It gave me my life back after the pain of Trigeminal Neuralgia!
I have atypical Trigeminal neuralgia on both sides of my face. It is a rare condition, that is called the “suicide pain” because it causes the highest level of sharp stabbing and electric shock pains that are unbearable. I saw many neurologists who had no treatment options but to put me on super high doses of anticonvulsants, no other pain medications help with this condition. I had to take the medication in order to keep the pain manageable but I could hardly function because of the side effects of such high doses.
While searching the internet for some type of help for my condition I found out about NUCCA. I could hardly believe it when I found out Dr. Tim was just a couple of miles from my home. I read a book called What Time Tuesday? about a man with Trigeminal Neuralgia that was going to kill himself because of the chronic pain but then found out about NUCCA and it saved his life. I was afraid to get my hopes up since nothing else worked and made the appointment with Dr. Tim.
After my very first NUCCA alignment I began to notice a decrease in pain just like the man in the book described. I went back for additional NUCCA alignments and I was then able to decrease my medication by a quarter of what I was taking. Although with my condition, I need to go for an alignment once every 4-6 weeks, it has given me my life back!
As I continued with my treatment I also got relief from many other pains from previous injuries that I thought would just be part of my life. I will forever be grateful for Dr. Tim and the NUCCA procedure!

At first I was skeptical but I got better!
I am an owner operator at a saw mill so I get into very rough work at times. I first started seeing Dr. Tim due to chronic lower back pain. I’d have to walk bent over until I got to Dr. Tim. I had previously gone to other chiropractors, and I got very minimal help. And after being referred here by another client, I decided to give it a try. When I came to Dr. Tim, I was very skeptical. I thought it was basically a joke. The very first time I came, I went away much better. It was unbelievable, really. I would certainly recommend it for other people, especially for lower back pain and neck problems. It’s really a phenomenal treatment. I’m really impressed with the exactness of the treatment.
It has been the best thing I’ve done for my back and my health
I started with Dr. Tim because I’ve gone to like four or five other chiropractors that didn’t seem to help the curvature of my spine and couldn’t keep me out of pain. Anytime I would try to do something for the next three or four days, I was in pain, be it shoveling the walk or working out in the barn. Since I’ve been coming to see Dr Tim, it started out every week, and then every two weeks, and now I’m every three weeks. And although I do get in pain when I do these things, when I lay down and get up the next day, the pain is gone.
So the adjustments and the corrections are able to help me to continue living a life where I can get things done and don’t have to be so dependent on others. I would absolutely recommend it. It has been the best thing, the best decision I’ve done for my back and my health since I started here.
What brought me here actually was nutrition and losing weight
I’m a retired teacher and currently am taking care of my father and doing some triathlons. What brought me here actually was nutrition and losing some weight, which we did so effectively. I learned a lot about healthy eating, even though I thought I was a healthy eater. And from that point on, going through the triathlons, I’ve had some spills and other issues that Dr Tim has helped by keeping me in alignment. And I have to say it has certainly surprised me with how effective a gentle procedure like this was. So I really do enjoy coming back on a monthly basis, sometimes more, and just feeling like my body is back in alignment and I’m able to continue to do the things I need to do and keep myself healthy.
I was suffering from sciatica for almost 10 years until NUCCA
I had a severe accident when I was 17 years old, and because of that, I had a hairline fracture in my pelvic area, and that brought me into a lot of back pain. I was suffering from sciatica for almost 10 years, until we came to the U.S., and one of our friends told us about NUCCA. My life has changed after NUCCA. To sum it up , NUCCA has balanced my life in such a way because my body gets balanced whenever I get a NUCCA adjustment. And it not only helps with my back pain, but also with my digestive system and my mental health. It just makes me happy. It makes me feel good and I can focus on more things instead of just focusing on my pain like I used to do earlier. And I think everyone should get a NUCCA balance done. And Dr. Tim is the best doctor here. Thanks!
