Patient Testimonials

I am more than happy to offer this endorsement for Dr. Migdale's wonderful chiropratic care. Following a car accident where my vehicle was violently rear-ended, I had been suffering from chronic neck irritation and painful dorsal compression for 2 decades. For years I tried yoga practice, physical therapy, therapeutic massages, and chiropractors in the U.S. and Europe. They helped relieve some symptoms for short periods of time, but none went to the core of the problem.  Then I heard of Dr. Migdale and the Graston technique she practices. After only an intensive 6 week treatment using the Graston technique, deep tissue massage and skillful adjustments, Dr. Migdale eliminated all my symptoms, and beyond. Now I am  pain free, am standing straight and enjoy a great feeling of stability in my back -  for the first time ever 20 years. I know the healing is deep, structural, and stable. It's like a dark cloud has finally been lifted!

The therapy Dr. Migdale so generously dispenses has been a turning point in my life -- thanks to her my everyday life, work, and physical activities improved enormously. Dr. Migdale is a very caring doctor. She is an excellent listener and she offers her patients a skillful blend of medical expertise, compassion and attention that is truly remarkable. I admire her knowledge, skills, and care for her patients, and am extremely grateful to her.

Dr. Migdale relieved almost thirty years of pain I've had in my shoulder. Other chiropractors have temporarily relieved the pain. She cured it. She rates really high on my "Personal Heroes" list.

I am a police officer for a local agency on the Monterey Peninsula. I have been suffering from a neck injury I sustained from a serious motor vehicle accident over 10 years ago. For 10 years I have had pain and stiffness and pain in my neck coupled with a chronic headache daily. I could not look up without serious pain and at times would black out. I tried everything from physical therapy to acupuncture to a series of pain medications and nothing worked. I started seeing Dr. Migdale in February 2011. She started adjusting my neck and I started feeling better after only a few sessions. I was able to look up more and had more movement in my neck with minimal complications.
Dr. Migdale's techniques and abilities are bar none the best I have experienced.  Dr. Migdale understands the stresses and pressures of my job and considers all the factors involved when applying her techniques. During the time I have been seeing Dr. Migdale I have had fun at every appointment. She has a way of making a doctor's appointment an enjoyable experience. I recommend anyone who has chronic pain or needs a spinal adjustment to visit Dr. Migdale. You will always be satisfied with her services.

This is just a quick note to thank you for extending your office hours to accommodate my work hours.  As you know, I think your Gaston treatment has been remarkable in treating my shoulder problem.  I truly believe that the Graston technique supported my physical therapy so much so that I could return to playing tennis much sooner than I anticipated!  And speaking of tennis, your treatment of my tennis elbow also alleviated my tennis elbow pains.  In fact, I could play tennis without wearing my arm band after just four treatments.  I'm happy to be under your professional care!

“I have had thirteen back surgeries over the last two decades with many surgical cuts made in the same place. This has resulted in multiple back discomforts and lots of scar tissue. Dr. Migdale has been treating my back with massage and the Graston technique for approximately one year and has done wonders. Each passing month, my scars become less pronounced, my skin irritation decreases and my flexibility improves.”
