Asthma
I strayed from my adjustments, which I am ashamed of for several reasons and have paid the ultimate price; my asthma returned again back in December 2006. Again, I was prescribed different prescriptions and nothing worked. In June 2007, I rushed myself to the hospital with a severe asthma attack, which landed me in a Cardiac Care Unit. When I left the hospital, I again was prescribed seven prescriptions free for the last two months, thanks to the care I have received from Dr. Jimenez.

Avoid Surgery
The variety of recommendations was overwhelming and Kevin’s prognosis was unclear. A few days later I happened to discuss Kevin’s situation with a friend. I did not know her son was under the care of Dr.Jimenez. She recommended we consult with Dr.Jimenez because she was very impressed by her son’s progress after chiropractic adjustments and told me about the diagnostic tools Dr.Jimenez utilizes. I made an appointment the next day. Kevin received a complete and thorough evaluation that included back x-rays, visual assessment, left and right side weight distribution analysis and computerize EMG back scan. Dr.Jimenez determined that Kevin had a 20 pound weight bearing difference from side to side, injury to his back comparable to that which results from a serious car accident and scoliosis. Dr. Jimenez assured me that chiropractic adjustments would address all issues including his pronated feet and explained everything to my satisfaction. I was very impressed but skeptical that a chiropractor could address foot problems.

When my oldest daughter was in sixth grade she came home from school limping. The pediatrician said she needed a rod in her back, and that she had scoliosis. Well, I took her to the chiropractor who reported that she had a bone spur, and needed orthotics. She was treated for the bone spur and got orthotics, and has been receiving chiropractic care regularly, and is doing quite well with no rods in her back. I am very grateful to the person who told me about chiropractic years ago, because it has kept my family healthy, and disease free, not to mention the possible surgeries we could have submitted to.

Congestion
For many years of my life, I lived on daily allergy pills to help me breathe. Even with that, I suffered often from sinus infections and sinus headaches. I always had at least one nostril stuffed and would often joke, that all anyone had to do was hold one side of my nostrils down and I then couldn’t breathe. I started going to Dr. Jimenez in September and 2 ½ months later for the first time, since I can remember I can breathe out of both nostrils without any medications. I am so grateful to experience something that many people take for granted- breathing freely. I was always used to being so stuffed up. This is so new and exciting for me. Thanks LifeSpa!

Digestion, Heartburn & Ulcers
My healing process has been an extraordinary experience. My intestines and digestive system is much better than ever! I am so ecstatic, my weekly headaches have diminished and I have also started playing tennis again. I am able to go to the gym and sit on the bike for 20 minutes and the treadmill for another 35. My level of energy has risen and my pain and tingling has completely vanished. I am in awe when I reflect o the past few months of how bad my state of health was. I could not walk without tingling and I had to stand most of the day at work because of the pain and tingling and at bed time tossing and turning to find a comfortable position. Dr.Jimenez, thank you for your magical, gentle and precise adjustments. I am so lucky to be under your care!

I feel very healthful. I do not get the “kinks” anymore in my body like before. It also has helped me with my constipation!!

Because of my commitment to regular adjustments I have been relieved of numbness in my hands, headaches, frequent sinus infections, stiffness, and joint pain. I have taken years off of my life that would have been spent in pain and suffering.
– Charlene B.
Well it’s been almost 5 years since meeting and being treated by Dr. Jimenez and I still to this day continue to see her at least once a week. Since being treated I have not been sick with colds, I used to get migraine headaches and they have stopped. Even when my wife and kids are sick, I remain well. Besides my wife and kids, Chiropractic care has been one of the best things that have happened to me. I am very grateful for Dr. Jimenez and her staff for the care they provide. I strongly recommend and encourage Chiropractic care for any and everyone out there to give it a try. I am living proof that it works!
– Michael K.
After my first adjustment, I felt INSTANT migraine relief and since then HAVE NOT had any reoccurring migraines. I used to take 80mg of Motrin or multiple Advil several times a week and now I no longer take Advil or muscle relaxants since then, YAY!
I have also noticed changes in my sleeping patterns, my sleep is much less interrupted and I have some very vivid dreams that I’m actually able to remember. Overall, my digestion has improved, my breathing and relaxation is deeper, and I have better balanced posture, less pain and greater range of motion in my neck!