By the grace of God I was led to Dr. Tim
My condition was right below the head, the right side where the skull is, the soft area below it. I had a very deep and painful bruise feeling for 25 years that never went away. I went to six chiropractors, all promised results, and received none. I had acupuncture, nerve blockings, and lots of other things. Migraine headaches is what resulted, and Imitrex helped me, but I often stayed in bed for a day or two at a time. By the grace of God, I was led to Dr. Tim, and he has helped me to the point where I practically never get a headache, now I know what to do if I do get one. It had interfered with my life in every way, so he has helped me greatly. And also, at the same time when I came, I had a rotator cuff problem, and that’s been taken care of too. I was surprised how easy it was and how gentle the correction was, and it didn’t seem like he was doing much, but the results were really good, and I’d recommend him to everybody and anybody.
Helped me get realigned and live a much better life!
I had severe cervical neck pain and headaches. When I first came to see Dr. Tim, my alignment was really out, but through the program that he has, he’s helped me get realigned and live a much better life. What really surprised me about the process was how gentle and easy it was. There was no jerking or cracking of the bones or cracking of the neck which really surprised me. So the procedure Dr. Tim uses I fully recommend and you’ll have much better wellness and a much better life.
It feels great to be rid of that jaw pain!
I first came to see Dr. Tim because of intense pain in my jaw due to grinding my teeth at night and it was so bad I couldn’t even open my mouth all the way. I even had trouble eating because I had trouble fitting a fork in my mouth. But thanks to his care I feel so much better and I feel normal now. And it feels great to be rid of that pain. So I’m very grateful to his work and for having found out about upper cervical care
NUCCA cured my sciatica pain that other chiropractors actually made worse
I injured my back from a delivery job that required constant in and out of a small car. I saw a chiropractor that my friend recommended but continued to get worse. By the time I could barely stand up straight I finally decided to try NUCCA and saw Dr. Tim. The upper cervical adjustment along with some other gentle chiropractic procedures and laser treatment got me fixed up and back to a pain free life! Thanks Dr. Tim for all your help!
Immense help for vertigo!
I went to Dr Tim for pain and vertigo…He has helped me immensely! I get aligned and laser treatments… the laser helps my neck and my wrist which has severe nerve damage. I feel Dr Tim is knowledgeable and wants to help people.
Tried many chiropractors for injury from an auto accident but it was Dr Strittmatter that got me back to work!
It was a long journey until I found Dr Strittmatter. I was in some car accidents and I was in some pain. It was minimal pain, but a friend of mine said, let’s go to a chiropractor. And I went and it didn’t do anything for me. So then a few years later the pain increased. And it trickled down throughout my entire body, I was in so much pain. I had to quit work for about eight months and we were financially distraught. So I had to go back to work and tried many chiropractors. I also did Rolfing, massages, acupuncture, ultrasound, E-Stim, and nothing was working. And if it did, it was very temporary. So I used various medications for years and it didn’t take the pain away, it just made me so I could at least function. And I had to work because we needed the money. I even wrote three suicide letters because I was in extreme pain from my head to my toes. I couldn’t sleep on my left side, my right side or my back or my belly. I couldn’t sit for very long at all. I used to pace the floors. I would hardly sleep, and then I’d have to work.
So I started getting more massages, and then one day, thank God that the therapist was late, and I happened to pick up a health magazine. And this health magazine had Dr. Strittmatter’s picture in it, and I read about him. Out of desperation, I told my husband but he wasn’t happy because it was another chiropractor. And I said, we have to try something again. So after we looked up his website, we went and had an appointment. And it’s been a miracle! I am back to work. I’m an occupational therapy assistant. I do a lot of lifting. I’m on my feet. And I have to say, I feel so good. I’ve told friends about him. He’s also helped another friend of mine who was on disability for three years and she’s back to work. So thank you!
