Michael Billauer D.C., Marina Del Rey California

When I first came to Dr. Billauer, I was experiencing tremendous lower back pain. This condition was a relapse f a herniated disc problem (L4 L5) which I had been diagnosed and treated for twice before. In the past, I had sought other treatments and therapies which had been effective in terms of their diminishing symptoms over time. However, I was faced with the unfortunate reality that the problems kept coming back.

The pain which I was living with on a daily basis was severe and debilitating. I had recently launched a new business venture with a partner who was a patient of Dr. Billauer's. I could not stand up for more than a couple of minutes at a time without experiencing severe pain. My sleep was also compromised, as I would wake up several times each night and I had difficulty falling back to sleep. I was taking 2-3 Advil twice and sometimes three times a day. My ability to stay focused on any task, either physical or mental was similarly impaired. I found myself falling into a depression, and was both irritable and short tempered at home and at work. In short, I was a mess. When my partner kept suggesting that I see Dr. Billauer I was both reluctant and skeptical at first, but I finally agreed to come in for an evaluation. I decided to make a commitment to myself and my health. I was determined to get better.

After only a couple of months, I am happy to report that I am pain free. I can't tell you how much better I am doing and feeling. I have begun to exercise regularly which I enjoy tremendously, and my productivity at work is way up. I am particularly excited by Dr. Billauer's approach of addressing the root causes and not merely the symptoms.

I am fully committed to Dr. Billauer's sensible and comprehensive approach to attaining one's optimal health. I would also like to personally thank Dr. Billauer's wonderful staff, all of whom are pleasant and extremely helpful and supportive. What a great team.

I can't thank you enough.