Infertility
I began at the age of 22 to think about having children. After several attempts and visiting my doctor I realized that it wasn’t going to be that easy. At the age of 23 I began working as a store manager for a company; working long stressful hours. I believe that the stress in my life also contributed to my infertility. My first diagnosis was endometriosis which is pelvic pain and is common to cause infertility in women. I was treated for this and was still unable to get pregnant.
– Elizabeth M.
Before coming to Dr.Jimenez’s office I was diagnosed with PCOS at the age of 14. For those who don’t know what PCOS is, it is a problem in which a woman’s hormones are out of balance. It can cause problems with your periods and makes it difficult to get pregnant. I am now 18 and learning this affected my lifestyle. It affected me both internally and externally.
Coming to Dr. Jimenez’s office I was able to help my PCOS by getting treatments by her. With her addressing my back about three times a week it has helped me get my menstural cycle monthly and be more active in my everyday life. Coming to her office she has helped my internal and external body feel ready to take on anything. I have also a slight slip disk on my L5 and a rotated hip. Because of this I was unabel to really do many activities or want to walk a lot. Coming to the office has helped me become more active and have less pain throughout my days along with becoming a volunteer firefighter i’ll be needing to amke sure my abck is always adjusted properly so I do not injure myself on the job!

Low Back Pain
I could not sit down for 2 minutes without terrible pain, bending was a big problem and in my line of work, it was a big problem. This is where Dr. Jimenez comes in. I met her as a customer of Verizon. I was at her office to install new phone lines. The work was very demanding and really pushed my back to the limit. I found out that Dr. Jimenez is a Chiropractor and told her about my problem. Dr. Jimenez examined me, told me, and showed me my problems. She explained what would be done to correct the problem and she thoroughly educated me about Chiropractic Care.
-Michael K.
Within two hours of my shift I would have to sit down because my back pain was so bad I felt as if I could no longer hold my back up. I also constantly slouched for about ten years now, which has made me extremely self-conscious about my posture. I have had physical therapy a few times, which did not help me at all! I have also tried massage therapy, which only worked for about twenty-four hours, if that.!! I never wanted to try medication fearing the side effects or addiction. The pain was getting worse and I started to feel it in my right hip. It was at that point that I knew I had to do something about my condition!
-Natalie S.
Dr. Jimenez has set up a program for me, where in I receive a weekly adjustment. I feel it is helping me, not only with my back and neck pain, but it has in the past, improved my immune system, as a result- less colds and sore throats.
– Joan A.
I consulted Dr.Jimenez for the pain I had been experiencing in my lower back for the past 40 years. This pain had, at times, been quite severe. I did not want to take drugs or medication for my condition. Then a friend recommended that I see a chiropractor.Chiropractic has helped the quality of my life. I am now pain free and have returned to work.
– Raymond M.
For about 3 months, I was having difficulties with shoulder and lower back pain. Both my mom and brother had been seeing a chiropractor and getting results, so I decided to give Dr.Esther a call. Since initiating care, I have experienced a significant change in my condition. I have definitely had less pain that ever before. I feel that regular adjustments keep my spine “in line” and would recommend chiropractic to others.
-Bill H.
I was involved in a serious car accident and was suffering from neck and lower back pain, which traveled into my legs. A friend recommended that I consult a chiropractor. I have been under care now for almost 2 years and can honestly say that chiropractic has benefited me. I can now go through my day at work without pain. I also realized that it is very important to maintain the spinal correction that has taken place. Dr. Esther has taken the time to explain to me how chiropractic works and also the benefits of the massage therapy that I receive. I have recommended chiropractic to my friends, many of whom also see Dr.Esther for care. To sum up, I love chiropractic and would recommend it to anyone!
– Jill G.
I feel that chiropractic has changed my life for the better and would highly recommend Dr.Jimenez to anyone who is suffering from neck and back pain. My friends and family see a marked improvement in my attitude toward them and life in general.
– Marcie
For the past two years, off and on, I had been dealing with lower back pain. It also was very uncomfortable to stand up straight, and have good posture. My sister works for Dr.Jimenez and said how the patients that came into the office with similar problems were getting great results. So I had no doubts that chiropractic could help me. Since receiving care, my posture has improved and I am pain free. I have recommended chiropractic to the rest of my family and many of my friends and urge anyone in pain to come in for a chiropractic check-up. I truly believe they will be helped.
– Jeff B.
It was after the first adjustment I noticed a decrease in my pain in the lower back and after each visit, I have noticed I have less pain in my legs and back. I am now sleeping 5-6 hours without pain. Prior to Dr.Jimenez’s adjustments my sleep was interrupted by pain every 2-3 hours. I can say now that after twenty eight adjustments that my lower back and pelvic pain has decreased and seldom give me a problem even after playing golf and doing my aerobics class. I have enjoyed my experience with Dr.Jimenez and recommend anyone who has not tried chiropractic treatment after dealing with the pain and not finding any relief to seek out the services of Dr. Jimenez.
– Carol N.
Before I came in for adjustments, my back had sharp pains in the lower left region, I was unable to take easy deep breaths and my allergies were terrible. Along with those pains my body was overall stiff. Now, the sharp pain in my back is almost gone. I am able to take deep breaths with ease, my allergies have subsided immensely, and my body on the whole is looser than ever before.
– Charles B.
Neck Pain
Chiropractic has helped me improve; now I sleep more and I am pain free with better mobility in my neck. My wife as well sees Dr.Jimenez. She suffers from less pain and has better mobility. My recommendations are if you suffer or are in pain see a health care professional. I have told many friends and relatives the same. Now that I have enjoyed the benefits of chiropractic I feel that it’s a better alternative than medication or surgery.
– John H.
I have suffered from severe neck, mid and lower back pain for about four years now. I work as a bartender/server, and I’m on my feet all day. Within two hours of my shift I would have to sit down because my back pain was so bad I felt as if I could no longer hold my back up. I would sit there and rub my neck all day long; it felt as though there were knots all over it. I also constantly slouched for about ten years now, which has made me extremely self-conscious about my posture. I have had physical therapy a few times, which did not help me at all! I have also tried massage therapy, which only worked for about twenty-four hours, if that.!! I never wanted to try medication fearing the side effects or addiction. The pain was getting worse and I started to feel it in my right hip. It was at that point that I knew I had to do something about my condition!

