By Dr. Katie Griffin, on February 24th, 2012

Have you been surfing too many big waves in Santa Cruz? Dancing too many Zumba classes? Lots of golfing or tennis in our beautiful Monterey Bay area?

Dr. Katie's work is phenomenal. I had been wearing a small lift in my left shoe for years to correct a sacrum imbalance. In ONE treatment she fixed my sacrum and I don't have to wear the lift!! AMAZING!!! — Denise B., Santa Cruz, http://bit.ly/MD8ftp

Dr. Katie Griffin is so above and beyond what any other Chiropractor in Santa Cruz can do for you because she has the gentle ability to heal in a practical time frame without the need to go back over and over for pain relief. — Carolyn A., Aptos, http://bit.ly/MCg4ST

I've been to numerous MD's, DC's, PT's, Acupuncture, etc. They all seem to help relieve my symptoms for the moment, but the pain and numbness always came back within a day or hours. I've essentially given up on feeling well again until I started to go to Dr. Griffin. My numbness and pain went away. For me, that's a miracle! I can't say enough about Dr. Griffin and the technique she uses. — Keiki C., Santa Cruz, http://bit.ly/NF4TWd

Dr. Katie Griffin is absolutely amazing. I suffer from migraines (used to get 3 or 4 a week) and with the help of Katie I have my life back! I used to see a chiropractor once a week for the past 6 years. After seeing Katie I see her about once every other month or so. She has totally fixed me! — Rory n Christine M., San Francisco

Dr. Katie practices the most amazing form of chiropractic I have ever experienced!! …THE BEST THING OF ALL IS THAT EACH AND EVERY AREA OF MY MUSCLES AND VERTEBRAE THAT WERE BOTHERING ME ARE NOT ANYMORE. If you have any kind of pain--GO SEE DR. KATIE RIGHT AWAY!! You will feel better!!! — Jennifer B., Atascadero, http://bit.ly/LifeHX

Dr. Katie's gentle and relaxing non-force technique is miraculous! I've had pain in my shoulder from an old injury that's been bothersome over the years and keeps me up at night. I had two visits with Dr. Katie and I'm pain-free and I can sleep on my shoulder! Her care and work ethic is exceptional. — Char L., Santa Cruz, http://bit.ly/MrPDA7

I have had lower back pain for years, and Dr. Griffin was the first medical professional to help me and give me specific exercises to do at home to help. After a few visits I am now pain free-thank you Dr. Griffin! — Aleen A., Santa Cruz, http://bit.ly/L3G77d

Go to her ! Hobble,crawl, or limp your aching bones into her office and she will fix you. I didn't believe it at first either. I was messed up and in pain for six years so how could someone "fix" me? Well, she did, and now I am returning to my old self. It feels amazing to be pain free for the first time in a very long time. — Victoria R., http://bit.ly/L3GhLV
