When I moved to Portland about three years ago, I was looking for a chiropractor in my neighborhood. I happened to walk by Cascade Chiropractic, met Alex, made an appointment and never looked back. I won the lottery finding Dr. Cooper!
An old car accident, past sport injuries, and generally bad genetics (as far as bone structure goes), I have been seeking chiropractic care since my mid-teens. I have typically always worked a job that requires me to be on my feet all day, causing extreme knots and pain in my shoulders, and lots of lower back tension. On my first visit, Dr. Cooper did a full evaluation, an x-ray, and began treatment immediately. I vividly remember the first time leaving Dr. Coopers office and feeling brand new. My muscles softened, my chest opened up and I could stand for longer than 10 minutes without pain. To keep myself feeling great, I typically get treated 2-4 times a month and get massaged once a month.
A few months ago, I was injured at work and sprained my lower back. Alex worked extremely hard to help me get all my workers comp benefits. Dr. Cooper helped me get back to normal by regular treatments and massage plus recommending me to a great PT (Though he gave me lots of strength building exercises also). It took a bit of time but, I am now feeling totally back to normal.
I can’t speak highly enough of Cascade Chiropractic. I recommend them to all my friends (and strangers). Dr. Cooper doesn’t end the appointment until I’m feeling great. He not only does manipulations but he does stretches and Gua sha (when I’m super stiff). They are not just great at their job, but they are great people who make me feel good in and out every visit!
My lower jaw shifted and developed TMJ pain. I went through a four-year painful orthodontic treatment as an adult. When the treatment was completed, it did not cure the problem. So my bite was not adjusted. I continued to live in pain, headaches and discomfort. I started with massage therapy and chiropractic care to ease my pain.Eventually, I started with the chiropractor, Dr. Rick Allen. In 2013, he hired Chris Cooper who was a senior student at UWS Chiropractic College in Portland. Chris was fresh blood to the chiropractic office. He worked on my neck with special tools called “adhesion breakers”. The new technique speeded my treatment produced phenomenal results. It changed my life. As a result, I began to feel so much better.
Chris graduated from the Chiropractic College in 2013. Dr. Chris Cooper is a young enthusiastic chiropractor with new ideas. He is very concentrated and focuses on his work and strives to the full satisfaction of his patients.
I would recommend Dr. Cooper to any body that had unsuccessful orthodontic and TMJ problems. He brightened my life and made me very happy.
