Jacobs Nancy, DC

I have been seeing Dr. Jacobs since May of 2011, subsequently after being injured in a car accident. Since then Dr. Jacobs has done a fantastic job of going above, and beyond your average chiropractor to improve my body, and have less pain.
Nancy takes the time and care to sit down, and explain how you can actually improve your life, and have less or no pain. Nancy teaches and demonstrates methods such as: how to improve posture, ergonomic devices, nutrition, exercises/​stretching, and a lot more.
I was rear ended by a 24 foot truck, sustaining serious whiplash. Afterward, my entire body was inflamed, I had trouble standing and walking for too long. I had constant migraines, my thoracic (middle back) was in constant pain, and I could barely turn my neck in any direction. My MRIs revealed that I had several herniated discs throughout my cervical (neck), one herniated disc in my lumbar (lower back). And an EMG test revealed I had a pinched nerve in my thoracic area, and in the right side of my neck.
The prescriptions prescribed by my Pain Doctors only disguised the pain, and had terrible side effects. Physical Therapy was not helping much, and there were so many people at their office, there was attention, and all they cared about was billing my insurance. I saw several spine specialists, and all they wanted to do was give me an injection/​epidural of steroids.
I found Park Ave Chiropractic on the internet when seeking a more holistic natural way to helping my pain. Within the first visit Dr. Jacobs did just so, to help guide me in a more holistic route to be pain free.
Nancy’s neck adjustments quickly helped alleviate my migraines, and improve my neck pain. Nancy recommended the herbal supplement «Inflammatone,» a natural anti-​inflammatory supplement to take; instead of advil or prescription anti-​inflammatories which can cause stomach/​liver and other serious problems when taken too much. The inflammatone not only reduced my inflammation but improved my digestion, which is associated with back pain.
In time I found that her techniques used on my thoracic was the only thing that would help the pain. And now, I barely ever have pain in that area. My neck pain has improved a remarkably.
One tool Nancy utilizes that I’ve become a huge fan of, after it saved me from getting surgery is Cold Laser. Unrelated to my car accident, I had an infection on the outer area of my naval (belly button), my MD put me on Levaquin, which I soon found out… I was allergic to. After ridding the Levaquin out of my system, my MD put me on another anti-​biotic, and said that if it didn’t work I would have to have a surgeon remove the infection… that anti-​biotic didn’t work! After sharing this with Nancy, she suggested we try Cold laser therapy on the infection… within a month the infection was gone. No surgery for me!
Lastly, Nancy is an expert nutritionist. With her nutritional and excersizing advice, and guidance, I have lost 25 pounds (and counting).

Dr. Jacobs is an excellent chiropractor. I have been to many over the years in several states. I feel very lucky to have found her. She is the first chiropractor I have ever seen who uses non force methods to adjust my spine. She is affordable and takes my crappy insurance! She has some excellent advice about nutrition and supplements but doesn’t push it on you. She is caring and fun, always in a good mood. Rosemary, her office manager is great too. She can work well with your schedule as the other review mentioned. These ladies are terrific and I highly recommend Dr. Jacobs to anyone looking for relief from pain.

Doctor Jacobs and her staff are amazing. She truly cares about her patients and believes in power of the mind and the ability to heal thyself.
Unlike a lot of chiropractors, Dr Jacobs doesn’t force your spine into place, but instead uses a more gentle technique that people who are Chiro-​adverse will find comforting.
She also provides holistic nutritional support, and can test you for allergies, toxins, and vitamin deficiencies. Her office offers a large range of vitamin and nutritional support programs (at the same price or less than retail prices).
Her support and care have made getting healthy, quitting smoking, and eating right less like hell and more like heaven.
Finally, she practices what she preaches and it shows. She radiates
health and the joy of positive living.
She’s a true gem in the city.
Ps when making your appointment let Rosemary (her super sweet office manager) know if your schedule is tight, so they can accommodate you.
