Recovery From A Fall

“A couple of years ago I had slipped on the last stair of my mother-in-law’s staircase and ended up with lower back pain ever since. I saw a chiropractor in Toronto who temporarily relieved my lower back pain after several visits, however, I was never really fully relieved of the pain. Recently the pain came back and was in full force. I was barely able to sit or bend down to pick up my two-year old without being in excruciating pain. My wife had found Dr. Mike Spearman online and he was able to fit me in immediately due to my circumstances and the pain that I was in.

When I arrived I was greeted with very pleasant staff and was seen by Dr. Spearman right away. I could barely lie down on the table. As Mike worked on me he was explaining in detail what he was doing and why. He was explaining a muscle resistance technique that he was performing on me which was amazing. When he finished I sprang up from the table as if I were a new man! Not only did he fix my lower back but he realigned places in my body that I didn’t even know were out.

I can’t remember the last time that I felt this good. While I was there I had mentioned to him about nose surgery that I was going to have done. For the past 20 or so years I haven’t been able to breathe through my left nostril due to a deviated septum. Dr. Spearman performed a couple of techniques on me and once he was finished I was able to breathe through my left nostril for the first time in 20 years! All I can say is Dr. Spearman is amazing and I highly recommend him to anyone. Thank you so much, Mike! Oh! Did I mention that all of this was performed in a one hour visit?”

Parasites

“I have been a patient of Mike’s for over 15 years, and he always diagnoses me correctly and finds the correct supplements for me. A few months ago I had a horrible problem with little bumps all over that itched like crazy, and they weren’t from bugs. I just couldn’t stand it, and the itching often turned to bleeding, and kept me up at night. I tried a treatment that didn’t get rid of the situation. So I came to Mike and he found that I had parasites that were most likely causing this. He gave me specific supplements with directions on how to take them, and within weeks the problem was gone! This had gone on for months, and I was at a loss. But now I feel normal again. Mike primarily uses Standard Process supplements and he always knows which ones to recommend.

There have been other body issues over the years that have plagued me to varying degrees, and Mike has helped me to handle them when they come up. This includes times when I needed chiropractic adjustments too. I am very grateful for Mike’s care and expertise in the area of Nutrition and Chiropractic.

Thank you!”

The Magic Of Chiropractic – Pediatric, Child Chiropractic Care

Dr, Spearman: In the past 25 years I have been fortunate to give approximately 50 thousand chiropractic adjustments. The routine is less pain or pain resolved, less fatigue and/or better overall body function. 

It is simple: chiropractic adjusting reduces stress on your nerves and your nerves run your body. I and other chiropractors have said this a million times so one more time will not insult your intelligence much more. This statement is so simple that people often have trouble believing it. When a nerve gets irritated there is trouble for the body short or long term. An irritated nerve even if you do not feel it creates degeneration in your body slowly or quickly. Regular visits to get an adjustment reduces and eliminates nerve irritation. Every now and again there are remarkable stories as the result of chiropractic adjusting. 

Here is a recent story to demonstrate the magic of chiropractic. I have 2 patients who are married and the husband I have been seeing for about 10 years and his wife for 4 or 5 years. The two became parents a year and a half ago. Things went well for baby except she did not start walking even a few months after expected. Mom and dad bring her in, and here is the success story dad wrote for me…

“My daughter Remi was definitely slow to crawl, and slow to walk. Not by pediatricians terms, but comparatively with other children. I personally have a history of major foot issues in my family which has always been a concern of mine when having children.

When Remi was crawling we noticed she was constantly tugging on her left foot and being fussy. We took her to Dr. Spearman and he did a minor adjustment on her foot and spine. It seemed dramatic since no child likes anyone tugging on their foot… but he was very careful. The next day she stopped pulling on her foot and started crawling much much more.

The same happened recently when she started walking. Late again, grabbing her foot, being frustrated, and my wife noticed her leg being less strong when balancing. We brought her in again, and with a couple more similar adjustments she was literally walking over 7 steps two days later. She is now walking across the house perfectly normally 2 weeks later and strong for her age with no fussiness.