Dr. Tim is the only one that made any improvement compared to any other medical doctor or any other therapy
When I first came to Dr. Tim, I was in a lot of pain. I had mobility issues. I was depressed and I had gone through a very difficult time because of a back injury I sustained with herniated discs and a sprained sacroiliac joint. My life crumbled down. I ended up losing my job and having a lot of personal issues because of my emotional condition had gotten so poor. So a friend of mine, who is a client of Dr Tim’s, saw me in all this terrible pain and told me all about him. I was kind of skeptical because I’ve been to other chiropractors many times and it had failed but she told me about Dr. Tim’s NUCCA technique and how carefully he would take x-rays and measurements. So I made my first consultation with Dr. Tim and he did all the careful x-rays and then the next time I came, he showed me how crooked my head, my atlas and axis of my skull were and he manipulated me and it was very gentle. I’ve made such incredible progress with Dr. Tim. Before I met Dr Tim I did spinal injections, pain medication that almost killed me. I did everything you could possibly do and Dr. Tim is the only one that made any improvement compared to any other medical doctor or any other therapy I tried. NUCCA I believe is a great healer and I believe Dr. Tim has the gift of healing.
It gave me instant relief!
When I was in my late teens I was a gymnast. I would come home and I would have a lot of pain in my lower back. That prompted my parents to take me to the orthopedic surgeons and they did x-rays and we soon discovered that I had a scoliosis in my spine and my lower fifth lumbar vertebrae had a defect. And what I was doing was causing me a lot of lower back pain. I went to various orthopedic surgeons and they offered all sorts of remedies. One doctor said I had to go under the knife right away, within a week. Many years after that, I happened to learn about NUCCA through a family friend. And when I started that treatment, it gave me tremendous results. It gave me instant relief. Dr Tim he’s just so good at what he does.
I highly recommend this to everybody who has back problems
I was actually healed by NUCCA
Christmas Eve, I threw my back out. And it’s absolutely the worst time of year to be injured. And I went to the hospital and all the doctors had nothing they could do to help me and they wanted to give me pain medicine. They were talking about disability. And I was thinking I’m too young for this, this isn’t a viable solution. I needed something that’s actually going to help me. Before this incident I saw a Dr. Tim a couple of times and I really enjoyed that he always helped me. On Christmas Eve whenever this happened we called Dr. Tim because I had nowhere else to turn. I saw him the next day and I was actually able to get up and walk around and go up a flight of stairs. And over the process of a couple of weeks and then months, I was actually healed and I was keeping my alignment. For me, my chiropractor appointments with Dr. Tim are so very important and I see him very regularly every month and it’s the one thing that keeps me in check and keeps my wellness going forward. I can’t recommend him enough.
Help with Meniere’s disease
Ten years ago I was diagnosed with Meniere’s disease and I went to an Ear, Nose and Throat specialist. He suggested steroid shots. So I went to him three times and each time got a steroid shot. And then after that he told me, well, my nerves were dead and I wouldn’t be able to hear in that ear. So I got a hearing aid and it didn’t help at all. So that’s the way it’s been now for 10 years until I came to Dr. Strittmatter. On the second visit, I was able to hear.
Rave reviews for Dr. Tim
I’m a corrections officer in Pittsburgh, PA. I’ve had years of back pain from an injury. And up to this date, he’s done wonders for my back. And the health of my back and the pain factor has been decreased a good bit. And I have nothing but rave reviews for Dr. Tim
Exercise induced asthma relief
I am an ultra runner. The main reason I came to see Dr. Tim is because I have exercise-induced asthma. It used to be extremely bad before I came. I would feel it, even if I wasn’t exercising, just day to day, I would feel the pressure, the hard breathing. And then obviously when I ran, it was even worse.Since coming to Dr. Tim, I don’t feel it at all when I’m not running. And when I am running, it is almost not there. And sometimes it’s not there at all. So if you’re a runner and you have any aches and pains and you want to become a better runner, Dr. Tim is more than capable of helping you achieve your goals.
