TBI/Concussion

I was fortunate enough to have seen Dr. Siegfried adjust his son on a television show, and as a fellow chiropractor decided to call him to discuss the technique he was used. It turned out that the technique, Nasal Specific, was exactly what I needed to help with some concussion type symptoms I had been suffering from for quite some time.

While I had seen a number of concussion experts up until this point, I had limited to no change in my symptoms. They varied from sleeplessness, headaches, depression and everything in between.

After the first adjustment, and excellent explanation on what the treatment would entail, I felt a major difference in my symptoms. I still remained a tad skeptical in spite of the noticeable change, and received 2 more adjustments over the next three days.

Fast forward 3 years later and I have been near symptoms free the entire time. I receive a few adjustments each year from Dr. Siegfried and am more impressed each time I meet with him. He is extremely grounded and truly cares about the work he does.

I went to see Dr. Siegfried after experiencing some debilitating concussion/whiplash symptoms that had kept me out of work for some time. I had heard from a friend about bilateral nasal specific treatments that could possibly help me, so I looked it up online and came across Dr. Siegfried. I gave him a call and he explained the treatment to me and was even able to get me in the next day! Wow! All I can say is that Dr. Siegfried and his bilateral nasal specific treatments have helped me get my life back and I thank him for that greatly. I think of Dr. Siegfried as a friend and a knowledgeable health care practitioner who really cares about his patients. I highly recommend Dr. Siegfried.

I started going to Dr. Siegfried for chiropractic work, and constantly complained of headaches. He recommended that I try the nasal specific method to adjust the bones of my skull. After explaining it more in depth, I decided that I wanted to try it. Since starting, the number headaches have cut in less than half, and go away faster. I have had 4 treatments so far and plan to go back for more until my headaches subside completely.

I have been a patient of Dr. Siegfried for 15 years. Before seeing him I tried many chiropractors but none have the deep seated skills in application, especially surrounding his use of the Nasal Specific. His brilliant work is evidenced by my relief that is lasting and beneficial. In all respects he is a true professional of the highest caliber.

My Grandfather, the late Dr. George Dunn, founded this clinic and actually built the house where the clinic is today. I have been going here since I was born, getting treatments from my Grandfather and now Dr. Siegfried. I have been to other chiropractic Dr’s over the years and nothing compares to the treatments you get at this clinic. I leave other clinics not satisfied and craving a real treatment! When I was young and going through the braces stage of my life to get my teeth straight, my brothers and I would go to Dr. Siegfried every week to get our round of nasal specifics! I found that these treatments loosened up everything in my scull, resulting in very fast results with the straightening of my teeth. My orthodontist was extremely impressed with the very quick results of my ortho work. I am now 32 and have my own construction company. My job is very hard on my body and I find myself needing to go to the Chiropractor regularly:) I always go to Dr. Siegfried because I know he is the best and I know I will have great results. I have taken my children to him as well. I would recommend this clinic to anybody who wants to preserve there body for the long haul! This clinic is very holistic in their approach to taking care of your body and will give you all the tools you need to accomplish this. All it takes is one phone call to make an appointment and you will find out for yourself why I keep going back to the best clinic in town!

So finally, it was my turn. I have had numerous concussions from sports mishaps, a large military vehicle crash, bike spills, and school fights I didn’t start. And though I managed to get through all that, my need for nasal specific treatments became very clear as I proceeded through them. I can think clearer; I am much calmer; I can stand back from my problems more emotionally and consider what to do logically. It is like a fog has lifted, and I just feel clear and better. My back and neck, and really my whole body is far more flexible and I don’t get the strains and headaches I used to. It was explained to me that if you can loosen the tension in the skull, it opens up the rest of the body to freer movement and more effective adjustment; and that seems to have very much been the case with me.

On top of all this, I feel that Dunn Chiropractic has been honest with me about medicine and treatment, more so that any other place where I have received care. And I have been to some pretty good places. But here it just seems like everything is unplugged; and yet it is also so advanced. Like putting together great science with great common sense.

Thanks to all at the kind people at Dunn Chiropractic,

And a Special thanks to Dr. George Siegfried who never tires in trying to help advance the health and well-being of his patients.

