I was recommended to see a chiropractor by my pain specialist . He thought one could better treat me for my impinged nerves in my neck and shoulder radiating down my arm causing severe pain and increasing my migraines better than he could. He was right. But, I think it had to be Dr. Rice. When I first started treatment my pain was a 10 - 3 weeks ago. He told me it could take2-3 months of a multi- faceted treatment plan for a full recovery. That my pain would fluctuate, which it has. But, By week 2 the pain was 8-9. By end of 3rd week 6-7. I know I have a ways to go. Especially, with the migraines. But, know we'll get there.Dr. Rice has helped me so much. From the beginning he was very compassionate, gentle,and sensitive to my pain. Although, very nervous on my first visit and slightly skeptical. He had won me over by end of my initial evaluation and first very gentle adjustment. He is extremely knowledgeable on how our spinal cord when out of alignment ,can and does affect our whole body. He is a excellent teacher as well as practitioner. As evidenced by his frequent work shops, and all the positive comments from other patients I've met and talked to. They all have high praise for him and how much he has helped them. I echo that praise, and sure will so even more when I complete my recovery. High praises also for every one in the office! Very short wait period,very upbeat and positive office. read more

I'm a 64 year old male and have suffered on and off for 25 years with neck and lower back pain. I've had three surgeries, nine injections, fusion, tried braces, TENS, creams and lotions and chiropractors over the years. Two months ago the pain became truly debilitating 24/7. My issues include, but are not limited to, Cervical and Lumbar Radiculopathy, Lumbar Spondylosis, disc issues and pain radiating into legs and fingers. Out of desperation, I went to see Dr. Rice. Honestly, I wasn't expecting much in the way of pain relief since over the years I had been to three other chiropractors, but this time was different. Through a series of manipulations my pain is no longer acute and 24/7. On the pain scale I went from a 8/9 to a 3/4. I would recommend giving Dr. Rice a chance. It could improve your quality of life. I should also mention that the staff is friendly, the premises clean and my appointments were always punctual. Very professional. read more

Back in July, I got out of bed one morning and my glute and hamstring muscles were cramping so badly I could hardly stand up or walk. Over 2 months of treating this problem as pulled muscles, someone suggested it could be in my back. Had an MRI and saw a neurosurgeon who told me the MRI didn't show any vertebrae or disc damage and he wasn't sure what was causing my problem. Finally, someone suggested that I see a chiropractor, so I made an appointment with Dr. Rice. He X-ray'd my back and pointed out a bend in my lower spine that was most likely the cause. Within one month of treatments I was no longer walking with a cane and in much less pain. I still have nerve weakness in my legs, but I notice small improvements every week. He warned me when he began treatment that this was not going to be a quick fix, but he wasn't going to give up - and he hasn't. Everyone at Rice Family Chiropractic is friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend them!!! read more

I highly recommend Rice Chiropractic. I have been in chiropractic care for about the last 15 years. I believe that its very easy in our daily lives to get "out of balance" something as simple as carrying my purse around, to picking up my grandchildren can cause it. I believe its important to be adjusted on a regular basis. I have been with Dr. Rice for going on 5 yrs. He not only does the adjustments, he provided an at home system of care that has helped me immensely. Through the years we have talked about everything from A to Z. I cant begin to tell you how much he has helped me with every day life situations. He listens!!!!! Dr. Rice knows his job without a doubt, but I feel GOD uses him to reach out and help his patients in other areas of life. In the 5 years I have been to his office, I have been impressed with the professional way they run the office. Thank you Dr. Rice, Nancy and the rest of his staff. May GOD continue to use you! read more

I have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease since 2010. Some of the many symptoms of the disease include stiffness, soreness, and aches and pains in the joints, neck and back. As I already take several medications, the last thing I wanted to do is take more pills to mask the pain. Dr. Rice and team have taken a proactive approach with my condition and have given me some new hope. Since coming to see Dr. Rice my pain/stiffness issues have improved by 60%. I have been seeing various chiropractors over the past 18 years consistently. In that span of time I have had two chiropractors that have had significant impact on how I feel. Probably not by coincidence they were both maximized living chiropractors. All chiropractors are not the same! Thank you Dr. Rice and team for not only what you do but how you do it! And may the Lord richly bless you all. read more

