24 year old female patient: "I was in a car accident that led to upper and lower back and neck discomfort. After visiting Dr. Verna I noticed positive changes. In addition to my body feeling better, my health has improved and I am open to trying new methods to improve my healthy lifestyle."

18 year old female patient: "During a visit to New York with my family we were rear ended by a shuttle bus that launched the car 50 feet and rendered the vehicle inoperable. After the accident I suffered crippling, chronic migraines 2-3 times a week. I also suffered whiplash and injuries in my neck which affected my daily life. I took medication from my family doctor but it only masked the pain. After visiting Acqua Chiropractic Spa, I realized Dr. Verna and her employees set the standard high. Not only did my migraines decrease after seeing Dr. Verna but I had a renewed sense of wellness and felt more rested and alert. Dr. Verna explained every detail of my condition to me in ways I could understand and the cheerful staff helped me feel that everything was being done to help me recover. Now, in addition to being migraine free, treatment at Acqua Chiropractic Spa has provided me with a renewed sense of health and the ability to wake up pain free everyday!"

39 year old female patient: "For many years, I have had a C1/C2 rotational subluxation and scoliosis in the upper spine. The physical strain of having a young child turned out to be the tipping point and my neck and shoulder muscles on the left side began to spasm, significantly reducing my range of motion and causing frequent, severe migraines. I saw a rehabilitative back specialist (M.D.). She was helpful in diagnosing the problem and referring me to an amazing physical therapist who was able to temporarily relieve the severity of my symptoms. Unfortunately, neither of them could actually fix the problem and as soon as I stopped my weekly routine of physical therapy and massage, which had become quite expensive, my discomfort returned in full force. I was told by several medical doctors that it would be too risky to attempt to move the C1 back into alignment because it had been rotated for so many years. I was determined that this was the only way to regain my health, and discovered through my research on Atlas subluxation that Chiropractic care was the appropriate treatment; however, my doctors emphatically advised against it. A year and a half after my initial diagnosis, having experienced minimal and only temporary relief through traditional medical treatment, I came to Dr. Verna. Dr. Verna was incredibly sensitive to my concerns about being manipulated. She took the time to explain in detail which areas of my spine were impacted and how she planned to treat those areas. She took every precaution before adjusting me to ensure that my C1/C2 joint was stable, reviewing my MRI and medical reports carefully and sending them to a specialist for a second opinion. My body had been protecting my neck for so many years, that it seemed inconceivable that I could endure manipulation in that area without every muscle in my neck locking up, but I trusted her professionalism and knowledge. Dr. Verna first began working on my upper back, which had a curvature (possibly related to the C1/C2 subluxation), in order to release the muscles around my shoulder blade. I became more comfortable with the idea of adjustment in this less sensitive area of my spine and I saw immediate improvement. At the same time, she began working on the muscles in my neck to improve my range of motion. After about six visits, she asked if I was ready for her to adjust my neck. Although hesitant, I trusted that she would not do anything she thought would be harmful. I was amazed at how quickly I felt relief. In just a few short weeks of adjustments, my range of motion has improved significantly, my shoulders are nearly aligned, my muscular tension is less frequent and less severe. At this point, we are about half-way through my treatment, but my C1/C2 move freely and my muscles are slowly learning to relax. I feel like I have a new lease on life and can’t wait to start exercising again. I highly recommend Dr. Verna and her caring, friendly staff."

52 year old male patient: "I got into a car accident which caused pain and stiffness in my back. After visiting Acqua Chiropractic Spa I had much better range of motion in my back, arms and legs. I feel now that I have better overall health, feelings and better sleep. Thanks Dr. Verna!"

61 year old female patient: "I have pain in my arm, shoulder, side and down my right leg. After seeing Dr. Verna I have complete relief of pain in all areas of my body and feel so much better overall. Thank you."

52 year old female patient: "I have had numbness in my wrist and hands along with neck and shoulder pain. I have become a patient of Dr. Verna as a result of increased pain in my neck and shoulders along with numbness in my hands. I have been so thankful for her care that has restored my physical health after being treated on a regular basis for over a two year period. Dr. Verna has a warm and caring presence, while offering education and healing skills that have restored my body to wellness. She is someone I trust and whose care I value."

18 year old female patient: "I have had issues with neck and shoulder tension resulting in excruciating headaches. My lower back was also bothering me. After seeing Dr. Verna I no longer notice my lower back and the headaches and neck tension have improved dramatically."

22 year old male patient: "I was in a car accident traveling at high speeds on the freeway. After coming to Acqua Chiropractic Spa I have better range of motion in my upper body. Acqua offers a wide range of treatments in addition to Dr. Verna's adjustments, such as electric muscle stimulation, spa jet, saunas, and body massages. The people there are great and offer a warm, friendly environment."

37 year old female patient: "I came into Dr. Verna's office with low back pain and could barely walk. I spoke with Dr. Verna telling her that I was going to buy a cane due to my inability to walk properly on my own. I do not like pain medication so I told the Doctor that I did not want any muscle relaxers. After a thorough examination, Dr. Verna told me that I had muscle spasms and was out of alignment. I came three times a week for treatment and I started to notice progress after the first week. I am now drinking water more and eating less sugar and salt. If I would not have come to Dr. Verna for my back I would still be in serious pain. I feel much more healthy and vibrant now thanks to Dr. Verna. Thank you Doctor and assistants!"

27 year old male patient: "Before getting treatments with Dr. Verna I used to have really bad pain in my back. She helped me with my problem. My pain is almost gone and my improvement is at 85%. At this moment I am feeling more active and happy. The staff are very nice and kind. I f you are in the same or similar situation I recommend you not to think anymore, just make your appointment for a prompt recovery."

43 year old female patient: "In April 2008 I started coming to Dr. Verna's clinic after an accident I had. I was in pain all the time. After 8 months I am feeling much better. My back got better, I sleep through the night and I no longer have constant headaches. Thank you to Dr. Verna and staff. Everybody took really good care of me and they are all very friendly."

52 year old male patient: "I came to see Dr. Verna because I had an accident. My whole body hurt, even my bones, and I had really bad depression. Day by day I began to feel better. All of the staff at Acqua Chiropractic Spa are really nice and I feel like I am part of a family. I am glad to say that I no longer have depression either."

34 year old male patient: "When I came to Dr. Verna it was difficult for me to walk. My spine was misaligned and was really sore. Now, thanks to Dr. Verna and her staff I am feeling a lot better from the treatment I received. I can now go back to work. The staff at Acqua Chiropractic Spa are very good with the patients. Thank you very much."
60 year old female patient: "I had persistent pain in my right hip with a history of pain and restricted motion in my right shoulder. I also had prior problems with my left hip and right back which required PT. After suffering with this pain and restricted motion for about 2 years, I began physical therapy for my right hip and right shoulder. After 5 weeks, there was little to no improvement. Prior to returning to my physician I was referred to Dr. Verna by a friend. Within a few short weeks, I began to see great improvement. Now, after several months, I am practically pain free. In fact, find the exercises give me a way to maintain my strength and pain free health."

34 year old female patient: "I do not know how to explain the pain I was having. Immediately after the accident I had, I began getting headaches. The pain was so bad I could not even walk without holding my head. When I started coming to Acqua Chiropractic Spa, the intake was so thorough, the Doctor even asked to see some of my medical records from other Doctors. She also was very concerned about my well being, on top of the pain. The staff here are very supportive and Dr. Verna is a person who asks you questions and listens to your answers and concerns. I would recommend Acqua Chiropractic Spa to everyone."
