Beyond Chiropractic

I never like having to go to a chiropractor, so I tend to wait until the situation in completely intolerable. This is what led me to Beyond Chiropractic. After an extensive Google search, reading a few Unilocal reviews, and finding it close to my office, I went ahead and gave them a try.
From start to finish, the experience was pleasant, quick, and helpful. The office is clean, and the staff is friendly. Upon coming in, I got my x-​ray done and adjusted right away. The results were delivered during the next appointment, and then they lay out the plan to correct your problems. What I liked about this place is that there was never a hard sell on additional products, or even a hard sell on the plan. You choose what you can do, and they take it from there.
I’ve experience adjustment from both doctors here, and both are great. They offer you the choice if you have a preference on style, which is a nice touch. Overall, it took what I consider a dreaded experience and turned it into one that I know I could go back to if needed.
The only real negative that I can come up with here is the limited days they are open (only Monday, Wednesday, Friday), and the limited hours you can have an appointment (they don’t have early pre 9:00 AM appointments for those trying to squeeze it in before work). Otherwise, this place, the staff, and their abilities are top notch.

*Warning: LONG Review*
Where do I begin? I’ve been going to chiropractors and acupuncturists since college time due to various injuries from martial arts, soccer, and all other crazy stuff average Joe does… I can tell who are good at their job and who are not. Dr. Roy is simply AMAZING!
So back in Canada (Year 2012 – 2014)
My right knee has been sore and pain for almost 2 – 3 years. When I went to family physician (Canadian thing. that’s. PCP here in the States) and all he did was prescribing some topical lotions and pills then referring me to a physiotherapist. All physiotherapist did was infrared and ultrasound to ease inflammation and diffuse the effusion build up with stretching and mobility exercises. (also did X-​Ray and ultrasound imaging to see there are effusion around the knee cap) Didn’t get any better. Only saving grace was that it costed me $ 0 out of pocket since, well, it’s Canada. Universal healthcare. Same treatments and prescriptions will likely costs $ 5000+ over 2 years here in US.
Back to US (today)
Found Dr. Roy from United Healthcare Network on my business travel to Florida. He’s in network and at premier level. Went in for adjustments as I haven’t had one since relocated to US end of 2014. Mentioned my knee problem. Dr. Roy, after knowing my activity level, asked me to lay down and did a quick test on my knee. He held the knee and raised the leg in certain position and instructed me to flex the right leg muscle. IT HURTS LIKE TAKING A KICK IN THE GROIN (… yes. I can relate… sadly, it happened to me enough times in life during soccer and sparring contests…). Well, there it is, he has diagnosed it to be a slight misalignment of the knee due to excessive stress from soccer and martial arts. Then he promptly adjusted the knee in less than 10 seconds…
Ladies and gentlemen, that’s $ 40 co-​pay from insurance. One adjustment session, my right knee’s pain and effusion level wend down drastically the following week. One month later, it’s 95% recovered. ONE SESSION! Either Dr. Roy has the healing hand of Jesus or our practitioners in Canada need remedial training… truth is somewhere in between I say… leaning favorably on Dr. Roy’s side…
Episode 2…(I just like to keep on getting hurt…)
Sprained my left ankle pretty bad and went to Urgent Care to get prescription strength painkillers, a cast and double crutches. Swelled up pretty darn good and unsightly. 3 weeks later, I was able to play soccer again. 6 weeks later, I can still play but noticed the swelling never really gone away. Still carrying a goose egg and decided to inquiry about it to Dr. Roy when I sustained adductor strain 2 weeks ago… (no. I’m not that fragile… it’s just aging is creeping up…). First thing Dr. Roy did was confirming that there’s nothing he can do about adductor strain except perhaps using hot laser to penetrate deep tissue to expedite the recovery process to ease bruising and inflammation if I really want it at additional cost. Secondly, Dr. Roy took a look at my unsightly left ankle and explained that one of the many small bones on the left foot may have been stretched out of alignment during the sprain. Another 10 seconds of quick adjustment. 5 days later, the goose egg is pretty much gone and I think by the time next week rolls around, it’ll be completely normal looking again. Tested the strength of it last night at soccer, and it’s holding up better. I’d say 95% good as new.
Morale of episode 2. Dr. Roy is foremost honest about what he can and cannot do for my ailment. Dr. Roy demonstrated his chiropractic proficiency yet again in quick and accurate assessment of the underlying cause of the issue and quick to rectify with IMMEDIATE result.
Epilogue
Not that I want to keep on getting hurt, BUT, if I ever do again, Dr. Roy is my trusted adviser and go-​to chiropractor.
Now the real challenge… I live in Dallas, TX… need to find someone as good back in Texas…

Visited Beyond Chiropractic for the first time this past Friday and had my first adjustment today. Must say I was relieved in more ways than one. First, both Dr. Danielle and Dr. Roy were so personable and easy to. In addition, they were both very knowledgeable, explaining the X-​rays and offering some insight as to he likely cause of my pain. Better yet, they had a plan for helping me! Finally, I was relieved by their professionalism and the confidence with which Dr. Roy performed the adjustments — he really put me at ease so I was able to relax enough for him TO do the adjustments :0). I feel better already and am so grateful!

My husband and I are very impressed with Dr. Roy and Dr. Danielle. We have been to Chiropractors in the past in Canada, however, we have never had such thorough examinations, x-​rays and treatments then what Dr. Roy has given us. We love the nice, kind, friendly atmosphere from when you arrive to when you leave. We would recommend them to anyone to try… your Chiropractor search will be over.

Great to have quality care, in such a convenient location directly across from Altamonte Mall. My back hasn’t felt this good in a long time! On-​site x-​ray, kind and courteous staff, great care and no hard sell. I send all of my family and friends here.
