-LOWER BACK PAIN-

"This was my first experience. Dr. Koenig took his time during his diagnosis and chose the best method to treat my ailment. He was very thorough and precise in his treatment. Every time I had contact with Dr. Koenig or his staff I was always treated with a friendly, courteous and professional attitude. His office made me feel comfortable and shared a genuine interest in me and my well-being."

-BACK PAIN, STRESS PAIN-

"The staff has been wonderful. The treatments have helped ease some of the pain. Dr. Koenig has answered my questions and given good advice and suggestions. I have always preferred and still do chiropractic treatment over drugs or surgery. Dr. Koenig and his entire staff has a wonderful bedside manner in making a person feel at ease and comfortable."

-STIFF AND SORE LOWER BACK-

"The staff is friendly and treat me like I am part of their family. Since coming to see Dr. Koenig the pain I was experiencing has not returned and usually it would return after hard physical labor. The stiffness is still present, but no where near the extent it was before visiting with Dr. Koenig."

-HEADACHES-

"In June 2002 I decided to go to Dr. Koenig after an out-of-town chiropractor recommend him. For several months I had been suffering with headaches. Missing work, sleepless nights, unable to function as a husband and a father was creating stress in my life. I went to physicians, ENT specialists and a Neurologist, but the problem was not resolved. After an initial assessment I was given opiates to ease the pain, but unable to get an answer as to what was causing my headaches.

My first adjustment with Dr. Koenig was successful in that my headaches disappeared. He recommended daily exercises along with periodic appointments to manage my pain. Needless to say, I could have hugged Dr. Koenig's neck. I wished I had seen Dr. Koenig first."

-LOWER BACK PAIN-

"I found Dr. Koenig and everyone at his office to be very pleasant and professional. The staff is very good at educating the patient regarding what they are doing and what to expect. Dr. Koenig determined how many visits would be necessary to help relieve my problem. He also showed me specific exercises that I should do at home to help speed my recovery. He encouraged walking to also help. I stuck with my program and followed at home instructions and was relieved to have very successful results! Before my visit it was uncomfortable for me just to rise from a seated position, now I have full comfortable movement and actually enjoying walking!

I had visited orthopedic specialists, had physical therapy, used pain relieving medications before coming to Dr. Koenig . None gave me lasting relief. With continuation of my at home exercises (which are simple to do while I watch TV!) and occasional adjustments. I have experienced tremendous relief! I highly recommend Dr. Koenig's chiropractic care."

-BACK & NECK INJURY-

"I never believed in chiropractic until I was involved in a car accident. Once my treatment began I couldn't believe how much better I felt. At OTMC I am treated as a person not a patient. Now me and my family benefit from the professional care of Dr. Koenig and his staff."

-BACK PAIN-

"I broke my back wrestling in High School and had trouble for years, until I started using a Chiropractor. I have found that it has helped me dramatically, instead of being in pain and uncomfortable in my lower back and neck regular adjustments keep me pain free and limber."

-NECK & BACK PAIN & STIFFNESS-

"I was referred to Dr. Koenig by my husband who was very pleased with the care he received. I came into their office in late 2002 for a neck problem. I was in a lot of pain and medical doctors were not helping. Dr. Koenig was very insightful as to what was happening and educated me on the spine and chiropractic care. I was very at ease with Dr. Koenig and his staff. I started feeling better within the first week or so. He also instructed me on exercises that I should do from now on. With therapy and adjustments I began to heal quickly.

I will continue to use Dr. Koenig for regular maintenance adjustments. I highly recommend him and his staff. They are friendly, knowledgeable and courteous."

-BACK, SHOULDER & NECK-

"The OTMC office atmosphere was calming. The staff was all pleasant, helpful and efficient. I didn't have to wait long enough to read a magazine article! I am a difficult patient; in that I refuse to stop gardening in spite of this, the combination of adjustments and exercises provided by Dr. Koenig, have allowed me to continue to be physically active, free of pain. Doctors have repeatedly recommended medication and more medication, I am thankful for the "natural" healing options offered by chiropractic care."

-LOWER BACK-

"I would like to take a moment to thank the staff at OTMC. I have experienced lower back pain off and on for over 15 years---usually correcting itself within a week or so. This past summer the pain became acute and regardless of any home therapy, nothing seemed to eliminate the pain. Sitting and driving were the two most painful positions. You can often try to eliminate sitting, but it's difficult to drive while standing.

Wanting to take the most conservative approach and with a friend's recommendation, I chose to visit OTM Chiropractic. The up front staff was one of the reasons I decided to make an appointment. They assured me Dr. Koenig would find the problem and correct it or direct me to another medical source. Having never been to another doctor to determine the cause of this pain, I did not know if the pain was due to muscle, nerve or bone (actually I had been to another doctor and he told me it was due to my age (52) and that I would have to live with it.)