Dr. Siegfried has been the go to source for my family’s health care since he took over the Dunn clinic. As a kid (age of 5 was my first visit to Dr. Dunn) chiropractic care was a go to. If I didn’t feel right, or had a “gimp” my parents took me to Dr. Dunn to get fixed. When Dr. Siegfried first started to adjust me I knew he was going to be my doc for good. I’m 49yrs old and have lived a hard, but fun life. I grew up on the farm, a Dairy and Hay ranch. I played sports from 5yrs old through collage, been in 6 major auto accidents, ride Quads and dirt bikes to this day. I am healthy and able to enjoy my life to the fullest because of chiropractic care.

I’m writing this testimonial to let people know how Nasal Specific has helped me, my family and friends. I have had at least 40 Nasal Specific (NS) adjustments through my life. I believe it helped keep me from getting concussions. Although every time I’ve ever had a bad head ache, I go get a NS and it’s gone. In a bad car accident, I had broke out the back window of my truck with my head. I had savvier headaches. Got a NS and it was instantly gone.

My son is 13. He plays football, basketball and baseball. He had a NS when he was 1yr old. And a few more times through his life when he has hit his head hard. His most recent was 9/9/14.

I have a daughter that is 6, she is autistic. We have run her through a couple of series of NS adjustments. With a few single NS adjustments in between. She is calmer, sleeps better and just seems more comfortable in her own skin.

My father had really bad hay fever. We had to put up 500 tons of hay each year for the dairy. His eyes would swell, his nose would run, and it would really screw him up. He had a series of NS adjustments done. He wasn’t symptom free, but it was a huge improvement. He would just have a little sniffle. He told me he wouldn’t be able to help with the hay if it weren’t for the NS.

A friend I grew up with was in a bad horse accident that left her in a coma for 12 days at the age of 13. She recovered well but when she got tired her left leg would drag and her left cheek wouldn’t “smile” as high as the other. At the age of 22, I convinced her to give NS a try. After a series of adjustments that all went away.

Growing up I didn’t realize that everyone didn’t use chiropractic care to feel better. It was when I got older that I was in sports and someone would be out of adjustment, go to the DR. The DR. would give the anti-inflammatory and pain pills and tell them to rest. They would end up being out for 2 to 4 weeks and never really be right. If I was out of adjustment I would go get adjusted and be back in a day or two.

As you can see from this testimonial. Chiropractic health care has been a big part of my family’s life and Nasal Specific is part of that. I’m not going to say NS is easy to do. My wife and kids hate it, but the benefit far outweighs the discomfort. And by the way there isn’t a more caring, straight forward and committed to your wellbeing, person than Doc Siegfried.

Thanks for your time,

Booker Nagely

I have been a volunteer firefighter working towards a career in the fire service for about a year now; however, I was in a serious accident while training at work in early July of 2014, and have been dealing with excruciating head and neck pain that has prevented me from working as a result. This was one of many head injuries I have had in my lifetime, but this was by far the worst.

When I started getting treatments with Dr. George Siegfried, I must admit I was skeptical due to the fact that I had never heard of the nasal specific treatments before; however, after just one treatment I noticed a very significant difference in pain and frequency of pain. That was very encouraging to me because I had tried almost everything possible up until that point and this treatment made the most difference by far.

Since then I have had about seven treatments in addition to the first and I have noticed improvements in many areas of my health. I now have much less pain and lower frequency of pain from the head injury; additionally, I have noticed improvements in breathing, hearing, sense of smell and ability to think clearly. The treatment opened up my head in a way that I haven’t felt in a long time.

I am extremely thankful for the chance to have met George because I’m certain I wouldn’t have recovered fully if it weren’t for this treatment.

In 1985 I had a serious accident, which involved my head, neck, back, legs and hips. I had secondary impact to my head, which caused a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) temporary blindness, painful migraine headaches, sensitivity to light and loss of balance and orientation. It took about a year to learn to walk again. I did not have much pain after the first few weeks because of nerve damage. After a year of therapy the doctor said that I was as good as I was likely to be and that I would end up in a wheel chair by the time I reached retirement. In 2000 my wife was in an accident and the doctors did everything they could with the pain with no effect. In desperation she went to Dr. Siegfried. After the first session she was able to get some relief and after six sessions she was able to resume normal activities without pain.