Chiropractic improved my life because now I don’t get the neck and mid back pain that I used to and I have an easier time waking up in the morning. I also have an increased amount of energy.
– R. J.
Chiropractic has improved my quality of life where I now am pain free, have better mobility in my neck and experience a more restful sleep. My results with chiropractic have inspired my wife to begin chiropractic care with Dr.Jimenez
– J. H.
I sprained my ankle over 2 years ago and after an orthopedist I was told it would heal quickly. 2 years later I was still struggling with the injury, along with chronic neck and lower back pain. I consulted with other medical professionals in the field, including another chiropractor, but did not feel any improvement after treatment. I decided to see Dr. Jimenez to address the neck and lower back pain, but after a month, she had diagnosed my ankle/ foot problems as well as the neck/ lower back pain- all of which were related to misalignment that developed after the initial ankle injury. After a month of treatment, I can already feel the difference in alignment and I’m able to play softball regularly without foot pain that night or the next morning. I feel like an inch taller and I’m finally starting a regular jogging routine again after 2 years!

Pregnancy
I was in a accident in my 23rd week of pregnancy in which I was rear-ended by a pickup truck. My truck was totaled in the accident and my back and neck severely pained and injured. Dr. Jimenez was recommended to me at the time, but due to my pregnancy and having never been to a chiropractor before I was very skeptical. I began to see Dr. Jimenez several times a week and noticed improvement in the pain after only a few visits. The more I went the better I was feeling. Before my adjustments I had trouble walking because of the pain, after it wasn’t something I even thought about I was feeling fantastic.I saw Dr. Jimenez through my entire pregnancy and felt great up to my delivery date. While with my first child I had back pain typical with the last month of pregnancy. With this baby, I felt wonderful!
– Lisa C.
Since I started showing during my third trimester of pregnancy, I had terrible back pain from mid-back to lower back. It was difficult to sleep and pained to walk or stand even short periods of time. I knew I had to do something ASAP.
I started getting adjusted around my 35th week of pregnancy. I immediately began to feel relief of my back pain. I was able to stay at work a little while longer before going on leave. I no longer have backaches while walking or standing. I can endure more throughout my day and no longer feel like I’m in unbearable pain. Thank You! Can’t wait to see how my time here will help with the delivery of my first baby!

