Testimonials

 I highly recommend Sandy. I had an excruciating lower back pain that was making me feel sick every time I moved. Sandy spent time with me until I was free from pain. She is passionate in her work and there is no watching the clock, she spends as much time with you as she can. Thank you Sandy

 I visited Sandy's clinic suffering with a very severe neck pain. I was unable to drive because I had lost the movement in my neck and if I attempted to move my neck, it created severe pain that travelled down into my arm. I was very impressed with the treatment I received from Sandy. I gained movement back into my neck so I was able to turn my head again and the pain stopped travelling down into my arm. Thank you Sandy, I really appreciate everything you did for me. Jennifer Riley
