"I was in a motor vehicle accident that caused major trauma to my entire body. My body was smashed inside and out. Many surgeries later and lots of healing I felt my body had reached a plateau in its ability to heal. Diet and exercise no longer were helping. Chronic pain was setting in. Since Dr. Chadfield I have been sleeping better. Pain has been reduced. Muscles are firing and regaining strength and definition. Digestion has become regular Dr. Chadfield has given me new hope to a full recovery." PF
I came to Dr. Chadfield with a long term case of Bells Palsy from a case of Shingles. Dr. Chadfield spent a lengthy time each visit and began gentle manipulative therapy for the course of 12 weeks. The facial nerves are relaxed and I am happy to report that I almost have my full smile back along with less and less pain as the nerves are responding to therapy. LH
Dr. Chadfield was recommended to me by my husband, who is a family practice Doctor. He could not say enough good things about her and had many of his own patients receive wonderful care from her. I have been suffering with pain from spinal stenosis for a few years, went through physical therapy, medications, injections, but it wasn't until coming to her that not only did I start feeling better. I felt hopeful again that I will get back to my optimal living. I know that Dr. Chadfield wants that for me, just as much as me and my family do! KS
Several years ago I started seeing Dr. Chadfield for neuromuscular pain management. Since this time, I have experienced improved pain management with fewer corticosteroid injections. I have referred friends and family who have struggled with intractable pain to Dr. Chadfield. Many have remarked how unique it is to have a doctor who takes time to listen to their concerns and also provides competent evaluation and treatment. JV
Yes, Dr. Chadfield uses a combination of patient education, stretching, manipulation, and core muscle strengthening that is very effective. She avoids pain medications because they do not treat the problem. She utilizes a very capable group of therapists, pain management specialists and surgeons if further treatment is required.
Cranial molding can lead to feeding dysfunction, facial asymmetry, colic (and more). Gentle techniques encourage the tissues to release to better alignment. Pressures are very mild and seem to feel like massage to the newborn. The manipulation has no risk and the results are wonderful.
Both use manipulation
Dr. Chadfield's training is as a conventional doctor as well as manipulation. Osteopathic physicians use different techniques for manipulation. Most patients feel the manipulation is very gentle. Chiropractor's treatments are focused on the spine. Osteopaths treat the entire body. A wider range of treatment options can be considered with Osteopathic medicine, including prescription medications, surgery, physical therapy, nutrition, topical compounded medications, massage and more.
