Richard Family Chiropractic

Dr. Richard is THE BEST! He's very friendly and thorough and always listens. He always has good advice and gives you the perfect adjustments you never knew you needed. Since going to him on the regular, neck pain is gone and energy and sleep are so much better. The knowledge he has about the spine and all the nerves and hormones that are affected by everything is mind blowing! Staff are also very sweet and friendly too! Can't recommend this place enough!

Dr. Richard is my chiropractor since at least 2010. I cannot say enough good things about my experience and results over the years. When my lower back would get out of whack Dr. Richard helped me with faster recovery every time. Knowledgeable, Results oriented. I highly recommend you visit if you have pain. And he has a great personality.

I was in pain, I couldn't walk. I made an appointment for 7 days out, they called the next day with an opening, I went in. I can walk again. Thorough evaluation with X-rays, and went right to the solution. I came back the next day for one more adjustment. I'm back to normal (my usual crazy self). Great staff, great location, great Dr!

Great experience! Very thorough! My car accident put my spine out of wack. Dr Richard took xrays and explained where the places in my spine needed to be tweeked. First visit put me at a good starting point of healing. I look forward, yes look forward to being set straight the way God designed my back to be. Thank you, Dr Richard!

D. Richard is the best around. He trained with the best, Dr. Seghi, who I saw for 30 years and now I've seen Dr. Richard for around 13 years and he's always spot on! I highly recommend him! This was my last years post. So now another year later, I only need to get an adjustment when I do something I probably need to ask help doing. Like unloading huge compost bakes or the like. I'm good because Dr. Richard fixes my back and I stand and walk straighter! Hooray for old age! Any age really! Thanks.

I was always so skeptical of Chiropractors but, this is different! All 5 of my family members see Dr. Richard at Gonstead Chiropractic for various reasons (fractured back in college, scoliosis, neck pain, etc.) and we ALL have benefitted. Thanks to Dr. Richard we have all learned to listen to our bodies and we know when we need to make an office visit! Very thankful to have Dr. Richard - he has an individual approach for each of us which is very different than most chiropractors! The office staff is an added bonus!

I had never been a believer in Chiropractic, I just could not fathom how they could help me. I had several issues and had been seen for them by my doctor and specialists and was just given medications, bandaids is what I call it, never addressing the cause of these issues. At the urging of my daughters to see one, I was very hesitant but finally thought what if, just what if, this is the only person who can help me, without medicating me.

I was beyond belief that Dr. Richard was the one who fully explained what was going on with my body without prescribing pain medicine. The adjustments started and continued, until I finally realized I had gained my life back. Years later I started with a pinched nerve on my neck, lower back and itching up and down my spine. For the itching I went to see my dermatologist and after running many test, the conclusion was that they could not tell me why I was itching, I was given a strong antihistamine for it. Next, I was sent to my neurologist and they recommended to get an MRI.

The MRI diagnosis was that I had degenerative disc changes, slight reversal of normal cervical lordosis, mild to moderate loss of disc height and other issues, but, they could not explain the itching issue. I was told it was normal for someone my age (69) to have degenerative issues and was not given choices on how to treat these conditions without medications for pain and was basically told it was something I just had to live with.

So I was convinced that would be my way of life from hereon out BUT then I decided to go back to Dr. Richard and see what his opinion was, he was gracious enough to review my MRI report and gave me in depth what it all meant. The pain and the itching was basically controlling my life. Treatments started right away and soon I could feel a huge difference.

The itching was uncontrollable which led to medicating myself to the point where I was sleeping most of the day. If self medicating is your way of living, sorry to say, that is not living the life you deserve, that is just surviving. He started working on the itching issue as well and I was astonished how the itching starting fading away. I feel so much better and the itching and back pain no longer rules my life.

I am so thankful that I gave Dr. Richard a chance to prove that Chiropractic does work. For any one who is a non believer like I was at the beginning, please give him a try and see how Dr. Richard can give you your life back. I will forever be grateful to Dr. Richard. I am now a big fan of Chiropractors. When friends and family complain of any medical issues, I always recommend they see a Dr. Richard.

