Mid City Chiropractic Patient Testimonials

Here's what customers are saying about Mid City Chiropractic!

Sciatic pain

"I work for a group of doctors at Mid-City OBGYN. Dr. Leslie Churchill has a chiropractic office in the same building, as my employer. She came highly recommended for her Graston therapy. Many of my co-workers had used Dr. Churchill’s services and were very happy with the results.

I had suffered from sciatic nerve pain for over 12 years and was not hopeful anything more could be done, but then again, I had nothing to lose. I started seeing Dr. Churchill on an average of 2 times a week for about a month. I can’t explain how good I started to feel, even after a week. It was definitely an incentive to continue the Graston treatments. In less than 2 months, I was literally pain-free, for the first time in 12 years! Though I do have flare-ups with arthritis in my spine, I have had no re-occurring sciatic nerve pain. I continue to do my stretches, as recommended by Dr. Churchill.

I wish someone would have recommended Graston therapy years ago. I recommend it to anyone who would like to be pain-free again."

Post-surgical knee pain / joint replacement

"I had my knee replaced after 30 years of injuries and surgeries. During the first 8 weeks after surgery I had traditional physical therapy and during that time I went from 80 degrees of mobility to 90 degrees. My doctor had me back in the hospital to put me under anesthesia and force my knee to bend (Manipulation Under Anesthesia). He mentioned at that point that I had significant scar tissue in and around the knee. Following that, I had two straight weeks of physical therapy and finished that at 93 degrees. I was also able to walk no more than 100 feet without having to sit down due to the pain. At that point my doctor had me stop physical therapy except for home therapy. He mentioned if my mobility did not improve I was looking at arthroscopic surgery to remove scar tissue and, if that didn’t work, to reopen the knee to remove more scar tissue.

It was at this point that I found out about Dr. Churchill and the Graston Technique. After 6 weeks of treatment 2 times per week, I was able to walk 1.5 miles and my mobility went from 95 to 125 degrees. During the past month after my initial treatment ended, I have been in for Graston treatment twice and am now up to 2 miles and 130 degrees of mobility. I can't begin to express my appreciation to Dr. Churchill for what she has done for me. Since my treatment with her, I can honestly say I'm glad I had the surgery. I am just thrilled that my day is better now than it was prior to my surgery. I had been on pain pills, fairly regularly, for the better part of the past 7 years and now rarely need them. To think now that I just need to see her a few times a month instead of medication, I am extremely pleased."

Numbness / tingling and pain in hand & forearm

"When I went to see Dr. Churchill, I had such severe pain in my arm at night that I would only get 4 hours sleep. Pain medicine didn’t help me. After ONE treatment at Mid City Chiropractic with the Graston Technique and chiropractic care, I slept all through the night! Slowly the pain and numbness have gone away. It has now been over 8 weeks and there is no pain and very little numbness, which is only brief during some mornings. If I do my exercises she has prescribed, the pain and tingling go away immediately.

At other doctor’s offices, I would tell them about my problems of pain / numbness in my fingers, hand, arm, and shoulder and they would just work on my back and neck. At Dr. Churchill’s office, she directed her treatment to the area I actually had the pain. Based on my results, I have told everyone I know about the Graston treatment. It is wonderful!!"

Shoulder, arm and hand pain

"The Graston Technique has been an excellent therapy for the persistent pain in my arms and hands. I had even explored surgery as an option prior to this, but since using this method, I truly have never felt better. I highly recommend this treatment to anyone who has had arm, shoulder and hand pain. I noticed results after only a few visits, but more importantly, they have lasted well beyond the therapy itself.

I have been to several other chiropractors in the past, but Dr. Churchill is the only one who has made a lasting difference in the way she has helped alleviate my pain and discomfort. She spent the time on my initial visit to make sure she understood my condition and then provided specific treatments that have truly helped manage the pain and discomfort. She is the only chiropractor I have been to who did such a thorough exam before starting treatment.

I would without question recommend a visit to her. Very thorough and professional!!"

Elbow pain

"I’ve been a sonographer for 28 years and had developed severe pain in my elbow. It would come and go but after a period of time became constant. I would literally lift my left arm with my right hand because of the pain that would occur while trying to bend my left elbow. A fellow sonographer told me about Dr. Churchill and the Graston Technique. After several treatments over a period of a couple months, I am pain-free. I no longer have the expense of anti-inflammatory meds, physical therapy or doctor appointments. I feel Dr. Churchill and the Graston Technique have turned around what I thought to be a career ending injury. 

I liked the holistic atmosphere of Dr. Churchill’s office. Her knowledge of holistic practices and her attentiveness to my needs goes far beyond the regular medical office visit. My questions were always answered and I was encouraged to call anytime other questions would arise."
