Testimonials
I came to Dr. Gillman for help with a sore back and stiff hips from my post-40 return to the soccer field. His treatments not only solved the problem but brought a host of unexpected benefits - improved co-ordination and balance, better posture and flexibility and more restful sleep than I'd had in years. I think it's fair to say he revolutionized my understanding of musculoskeletal problems and overall physical health. I consider him a skilled and dedicated healer and fellow health professional.

I got more relief from one treatment from Dr. Gillman using Graston Technique than ten treatments of P.T. at a hospital.

Dr. Scott Gillman is an excellent chiropractor. I have referred many patients to Dr. Gillman for various conditions, such as back pain, neck pain, and sports injuries. His treatments are very effective in relieving pain and correcting neuro-muscular imbalances so that patients can remain healthy and physically active. Dr. Gillman is also interested in helping the medical profession learn more about the benefits of chiropractic treatment. He gave a very informative talk to my medical group about examination of neuromusculoskeletal conditions and the use of chiropractic for treatment. I am grateful to Dr. Gillman for his excellent work.

In my 20+ years involved in high risk sports such as boxing, wrestling, rugby, full contact fighting, and more recently strongman implement training. I have suffered many injuries, some minor and some major. Recovery and rehab is always a pain as I am very impatient and want to get back to training for what ever sport I am currently involved in. Since I changed chiropractors to Dr Gillman, my recovery and rehab time after injuries has been reduced dramatically. I have referred many family members, clients and friends to him and we all have been extremely satisfied with the results.

I have played rugby for over 25 years and coached the game for over 5 years… Dr. Gillman received me, along with my skeptical outlook, in a professional manner, and he took the time to understand the nature of my sport, and explain the issues relating to my specific problems within this context. He could make connections to the movements and actions that I needed to make as an athlete, and he was supportive of my desire to get back into action as soon as possible. Dr. Gillman also took the time to explain the general nature and principles involved in chiropractic care…. thanks to Dr. Gillman, I'm back on my rugby team doing what I love to do best. Playing rugby. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I am an avid tennis player. In the last year I've had intense pain in the groin area after playing. In spite of the good amount of stretching after the game, which I have been doing for a long time, the problem persisted. It usually lasted for 4-5 hours, and hurt so much that even stepping up and down the stairs was quite painful. I consulted with Dr. Gillman about the problem, and we used the Graston Technique to treat the soft tissue in this difficult-to-reach area. The problem went away like a magic after four sessions of Graston Technique. The pain noticeably diminished right after the first session, and I felt 75% of the pain went away after the third session. After the fourth session, I had no pain at all! I no longer take Motrin after the game. I am really glad that the Graston was right for me, and I am grateful that Dr. Gillman encouraged me to try it out.

As I finish another golf season as a senior player who managed to maintain my 2 handicap playing once a week, I am feeling the need to acknowledge your help toward this level of performance…it has been great that the chronic shoulder, foot, and elbow issues of the last few years have resolved. No doubt that your sage conditioning regimens, which I continue to do religiously, have really helped me to finally finish a golf season with no down time for injury…a very important issue for me. If I have internalized one thing, it is that proper preventive maintenance and follow through with professional health care is my ONLY true edge on performance in the twilight of my athletic career.

I suffered from periodic neck spasms that left me unable to turn my head without excruciating pain. These painful episodes occurred approximately once a month, and lasted for 2-4 days. I lived in fear of recurrence and nothing but time seemed to help alleviate the pain when it did occur. I began to see Dr. Gillman in 1991 and have only had recurrence of the neck pain two times in the past 13 years. In both instances I sought treatment from Dr. Gillman and the neck spasm resolved almost immediately. My experience with chiropractic care has left me a true believer in the value of this methodology and the exceptional skill of Dr. Gillman. I cannot speak highly enough of the care I have received.

In 1997 I suffered with overwhelming back pain and sciatica in my leg. I was on megadoses of drugs and physical therapy wasn’t helping. The pain was getting worse and I was planning for surgery. Dr. Gillman examined me and adjusted my spine. I immediately felt 50% better. I never had the surgery.

During high school and college I wrestled, played tennis and soccer. I sustained injuries to my knees and back that have lingered. I have been seeing Dr. Gillman, primarily for my back, but also for my right-knee which has undergone surgery twice to correct torn cartilage. Dr. Gillman's treatment really helps. I still play tennis, golf and study martial arts and have honestly gotten more relief from being adjusted than pain killers. Dr. Gillman has made it possible for me to continue playing sports and that has improved my quality of life. I've tried other chiropractors, but they were ineffective.

Dr. Gillman has made a huge difference in my life. I had chronic SI Joint issues and pain. I was very impressed with his knowledge and his effective treatments which alleviated my back pain and allowed me to continue my active life style. His passionate explanations and sincere concern have developed a level of trust and comfort beyond my expectations.

Dr. Gillman has really helped me. For a long time my right ankle and foot were "stuck" and this was becoming a big problem for me, as I ride and train event horses. I was noticing that I was not able to flex my right ankle enough to keep my heel down in the stirrup and as a result, was having difficulty properly utilizing my lower leg, upper thigh, hip angle and seat bone. This was a big problem I was starting to transfer to my horses through my riding issues and was it becoming apparent in their own way of motion, losing their symmetry. I noticed an immediate difference in my riding after just one adjustment by Dr. Gillman and my horses are performing beautifully again.
Thank you Dr. Gillman!

Six years ago I thought I was going to have a knee surgery. As a last resort, I tried Dr. Gillman and haven't had that knee problem since. He said, 'come in for one visit...you’ve got nothing to lose.' I wondered what a chiropractor could possibly do for a knee, but it worked! 'Been going ever since. I'm 54 and still playing serious pick-up basketball at Longfellow three times a week.

I was referred to Dr. Gillman by another Chiropractor when I was in my third trimester of pregnancy and in extreme back pain. Dr. Gillman effectively evaluated my condition. His treatment provided immediate relief and he also taught me massage techniques that I could do at home to relieve the pain. I appreciated his holistic approach and his use of varied techniques for pain relief.

I came to Dr. Gillman as a last resort for abdominal and back pain that had been going on for several years and remained without a diagnosis by the medical community. I was scheduled for a colonoscopy. As a runner, Dr. Gillman's knowledge about sports injuries appealed to me. He also effectively treated my wife for pregnancy related back pain, so I decided to seek out his advice. Dr. Gillman did an extensive evaluation and diagnosed my condition as musculoskeletal rather than the tumor or cancer that PCP's were talking about. He provided immediate relief and gives me knowledge and exercises so as to self-treat my condition."

I’ve had back pain off and on since the birth of twins many years ago. I experienced back spasms so painful I nearly passed out. It was very frightening and I knew I needed treatment. I was seeing an acupuncturist who referred me to Dr. Scott Gillman. He said Scott was the only chiropractor he would ever let work on his back. That was a good enough recommendation for me. I was very apprehensive the first visit. But Dr. Gillman put me at ease immediately. I followed his advice and had regular treatments. I could actually approach physical activity without the fear that I would hurt it again. I follow his advice and continued to see him periodically.
The difference in my activity level is amazing. My husband and I are competitive ballroom dancers, and we most recently took up golf. I am no longer fearful about physical activities because I know where I can get the help I need.
