Kostas Chiropractic Clinics

I started get lower back pain early 2007. I tried physical therapy, and a few other ways advertised on TV, cost me a lot of money, but didn?t work at all. The pain got worse and worse, I could not hold my baby, could not sleep well, could not drive long distance. I was desperate and almost thought about surgery as one doctor told me that the pain was result of my thin discs. \r This lasted about one year until one day my friend told me about chiropractic. (I never heard about chiropractic before, maybe because I am a foreigner). I was living in Atlanta back then and found Michael Kostas online. After checked my x-ray, he worked on me for about 20 minutes. I felt my pain 50% gone after the first treatment, and I could see the hope of healing right away. After a few months treatments, I felt much better, just a little pain left. I tried a few other chiropractors close to my house, but none of them were as good as Dr. Kostas. After moved to Richmond in 2009, I tried a few chiropractors, more

If you can get past all Dr. Kostas alternative thinking, he's actually very good at what he does. Whether it's my neck or shoulders, after a good adjustment I always leave feeling better. more

The man is extremely nice, but very big into wholistic thinking. No offense, but when I'm hurting, I want some kind of medicine - not "good thinking!" Also, one day I showed up for my appointment when I had a horribly strained neck and couldn't move. Lot of patients were in the parking lot, along with the staff, but no Dr. Kostas. Apparently no one had keys and he forgot to show up that morning. Needless to say we switched shortly after that. more

My physician was Michael Kostas, a man who smiled at my skepticism and joked at how I showed up anyway. I've seen a lot of people for my back problems; rugby players take a beating as you can probably imagine. I've tried sports therapy, deep tissue massages, even acupuncture. While sitting face down on an ironing board-like table, I thought hey! If I can sit here with a dozen needles sticking in my skin, I may as well try a chiropractor. Surprisingly, my neck didn't break and I actually felt pretty good after I left Kostas Chiropractic. more
