There are not enough words to describe how much better I feel after going through this treatment. Dr Pierre has years of experience and used it to heal me quickly and efficiently. This has changed my life in more ways than I can quantify but here are the ones I can. I have always had some level of ADHD, never been able to focus on anything for more than an hour and always had to be doing 3 things at a time to keep my brain engaged. I have been a heavy computer gamer all my life and work on a computer all day at my job. As a result, I have always suffered from back pain, bad posture and many other ailments in my back and neck. I have been to many chiropractors in my life and although most of the treatments made me feel better temporarily, they were never a permanent fix and never allowed by body to heal. Beyond that I have always been very resistant to change (mild Aspergers) and any sort of change to a schedule or a plan, always upset me to a level I never understood. My family always considered me a very angry person who was always unable to "go with the flow". I can say that after this I have a much greater complicity to accept change and beyond that, I can focus on tasks the way a normal person can. My back and Neck pain is gone for the first time in as long as I can remember. I go meet up with some friends who havent seen me in 6 months and they ask if I have been working out, I havent, but the way my body looks now is that much different then how it looked before it shocks people. If someone offered me $100,000 to go back to the way I felt before I went through this treatment (with no ability to go through it again), I would turn them down without thinking twice. There is nothing better than being able to breathe easier, have more energy and do what I want to do in life without worrying if my neck or back is going to hurt me afterwards or stop me from doing it. ABC is simply the future of our human understanding of the human body. This is the single best decision you can make in possibly your entire life. Go here and see what Dr Pierre and his team can do for you.

I am 22 years old and I started receiving ABC care a little more than a year ago. I have had scoliosis since middle school when I was forced to carry all my textbooks around all day. I also used to carry my bag on one shoulder, further twisting my back. I remember coming home from school every day with a headache, quite often they were migraines so painful that I had to take medicine for them. I had frequent heartburn, my appetite was terrible, and my back just plain hurt. Last year I decided enough was enough. I had never been to a chiropractor before but when Dr. Pierre came to speak at Ithaca College his passion was evident and what he was saying just felt right. My very first adjustment released so much tension that my eyes welled with tears. It felt so right. By the end of my first month of care my heartburn had disappeared! The pain in my neck and back had lessened. I was sleeping better because I did not have to prop myself up on pillows. I could even sleep flat on my back. After a few months I felt like I had more energy. The pain was completely gone and I could feel my body righting itself. My confidence in my appearance has skyrocketed and my posture is great. I am now taller than my Mom, and believe me, at 5’ ½” I’ll take all the height I can get. I recommend ABC care to anyone who is wishing for some way to end their pain and discomfort at the source. I never wanted to medicate myself for my frequent pain or heartburn. I just knew that it wouldn’t actually fix what was wrong. I see the commercials on TV for prescription antacids and I wish I could tell everyone who prescribes to them to go out and get your spine adjusted! One last thing: I have been nearsighted since middle school. It runs in my family but in the past year my prescription has changed for the better. Thanks Spinal Wellness Center of Ithaca‼‼!

I feel a moral obligation to write this review. I see all these five star reviews and these claims of Dr. Pierre being the closest thing to a miracle worker. I am sure he has helped many people but my experience with him was absolutely awful and I want to put in a word of caution to anyone who may be considering seeing Dr. Pierre. I went in last week out of curiosity, having heard good things, and because he was doing a free promotional week of an evaluation plus a session. For the record, I am a generally very strong, flexible, athletic, and healthy 24 year old. The adjustments Dr. Pierre does were fast, strong, and big, and they were NOT right for my body. I started blacking out and feeling like I was going to faint, and then actually vomited in his office. It was a terrifying experience. And yet, his language and self assuredness made me doubt my own health and think maybe he really was helping me somehow. He has what I like to call, a "messiah" or complex that unfortunately too many healers get. They think their practice is the only one that can make a difference and that they can "fix you" and anyone else who walks in their door. His ego seemed to blur his perception of how my body was reacting to his adjustments and I left the office feeling emotionally and physically traumatized. And almost a week later now, I am still dealing with the aftermath; a weird tingling electrical pulse that runs through my body and anxiety attacks that I have had before but through much healing work of my own had not experienced in over 8 months until now. If you choose to see this doctor, please be assertive in saying what you want and are ok with and do not let him question your own sense of what is right for you body. Only you know what is best for your body. And he is not a miracle worker. I learned that the hard way.

I am 29 years old, and have been experiencing neck and back pain since I was a teenager. I have seen a few different chiropractors starting at age 15, which provided some relief, but not enough. I had to stop running at age 24 because the severe musculo-skeletal imbalances of my body leading to terrible pain in my entire right leg from hip to toe, but especially my knee. It got so bad that I was in constant pain, even just sitting, and I couldnt stand for more than an hour without having incredible lower back pain for the next several days. I would also have episodes of muscle spasm in my neck that were so bad I couldnt even sit up in bed without help. I was taking 8 advil a day regularly just to perform my normal functions. I saw several specialists, including an occupational therapist, a podiatrist, and 2 physical therapists, none of which could help me. Then I found Pierre, and he has changed my life. After only 6 weeks of treatment, I am a new person!! My neck pain was decreased by at least 50% after my FIRST adjustment and is almost completely gone now. I can now walk for several miles and stand as long as I want without back pain, and I am hopeful that I will eventually be able to run again. I have seen enormous improvements in other aspects of my health as well: my cystic acne has disappeared, my gastro-intestinal problems (also unhelped by conventional medicine) have gone away, and I have more energy and have been losing weight. And the best part is, I am no longer relying on medications to live comfortably. I thought I was destined to live a life riddled with pain and depression. Thanks to the Spinal Wellness Center, that life is over.
