I had been suffering with Chronic Migraine Headaches and Irritable Bowel Syndrome for 20 years. I never went a day without pain. I had been on so many different medications; anti-depressants, pain killers, blood thinners, and so many others that I’ve lost track. They made me feel like a zombie. Doctors ran CAT scans, MRI’s, and a number of other tests. Nothing completely rid me of the migraines or irritable bowel syndrome. The medications and procedures cost tens of thousands of dollars. After Dr. Salminen gently corrected my spine with the NUCCA method the migraine headaches went away! After about of month of care the irritable bowel symptoms went away! I can’t believe that I am a normal person again! I had given up hope and now I have my life back. I can work and play with out pain. Now I can be with my family and friends and actually be there in body and mind. Unexpectedly, I have been able to focus better at work, sleep better, eat better and my body functions better. I would recommend that anyone who has migraines or other physical problems see Dr. Salminen. He’s so caring and he really can make a difference in your life and those you love.

I have suffered from migraine headaches for more than 20 years (since I was 5 years old). I have been to neurologists, allergists, and a family medical doctor and had numerous tests—-MRI, CAT Scans, medicines and trials. I missed at least 3 days of work a month and many social events. All at a cost of $300+ a month. I received immediate results after being treated by Dr. Salminen. I’m no longer on any medications—not even allergy medicines. I never have to cancel plans with friends and I just function better on a daily basis. I have more energy and am pain free! I even walked the Avon 3-Day walk which is 67 miles! Dr. Salminen completely explains the body and how it works all together. One section does effect another! I’ve seen this method work for several different problems—not just headaches. I would recommend Dr. Salminen and his staff; they treat you like a valued individual.

I have suffered from migraines for about 7 years. They would usually occur every month and a half and last for about 7-9 hours. I have seen a doctor of orthopedic medicine that did a CAT scan, and also a neurologist that prescribed several different medications that did not work. After being under Dr. Salminen’s care, I have gone 9 months without a migraine. In the past, just the hint of paint fumes used to mean a guaranteed migraine—but I just spent the last two weekends painting for hours, with no problem at all! Also, my knees used to hurt with any exercise or climbing steps. They stopped hurting after the very first adjustment. I thought that was something I’d just have to live with, because I’m knock-kneed. I am 100% satisfied with my care here at Alpha Spine Center. I would recommend Dr. Salminen to anyone and everyone.

I had suffered for 10 years from lower back pain and dizziness. I was sluggish, completely off balance, and in constant pain. I had been to back specialists and tried a variety of pain medications. I also tried physical therapy, but nothing seemed to help. I’ve always been a very active person who thrives on exercising. I wasn’t able to exercise at all, even walking was sometimes painful. Now, after being under upper cervical care I can walk, run, play basketball and even lift weights. Since I’ve been exercising, I’m sleeping better and my blood pressure is also lower. I have experienced a drastic improvement in my overall health. Also the adjustments are quick, painless, and very effective. I have been treated wonderfully by the staff at the Alpha Spine Center. I really like the family-like atmosphere. They are good Christian people who truly care about your well being. Dr. Salminen is a class act, along with his kind and courteous staff. I would recommend him highly to anyone because he has certainly helped me.

My name is Bruce Carlton. I have suffered from pain in my lower back off and on for 25+ years. I have seen several doctors, including traditional chiropractors, from time to time for adjustments. I am amazed of the gentleness of the NUCCA treatment that Dr. Salminen uses. I can now move around without pain in my low back and I am much more relaxed. I highly recommend Dr. Salminen and his staff. You will be amazed at how much you will be helped with such a gentle treatment.

I have suffered from lower back pain and hip rotation since the birth of my first child 6 years ago. I couldn’t sit for any length of time, like through movies, church services, or long road trips; I actually avoided sitting at all when I was at home. I’ve been to several doctors including a family practitioner and orthopedist, as well as a physical therapist. I spent lots of time in physical therapy…2-3 times per week for 2-3 months at a time. I’ve taken muscle relaxants and anti-inflammatory drugs. Now that I am under care at the Alpha Spine Center, I have regained hours in my week because I’m not in physical therapy. I’m in much less pain in all my daily activities. I can sit for extended periods of time. I’m now able to walk, swim and do light weight training with less pain when I ice down and stretch. I am really impressed with how gentle and effective the NUCCA technique and adjustments are, as well as the use of science (math and physics) to diagnose and treat. I would whole-heartedly recommend Dr. Salminen to anyone who is suffering from back pain. I was unsure of chiropractic care in the beginning, but now I’m a fan of NUCCA! One other note: I wish I’d known about NUCCA care while I was pregnant and breastfeeding. I suffered a lot of pain during this time because I was not able to take my normal pain medications.
