after (names escape me) that were fantastic, as well as a pinch and pull method of quick massage. Adjustments only happening after he took my vitals, as he would in clinic.
Did I mention I'm almost 6.5 months pregnant? He made sure to do enough pressure and adjustments to help my quality of life with pain, yet not so much pressure because ... well... pregnant.
His way of thought is getting you adjusted but also, helping you change your lifestyle so that adjustment isn't always needed. He showed us stretches to keep up on, to help with the specific problem areas that we have.
We are definitely having him come back, I know we'll need more appointments until we get anywhere close to being able to manage this with fewer adjustments. I have spine issues from an old MVA, that I was told were permanent, so I don't ever expect to be chiro/massage free. However, the additional stretching and diet/vitamin suggestions were both informative and a sign of his overall genuine care for his patients well being vs being appointment hungry.
I couldn't echo my friends recommendation more strongly, when I say that you can't go wrong with Dr. Chase Gentry. His knowledge and skill is top notch. Whether in-home or in-clinic, you'll be treated with the same professional care.
Last thing, for in-home visits he left us with a bill/receipt to submit to our insurance after for reimbursement. In-office visits, insurance is done through the office. Easy peasy, lemon squeezey. read more
