Patient Testimonials

"Dr. Piva is the first doctor that has taken the time to figure out "why" and not just crack my back."

Dr. Piva is incredible. He is so very good at listening to symptoms and explaining how to eliminate them. His staff will immediately put you at ease from the moment you walk (or hobble) through the door of his serene and welcoming offices. I came in barely able to move. Within a little over a week, I was completely pain free and mobile! I am a believer!!! He promised I would be “feeling better” within two weeks. My treatment was completely OVER in literally four very pleasant visits. Dr. Piva was not concerned with lining his coffers with money from unnecessary “follow-up” visits. He always stressed if I needed him, even after office hours or on weekends to call. He is sincerely passionate about his work and genuinely cares about the health and well-being of those he treats. There is no way to convey how impressed I was with not only his expertise, but his integrity. I will recommend him to anyone who will listen. I have learned there are simple things I can do like basic stretches and minimal exercises that will keep my core strong and my back limber and pain free. I do them willingly and happily! It’s truly amazing such simple things make such an amazing difference.

To everyone at Pleasant Hill Chiropractic:
I want to thank you for making me feel so much better and actually be able to walk again without severe pain. For 6 months I have been plagued with chronic foot pain. It had gotten so bad that I couldn’t walk my dogs up the street. After being diagnosed with everything from plantar fasciitis to flat feet, I was persuaded to visit Dr. Piva, within one visit; Dr. Piva was able to pinpoint the problem as residual pain from a previous ankle injury. Through therapy, adjustments and acupuncture, Dr. Piva corrected the problem and has gotten me back on my feet. Thank you for giving me my life back.

P.S. My dog Sissy appreciates even more than me!! :-)

After 35 years of standing on concrete I thought my ankles and knees were shot. Thanks to Dr. Piva and his staff I have regained mobility and my ankles and knees are moving again without the pain!

Dr. Piva knew just what I needed for my lower back and foot pain. He showed me what to do at home to help myself and he knew just how to adjust me to get everything in line. He is wonderful! I’m not in the pain that I used to be, and I know how to exercise the right way. Because I feel better, I’m more alive and enjoying a pain free life. I feel great. I recommend him to everyone, he is the best!

I have had headaches everyday for at least 15 years. Medication everyday was the only way I could get relief. After 3 visits to Dr. Piva I have been headache free for over a week. I now can really enjoy the time I have with my wife and children. The biggest change is that I no longer have to take 6 to 8 pills a day to keep a constant headache tolerable. I can enjoy home life and my job now without headache pain.

I have had numbing and discoloration of fingers due to Reynaud’s Syndrome. Dr. Piva began an acupuncture treatment to stimulate the circulation to the fingertips. He recommended a regular acupuncture regimen and immediately began to focus on the fingertips. He went directly to the affected area to administer a most effective treatment. The numbness and discoloration has been minimized and I am able to control it much more expediently. Where I previously would experience numbing for hours following an episode, I now am able to regain feeling in a matter of a few minutes, sometimes avoiding it altogether. Dr. Piva wasted no time in treating my condition and has made a significant difference in the quality of my daily activities.

I could not turn my head to the left at all. The pain was so great I would cry. After seeing Dr. Piva and he gave me treatments and acupuncture I am 100% back to normal. I cannot thank him enough. I wish I had come to him sooner. It is wonderful at my age of 84, I am able to do the things I had been able to do all my life. I cannot thank Dr. Piva enough. May God Bless him.

I have Neuropathy in my feet and legs and Dr. Piva’s acupuncture treatments have helped me immensely. I no longer have the burning in my feet or the pain in my legs. I’ve gone as long as 2 month’s between treatments. I can now go about my daily routine without the burning and the pain. Also, I’m able to sleep all night without the discomfort in my feet and legs.

Before being treated by Dr. Piva, I was required to see a chiropractor at least once a month. Dr. Piva’s adjustments have made me feel better for up to two years! I now have much less down time from work.

I am on my feet 8 to 10 hours per day at work. I thought I was going to have to give up my job, the pain was keeping me awake at night. The treatment Dr. Piva provided changed my life. My legs and knees don’t hurt anymore. I can’t believe it. I really thank Dr. Piva.

I was ready for surgery or whatever to relieve the pain. I couldn’t sit, stand or walk very long. Dr. Piva recommended the traction table to release the pressure on the bad disc. It made the difference of having surgery or not. I’m not 100% but maybe 90% and with regular tune ups and stretching I can do almost anything I wish, I can handle the pain.

Because my left leg was crushed in a car accident, it’s 7/8 of inch shorter. I started seeing Dr. Piva for regular adjustments, and I now limp less and have no pain in that leg. Also he has very lovely and caring women on his staff.

When I came to see Dr. Piva for the first time I had never seen a chiropractor before. Dr Piva assessed an injury related to lifting incorrectly. I was in significant pain and was having trouble walking. With the first session I experienced relief. Several treatments later and education on stretching exercises and I was back to normal. Following my treatment my back health has greatly improved. I have been very impressed with Dr. Piva and his staff for their compassion and professionalism. For me Dr. Piva has become a good friend that I see reaching out to our community. He has shown me exercises that improved my health and I highly recommended him to friends and family. Dr. Piva thank you for your compassion in helping your patient’s reach optimum health.

I would like to start by saying; I’ve had back problems for about 13 years and been to a lot of chiropractors. Dr. Piva is the first doctor that has taken the time to figure out (Why) and not just crack my back. All the years of adjustments and it boiled down to a muscle problem. I feel better every week when I do what he says. I sleep better, I’m more active and I’m in a lot better mood because I’m not in pain 24 hours a day. Thanks a lot, Dr. Piva, your service is very much appreciated.