After patiently taking the history of the problem, Dr. Koenig took a few X-rays to determine his diagnosis. He was very thorough and took an immense amount of time to explain his findings, and the prognosis. He made recommendations for self therapy to be done at home such as exercises to strengthen the muscles. At no time did I ever feel rushed or that I was not given the time to ask my many questions.

When communication and scheduling was needed to have a MRI and see a neurologist, the staff at OTMC made all the arrangements. They really do work as a team/family and I very much felt a part of this-they were very compassionate on the occasions I came in tearful from pain and no relief. I will forever be grateful for their approach and understanding of my situation."

-BELLS PALSY-

1. "The staff and Dr. Koenig were all very pleasant and concerned.
2. I visited Dr. Koenig for the pain in my face. The pain was completely gone the next day.
3. This was the only treatment that gave me any relief."

-LOWER BACK-

1. "I received excellent service and treatment. The staff was wonderful.
2. My recovery period was right on schedule. I am glad I went to Dr. Koenig when I did.
3. No drugs, no pain killers, etc.
4. Dr. Koenig is very knowledgeable and helpful. He gave excellent tips to help prevent future conditions from happening.
5. I've told all my co-workers and friends about Dr. Koenig."

-SEVERE LOWER BACK PAIN-

"Experience at OTMC has been very positive! Everyone is 'upbeat.'" The exam/diagnosis was prompt and accurate. Treatment is producing positive results. Recovery is occurring as rapidly as possible. Recovery from the initial complaint (unable to sit down) came quickly. The 'intro' video, the back 'stretch' routine, and the advice to 'up' my calcium intake were educational to me. Chiropractic definitely has a place in the field of 'medicine."

-LOWER BACK PAIN, SCIATIC NERVE PAIN-

"Personal interest in patients is what I found at OTMC. Dr. Koenig explained my x-rays, what my spinal problem was, what could he done to help the cause of the back pain and how I could prevent new injuries by exercising the correct way and sleeping in the correct position." "Within a few weeks my back and leg pains were practically gone and my strength for everyday tasks was significantly improved. Dr. Koenig's staff are helpful and went to great lengths to get my insurance questions answered. I recommend Dr. Koenig to all my friends."

-LOWER BACK PAIN-

"Being bothered by lower back pain, I decided to seek relief through chiropractic care. Having been to a chiropractor for back and hip pain before and having seen positive results, I had n reservations about returning. Since my first visit to Dr. Koenig's office, I have been treated very kindly. After being examined Dr. Koenig thoroughly and clearly explained what was the probable cause of my pain, what he could do to eliminate and or alleviate that pain, and even what I could do at home to heal and strengthen my back personally, each time that I return to the office, the Koenig's and the rest of his staff treat me like a friend and provide an environment which is pleasant to be in. I have appreciated their help very much."

-ARTHRITIC PAIN-

"I first visited Dr. Koenig for regular preventive therapy to help ward off severe flare-ups of my arthritis. Every visit has been pure pleasure. The genuine concern of Dr. Koenig and his staff, to help with "exactly what hurts today"- be it knee, neck, hip, or wrist-is a heart and body warming experience. The skill and equipment are superior. Chiropractic Works! Particularly in the hands of Dr. Koenig, and the friendly, caring atmosphere is the plus that makes me look forward to each visit."

-PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE-

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Koenig and his staff for providing a successful and positive facility to keep me in good health. I feel that anyone needs to consider Dr. Koenig a chance to see if chiropractic could help in obtaining improved health. They really care for your health and will do whatever in their power to provide competent service. I have been going to chiropractors for years and feel they and high quality nutrition have helped me maintain good health. Due to this regimen I have been able to recover very well from an auto accident a few years ago. I was classified as ahead of schedule in healing according to the medical literature."

-NECK AND SHOULDER PAIN-

"I believe Chiropractic care is the first remedy we should try before consulting a general practitioner and putting drugs in our bodies."

-LOWER BACK PAIN-

"Dr. Koenig has always helped both me and my wife with the highest standard of professionalism and a genuine concern for our health. I have recommended Dr. Koenig to many of my friends."

-ARTHRITIS IN BACK AND NECK-

"OTM doctor and staff have been wonderful; very kind, polite, and caring. I have never experienced better treatments for my neck and lower back before coming to OTMC. I t has been a wonderful experience. I have learned a lot about having ankles, fingers, toes, etc…adjusted. What a difference that has made for me. I have gotten needed relief from back and neck pain by going to a Chiropractor, that no doctor could give me. I am a firm believer in chiropractic care. The public needs to get rid of the stigma given wrongly to Chiropractors. They are a necessity!"

