I am writing this to encourage anyone who is in pain to talk with Dr. Hodges. The past 15 years my left hip and right shoulder have occasionally bothered me. Last summer the pain became so severe that I had to seek help. Fortunately Dr. Hodges chiropractic office was recommended. Using x-rays, which had not been done previously, he found that my left leg was shorter than my right. Additionally, my lower lumbar vertebrae was fused to my sacrum, so my back angled to the left. No wonder I was in pain! Dr. Hodges gave me a shoe insert to compensate for my shorter leg. Within three days my hip stopped hurting. With physical therapy and back manipulations my entire back is improving. My husband had back pain (his legs are the same length) and he has also found relief with chiropractic care. Here's the best part. We have two boys in their 20's and both are very active and love to run. While running, the youngest was complaining of knee pain; the older of severe foot pain, so he had stopped running. Dr. Hodges checked them, did x-rays, and found their left legs are shorter than their right legs. Dr. Hodges gave them shoe inserts and they have one taped into every left shoe they own. They are now both at college running and hiking pain free. I am grateful this was found when they were young. We are very grateful to Dr. Hodges and his staff and recommend him to anyone who is in need of medical care.
