More effective than any doctor, neurologist, allergist, physical therapist, etc for headaches!!!

I went to him being 4 months pregnant and having horrible daily headaches that were affecting my job and my life in general. My OB was going to prescribe me headache pills (fioricet or midrin) - which never worked for me historically even when I wasn't pregnant... only Imitrex had helped with the big ones - but you can't take Imitrex if you're pregnant... I tried taking some Vicodin that I had left over from a previous knee surgery - they sometimes helped, but Tylenol did nothing. Even at that, medicines only really cover up the problem, they don't fix it. So she sent me to a physical therapist who did some myofacial stuff and other "exercises"... they did nothing helpful and I left each visit feeling weird to worse.

2 co-workers who are pretty picky in every other aspect in their lives referred me to Tobin (Dr. Dobler)... After one visit - my headaches disappeared for 5 days... Tobin gave me a stretch (even the PT didn't do that) and after a few adjustments - I feel much better. One day I had an 'emergency' where I had a horrible headache and was trying to hold out till my next appointment, but couldn't... I called him and he fit me in that day - a 2+ day headache... was gone w/in 3 hours of seeing him...

As far as I'm concerned - he's a godsent to headache sufferers everywhere... and from what 2 others I've referred to him and the 2 who referred me to him (who also tried the doctor route) - he's nothing short of a miracle worker. For folks who had a bad experience w/other chiropractors... he would be the other end of the spectrum. He really knows what he's doing and doesn't put you on a schedule to see him for the rest of your life - he aims to fix what ails you... I STRONGLY recommend him!

• Pros: Patient, Listens, can fit you in right away
• Cons: Can't think of one.
