Dr. Rugg was very patient in trying to learn what was causing my headaches. Headaches that makes me sick to my stomach. After only one session I felt instant relief. Highly recommend Dr. Rugg. I will definitely be returning!

Report
Due to broken ankle/surgery, I have been in a recovery since January of this year. Even with several months of physical therapy, the recovery was very slow and conitnue to deal with limping, nerve pain, etc. I remembered seeing Dr. Lawrence Rugg from years back for my back issue. Due to such slow recovery and difficulty walking, I decided to seek help from Dr. Rugg again. He immediately diagnosed my condition and able to customize a treatment plan. After only few sessions with Dr. Rugg, my condition vastly improved; I was able to walk without a limp or much pain, as well as the back pain subsided
