Santa Clarita Chiropractor

After physical therapy wasn’t helping, I started feeling like a victim in my own body.

The pain had taken over my life. Everyday activities became scary, and the anxiety that came with the pain started controlling my life too.

After countless hours of searching online, everything I found seemed to point toward occipital neuralgia. When I brought it up to my neurologist, it was completely dismissed. I left feeling like people thought I was imagining what I was experiencing.

Ironically, Instagram kept showing me Dr. Thomas Polucki talking about symptoms that sounded exactly like mine. His office was over an hour away, but at that point I felt like I had nothing left to lose. Deep down, I knew this was a physical problem, and I believed there had to be an answer somewhere.

I was actually afraid to make the drive because checking my blind spot would trigger my pain, so my boyfriend drove me to my first appointment.

Even after my very first upper cervical adjustment, I felt something I hadn’t felt in a long time—hope.

It honestly felt like someone had pressed a reset button. Movements that would normally trigger pain and anxiety suddenly felt calm instead. That first visit gave me confidence that my body wasn’t broken and that recovery might actually be possible.

If you’ve been told everything looks normal, or you’ve started wondering if you’re just going to have to live this way, don’t give up. I’m so grateful I made the trip.

My mom fell and hurt her arm and shoulder.
I knew that chiropractic might be able to help.

I liked the reviews that I saw for Dr. Polucki.

I felt relief because I came with her on the first visit to translate and I knew that she was gonna get the help she needed.

Her pain was so bad that she could barely lift her arm or do anything around the house.

But she got some relief immediately and it only got better from there.

In a handful of visits. She feels like she’s totally better.

I’m moving better and waking up pain-free for the first time since I can’t remember.

A recent car accident made me experience PTSD for the first time in my life.

The pain and anxiety associated with that kind of accident is hard to shake.

There are a lot of reviews out there,

But the ease of working with Dr. Polucki and the outstanding results that I got made me feel like I wanted to share my experience.

Both Dr. Polucki and his staff were accommodating to my schedule and my concerns about Insurance and payments.

The last thing I wanted to deal with was fighting an insurance company to get better.

I hope this helps anyone who isn’t quite sure about going to a chiropractor for any reason.

My Personal Trainer of many years recommended I see Dr. Polucki for hip pain that wouldn’t go away no matter what.

I felt that Dr. Polucki was honest and accommodating with his plan for getting my hip better.

Within a few weeks, I’m walking without a cane And very little pain.

I’m finally able to get back into shape and feel like I have my youth back.

In these uncertain times cost-effective healthcare is a priority for me and I hope this helps anyone who is considering a much more expensive option.

All I can say is it worked for me better than I could’ve ever hoped for.

I never thought my vertigo would ever go away. It’s been horrible for a year..

I tried the patches the medication and nothing could touch it .

The ear doctor was the one who told me that it was coming from my neck

My daughter was struggling with neck pain just before Covid and Dr. Polucki helped her and the neck pain never came back .

I’ve been going to chiropractors for 40 years and I would usually get a couple days of relief .

But working with Dr. Polucki I haven’t had vertigo in two months since I started.

Even my therapist noticed how much better my neck feels.

It feels like I have my freedom back.
Sometimes I would wake up with vertigo, and I was afraid to leave the house.

And I never felt safe driving because I didn’t know when the next attack would strike.

But for the first time in a long time, I feel so much better in so many ways.

Even my anxiety is so much better. It feels like I’m kicking into my old self again.

People who couldn’t help me told me it was just my age, but I knew better.

Now I’m able to get out and about go shopping play with my grandkids and if this was ever age related, I feel like I just got 40 years back.

To anyone who feels like they’re stuck it’s not age you just need the right help.

I hope this helps you as much as it’s helped me.

So much less chronic pain than what I just considered normal for so long.

Neck shoulder back you name it…
I lived with it for years.
Even with great physical therapy and chiropractic.

Truth be told I still have tinnitus, but everything is so much better. I’m still glad that that’s what brought me here.

When my rheumatologist told me that I couldn’t see my chiropractor anymore, I was concerned.

But I was ready to try something new anyway.

And when I found out that Dr Polucki doesn’t do the twisting and cracking that scares most people I wanted to see if it might help.

I’m glad I followed my gut.

I feel so much better in so many ways…

I just got back from two weeks on the road With minimal discomfort.

That trip would have ruined me just a month ago.

I feel better overall now than I have in years, even though my stress levels are higher than ever.

If there’s any doubt, I hope that my story helps someone make the right choice

because so far, everyone that I’ve sent here has a similar experience to mine.

Upper cervical saved my life.
Six years ago, I had my first episode of full-blown Ménière’s disease.
It was so bad that I fell down and hurt myself, and I needed hearing aids just to function .
The daughter of a friend recommended upper cervical care and within a few weeks. The dizziness was gone, and I could hear out of one ear again.
With upper cervical care, I have not had another episode of dizziness, and I can hear out of one ear pretty normally .
I was told by my medical doctors that none of that was possible .
So I hope this finds someone who is as desperate as I was to get the relief that only upper cervical gave me .

I had such excruciating pain in my shoulders that radiated all the way to both hands. I was afraid I was gonna have to change careers.

But when the sciatica and numbness in both feet piled on top of that, I knew I had to make some changes.

My mom heard so many good things about Dr. Polucki that she did a deep dive online and got me the first available appointment.

I wasn’t sure what to expect because I’d never even considered chiropractic before.
Mostly because what you see on TV or social media I was scared about chiropractic.

I felt like he heard my concerns and explained everything in a way that I didn’t have any thing to worry about.

I knew I didn’t want the twisting and cracking that you see online and you hear about and that was the main reason that my mom suggested I go to see him.

Within a few visits, I knew I was gonna get better and maybe I overdid it a little because my job is very demanding and I’m all in when I go to work.

But even with that temporary flareup, I was better almost immediately after treatment and it’s only gotten better since.

In just a few short weeks, I went from severe constant pain in my arms and legs to being able to work through a day.

And after a few weeks more, my pain occasionally reaches a three no matter how hard I work.

This has saved my career and I hope my story helps other people who wouldn’t consider chiropractic as an option.

Started treatment with Dr. Polucki about 3 & a half years in to my journey with trigeminal neuralgia. Before working with him, I tried a handful of medications, one I even had a severely allergic reaction to. I tried modalities like accupuncture, traditional chiropractic and massage as well, but nothing really worked. MVD surgery only provided partial relief. Going on 4 years with the condition now and I can honestly say that I have my life back thanks to Dr. Polucki’s methods and expertise in upper cervical work. I now no longer take pain management medication for my TN. I would highly recommend this modality and his practice for others dealing with trigeminal neuralgia.

Yesterday I was able to spend almost 4 hours in 4 to 5 foot faces in Ventura that surfing.

Just a couple weeks ago, I couldn’t even get through a night of sleep.

My back had been killing me for over a year.
My friend was trying to convince me to go see Dr. Polucki.

But first I tried all of the online advice, stretching Icing over the counter pain management… But I ran out of options and wasn’t getting any better.

I finally took his advice. And within two weeks, I was sleeping through the night.
Annette gave me the energy that I need to get through my workday which I was starting to get concerned about before I met Dr. Polucki.

I I just wish I would’ve done this sooner.
