best chiropractor in dallas!

by munkeybrains

dr stark is the best chiropractor i've ever had. and i am a "chiropractor conneisseur" having been to good ones. i'm a big guy and dr stark is very small. small women tend to do good with me, because their hands are smaller, their fingers are more narrow, so they can get right in there where you are out of alignment. dr stark is very very very precise. she does not give you a big back popping or neck popping, she goes after what needs to be worked on. the whole staff is compassionate, and dr stark very obviously loves what she does, and loves helping people get better. she treats me with compassion and dignity and i absolutely trust her and her abilities. if you just right now fell and messed up your back, they may not be able to work you in right this second -- because she is so popular. her clients obviously love her, there is such a positive vibe going on in there that is conducive to good health. a very funny story -- dr stark is determined! once, my neck would not budge -- i am very hard to adjust. she said "i *want* that to move!" to nobody in particular and i started giggling. she got it to move. i slept like a baby. speaking of babies, she sees babies! i didn't know you could take infants to a chiropractor but one of her patients said it's amazing what chiropractic did for her newborn. dr stark is having her baby any day now, and that kid is going to have the best, most kick-a cool mom in the world. seriously, she is *the best* chiropractor i have been to, and i've been to a lot of really really good ones, and a few lousy ones. she is at the northewest corner of beltline and preston, on beltline right behind the bank. she keeps non traditional hours so you can get in after work. that was the initial selling point for me. plus, she's just so incredibly good at what she does, and her attitude is wonderful. ok, consider this a gushing review, but i have nothing but wonderful things to say about her, and from what i gather, everyone else who sees her loves her too. not just likes but LOVES her. she really is the wonderwoman of chiropractic!

• Pros: whipsmart and surgically precise with her narrow fingers
• Cons: none, may be hard to get in *right this second*

Amazing Chiropractor in Dallas off Beltline

by wendyyork1

I have been seeing Dr. Erin for the last two years and last month I got into a car accident. It was actually right after my adjustment in her chiropractic office in Dallas so I was already aligned, which I am sure helped. For the last 4 weeks we have been putting my spine back in place with chiropractic adjustments and coldlaser hterapy for inflammation and muscle spasams. It was so nice to have a regular chiropractor as my doctor because I am 100% better and am back at work without missing a beat. I would recommend Dr Erin Stark, chiropractor in Dallas to everyone. She now has a new DR in house that specializes in ART so perhaps the numbness in my shoulder from an old injury now has an alternative solution as well.

• Pros: Has two specialists in house
• Cons: none

WORTH THE DRIVE

by jlynndozier

After seeing my Internal Medicine Physician, having several hip and chest x-rays, a lung scan, and 5 prescriptions later, I was diagnosed as having a pinched nerve in my back which was causing my painful gait, inability to breath, and miserable nights crying from the pain.

I slowly and painfully, limped into Dr. Stark's office, and 30 minutes later, I SPRINTED out of the office - HAPPIER THAN A FAT KID EATING CAKE!

OMG! Dr. Stark explained the proper spinal alignment, examined me, explained why I was having pain in my hip and why I could not breath. I experienced immediate relief from the hip pain because she adjusted my: right and left hips and my sacrum (tailbone)

For my shortness of breath, she adjusted 3 thoracic vertebrae (upper back) and 1 rib. She explained that the rib was pressing into my right lung causing me to not take in as much air as I needed and causing the shooting, stabbing back pains.

Please understand that I studied human anatomy in college and I know that the ribs attach to the spine and the lungs sit on either side of the spine. So when she POPPED that rib back into alignment so I could breathe and not go into a coughing fit, it made perfect sense.

BOTTOM LINE: Dr Stark is highly qualified and capable. She is professional, personable, geniunely sincere and concerned about my health.

As a result of my deep appreciation for her excellent service and wellness care, I have entrusted Dr. Stark with adjusting my daughter who is a Competitive Cheerleader. My daughter was having knee pain and Dr. Stark informed me that she had inflammation of the medial side of her right knee, confirmed that we should see a knee Surgeon and get an MRI.

I have referred 3 people and all are currently being treated by Dr. Stark!

I am truly grateful for Dr. Stark and Shannon, her assistant for their compassion and humbleness. I really enjoy going to Apex Wellness because, my "friends" are their to support and care for me. Woo Hoo!

• Pros: Service, Knowledge, Wait Time, Friendliness, Parking, Ambience, Quality of Care
• Cons: Nothing - I am completely happy with Apex Wellness
