Here you can expect us to address the underlying causes of painβnot just the symptoms. Our goal is to help you live a healthier, more active life! Dr. David Guzzardo is different from
many other chiropractors in that he
not only has an amazing ability to
relieve pain, but he also has a true
talent for teaching his patients how to
begin leading a healthier lifestyle. By
advocating a proper diet and exercise
regimen, he helps patientsβ bodies work
more efficiently. As he points out, βthe
spine is our lifeline; when it is misaligned,
it compromises the patientβs nervous
system.β The brain-body connection, as
he calls it, is the key to understanding the
bigger picture of health. Dr. Guzzardo
believes that visits to a chiropractor
arenβt just for people in pain β theyβre
also for those who want to keep their
bodies in balance as an effective method
of wellness and prevention.
βChiropractors are like the IT guys
of your nervous system,β Dr. Guzzardo
says. βI help make sure that your nervous
system is functioning as it should. Many
of my patients enjoy a sense of greater
well-being from regular chiropractic
adjustments and have reduced health
care costs.β
All of Dr. Guzzardoβs new patients
receive a comprehensive examination β
including digital X-rays of the spine and
a nerve function test β to determine
where the nerve interference lies. Since
the areas of the spine are interrelated
biomechanically, a full spine adjustment
is necessary to correct the problem. Inter-segmental traction tables are used
to gently stretch the vertebral segments
and relax the muscles along the spine. Of course, with 35 years of experience,
Dr. Guzzardoβs skillful hands are often
enough to make the necessary spinal
adjustments. Among Dr. Guzzardoβs most satisfying
cases is an infant who was just 24
hours old when he corrected a spinal
misalignment through a light adjustment,
using only his index finger. Another
case involved a 102-year-old woman
whose spine he realigned, allowing her
to regain the feeling in her hands and
letting her return to her favorite pastime
of knitting socks. A man of true dedication and deep
caring for people, Dr. Guzzardo is a
chiropractor who will help provide you
with a healthier lifestyle and a better
outlook on life.
