Auto Injury

Before Dan, I hadn’t seen or even heard of a Gonstead chiropractor. After the results that I’ve received, I’ve been feeling much better and have had less irritability in my lower back. I’ve seen other chiropractors in the past but after seeing him it changed my mind on chiropractic because he practiced Gonstead on me. His adjustments were a lot more specific as he targeted my actual problem rather than adjusting multiple spots in my back. After seeing Dan, the pain has significantly decreased and my lower back has felt the best it’s been. Now I see him for wellness and preventative care and I no longer experience the pain and discomfort I previously had.

I was having a lot of back and neck pain that resulted in headaches daily. I was seeing a Gonstead chiropractor beforehand and wanted to continue seeing one while attending school in the area. I found Daniel Brisuda, who practices the Gonstead technique, and found that there were different ways to help relieve my headaches. After seeing him 1-2 times a week in the first month; I started seeing results almost immediately. The headaches disappeared along with my neck and back pain. I started sleeping better at night and my body function was ultimately restored. Also, as a current chiropractic student, Daniel was very willing and adamant in helping me learn and understand the Gonstead technique all the while educating me on the whole process of what a thorough system of analysis can do in chiropractic.

I have had rib pain and pain between my shoulder blades from my double mastectomy for over 5 years. It was really tough sleeping through the night and going to the gym with this pain. I came across Daniel who practices Gonstead. In a short time, my rib pain disappeared. I had tried other chiropractors in the past and my pain stayed the same but this really helped me. I rarely feel rib pain or pain between my shoulder blades anymore. I'm so happy I can lift and sleep better now. I also noticed that my anxiety and stress went down after I started receiving treatment.

For any former athletes, or anyone dealing with chronic pain, I can't recommend Gonstead Chiropractic Clinic of Jacksonville enough. As a retired collegiate wrestler, I’ve put my body through years of intense training and competition. Over time, that wear and tear caught up to me, especially in my lower back. The pain became a constant part of my life. It limited my workouts, made it hard to stay active, and even affected my sleep and daily routine. I tried everything between stretching, massages, physical therapy, and even rest, but nothing gave me lasting relief. When I met Daniel, he introduced me to the Gonstead chiropractic system, and right away, I noticed how specific and targeted the care was. There were no unnecessary exercises or long rehab routines, just precise adjustments that worked. It was incredibly gentle but effective.

Since 2023, I had a burning pain in my mid-back. This pain made it hard to do many daily activities and impacted my focus in school. The pain was gone with only a few adjustments, and my day-to-day life improved so much. I won’t be going to anyone else besides Daniel Brisuda now.

I was dealing with constant upper thoracic pain and stiffness that made it nearly impossible to get a good night’s sleep. I would wake up multiple times throughout the night, tossing and turning just trying to find a comfortable position. It was affecting my energy, mood, and ability to focus during the day. I tried tons of different ways to try to get a better night’s sleep. What stood out about Gonstead Chiropractic was how specific and targeted the care was. Dan pinpointed exactly where the issue was coming from and adjusted only what needed to be corrected. He was super knowledgeable, with no guessing. And unlike other approaches, I didn’t have to do hours of stretches or exercises outside of the clinic to see results. Within just a few visits, I started sleeping through the night again, something I hadn’t done in months. My upper back felt looser, my posture improved, and I finally had the energy to get through my day without feeling drained.

My main problem was my lower back pain was horrible. It stopped me from doing activities like running, weight training, practicing judo, and simple daily tasks. Before going to Daniel Brisuda I went to a chiropractor in Puerto Rico who would adjust my whole spine. It did not work! But seeing Daniel using Gonstead Chiropractic, helped me so much in my life. It took about 1 and a half weeks to clearly see results. Since then activities like running, going to the gym, doing judo, as well as cleaning in my apartment have been amazing with no lower back pain. On the other hand, Daniel was able to accommodate me for an appointment to help me when I needed him the most when the pain flared up after another judo injury, as well as he taught me a lot during the process.
