Injured my knee in Feburary then re-injured it a few months ago. I was in a knee brace daily for over a month but still felt a little pain walking with it. I couldn't walk without limping due to extreme pain when I took it off. After 2 visits I was able to walk without the brace but still couldn't do stairs without a little pain. After 2 more visits and sports tape I'm doing stairs fine. I feel my knee getting stronger because I'm able to walk now. I was considering knee injections before seeing Dr Ratio. He also fixed the hip and leg problems I started getting from lack of walking and limping

Dr. Ratio is the best chiropractor that I have been a patient at. Dr. Ratio is very personal, willing to go the extra mile, and appointments with him are worth every penny. Because of all of the recommendations I received about Dr. Ratio, I came all the way from Tennessee just to get some appointments with him.

I could scream at how excited I am to have been introduced to Dr. Ratio. For about two years and two different podiatrist later, I accepted the fact that one day I wouldn't be able to walk because Plantar Fasciitis was taking a toll on my feet. That was until my husband came across Dr. Ratio and asked him does he treat PF. I made an appointment three weeks ago with an attitude of "he can't help me" but boy did he prove me wrong. For the first time in two years after the first treatment, I had no pain in my feet and I could walk without wincing in pain!!! I am so grateful for Dr. Ratio and his continued

My husband and son told me about how amazing Dr. Ratio is, so I recently sought his care. I have been to several chiropractors and they could not adjust my neck or lower back. Dr Ratio used a mechanical adjuster and percussor (instruments which were new for me) which helped immensely and he has the gift to find and adjust the areas on my neck and back to free me from pain and give me better range of motion.

You can't find a more professional and caring chiropractor than Dr. Ratio. I've been seeing him for years and he always make his patients feel like they are part of the family. If I'm in pain he will target that area with results and I can't imagine going to another chiropractor. If you want immediate results from pain, from doctor that cares, make your appointment now, you won't regret it.