Dr. Spearman has been unbelievably integral in the maintenance of good health for my entire family, including my little one.”

“It was one of those rainy LA mornings. I was walking across slipping-when-wet tiles and my left heel slid in front of me while my right went back and I landed on my 70-year-old butt. I got up and my right ankle was sore. As the day progressed, the ankle swelled until I had to use a wheelchair to get home due to pain. I did the relax-ice-compress-elevate thing and hobbled for a day. Then I hobbled to Dr. Spearman. He found I had wrenched my back and did whatever mysterious and magical adjustments he does. When I got up from the table, my ankle pain was gone and I walked home normally. No re-occurrence of pain in the week since.  Thank you!”

One Last Chance

“Since 2001, I had low back pain and had tried one chiropractor and one applied kinesiologist chiropractor.  I ran out of money and insurance and so just gave up in March 2003 and quit going.  By summer 2003 I found myself crying one morning as I was trying to do home exercises for my back, a special method, to no relief.  I thought my decade long quest in a professional activity would be dispelled due to low back pain and inability to sit for one hour or more!  I was in grief, crying to myself-and I never do that!  Dr. Spearman cured this chronic pain in 12 visits in August 2003.  I feel like the CORE PROBLEM in my lower back is now handled!!  I can now pursue my professional desire and sit for two plus hours as a counselor with confidence!  Thanks for your interest and research in the particularities of the lower back, Dr. Spearman!”

Patient Debbi Young Talks About Losing 100 LBs

Dr. Spearman: Debbie Young was very overweight and afflicted with so many maladies it was suggested she go to the Mayo Clinic. Instead, she came to Dr. Mike Spearman. He treated her with adjustments, supplements and incorporated the use of muscle testing.  Now, she is the picture of health and lost over 100 lbs.

Genetic Defect

“This body of mine came with a genetic defect that under allopathic (medical doctor) care would have included surgery, spinal fusion, and their complications.  I decided to journey the alternative therapy routes that included chiropractic care.

I’ve tried many therapies both alternative and conventional and thus far, the traditional manual chiropractic adjustment approach has provided the most favorable long-term results for me.

Due to the unpredictability of the condition and the pain that accompanied it, for many years I carried x-rays with me wherever I went.  After more than 20 years of treatments/adjustments, exercises and nutrition, I was able to leave the x-rays behind. For the following 10 years I was almost pain-free, with the exception of weakness and discomfort in the L5/L6 area, and an annoying low-grade pain in my right hip.

After only a few treatments in early 2003 with Dr. Spearman my hip pain subsided, and has not returned.  That’s been over 9 months ago!  Unbelievable—no hip pain!!!  Dr. Spearman found the “Why” and I’m very grateful!!!

I have been literally to hundreds of chiropractors across the United States over the years, and Dr. Spearman is right up there at the top.  What I experienced is his passion for his work, his interest in the well being of his patients, and his, and his diligent research performed with wisdom, perseverance, and intelligence.  He’s continually enhancing his abilities as a comprehensive physician in the healing arts. I’m so excited!  My hip is totally fixed.  As you gave me the adjustment a week ago for my hip being out of place slightly for several months, I didn’t really think you could do much about it since it was so chronic.  You were confident and I went along with it, just to try it.

Today I went to the gym and did my stretches, as usual and could stretch my leg that I had not been able to do without pain or discomfort for months and had stopped stretching it much due to not wanting to aggravate it.

Again, since it was so chronic I didn’t think an adjustment would do much or if it would that it would maintain itself. A week later my hip is perfect!!

Additionally, I increased your recommended nutrients back up to 3 tabs a day.  I had dropped down to 1 a day and didn’t feel so good as I should.  I had been afraid of getting too much energy and not sleeping or something, but increasing the nutrients back up to your recommendations I feel wonderful, not stressed and not over-energized.  Great work.

Thank you!”

Success With Dr. Spearman

“Ever since I began visiting Dr. Spearman’s office, my health has improved. In the last several months; however, I’ve noticed huge changes in the way my body functions. Even though I’m nearing retirement age, my body, these days, feels like it is 20 years old.