At her persuasion I went to Dr. Siegfried to get frelief from the discomfort in my legs. I had very little sensation from my hips downward but sometimes my muscles would cramp and bunch up and my legs would not work. Although the injury had happened years before Dr. Siegfried agreed to see what he could do. Within six sessions my legs were in better shape and the cramping and bunching was relieved. I took six more session and begin to have sensation in my legs that I had not had in years. I could walk uneven ground and could hike with my wife (an old hobby of mine). Although it may not sound like a benefit I began to experience pain in my legs when I would abuse them and could feel it when I would trip or stub my toe. Now after regular visits for the last year, my legs and back feel better than they have since before the accident. If any one who reads this account has a persistent issue following an auto accident I would highly recommend Dr. Siegfried to give them relief from their injury.

As an adult, my treatments needed for nasal specific, are on as needed basis with a minimum of 2 treatments per year and up to 8 depending on the strain I put my body through. Dr. George Siegfried is an extremely talented and well diverse and experienced nasal specific practitioner. He is smooth, quick, and efficient, the entire process with him takes only eight to ten minutes, however the results are nothing short than life moving. Since receiving nasal specific treatments from Dr. Siegfried I have seen a complete turnaround in my body’s wellbeing. I have Cerebral Palsy and have had nasal specific treatments from a very early age, but even as an adult, from time to time it is necessary to receive treatment in order to maintain the best optimal and functional capabilities as possible. Since my treatments with Dr. Siegfried, I have gained greater momentum in my right hand and can open and close it, which is something I have not been able to do since I was a child, the paralysis and stiffness in my legs is also relived allowing me to exercise them so full mobility can be maintained. The adjustments have released so much tension on my head. It has unlocked the tension on my teeth, thereby eliminating the need for braces. It has allowed for greater hearing by relieving the tension on the ears thereby eliminating the need for hearing aids or other devices, and it has helped with vision perception clarity thereby eliminating the need for glasses of any kind, as well as allowed for stimulation of the brain by allowing proper oxygen and blood flow. Likewise, nasal specific has aided in balance and has enabled my body to function in the in the best possible state that it can as well as decreased chronic pain and migraines to a minimum. I walk on my own without the use of a cane or walker, I drive an automatic truck, am able to hold down a professional job, because the nasal treatments have aided in allowing my brain to grow normally. I have been able to achieve two college bachelor’s degrees and am currently working on my Masters in Business Administration.

Thanks Dr. Siegfried for your passion and patience in continuing the work of Dr. Stober and helping me.

Sam, a 13 year old boy, who at age five was hit in the head with a baseball bat and over time, lost his hearing: “I couldn’t engage in a conversation. Like in class I couldn’t hear my teacher and so we tried tubes in my ears.  We tried everything until we decided to come to Dr. Siegfried and so when we did it helped right away. The treatments are a little uncomfortable but I am definitely getting my hearing back so it’s a blessing.”

I agree with and approve this message. Dr. Siegfried has helped bring us peace by helping our son regain his hearing. It is so hard when you want to help your child but you know you can’t. We felt helpless. We thought he would never be able to hear well. Dr. Siegfried is a kind, understanding, excellent Doctor who is helping our son.

Traumatic Brain Injury has been called one of the signature injuries of our current wars in both Iraq and Afghanistan. Recent developments in armor have made it possible for soldiers to survive much more powerful close-range explosions than in previous wars. Explosions cause a rapid change in atmospheric pressures. Close proximity to them can cause severe internal damage, head trauma, or death even if not harmed by flying shrapnel/debris. Although armor protects soldiers from shrapnel, the consequent explosive overpressure often times causes concussions or a traumatic brain injury.

I am an OIF veteran who, in 2006-2007, was exposed to several close-range high-volume explosions. Although not diagnosed with severe TBI, I was experiencing sporadic pain especially during extreme pressure changes (i.e. flights). The military currently has no true treatment for such symptoms.

While home on post-deployment leave in December 2007, I visited with Dr. Siegfried who has been doing Bilateral Nasal Specific Balloon Therapy for over 25 years. Although initially skeptical of such therapy, I decided to try it. I was able to feel almost immediate results effectively alleviating my problems. This therapy, in my opinion, is a worthwhile treatment for TBI patients to look into and to possibly consider.