Sciatica
I was experiencing lower back pain with accompanying sciatica down my leg. I had it about a month before I made the decision to see Dr.Jimenez. I had been taking Advil for the pain. I can now say that I am virtually pain-free. I would recommend that individuals try chiropractic and experience the benefits that I have.
– Charlie B.
I came to Dr. Jimenez when my sciatica was extremely bad, and to try to get off of some of my arthritis medications. My spine is now more in alignment that it ever was. I have less pain in my back and am able to function better. The sciatica is still bothering me, but it will take a while to get better. I am able to sit and stand better that I was when I first started to see Dr. Jimenez. I am also discontinuing two of my arthritis medications. The first evaluation I had was a very thorough exam and fully explained to me. Other chiropractors just did quick exams and started to adjust right away, without taking my other health problems into consideration. Dr. Jimenez is a very compassionate and caring person. I would recommend Dr. Jimenez to anyone who is suffering from any type or severity of back or neck pain. Other family members see Dr. Jimenez also, and I have seen improvement in them as well.

Scoliosis
Dr. Jimenez you are a terrific chiropractor. You have made me feel and look great! Your personality is amazing you always make me smile and I know I always leave you with a smile. A smile that was taken from a then 13-year-old girl when stricken with scoliosis, now a 48-year-old woman. This terrific chiropractor took her skills and put them to work on my spine! Dr.Jimenez, I highly recommend you to everyone that ever mentions any kind of back problems and other pains such as headaches.
– Marlene S.
I had been diagnosed with scoliosis and I was seeing a chiropractor to help manage my condition. Recently, I was involved in an automobile accident that precipitated all kinds of new symptoms: Neck, shoulder and lower back pain with accompanying muscle weakness and spasm. The pain, at times was unbearable. Although I was prescribed Vioxx and Percocet for my pain management, I wanted to complement my care with a more natural approach. Chiropractic keeps me limber and helps me to avoid more degeneration and back spasms. I would recommend to anyone suffering or in pain that they too try chiropractic.
– Anita M.
Tourettes
I have had a facial tic since I was a small child. It is something that has caused me a great deal of frustration and discomfort for most of my life. At various points in my life, I have tried many different things to help me with this issue. I saw a Neurologist who prescribed me medication and told me that eventually my tics should lessen on their own. I visited am allergist and got a plethora of different allergy shots. None of this helped me and I decided to try looking towards less traditional treatments. I began seeing an acupuncturist who was able to help me, and this in turn encouraged me to keep an open mind towards other forms of treatment. Eventually a friend who was studying chiropractic suggested it to me because he believed it could help me.
At first I was skeptical because in my mind tics and getting adjustments were not really linked. I still gave it a shot and after a while I realized that the work I had done had greatly improved not only the problem with the facial tics but my life in general. A number of nagging injuries I had developed over the course of time began to heal, and I just felt like a healthier human being.
My chiropractor was located in Florida and I recently moved to New York. For the first few months that I lived here I was not under any type of chiropractic care and I noticed that the tics began to return. I realized then how important the care was for me so I set out to find a chiropractor. After visiting a few I finally chose Dr. Jimenez. I am very happy that I did because she has been able to help me with the tics, as well as helped to correct pain and discomfort I had on my lower back. I definitely feel like staying under care is a very important part of good health. I am very grateful that I have finally found something that is able to control my facial tics.

