The Back Doctors

I’ve been going to Dr. Amanda for several weeks now, so I’m confident at this point in saying that chiropractic is really helping me.
I work as an inpatient x-​Ray tech which is a very physically demanding job. I do a lot of patient moving and machine moving, I love things down low and over my head and reach and bend and twist and push and pull all day long at work. I started having some pain in my right shoulder and tingling/​numbness down into my right arm and hand. It was getting to the point it was keeping me up at night. Massage was helping, but the benefits were only lasting a couple of days.
My personal trainer finally suggested that it might actually be caused by my neck. Why didn’t I ever think of that?!
At my initial visit, they took a full set of back X-​rays as well as doing a physical exam. Doctor Amanda worked out a treatment plan based on those results.
I felt relief after my first adjustment. I went 3 times a week for the first few weeks and am now down to twice a week. The adjustments have been working little by little. Now my arm and hand only fall asleep sporadically. She had warned me that it can take time to work because our back muscles can get «programmed» to pull a certain way when our backs are out of alignment and that they’ll resist the adjustments but I can feel improvements every time I go.
The most interesting thing (to me… I’m a nerd…) when Dr. Amanda was doing my physical exam, she pressed on a place in my back, and asked if it was tender. I answered in the affirmative and then she asked if I ever have heartburn. Ummm yeah like 98% of the time, I have heartburn. Apparently that’s a common problem if that area of the back has a subluxation. She thinks that eventually the adjustments could help the heartburn go away.
So what else makes this a 5-​star kind of place? THE PEOPLE! The ladies that work in the office are fantastic. They’re so nice, and always greet me by name. It feels like they care, you know? I’m not just another anonymous patient. Dr. Amanda is very nice and Dr. Tom is, as well though I usually don’t see him. They’re very prompt, I’m in and out of the office within 15 minutes every time. And the office is very clean and neat. And extra points for always playing good music!

Pulled my sciatica in total pain unable to walk. Just showed up. They fit me in and started to work on pain. After 2 sessions on same day I was able to walk, made a HUGE difference. Would recommend to anybody wonderful group of doctors and staff.

Went in to see Dr. Pavich and let me say I have never felt better and he is very nice. Takes care of his clients and is very honest. That is something hard to get these days. I hope anyone looking to get a chiropractor please try the back doctors. I will be back!

I highly recommend Dr. Pavich. He is principled, warm, and very skilled at his craft. I have been adjusted many times by him. If you are in the Reno/​Tahoe area go see Dr. Pavich at the back doctors!

I have been going to Dr. Amanda for 3 ½ years and my experience has been nothing short of amazing. I have gone to chiropractors since I was about 8 and I truly believe in what they can do for an individual. Amanda is an energetic, caring doctor who has helped remove all of my back pains and has alleviated my neck pains. My adjustments are now focused in the neck and upper spine areas and very rarely does she need to adjust my lower back. Even when I get an unexpected kink, Amanda has seen and helped me the same day! The staff are also very friendly and overall, it’s a great place to help you feel healthy and happy.

Went in for some leg pain come to find out I am all out of whack! Nice office great doctors. They have good payment plans that anyone can afford if your insurance does not cover chiropractic work. I am feeling much better.

I have been a patient of Dr. Tom’s since mid 2010. I am very happy with the service provided thus far and highly recommend you give them a try. Both he and his wife are professional, friendly and dedicated to their business.

Every session with Dr. Amanda is worth it. I always leave feeling better and with a positive attitude too!
Dr. Amanda and Dr. Tom are great!

I have been seeing Dr. Amanda for a little over two years. She has been able to decrease my aches and pains associated with the significant amount of travel I incur for my career. In addition, I started running and Crossfit during the last two years and I know that I have managed to stay healthy and injury free thanks to continued visits to her office. The front office staff is always friendly and willing to go the extra mile with regards to working with my less than stellar insurance company. I highly recommend The Back Doctors!

I started seeing Dr. Amanda while I pregnant. She was able to completely get rid of my headaches, swollen ankles and general achiness all caused by the pregnancy. Even after the baby came, I still continue my visits and even have the baby adjusted! (Such a happier baby!) I have also been adjusted by Dr. Tom. They are both compassionate and listen to what you say to give the best service/​treatment possible. I highly recommend The Back Doctors!

Love dr tom and amanda great doctors and great office staff. Easy to get in and see too!

Dr. Tom Rammel was professional and friendly. He treated me over the summer while I was in Reno and I’d definitely continue going if I were still there. Sessions are short but effective. Also, their price of $ 40 was without insurance… good deal.
