I had back problems for many years due to an accident. When I started work in the mornings I felt dizzy and I was losing my balance somewhat. For 4 years, I was getting intestinal colic every 3 or 4 months.

Let me tell you about my experience:

I visited the centre years ago and thanks to Dr. Angela Olaru’s treatment, the pains and dizzy spells disappeared. Having not kept up the recommended exercises and postures over the years, the problems returned, this time with stomach pains. Since I started having appointments again I have been much better, no headaches or dizziness and more alert.

The most surprising thing was when the doctor helped my baby! I recently gave birth and my daughter didn’t stop crying and I couldn’t rest at all at night. The same day she was treated we saw a result – that night she slept for 8 hours solid and was calmer. She began to be able to be awake without crying, the problem she had was that one of her first vertebrae had been damaged when she was extracted by ventouse during the caesarean section.

Now I feel fantastic!

For a long time I suffered some minor discomfort. As it didn’t seem serious and the pain, although constant, was manageable, I resigned myself to it.

But one day I decided that I was too young to have knee pains – what would happen as I got older?

I started to do the rounds of medical checks: The x-rays didn’t show anything abnormal. One doctor advised me to take anti-inflammatory tablets when the pain was bad. Another doctor told me to do a series of exercises to strengthen the interior ligaments. Actually the problem was that my knee caps were pointing outwards.

After some time I discovered chiropractic and decided to try it. A medical treatment which is so popular in other countries and so unknown here, couldn’t be so bad. And being natural it wouldn’t do me any harm at least.

I followed the Doctor’s advice to the letter and saw noticeable improvements. I haven’t had any knee pain since, but the surprise was the overall improvement in my body. Not only did my knees improve but I was diagnosed with one leg longer than the other, a sacral blockage from adolescence and a pinched nerve from an old car accident. All of this improved with the treatment and the nutritional advice I received from the Doctor.

But the biggest surprise was a cure from the allergies I had suffered for years to pollen, dust mites, dust, animal hair…

Overall, I saw a surprising and complete improvement. Once the intensive treatment was finished, the Dr. recommended a monthly check so as not to lose all the good work and to remain well. And so, that is what I do. Each month I go back to the practice, I still do regular physical exercise and I have changed my eating habits. I have also learned to prioritise – to value other aspects of daily life, like health, family, friendships, so my emotional state is also more balanced along with my physical and general well-being.

Not everything has to be work, stress, money, fun and rest at the weekend and back to the treadmill on Monday…

A slipped disk prompted my first appointment.

It worked well for me.

3 months after starting the treatment I barely have any discomfort, I walk upright and it’s been a long time since I have felt so well! All of this with chiropractic sessions, physiotherapy sessions and the 10 minutes of exercise that I do at home every day.

I started visiting the practice because of my vertigo.

I have always linked it to my job, to stress at work, weight gain, long working hours etc.

About 15 years ago, the vertigo got worse due to emotional stress (my husband had an operation) and many hours at the computer.

Taking homeopathic antioxidants increased the sensation of vertigo, as did chocolate! On the advice of my homeopathic doctor, I ended up seeing the chiropractor. Doctor Angela Olaru explained to me that the cause was the loss in movement and misalignment of some vertebrae. The vertigo finally reduced and little by little disappeared. Sometimes, when I am tense, it reappears and then I know I need a chiropractic appointment.

My first visit to Dr. Angela Olaru was in 2003. The reason was back pain which I had had for a long time and massage only got rid of it momentarily. Despite the fact that the pain was not severe, it bothered me!

To begin with, I had quite a few treatment sessions that worked well to get rid of the back pain. Since then, I have been having periodic sessions to keep and feel better.

I am pleased with the investment I have made in my health. I have therefore prioritised chiropractic care in life over other less important things.

Hello, let me tell you about my experience:

On the 25th November 2008 a car smashed into my motorbike causing me severe pains in my back. For the following month, the pains got stronger and stronger.

An MRI scan revealed the cause of the pain was caused by slipped disks at L3-L4 and L5S1.

From February 2009, I suffered sciatic pain down my leg so severe it made walking difficult.

After seeing various doctors and surgeons I opted for surgery and was booked in for an operation on 22 July. 3 days before the operation date somebody told me about Dr. Olaru and I had an appointment with her. She advised me against the operation and despite having been convinced it was good idea, she dissuaded me and I agreed to try her treatment for a few months. After 10 months of insufferable pain, in November 2009 the pain had practically disappeared and I was able to get back to a normal life, even cycling and skiing.

Today the symptoms of that incident have all but gone and I continue my maintenance sessions in the hope that nothing unpleasant will come back.

Many thanks!

My name is Joan Hernandez and I am 59 years old. I work in IT and I am a vegetarian.

I would like to give a message of hope to all those people who suffer often from back pain and also those who suffer from stomach pain, poor digestion, kidney problems, headaches etc as a consequence of spinal injuries.

I also had a period in my life when I suffered from these pains and luckily I found a way to get rid of them. The injuries we have don’t disappear but chiropractic care can help us achieve a normal quality of life.

Don’t get carried away with operations, medicines, tranquilisers etc. They are no use and can even be very harmful for your health. The truth is they are only a sticking plaster.

Chiropractors treat ill people without medicines, in a non-traumatic, non-aggressive way that leads to quick improvements. It is also important that you make some effort to improve your health through a healthy diet and sensible weight.

I hope my experience is useful and helps you to improve your health. Health, for me, is priceless. For all the advantages of chiropractic care, there is one disadvantage – the doctor has to be very good. I don’t take risks. The only person I allow to treat me is my friend Angela and I thank her for everything she has done for me, my wife, my children and many relatives and friends.

Also, for what she has done to widen the use of chiropractic medicine in Catalonia. I encourage her to continue this very important work, improving people’s quality of life and happiness.

Thank you Angela.
