Lots Of Pain Due To A Fall

I was experiencing a lot of pain due to a fall while walking our dog. Medical docs, after examining x-rays determined there to be 'trauma' and that if the pain continued, they would consider steroid injections. That was not a good option for me; found Dr. Beavers and through the treatments and dedication to the exercises and plan provided, the pain dissipated. I continue to go and follow through in order to gain flexibility (something I lost a long time ago) and to be able to fully function for all my desired activities.

Work Related Neck Injury

Approximately 35 years ago I had a severe work related neck injury. For which I needed surgery. I was not successful. About 10 years later I was rear-ended in an automobile accident causing more damage to my neck. It was at that time I was referred to Dr. Jeffery Beavers for treatment and continued with weekly visits.

RESULTS:  Dr. Beavers has helped me “live through” my neck problems, back problems and migraines. I am deeply grateful for all he has done for me this past 25 years. I will have my 97th birthday in October and I sincerely believe I am still living independently because he had “kept me on my feet”!

Neck Pain Testimonial

I came to Dr. Beavers for the first time on January 21, 2000. At that time I had an acute curve in my neck. My neck was so crooked that my nose was about an inch to the left of my spine, arthritis has set in, and my vertebrae was starting to fuse stiff. My job as a dance/theatre instructor was hindered adversely and my quality of life was deteriorating.

RESULTS:  After a year under Dr. Beavers’ care the curve was no longer a feeling of an electrical shock running down my leg, my balance, as a dancer, improved, the range of motion in my neck returned to normal. (Driving a car was safer because I was able to turn my head around.) Today I am dancing and living with the blessing of rejuvenated physical dexterity and pain free movement.

Sciatic and Neck Pain Testimonial

Thank you Dr. Beavers! After years of suffering from bouts of sciatic pain and neck pain, I have relief. My neck seldom bothers me anymore and I only suffer from back pain when I overdo. Even that lump at the base of my neck is gone and has never come back. When I made my appointment to see you upon the recommendation of a friend I was nervous and dubious. My only other experience with a chiropractor was not reassuring. But you practice is very different. In the six years I have been coming to you I have never had to wait for hours for my appointment; you never hurt me, or given me advice I found difficult to believe, My son has also been seeing you and says his migraines are stopped in their tracks as soon as you adjust him. And what we thought was my grandson’s nervous twitch turned out to be his neck out of alignment. It is like a miracle. He is even more coordinated for the first time in his life. The look on his face when he actually caught a ball that was thrown to him was priceless! I think we all value your professional caring manner, as well as the friendly banter and your sense of humor. And Karen is a delight to work with as well; her efficiency and friendly manner are so much appreciated.

Spinal Decompression Testimonial

In the year of 2017 I was experiencing excruciating pain! Unable to do like I had before. This was when I decided to see my doctor; I was to have an MRI to possibly see why I was suffering. The diagnosis shocked me. 1.Multilevel Disc Disease 2.Scoliosis- I was given lidoderm patches to cope with the pain and sent to another doctor that prescribed a daily dose of mobic.

RESULTS:  In 2018, I moved to Sacramento and saw a chiropractic that referred me to Dr.Beavers, Better Health Chiropractic. My first time on the decompression table for my scoliosis was amazing! I couldn’t wait to go back. It has made a big difference in my acticity. My family has commented and notice the big improvement in my life. Better yet is that I don’t need lidoderm or pills for pain. I do need my adjustments and the spinal decompression table! Thank you Dr. Beavers and staff!

Leg Pain Testimonial
A year and a half ago I was experiencing such excruciating pain down the back of both legs that I often shook and cried when I got up in the mornings. The doctors I went to did nothing for me saying things like I needed to stretch my hamstrings. I had been doing yoga 3 times a week but it wasn’t helping either. My friend recommended Dr. Beavers who took an x-ray and explained what was going on in my lower back.

RESULTS: I have been seeing him every two weeks, doing yoga and walking regularly, and getting a massage once a month and now I am pain free!! Just a year and a half ago I was worried I would be crippled at 60 but now I can do everything I used to do with no pain. I am very grateful to everyone at Better Health Chiropractic. THANK YOU!!

Back Pain Testimonial
I have been a proponent of chiropractic care for years. I started seeing a chiropractor in college when migraine headaches started full force. In the years since, I have continued to see chiropractors as a means to help me manage the migraines. I always focused on my head hurting and paid little attention to my deteriorating back issues. By the time I was in my 50s I had a decided “lean” to the right and pretty much continuous back pain that significantly impacted my day to day life. It was painful to walk any distance and many activities I really enjoyed were no longer possible.

I was referred to Dr. Beavers by a family member but I was reluctant to change doctors as I was seeing a different chiropractor who had been treating me for several years. I did not realize until after visiting Dr. Beavers exactly how bad my back issues were. After conducting a full over-all assessment with X-rays and sitting down with me to review my status, Dr. Beavers recommended a course of treatment which would take commitment on my part. I cried after leaving the office and fully “seeing” for the first time the extent of my back issues. I was not sure I would ever stand up straight again, let alone be without pain in my day to day life. Once I began treatment and saw that Dr. Beavers was not a manual manipulation kind of doc but rather used a funny little gun-like instrument which I swore I could not feel, I really did not think much would change. I did commit however, and fully followed his plan which included daily visits for a while.