Normally I do not write reviews but Dr. Rice at RFC is a wonderful compassionate healthcare provider. Without hesitation, I can state that he will correctly diagnose your problem and provide a comprehensive health care plan to help his patients lead a healthy and productive life style. For years I have suffered intense migraines and high blood pressure. Within a few weeks the migraines have diminished; in addition, my blood pressure has stabilized as well. The health care corrective action plan works ! We need more providers like Dr. Rice who focus on the patients needs and not so much on the almighty dollar. Dr Rice's primary objective is to offer the best therapy care and I personally highly recommend his services. No fact checking needed - he is the best in the area for chiropractic care.

I'm 76 years old and have been under chiropractic care all my life. My father, uncle, 2 cousins and my two sons are chiropractors. I live in the upper peninsula of Michigan and have been visiting my daughter and family here in Venice for the last 2 months. After researching and reading other reviews I decided to treat with Dr. Rice. Because I hadn't had an adjustment since last seeing my chiropractor at home, I was experiencing low back, hip and left leg discomfort. I noticed improvement right after my very first adjustment with Dr. Rice and have continued to get adjusted with great results. Thank you Dr. Rice and your very friendly, helpful staff. I appreciate your skilled and caring hands. Kristin Gischia read more

I have been seeing Dr. Rice recently because of weakness and pain in my right knee and hip. He's helped me in the past when I've experience pain from several of my activities. He has always been able to diagnose the pain and provide relief through his care. Dr. Rice is a pleasant and personable doctor. I always feel better after a visit and treatment. Several times I've needed to come in without an appointment and have been able to get treated when the pain came on after "over doing it" during the previous day. I'd recommend that people experiencing back, leg or neck pain get an evaluation from Dr. Rice as I know that he will be able to determine if your problem is one he can help relieve. read more

Dr. Rice is amazing! My young daughter had a fairly scary situation with a pinched nerve that was causing uncontrollable muscle spasms that looked similar to seizures. She was in pain and crying because she couldn't control it.Within 3 weeks she has almost no symptoms anymore. She is back to her normal activities and is so happy to be free from her pain. I had neck and shoulder pain from working on the computer for years. I have also gotten amazing relief! My other two children are being treated as well and have noticed a difference too! We couldn't be happier. Dr. Rice is a great Chiropractor and super nice! I would highly recommend coming to his practice to everyone. read more

I have been a patient of many chiropractors, both locally and in several different states, and I'd have to say Rice Family Chiropractic (RFC) is the best! Dr. Rice is passionate about helping his customers improve their health and he helped me become pain-free! I showed up at their office without an appointment, in tears from the pinched nerve in my neck. Not only did they work me into the schedule right away, Dr. Rice even called me on the weekend, when the office was closed, to check on my pain level. He does an excellent job of listening to his patients and educating them. I HIGHLY recommend RFC!! read more

Woke up one morning with severe lower back and right side back muscle pain. After unsuccessfully trying to resolve myself, I finally made an appointment with Rice. 13 visits later within about 7 weeks with Dr. Albert and I was just fine with only occasional minor soreness. Each day I feel better. Should there be a next time, I will call for an appointment without a delay. I feel the level of service was very good. The office was extremely clean. Clearly Dr. Albert was very knowledgeable and caring. In short, I would go there again without hesitation. Job well done!! Jack M. read more

Great Dr who is very knowledgeable, skilled, and cares about his patients! I started going there after a bad neck injury that left me very limited in what I could do physically and was in constant pain and had numbness in one arm. It took nearly a year to heal completely from it but and I credit a lot to the care and treatment that Dr. Rice provided. I highly recommend! read more

AMAZING, totally awesome experience. Finally an end to years of escalating issues getting exacerbated by temporary bandaids that allowed the problem to fester. Now Dr. Rice has identified and treated the problem rather then just pacifying the symptoms. read more