My joints are more flexible, my limbs more responsive and I feel much stronger. If anything gets stressed, things just naturally seem to snap back into shape. Perhaps not as good as when I was on the high school gymnastics team but like never before in the last two decades.

I started going to Dr. Spearman for adjustments because of spasms in my arm and shoulder. My muscles would twitch on one whole side of my body, usually the left. At times, it would be a spasm concert where some muscles on my arm twitched and others in my back responded with jerks. Sometimes the involuntary muscle movement ran down my left leg.

The twitching was so bad, often times during the night that the uncontrolled spasms would literally wake me up. Once they started, there was nothing I could do but wait for them to subside.

I went to see a medical doctor. My left arm was going numb, so the doctor ordered 14 x-rays. Who knows how much radiation I accumulated for inconclusive evaluation of the problem and critical remarks over not taking care of my back like I should? I also received an analysis of which discs were worn or in bad shape, and I was informed there was no tumor. Yet, the muscle twitching continued.

After several visits for adjustments at Dr. Spearman’s office, the alignment of my spine improved and limb joints started fitting back into place. The spasms slowed in frequency. Today, they no longer exist as my back remains straighter and my neck is better aligned. In my back, I don’t hear cracking vertebrae any longer.

During the visits, Dr. Spearman began checking me out on supplements. I had done a lot of research on supplements and I knew I was taking what I needed – until Dr. Spearman showed me through his testing procedure that the supplements I had selected were actually impeding my immune system.

Over time, this nutrient rebalancing also handled what I call my “LA cough.” Anytime I few in, within a week or 10 days, I would develop this dry cough.

With the latest regimen of supplements Dr. Spearman put me on, the cough went away in 36 hours. I was able to organize and be the narrator of my latest screenplay during an important reading – with no coughing at all!

At this point, I visit Dr. Spearman for a tweak here and there. Maintenance is vital. It’s amazing how much my body has gone through. I never realized that muscles, nerves, eyes, the prostate and other body parts and physiological systems needed more nutrients and better attention. The proof that something was wrong is unmistakable.

What I’m really happy about was taking a flight yesterday, picking up 50-pound bulky suitcase from the airport carousel and manhandling it – with no permanent problem. In the past, this action would have thrown out my back for days. All I had to do this time was stretch a bit and sit up straight for everything to snap back in place.

My energy level remains high. With little to no attention on my body, I can enjoy life and create to my heart’s content.

This is what I call service.”

– Jacob Kamhis, Honolulu, Hawaii

 

Neck and Back

“I have noticed a considerable change in the way my entire back feels since I started my treatments with Dr. Spearman. I’ve never been able to go so long without feeling the pain in my neck and low back.

I’ve seen many, many chiropractors over the years and the adjustments simply wouldn’t stay corrected for long before I was feeling discomfort again. My back is now stabilized and I feel great all the time!”

Debilitating Pain

“I came to Dr. Spearman with pain that was completely debilitating. He fixed that right away. He told me I needed 8 to 10 visits to handle the chronic problem that caused the situation. Well, 8 visits later, I feel no pain at all, and my big win is that I actually feel stronger and taller, actually taller and straighter. I was very happy with the service and the professionalism.”

G.F.

 

Hip Issues

“Wow! Incredible!! Unbelievable!!! I have had my left hip out of place for over 4 years. I had been to MANY chiropractors and the adjustments either didn’t work at all or didn’t stay in. NONE of the adjustments handled my particular situation. As a result, my mobility had become very much impaired and one leg was longer than the other. I was resigned to having this situation for the rest of my life. Fortunately, I was introduced to Dr. Spearman. I was a bit skeptical about trying yet ANOTHER chiropractor, but he explained that he has a special technique for particular hip displacements. So, I thought I’d give it a try. VOILA!!! The instant he did the adjustment I KNEW my hip was FINALLY HANDLED, I had to hold back the tears. I was absolutely elated!!! It has been three months now and my hip is STILL in place! A thousand “thank-yous” for your expertise, Dr. Spearman!”

Success In Just Two Treatments

“Thank you so much, Dr. Spearman!

