Dr. Horikawa Gave Me My Life Back – A True Specialist in Spine Care!!
I came to Dr. Horikawa with severe, radiating lower back pain that made it difficult to walk, sit, or stand for more than 15 minutes. I had to sleep with a pillow under my knees just to relieve the pressure on my lower back and avoid unbearable pain. For years, my muscles and tendons were constantly tight due to misaligned joints, and nothing I tried-stretching, physical therapy, massage, heat/cold therapy-gave me lasting relief. I had seen many chiropractors before, with only limited success.
When I asked how many sessions l’d need, he thoughtfully said, “Maybe six to eight, 2-3 times a week in the beginning, if possible.” I was skeptical-but I had nothing to lose.
The first two sessions felt uneventful. But to my surprise, by the third session, I suddenly felt significantly better. By the sixth, I was 85% healed. And now, l’d say I’m 95% cured-I may still occasionally feel soreness and a bit of aches, but never sharp pain, and any discomfort goes away on its own after a good night’s sleep.
I honestly couldn’t believe it.
Dr. Horikawa’s deep understanding of the neck, spine, lower back, and hip made all the difference. His adjustments are precise, effective, and grounded in true expertise.
He is such a good human, a kind heart-offering reduced rates to students and those in financial hardship, even though his level of skill is worth much more. You can tell he truly cares about his patients. and he never asks for a good review.
Of course, no single doctor can specialize in everything. While I found his care most effective for structural and major joint-related issues, and perhaps less focused on soft tissue-specific conditions, this is my honest opinion and that’s exactly what makes him so trustworthy—he knows his area of strength and works within it exceptionally well.
I will confidently recommend Dr. Horikawa to any friend struggling with spine or joint pain. He restored my ability to move and live normally, and I’m deeply grateful.
