 Every time I go in I am remembered and greeted warmly by the receptionists. I recieved care from at least three different professionals, including a chiropractor, massage therapist, and physical therapist. I spent time hooked up to one of their fancy machines. I was never in there for less than 1.5 hours! I love how they integrate treatment with preventative elements like nutrition and posture. They also really worked with me to find a way to fit my schedule and insurance difficulties. And it's far from your normal sterile doctor's office environment with beautiful art on display and the staff are casual and joke with each other. I would highly recommend them for people with any sort of health problem and I hope the rest of the healthcare industry follows their example." - Joe Carr - July 2009
"Tuesday's session(s) were remarkable. I dropped Norm off then went shopping at Goodwill.
Remarkable things to add to yr Remarkable Card:
#1 I never go shopping, it's been years since I have even been to Goodwill.
#2 I spent 4 hours there.
#3 I was hot, overheated, & sweating the whole time as there was no A/C on at the store. Heat makes my legs collapse. I [usually] can not stand or walk.
#4 My legs did not give out on me, rt. foot pain was negligible.
#5 My energy is greatly improved.
Perhaps the NIS takes longer to have a noticeable effect. I did use a electro-stimulator brain balancing device (from Reid Minot) for 1 hour last Friday. Maybe it helped NIS to kick in?
I loved the Graston work. I have no red lines/skid marks, on my back, and only a light polka-dotted/bruise on end of a rib on rt side. It was not painful at all, it felt good in fact.
I also found Dr. Lara's Activator highly effective. I had those kind of treatments in Houston on a regular basis, long term. I wasn't dealing with MS then, but I didn't find the Tx's all that helpful and I never held the adjustment for very long. Dr. Lara got my T-2 & T-4 in which have been bothering me for a long time. I am still pain-free in those locations. The technique also worked well for me as I did not have to put any physical effort into turning this way or that for an adjustment.
WOW! Something actually worked!
I just wanted to say "Thank you" for having both the knowledge and courage to offer so many diverse treatment options. You have a genuine interest in the well-being of your patients and that is part of what is unique about your practice. You have the ability to offer a wide variety of treatment options in a professional yet personal & friendly manner.
Plus, the Artwork creates a climate that is fun, engaging & challenging. It often evokes unexpected responses from patients that offers an opportunity to interact with others. The staff at the clinic also share a permeating atmosphere of warmth and empathy that overall reflects your values. It makes people want to talk. It makes people want to help others. It makes people want to come back. It's a secret gem hidden in South Austin.
Thank you for being you!" Cat - 2009
"Dr. Schade is the 3rd doctor seen for my condition. The 1st referred me to the 2nd, who immediately started talking surgery. After my 1st visit with Dr. Schade, I was feeling 50% better." - Kim Kendrick - 2007
"After telling them about my chronic stomach problems, headaches, and lack of energy, Dr. Schade recommended I take the Immuno 1 Bloodprint� test to see if I was sensitive to any specific foods. My list was long and I decided to start the journey to feeling better by moving forward with the program. I had to give up a lot of my favorite foods for a while (some forever, and some continuing only in moderation), but after a few weeks I felt a huge difference. Not only did my stomach problems go away completely, my headaches decreased by about 90%. I have so much energy I don't know what to do with it! I would recommend this test to anyone, whether they are having health problems or not. It seems that just about anyone would benefit by feeling even better than they already do." - Courtney Ryan Buie - 2007