I had on my right side in the BACK, a bad almost unendurable pain whenever I would do one of my favorite tasks – cooking – for long periods in my kitchen.

In one! visit this pain ceased. Not only that, my ribs on my left had started dislocating in a sudden-need-to-be-handled Right now! Very distressing sensation sort of way. This, after 2 treatments has almost entirely vanished.

This really does prove Dr. Spearman’s technique is truly correct!”

Dr. Mike Heals a Doctor….

“I had to let you know how much better I am feeling and the huge improvement I have experienced since I visited your office last October. As you know, your muscle resistance diagnostic technique revealed my allergy to nightshades. Since I stopped eating these foods I have had no abdominal cramping, no heartburn, and a tremendous increase in energy. I used to take a strong antacid, Prevacid, to stop my severe heartburn. I was diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) years ago and even needed a surgical procedure in June 2000, to correct several bouts of diverticulitis in previous years. Now all is well thanks to you! And since completing your nutritional program for my liver, I am now able to tolerate and enjoy some potatoes and peppers now and then.Thanks so much for my huge win.”

Sincerely, Dr. Bruce Kiraly

I have been going to Dr. Spearman off and on for years for chiropractic and nutrition. I find him very knowledgeable. I had a very unpleasant experience with planter fasciitis a few years ago and had been limping for many months. After one treatment with Dr. Spearman my limp ceased and the pain abated and was completely gone in short order. Dr. Spearman knows his stuff!

We (the family) have been patients of Dr. Spearman's for years. The successes we have had across the board are huge! He is able to identify what's happening in the body and pair it up with the Chiropractic and proper nutrition, where we feel positive changes occurring in days not months!! This amazing knowledge and care is what brings us back. More recently I brought a family member in, she had a sudden onset of severe acid reflux. The regular doctors gave her medication which made her feel really bad. Dr. Spearman was able to get her off that medication and rid her of the acid reflux completely in a little over two weeks. It's now been over a month and the acid reflux is gone. For myself personally, my ankles had been bothering me. I went in as my my left ankle was almost too painful to walk on. He adjusted my knee and my ankle also suggesting some standard process vitamins and I have been not only pain-free but my flexibility has greatly improved!

Update after my back adjustment last week. I am almost 70 and had my first lower back pain starting about a month ago. Very painful twinges that occasionally brought out an involuntary gasp or moan. Nasty stuff and I'm not used to it. Got the adjustment from Dr Spearman last week and it helped immediately. What is remarkable is that it has continued to get better to the point where, today, no pain at all! I was really bummed about the idea that I would be having this pain the rest of my life and be bent over and hobbling around. Now I'm pretty much back to normal, without pain. Thanks, Doc!

Dr. Spearman is great. Not only does he do chiropractic adjustments (and you can request gentle or more aggressive adjustments), he does muscle release and balancing, helps you with nutrition and suggests supplements that will support the body in functioning at its best. What is interesting to me is that he does things like looks back at physical trauma a patient may have experienced in the past and he has ways of releasing locked-up energy from those injuries. Dr. Spearman also published a book called Change Your Posture, Change Your Life! Which has helped me to be aware of my posture and helped me to make some important corrections that support my body.

I'll let the numbers talk for me. In Dec 2013, my blood pressure was 220 over 140. Yesterday, it was 117 over 72. Pretty nice eh! I'd like to thank Dr Spearman for his invaluable assistance. You can go on medical drugs for life and never handle your blood pressure. Those same drugs will have side effects. I am not on any drugs. I do take supplements routinely as needed.

I've been seeing Dr. Spearman for at least 4 years now. He's a great practitioner, and treats you on a holistic level. I first started seeing him for stress management. I'm an RN and was more exposed to the allopathic way of treating pts. I was amazed at how natural supplements curbed my anxiety and overall feeling of wellness. His chiropractic skills are excellent. He's so intuitive in his practice that when i sometimes forget about an ache I have in my joints, he can still tell where I need the adjustment through muscle testing. He has been seeing my dad as well who has early dementia. He was on aricept (prescription medication) at the height of his dementia. No prescription meds has helped him and he just got progressively worse. When he started seeing my dad and started him on supplements, we saw a significant improvement on his mental alertness. I recommend Dr. Spearman to anybody wanting to take better care of themselves. Unless i need urgent/emergency care, Dr. Spearman is my go-to practitioner. Thank you so much Dr. Spearman!