RESULTS:  I am several years down the wellness path now and I call Dr. Beavers “Dr. Miracle” and the improvement in my overall health and specifically in my back health is quite honestly, unbelievable. I stand straight now and can walk and hike without pain. The frequency of my headaches has decreased to a point that I only see Dr. Beavers on an as needed basis. I know when I need an adjustment and it makes a difference immediately. I am in such a different place now than when I started treatment, and I am grateful every day when I walk without pain. I cannot say enough about Dr. Beavers and his staff. They are awesome!

Dizziness Testimonial
"For many years I experienced occasional dizziness. It would come and go. Sometimes I was able to power through it and continue to function and sometimes it was severe enough to keep me in bed for a day or two. Eventually it became an everyday problem. By noon I was so dizzy and nauseous I was spending most of the rest of the day sitting or lying. I was seriously concerned about what the quality of the rest of my life would be if I couldn’t find a solution to my problem.

My medical doctor exhausted all tests and medications and was unsuccessful in finding either a cause or a remedy. Fortunately I mentioned my chronic dizziness to a physical therapist that was treating me for some shoulder pain. The therapist told me she had another patient with the same kind of chronic problem. She said that Dr. Beavers had been able to successfully treat her dizziness. Thankfully, because of that referral and regular monthly visits to Dr. Beavers, my chronic daily symptoms are gone and any occasional reoccurrence is quickly remedied. I am forever grateful to Dr. Beavers and his expertise for restoring my quality of life."

- Colleen K.


Chiropractic Care Helps Many Symptoms
"I would like to thank Dr. Beavers and his outstanding staff for the work and service they provide. Number one, I have been both a patient and a UPS driver, delivering parcels to his office for three decades and cannot say enough great things about his practice. Before being seen by Dr. Beavers I had some reservations about chiropractic care, 16 surgeries: 5 on the right knee, 4 on the left knee, 5 surgeries on the left wrist, 1 on the left shoulder and 1 on the right shoulder. I suffered from daily headaches, stiffness in my neck and arthritis through out my body. Dr. Beavers was very patient with me, I had no idea about the benefits of chiropractic care. Thanks again Dr. Beavers and staff for your great service to better health and making me whole again."

- Howard H.


Frozen Shoulder Testimonial

- Darlene S.


Back Pain, Pinched Nerve, Hip & Joint Testimonial
"Over the years I’ve had these issues: Lower back problems, pinched nerve in neck, hip & joint problems, torn shoulder cartilage. Because of distance from home in Galt to Dr. Beavers’ office, I tried a nearby chiropractor. It didn’t help, so I came back to Dr. Beavers.

Dr. Beavers addressed these issues each time, often relating it to my back alignment. X-rays were taken. One of my legs is shorter than the other. It was solved by putting a 7mm lift in the shoe."

- Ray M.


Knee Pain Testimonial
"My knee started hurting and was affecting my jogging - turned out it was caused by my ankle which was out of line. My lower back was bothering me - turned out I didn't realize I had a small calf muscle tear which was causing me to limp slightly which threw out my back.

Dr. Beavers worked on my muscle tear and realigned my back. I refer to him as the Sherlock Holmes of chiropractors. He listens to you and then figures out why you have the pain. Quite often the area that hurts isn't what is causing the problem, but it is a result of some other issue. I have been going to Dr. Beavers for close to 20 years and highly recommend him; If you want both the cause and effect treated in a gentle but effective manner, then Dr. Beavers is the chiropractor you need."

- Tom H.

Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis Testimonial
"I have Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis ( DISH). It was five years of pain before I was diagnosed by a chiropractor in Redding. Five medical doctors couldn’t figure out why I was in so much back pain. The chiropractor too a series of X-rays and with a radiologist, diagnosed me with DISH. When I moved to Sacramento, my Redding chiropractor did research and found Dr. Beavers for me.

I see Dr. Beavers every other week. I cannot be manually manipulated, as that would be worse for my condition. Since starting with Dr. Beavers my condition has improved greatly, I am NOT in constant pain and am 95% better at all times! He uses his “tools” and I feel better all the time. I went from living in total misery to feeling great! He has also helped my migraines. If pain flares up, the office always fits me in so I am not suffering until my next appointment. He has truly saved me from a life of pain! And I just love Karen!"

- Judy G.


Arthritis Pain Testimonial
"When I started going to Dr. Beavers it was because I was having aches and pain which I believed was from moving boxes and having arthritis. I also hurt my shoulder which was very painful. Dr. Beavers did x-rays and then explained that I was out of joint in some places and my shoulder showed signs of swelling.

Dr. Beavers saw me 2-3 times a week for a few months and gave me exercises to do at home. I could feel myself being more active and flexible after just a few sessions. I go twice a month for maintenance now.