-NECK, SHOULDER, AND LOW BACK PAIN-

"The staff at OTMC are very professional, yet care about you on a personal level. They are "all" willing to make your visit a very comfortable and relaxed one. And Above all, I always feel so much better that when I arrived."

-PAIN IN UPPER BACK AND SHOULDER AREA-

"Dr. Koenig and staff have totally resolved my pain and discomfort. This treatment has allowed me to play casual and competitive golf, plus participate in advanced Yoga classes. My seeing Dr. K is now voluntary in an effort to maintain this comfort level. I would highly and strongly recommend such "voluntary Treatment" to all who whose goal is the maintenance of health and well being."

-LOWER BACK AND HIP PAIN-

"After being involved in a serious car accident in mid 1996 I was left with an almost constant ache in my lower back and hip areas. Upon the recommendations of my insurance carrier, I was treated temporarily with physical therapy and the followed up and treated by a chiropractor in the area where I lived. Having previously enjoyed the benefits of chiropractic care while living in another state, I quickly began to realize when the physical therapy was completed and I was seeing only the only the chiropractor in my area, that I was not seeing the improvement in my condition which I had hoped for. After several months and no improvement, I discontinued seeing the chiropractor. Over the next couple of years I continued to experience almost daily discomfort and at times the pain was so severe that I was simply miserable. I sought medical care o various occasions but the exact cause of my problem was never specific and was largely excused as internal scar tissue caused by injuries received in the automobile accident. I was basically told to take pain medication and to learn to tolerate the pain. In 1999 I moved to Hoover and was referred to Dr. Koenig by a coworker. The pleasant manner of the office staff and Dr. Koenig's sincere concern in my general well-being was immediately obvious. He discussed in detail with me the various treatments I had received and my current situation. I knew right away that I had once again found a good chiropractor. After my first few visits I could "feel" the difference. After a few weeks my pain was less intense and not constantly present. After a few months, my pain was under control and only a mild discomfort on occasion. After a year of being under Dr. Koenig's care I feel like I have been given back my life. I am so thankful that I found Dr. Koenig and happily recommend him to others. While many people are aware of the benefits of chiropractic care, I would like to point out that not only is it healthful to be treated by a chiropractor…it is most important to be treated by the "right" chiropractor."

-PINCHED NERVE, AND DEGENERATION OF SPINE-

"I started at OTMC when Dr.Koenig's practice there was just getting started, for "Health Maintenance" due to some old spinal injuries. He resolved that very quickly. When I was re-injured in an auto accident, he quickly diagnosed a pinched nerve that was causing my hand to go numb. Just a few visits got me re-aligned. The entire OTMC staff are so knowledgeable and pleasant to work with, I wouldn't think of going (or referring anyone) anywhere else."

-OSTEOPOROSIS-

"I have osteoporosis and feel that I have been greatly helped with your treatment. You are the most progressive and caring chiropractor I have known and your professional staff is a tribute to you and your practice."

-NECK AND LOWER BACK PAIN-

" Prior to OTMC, I had never been to a chiropractor. I went for severe back pain. After fixing the original problem, I continued to get monthly adjustments. I have always had a stiff neck- getting monthly adjustments has decreased my stiffness Dramatically. I highly recommend Dr. Koenig as a Chiropractor and Chiropractic in general. Being a personal trainer involved in promoting better health and fitness, I would recommend Chiropractic care as part of a regular health and fitness program. Dr. Koenig and his staff provide excellent service and I recommend OTMC HIGHLY!

-PAIN AND STIFFNESS IN NECK AND SHOULDER AND UPPER BACK-

"I came to Dr. Koenig at OTMC, recently, looking for help to relieve some pain and stiffness in my neck, shoulder, and upper back. Dr. Koenig and his staff, through their care and treatment, have restored my neck, shoulder and back to a healthy condition, without the use of drugs. Now I go to OTMC on a regular basis, as a preventive measure. In addition to the excellent treatment, I enjoy the atmosphere that Dr. Koenig and the staff genuinely extend to me. I feel like I am part of a family of friends, and not just a patient there. I highly recommend Dr. Koenig and the OTMC staff for chiropractic care (and this is not a paid advertisement.)"

-NECK, SHOULDER, AND HIP PAIN-

"Dr. Koenig and his staff are superior to other Chiropractic offices I have used in the past. The reasons Dr. Koenig is superior is because he:

1. Spends time with patients to find out exactly what the problem is. The other doctors seem to have a standard routine that they put you through and it may help you and it may not.
2. Dr. Koenig tries different procedures until he hits the problem on the head.
3. A doctor cannot always correct problems if he is not willing to take the time to talk to the patient. Dr. Koenig does spend time with the patient."