After experiencing an intense 3-day migraine, complete with vomiting, I visited Dr. Spearman. I have been seeing another chiro whom I have liked for adjustments, so I only went for a nutritional consultation. Dr. Spearman DID adjust me when he found some things that were not right - adjustments I had not had in the last 4 weeks with my other chiro. And an hour later I noticed my headache was down to just a "nub". I got through the entire evening and night without the same intense pain I've had for days. It was a massive relief. I know that Dr. Spearman's adjustments must have been spot-on for this to occur. Grateful. Will be back.

He was the only person that figured me out. I had back pains for more than a year straight. They were always in my lower back area and I had no idea what was happening. My right hand was completley dry for that year as well, which was related. I had other problems with my gall bladder as well as gall bladder stones and some other stuff that you dont want to know about. I didnt know what was happening with me and I decided to get this thing handled. So I decided im going to go to different doctors etc until someone figures out what the hell is going on. I started off by going to a free clinic and got some blood tests taken as well as a urine test. Two weeks later i got results and that I didnt have anything. So next I decide in that same day as i got the results that i will see an actual doctor and so i did. I wasted $150 as she wasnt able to figure what was happening. She did a regular physical and everything seemed healthy per her. So to no avail i still dont have the answer to my problems. So i gave up on "western medicine" and I went to see the top Dr. at a chinese medicine university and i get some accupuncture (which was not as bad as i thought it would be). Randomly my legs felt great after that but still no answer to what is going on with me. So I gave up and all my hope was lost. I then mentioned to my friend that i went to three places to handle this and no one knows whats going on. My friend told me to see Dr Spearman as he had something similair. So I do go see him and he did this muscle testing and figured out I am allergic to gluten! Who would of known?! He also threw in a free adjustment for me and gave some supplements as I had developed a fungus in my intestines. My intestenial linning was messed up and I was malnutritioned as well due to the gluten. Within 6 weeks I felt way better i had more energy and no i just stay off of wheat. I am so very thankful for this as he was the only health practitioner that got some results.

I had issues with sleeping which are not unusual for my age. Nonetheless, it was really wearing me out. I saw Michael for the first time. After one visit, and some thorough testing, he put me on supplements. I was willing to give it a try although I have been to chiro's in the past who sold me supplements that quite frankly didn't noticeably change much of anything. The very same night I had the best sleep I'd had in months! I was very impressed. Dr. Spearman is a very personable guy, which makes him a joy to work with and a feeling of trustworthiness too. But, the bottom line is results. He got that for me.

Dr. Spearman has been my chiropractor for years, even though I don't have to see him regularly. I see him when I need him. He fixed a situation in my hips that had been making my back go out and so instead of needing to go regularly, I just go when I've been on a plane for a long time or something like that. Generally, my back, hips and neck are stable and good. He adjusted my toe once and it felt better than it had from orthotics and prolotherapy.

I have had back issues because of my job and also stomach problems because of the food I eat. So, I was looking for a place to help me with natural products and this place is perfect because the doctor not only does he use chiropractic skills but he gives you supplements for any issues that you specifically have. I've been coming here since 2018 and I will continue to come because I won't stop working or eating.

I have had a an issue with my lower back for over 15 years and had seen countless chiropractors! It would get so bad every once in a while that I couldn’t stand up. I saw Dr. Spearman twice and he found something that none of my other chiropractors did and explained exactly what was wrong that would cause such intense pain! I think he may have fixed me up for good!

This place is awesome... I haven't felt this good in a long time. They find out what your body needs and wants, ask you what YOU want to see improve and then use Standard Process products and some other select products to achieve those results. Hint: You should be to be willing to give up sugar and other sweeteners. 40% of my improvement happened when went hardcore no sugar and sweeteners. That's my experience anyways. Yours will be different I'm sure and you'll definitely be better.