I have known Dr. Richard for over 10 years through family that has been seeing him. I recently started going myself about 2 years ago and If I could leave 10 stars I would. With over 19 years of experience there isn't an issue in his practice he wouldn't be able to help you with. Thank you once again Dr.!

I was anxious because I had never before been to a chiropractor. All the staff were friendly, kind, and understanding. Dr. Richard took the time to explain and show me what was happening with my spine. I came home feeling better and hopeful that I will continue to heal and improve. I'm so glad I found this place!

I have been using Doctor Al since 2003 for various back, neck, and shoulder injuries that I have had. His expertise is unmatched and his level of care is remarkable. I tell every person that I know about Richard Family Chiropractic because they are quite simply the best in the business. I am so grateful to have Doctor Al and his staff in my life and they have given me peace of mind about my health for the last two decades and there is no substitute for that. Thank you for all you do! JB

I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Richard and his staff! His staff is incredibly friendly and inviting. I've even had conversations with them in passing when they aren't super busy and they give off the vibe that they enjoy talking to all the patients which definitely helps you to feel welcomed and at ease before you get your adjustment.

As far as Dr. Richard goes, even when he is very busy he takes the time to listen to his patients and also have friendly conversation with you. It's very easy to tell that he views each of his patients as individual people not patient numbers. His technique is also excellent! I've been going to him for several years now and he's always looking to better serve his patients.

Even though I personally usually have the same issues that crop up repeatedly, over the span of several months at a time, he has come up with new techniques to help me have a better adjustment. I really appreciate that because it shows that he isn't just taking a copy and paste approach but he's constantly trying to think of how to get each of his patients the best adjustment possible. I highly recommend going to see him if you have any chiropractic need!

I have been going to see Dr. Al since 2010. I had a popping noise in my neck when I turned it from side to side. It resulted in many nights with what thought were migraines. Also I experienced really bad leg cramps. After 3 months, I was back in great shape. Since then, Dr. Al has been my "go to" for the occasional adjustment when I feel like something is "off." Unlike other chiropractors, Dr. Al is the real deal.

He really cares about his patients and is 100% in this profession to make people better. There is no one else that I've met like him. He knows his stuff and wouldn't trust anyone else. Do yourself a favor, stop researching the reviews around other chiropractors and just visit Dr. Al. He's the best-period.

This is my first experience with a chiropractor and a great one. Thorough diagnosis followed by a clear therapy plan that has been very effective. Really lovely front desk staff who have been very understanding and kind. Highly recommended!

Nice environment. Friendly staff, welcoming. Dr. Richard makes you feel like you are his only patient when he's with you. He really tries to get to the root of your problem and fix it and also provides tips along the way if things aren't working out. He talks everything out with you so you know what's going on completely. He also makes suggestions to see your primary care physician as needed.

He wants you to be comfortable and in as little pain as possible until he can make you better. Also, laser treatment is the way to go for inflammation and pain! The laser tech, who's name I can't remember, {I'm sorry} because I'm so succumbed by the relief is amazing. The whole staff is phenomenal. Thank you!

Dr. Richard is awesome! I've been a fan of chiropractic care for years, and feel that a little preventative maintenance goes a long way. After lifting too many heavy things, I had a lower back issue that I couldn't just stretch or foam roll my way out of. Dr. Richard took X-rays of my whole spine and neck so that he could know exactly what my issues were and so that's where my treatment started.

I LOVE this approach, as I am definitely a "test, don't guess" kinda girl. I already feel better after just one adjustment. I'm super happy to have Dr. Richard on my "team" of wellness professionals (and in case I do something stupid again)!

Just had my first appointment and can already feel a difference in my pain level. Looking forward to continuing treatment and helping my body to heal naturally. Office staff and Dr. Richard are amazing. Very thorough and takes the time to explain everything to help you understand what's going on within your body.