After 3 years with maintenance sessions I feel like a new person, when I feel sore I schedule an appointment and feel great again, Dr. Beavers keeps my body going and moving into my 60 years. I recommend Dr. Beavers to all my friends; I am proof that his methods work and his staff is excellent to work with!"

Back, Hip & Leg Pain Testimonial

Neck Pain Testimonial
"I injured my neck and spine in a three car accident in Burlington, Vermont in 1978. It took me a year of constant pain and drugs before I desperately sought chiropractic care. Fortunately for me, I had a trusted friend who was a chiropractor. When I left Vermont for Boston, I traveled to New Hampshire to get treatment from someone my friend recommended. This was a four hour round trip.

I have been with Better Health Chiropractic care since 2006. The clinic is clean and professionally staffed. Dr. Beavers is extremely knowledgeable, ethical and affordable. I have been pain free, with weekly adjustments. I have returned to full mobility and can do activities without fear. I recommend this clinic to anyone having pain, injury or immobility."

- Gregory B.


Sciatica Pain Testimonial
"When I first came to Dr. Beavers 20 years ago, I had sciatica. The pain was so severe that my mother had to help me up the steps to his office.

The pain subsided after a few visits. When I was pain free, Dr. Beavers prescribed stretching exercises which I do to this day. I have continued with regular, consistent treatment, that combined with Dr. Beavers advice and knowledge has kept me pain free. I am 74 years old and in the best shape of any of my peers. I attribute this to the skill and knowledge I receive from Dr. Beavers."

- Marilyn A.


Back Pain Testimonial
"I have back problems since my forties; lower back mainly then with aging and extreme activities I developed other issues. At this point I am dealing with arthritis and a bulging disc around the cervical.

Dr. Beavers is a “Miracle Doctor”, I am under his chiropractic care for more than 20 years. He not only knows exactly where the problem is but most importantly he gives me immediate relief. His advice is sound; his care for me as a patient is genuine, his skills as a chiropractor are excellent. If you are ever in his hands you are in the best hands possible. Dr. Beavers please do not retire; we need you! You are a caring, talented professional one of the few left!"

- Katia K.


Back Pain Testimonial
"I, reluctantly, came to Dr. Beavers about 2 and a half years ago with lower back pain problems. I say reluctantly because the thought of someone “cracking” my bones in areas already sore seemed barbaric. My family never believed in seeking help for pain from anyone except M.D.s, who mostly gave pills.

My results are amazing! After just a few visits my lower back pain was minimal and none of the “bone cracking” was done. I’m convinced that by continual visits to Dr. Beavers I am able to function relatively “normal”. I’ve often told him he has healing hands. By having regular adjustments my life style is greatly improved. Doing my normal day to day activities is easy.

I have recommended Dr. Beavers to several friends who like me, are tired of continual pain. Those who have taken my advice are excited about their improvements!"

- Susan S.


Spinal Decompression Testimonial
"I had a protruding (bulging) disc that was pinching a nerve. This caused debilitating pain in my right thigh. I was flat on my back! I went through the spinal decompression treatments and by the third treatment the pain was under control. By the end, I was able to return to work and back to normal.

For qualifying injuries the spinal decompression is the best treatment available- No knives/needles!"

- Randy A.


Spinal Decompression Testimonial
"My treatment with Dr. Beavers began as the result of being a heavy equipment operator for over 20 years. Before that time, I raced motocross and received many injuries, including having a stainless steel screw put in my ankle. My occupation and love of competing have been very hard on my back. I also fell and broke my tailbone several years ago.

My back problems usually went away after several days of bed rest. This last time I hurt my back came from a sneezing attack that caught me off guard. I experienced excruciating and debilitating pain. The pain in my back caused me to put stress on my hip, which was a secondary issue. I found I couldn’t comfortably do anything and was bedridden for a week. I worried that I wouldn’t be able to go back to work when spring rolled around and realized at the age of 50, I wasn’t ready to call it quits.

I really didn’t want to deal with my healthcare provider and knew they would suggest a lot of drugs and probably surgery. I wanted to see if a chiropractor could help me. A friend of mine knew Dr. Beavers and I called for a consultation.

I barely could walk into his office and sitting upright in a chair was almost impossible without bringing tears to my eyes. He thought I would be a good candidate for spinal decompression. This treatment option appealed to me. It was convenient and less invasive than back surgery. I needed my vertebra to heal and was grateful I had another option.

The treatments were relaxing and fit easily into my daily routine. I liked the more natural approach to healing and Dr. Beavers knew exactly what to do to make me feel better.

After completing my treatments, I have now gone back to work and my daily activities. I know not to over do it, but cannot tell you how great I feel. I would recommend spinal decompression as a true alternative to going under the surgeon’s knife. It is not just the surgery itself, but the 4 or 5 month healing process."

- Dave T.

Migraines / Neck Pain Testimonial

The good Doctor recommended an exercise regimen that included stretching that has provided relief and to the overall regular visits to treat my lower back. I am in much better shape than when I first visited Dr. Beavers."