Children’s Chiropractic Conditions
Asthma
My children have also been recipients of chiropractic care, and have some amazing results. When my son was 10 years old, his pediatrician said he had asthma, and needed an inhaler. She started him on an inhaler that very day. Later that day I took him to the chiropractor and we stopped the inhaler. We took him off of all dairy products, and scheduled him for regular chiropractic adjustments. Within a few months he did not need the inhaler, and there were no signs of asthma. He has since enjoyed a better quality of life.
– Charlene B.
Autism Spectrum Disorder
Samuel has been diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum. Prior to starting care with Dr.Jimenez, Samuel used to not be able to: sit still for a long time, he would not answer to his own name, was not speaking at all, and could not look straight into someone’s eyes when spoken to or even recognize his own family. With the help of chiropractic care and Nutrition Response Testing Samuel is beginning to learn more words and repeating them, looking into people’s eyes when speaking to them, as well as speaking in sentences and now able to ask for what he wants, he can now sit in a chair for longer periods of times, recognizes his family members, sleeps throughout the night and has even started to potty train!
– Samuel O. (Age: 4)
Digestive
I felt wonderful! My children also began seeing Dr.Jimenez after my daughter suffered from ear infections so severe that our pediatrician suggested a surgery to put tubes in her hears and my son suffered with severe constipation. After seeing Dr.Jimenez for a short time my son was doing amazing, she helped to regulate his body in a way I was only able to duplicate with medication. My daughter has not had an ear infection since her first visit. As a mother nothing is more precious than your children and I feel confident in trusting mine with Dr.Jimenez. She has always provided them with the highest level of care. She has always been sweet and gentle with them. She has made them feel comfortable and they really look forward to their visits. They love to get adjusted!
– Lisa C.
I feel very healthful. I do not get the “kinks” anymore in my body like before. It also has helped me with my constipation!!
– Anna M.
Also, my older daughter Julia Grace had problems with being constipated her weekly adjustments with Dr. Jimenez has made that all go away. Last, my youngest daughter Jenna Faith had began to have ear infections, before I started her any medications; I took her straight to Dr. Jimenez. Jenna has not had an ear infection since. Visiting Dr. Jimenez has enabled my family to be healthier, happier, and smarter. When I park my car in front on Dr. Jimenez office Jenna always says “Doctor’s House.” And its true Dr. Jimenez office is like a home our “second home” A place where we feel safe, secure, and loved!

I have recommended a friend, whose little son had frequent ear infections to Dr. Jimenez. He had a series of adjustments and I’m happy to report his condition has improved. He is free from problems with his ears presently
– Joan A.
Since my son Jack Andrew was ten months old he suffered from chronic ear infections. In addition he is allergic to many foods (diary being one of them). Jack was constantly being put on medications that made him even sicker; most of the medications that were given to him had milk proteins in them. In June 2007 Jack was recommended to have tubes put in his ears. My husband and I were very concerned about his procedure. My sister visits with chiropractic in her neighborhood. She was very concerned about Jack so she discussed her feelings with her doctor. Her chiropractic recommended Dr Jimenez. It is now August. My son Jack has not had an ear infection in three months. He finally had a “normal” tympanogram. Jack is a healthier and happier boy now. My family is blessed to have Dr. Jimenez in our lives.

Growing Pains
Kevin went for adjustments 3 times weekly and was fitted for orthotics by Dr. Jimenez. I was totally amazed to see his ankles straighten after 2 months. Kevin began to feel better as his pain subsided. I called the surgeon to cancel the appointment. Surgery to his ankles would have required casts, several weeks of recuperation in a wheelchair during the summer, limited mobility and extensive physical therapy. Kevin was able to participate in field day activities in school this year. It would not have been possible had he not received proper diagnosis and treatment from Dr.Jimenez. I now see Dr. J for chiropractic adjustments and I am very pleased that his symptoms have subsided. I let other know about our success story and suggest to other people who suffer from a variety of symptoms to consult with Dr.Jimenez. The key to optimum health begins with a healthy spine!

Sleep
Prior to nutrition response testing I couldn’t keep my weight down, sleeping was a problem and I worried constantly. On my program I have been able to lose the weight that I wanted. I don’t wake up in the middle of the night and worry as much. My grades are now better than before and I can now focus in school. I also don’t have swelling under my eye like I used to.
– Patrick (Age: 10)
In Riley’s words ” Before I came to Dr.J I did a lot of rocking on the floor to fall asleep and when I was tired. I couldnt always fall asleep because I didnt feel tired. I like going to Dr. J because she does popcorn on my neck and it tickles. It is not scary and I like coming. I don’t rock as much anymore and I sleep in my own bed now too because I dont need to rock. I like that my mom goes to Dr.J too. All kids can go here!”
