Success Stories
Chiropractic has given hope to many people. Here are just a few of the success stories that have taken place with Dr. Robert Keys.
Sciatica
My leg pain was unbearable when I first met Dr. Keys. He informed me that I was suffering from Sciatica. The pain went all the way down my leg into my ankle, and I could barely walk or work. After a few weeks the pain only went to just above my knee and the pain was significantly less daily. After about 12 weeks, the pain was gone and only flared up here and there after my 7 hour work shift. I am so happy to have my life back! Now I can play with my grandbabies and do what I want.

Shoulder Impingement
I am a construction worker and have had shoulder problems for years. The pain kept me from doing a lot of overhead work and holding things while they are being joisted and attached. I had to take a lot of breaks just to be able to get the job finished each day. After just a few visits with Dr. Keys, I am no longer needing to take breaks at work. I can do almost anything overhead and have no more clicking and popping. Chiropractic has really given me back my ability to do my job, which in turn supports my family.

Headaches/Migraines
I originally came to Dr. Keys because I was having headaches 3-5x/week and an occasional migraine that would make me lie down in a dark room for hours. After a few weeks of care, my headaches started to decrease in the number of times they happened and in how much they hurt. After 4 months of continuous care, I now only get a random headache once every few months, which is normally from not drinking enough water. I have not had 1 single Migraine since we started treatment. I wish everyone dealing with headaches could experience this amount of relief.

Neck Pain
I was in a car accident fall 2023 where I was hit from behind. They were driving about 25 mph and I didn’t think anything of it at the time, but about 3 months later I started to have some neck pain and random headaches. I came to see Dr. Keys and after a few adjustments the headaches went away completely. The neck pain started to hurt less after a few weeks and slowly got better and better over the next month. After that, we started to see a lot of improvement in my stretching and ability to do yoga poses I previously was unable to do. I am now back to being a weekend warrior and doing the things I want to do when I want to do them.

Low Back Pain
I have had low back pain for years. I am a Tire Factory worker and work long hours. I originally came in because that low back pain started to go down my leg to my knee. This pain would keep me up at night and keep me from lifting things I needed to at work. After a few visits I started to notice my pain wasn’t going down as far on my leg. After a few weeks I was no longer having leg pain while working. It took a few months, but I started to not have any low back pain during the day or while I slept. It has been years since I have had no pain or tightness.

Athletic Performance
When I was 19 years old, I was playing soccer at UNCW. I had to wear orthopedic braces on both ankles just to be able to play and limit my ankle rolling. I played against a chiropractor in Sunday league and he asked me why I had them at 19. I was told by my medical doctors that what was needed for the rest of my career based on the trauma I had in the area. I was taught by my chiropractor that my body could heal again if it were given the correct circumstances. I trusted him and started a treatment plan. He found a herniated disc in my c6 area and neurological dysfunction in my hips, knees, and ankles. After about 4 months of continuous care, I was able to play without my braces and gained the speed back I had lost from several traumatic hip and leg injuries. Soccer has been my passion for the last 20 years and chiropractic has given me the ability to play even at 35 with the young players.

Canal Stenosis
I am 83 years old and was diagnosed with canal stenosis around 12 years ago. I had been to other physical therapists and medical doctors, but they were not able to help with the numbness in my feet. I used to trip over my feet almost every day and could not lift anything over 2-3 pounds. Dr. Keys worked with me 2 to 3 times a week for 2 months. That’s when I stopped tripping on a daily basis and slowly was able to lift things again. Now it has been 6 months since I first saw Dr. Keys, I am able to lift over 25 pounds with no issue and no longer have tingling and numbness in my feet. Other doctors said it could not get better, but I am glad it tried chiropractic.
