Dr. Eric is incredible! I have been going to his practice since it opened. I actually followed him from his previous practice, and could not recommend a better chiropractor. He has been adjusting my back for the past eight years, and he has done wonders. I initially started seeing him on the basis of my husbands recommendation. I went to his office very skeptical of being manipulated and hearing my joints pop. I went to him because I had a bulging disc that was creating unbearable pain for me. It was pressing down on the spinal nerve running down my left leg, so it was very painful to walk for longer than a few steps and even more excruciating to jog. I was not able to maintain my quality of life, and I was at my wits ends with classical forms of therapy. I had visited orthopedic doctors and surgeons, and I had gone to physical therapy hoping to find relief there. Instead, I found no relief from physical therapy and was told that there was no other option for me except to get a Cortizone shot, which would not actually resolve the problem just mask it. When I initially went to Dr. Eric he took an x-ray and started working on my back. He was realistic with me about expectations, and really helped devise a plan on how we could get to a point of relief. It was a slow process since my back was so damaged and misaligned due to my bulging disc and scoliosis. He never gave up, though, and after about nine months to a year I felt an immense relief of pressure in my lower back. My bulging disc stopped pinching my nerve that ran down through my leg. I was able to walk anywhere for however long I desired. I was able to start running again, which I love, and actually ran a half marathon a few years later with a time of 8:30/minute. Dr. Eric is truly a one-of-a-kind chiropractor! I have been to three or four other chiropractors because I have moved out of the area, and none of them compare to his high standard of medical care. I now visit him every time I go to my in-laws, for maintenance, because I cant get the same level of care anywhere else. He really listens to what you tell him physically needs work, and where you feel that you need support. He is the perfect combination of physical therapy, massage, and adjustments. He is very patient-centric and focuses on hearing you and developing a very personalized plan. I definitely recommend seeing him!!

Dr. Eric does amazing work and completely changed how much I could do in my daily life. I started going when I was in high school playing field hockey and was experiencing horrible pain in my back and neck. After my first visit and X-ray screening, he adjusted my back and gave me stretches/exercises to do at home to help with the work he did during appointments. After my first appointment, I was in some pain. Thats supposed to happen. Hes adjusting your back and your back probably wont be a fan of change at first. Trust me: its going to help you in the long run; it only took a couple appointments for me to notice the change. He helped me improve in athletics and just going about my daily activities due to the minimum pain (if any at all). Dr. Eric also cares about you as an individual person. Youre not just another appointment he has to get through. Hes asks about your family, work/school, and just whats going on in your life. I really just view Dr. Eric as more of a friend now. He also goes above and beyond. When I got injured very badly during a game, he made extra time for me, helped me prepare for surgery, gave me advice on how to move forward, and just supported me throughout the entire process. Basically what Im trying to say is that I will always be thankful for everything Dr. Eric has done for me and I can never thank him enough.

Having completed two marathons, I thought those days were over when I developed bursitis-like symptoms after every run. Dr. Eric quickly discovered a misalignment in my hips and spine and proceeded to treat both the symptom (the bursitis pain) and the underlying cause (the misalignment). This is not a typical chiropractic experience, as Dr. Eric incorporates sports medicine and physical therapy into his treatments to ensure a quick and complete recovery. After 4 weeks of treatment, Ive taken up running again and look forward to my next marathon. Dr. Eric and his staff are the most personable yet professional that I have experienced.

I was told that I needed to undergo surgery for a shoulder / upper spine injury. For me, surgery was a last result so I searched for an alternative solution. The only avenue I saw was to see a Chiropractor. I had been treated by a conventional Chiropractor for previous issues but with no real success. The solution was to try working with a Therapeutic Chiropractor to see if my issues could be resolved without surgery. Dr. Eric not only resolved my shoulder issues but has been quite successful in treating a mid back issue that I have had for many years. I strongly recommend Achieve Chiropractic! Thanks Dr. Eric!!

Pretty awful. He didnt even take x-rays on my initial evaluation, which they tell you is part of the price for an evaluation. He did more damage than good after my adjustment. He kept trying to tell me I needed my muscles worked on, ends up I have minor scoliosis, which he would have seen with an x-ray! Went to a new chiropractor and am much happier, youre better off seeing a massage therapist over this guy and quite frankly his practice seems dangerous. He makes adjustments on people without even knowing what the underlying problem is.

Im usually pretty stubborn and decided to wait till my back pain was pretty unbearable for my normal day to day. I didnt think I would get to the point where I wouldnt have pain or constantly try to crack my neck or back but Dr. Eric definitely got me there. He worked on a plan to prioritize my pains and give them the attention they needed to feel way better while providing info and guidance to what I can do myself to help. Couple months later and I couldnt feel better. Highly recommended!

AWESOME service, started going there for my back and then became a monthly visit once my issues were worked out. I do crossfit and anytime I pull a muscle or feel something tweaked out I can give them a call and get worked on. Doctor Eric not only does chiropractic medicine but also many muscle scraping and therapy techniques. I highly recommend achive chiropractic to anyone in a athletic field all the way to regular chiropractic adjustments.

My husband and I have gone to Dr. Eric now for a few years. He is great. My husband went for knee problems and I have gone for back and neck. He takes his time with each patient and tries to find the root of the problem. He does work with bones and muscles, which I really like. He doesnt try to crack your back like some Chiropractors do. He is great for athletes and those with sensitive issues. I highly recommend him for this area.

Out of towner who needed help with a very sore (injured) back. Ive been going to Chiropractors for 25 years, including one at home for the past 10 years. I would rate Dr. Eric as the best of the bunch. Outstanding knowledge, service, and capabilities. I was comfortable from the onset, and 3 visits within a week were all excellent. Look no further if you are in the Hampton area. Thanks much for your help!
