Anthony Howard

My name is Anthony Howard and I am a Army Veteran former Wheeled Vehicle Mechanic. While stationed in Korea in the early 1980"s, we trained Korean Soldiers how to work on and maintain U S Army vehicles and generators. During this year of learning period of training in a extremely rural area of Korea, there were none of the luxuries of special lifting equipment, smooth floors, pulleys etc..most duties that required lifting was mainly done by hand. Another difficulty was that the Korean Soldiers were small in stature and not very strong, and they dropped things on me! So, unfortunately I did most of the lifting in my section. Also, participating in Physical Training daily on unpaved roads took its toll on my back. I continued to suffer from back pain throughout my life until 2014 when I met Dr. Wolf at the UFC Gym in Concord, Ca. I told him I had lived with back pain for so long I felt like an "old guy" and I wasnt confident he could help me. After a short conversation regarding my back pain issues, Dr. Wolf scheduled me for an appointment for analysis and treatment. When I arrived at the clinic I was warmly greeted and I noticed families with children in the waiting room eager for treatments. I never seen kids acting like this in a doctors office waiting room. Soon I was called in by Dr. Wolf. First, I was educated by Dr. Wolf on the functioning of the human body, and the nervous system that controls things I took for granted such as breathing, sleeping, and the functional connection of the organs, and if you spine is out of line, how that can effect the nerves, thereby causing those organs to low perform. I am a visual person, and Dr. Wolf used charts, drawing and graphs, x rays and explained things in a way that was not above my educational level. In fact, the information he passed to me made me more mentally in tune with my body. The the best part came, when Dr. Wolf began treatment. I was concerned because I am 6 3" tall and at the time 348 pounds. How was this guy gonna do this? I was expecting the traditional crack the back thing, but we went thru a series of effective techniques, (from the base of my neck to the tail bone), that had an immediate effect and gave me relief. But I must admit the first spinal adjustment scared me. Not only did I feel relief from the pain, but the area of the pain became "HOT." I told Dr. Wolf what sensations I was feeling. He explained that the re-alignment is allowing for the proper amount of blood flow, when before the condition of the spine would not allow proper blood flow. I continued to make my visits twice a week, then they were reduced to once a week, then once a month. Okay..I know this is a long review! But this is about ME!! and its real! Just imagine if you have a high level of back pain for 34 years and suddenly after several months of treatment it went away. You could take a full breath without it feeling like you were getting stabbed in the upper and lower back with a backhoe blade. Im 55 years old and working out like a madman in the gym now, and lifting weights like I did in college (and I was a Beast!!). I am losing body fat, rebuilding my abdominals and building quality muscle now. Look, I dont care who you are, how old or what condition you feel your in. Hey man, you may feel great! But what Ive learned over the years is that, no matter good or bad you feel, nothing stays the same, and prevention is the key. What Ive learned from Dr. Wolf is "Pain is temporary! It may last a minute, a day or even a year. But sooner of later it will subside and something else will take its place!" (For me it was relief) GO SEE THE WOLF!! at The New Health Chiropractic Center.

This post is way overdue and I apologize for that, but the up side is, I have now been attending The NHCC for just a little over 6 weeks and can give a very true and accurate testimony of Dr. Wolf and Dr. Rodriguez’s effectiveness on my shoulder pain. In High School and College I was quite active in sports which was causing pain in my right shoulder (my dominant side) due to wear and some minor tears in my rotator cuff. Drs could never alleviate it because it wasnt bad enough for surgery and cortisone shots were tossed out of the mix as only a very temporary fix. Once the pain became almost unbearable, I finally made it in to see Dr. Wolf and Dr. Rodriguez who were the first chiropractors I have seen to take detailed Xrays of my neck and spine and determined that I actually have a reverse curve (-8 degrees) in my neck. The reversed curve is essentially putting about 20lbs of extra weight on my spinal cord, causing migraines, neck stiffness and intense burning pain in the muscles which also spread down to your shoulder. The pain was becoming so extreme (especially at night) that I was literally crying myself to sleep on a regular basis. We discussed that coming in 3x a week was the best course of action for treatment and I could not have been happier with that decision! In my amount of time with The NHCC so far, my shoulder pain has been reduced 80%! I can comfortably sit at my desk all day without pain, stand on bart without pain, drive without pain and most importantly to me, SLEEP WITHOUT PAIN. We are continuing to work on realigning my neck and spinal cord and I would highly recommend them to anyone with any pain, anywhere! They are truly the reason, I can finally resume my active lifestyle, pain-free!

So last July I was having incredible pains in my stomach while attending a friends bachelor party. I was also having a hard time breathing comfortably and had uncontrollable sweating. It was the first time in my life where I felt something was seriously wrong with me . I almost asked a friend to drive me to the hospital due to such severe stomach pains. I was in the lobby of the Marriot hotel in downtown San Francisco when I ran into Dr. Tommy Wolf. I was walking towards him holding my stomach and he asked me if I was alright. I told him I was having severe pains in my stomach/intestinal area. It literally felt like my guts were going to rupture. He could see I was in much discomfort due to my pale face and sweating. He asked me if he could try something and I wasnt too sure about it at first but it hurt so bad I was willing to try anything a that point. He had me stand up straight for a moment and he quickly adjusted my back while standing. Whatever he did took away my pain immediately. It was a miracle. My pain went away instantly and I could feel the blood rushing back into my hands. When he pushed on my lower back I felt the pressure in my intestines and stomach get released. My cold sweats went away and I could breathe easily. After his adjustment he explained to me what the cause was. I had injured my lower back earlier that week and the muscles in my abdomen had over compensated and had tightened up and put pressure on my organs causing the intense pressure. I was so happy I ran into him cause he saved me a trip to the hospital. Seriously Dr. Tommy Wolf is the best! Thank you!!!
