  ...thank you for the excellent, comprehensive, and thorough care you gave me this week. My 10K run on Thursday went very well. I feel good, for a change. See you when I am back in town.

 .....That last adjustment was the end of the problem. I am now working out in water to regain and boost my strength. I found that I can do the exercises you gave me--in water, nice. I have not found a Chiropractor in my area that is anything like you but I am asking around. Thank you once more for all you caring and Chiropractic help. Best to you and Happy Easter.-Dee Swatik  
     
  ...yesterday I was pretty much pain free....I haven't felt that good for a long time. I am being very careful with lifting etc. I can't thank you enough for the hard work and skill that you used in the healing process. We really wish that we could import you to the Cape! I will continue with the exercises that you have sent me. If you have any others send them along. You are a very talented chiropractor. I wish you a very happy and healthy New Year. Thanks again, - Miriam  
     
  ..thanks so much for seeing me the other day. It helped quite a lot and we had two fantastic days on the mountain. Thanks also for the advice and the exercises. I have been doing a regular routine of stretching in the morning but nothing specifically focused on this back muscle. I am encouraged that I can now actually do something to prevent this rather than just ignoring it and going to the chiropractor when it starts to be uncomfortable. - DH
