Testimonials

Since January I have only been able to sleep on my back, afraid of the nerve pain if I roll over. After just 2 treatments with Dr Born, using laser therapy I slept on my side! So exciting! Definitely life changing! -M.E.

I hurt my shoulder after doing Y raises at the gym. Major pain started a few hours after the workout, it came on strong over the next two days. Pain was an 8.5 out of 10 and Motrin, Tylenol, and ice didn’t touch it. I sleep on that side and was absolutely miserable. I went to my chiropractor and Dr. Born suggested Low Level Laser Therapy. I couldn’t lift my arm high enough to type at my computer on Monday. After just one treatment, I was able to do some typing and I had better range of motion. 4 days later after just two treatments, I have full range of motion and the pain is down to 1 out of 10 and I can type normally again. Simply amazing!  -M.R.

(Treatment during Quarantine) The new Space Age Clean room Dr. Bryan set up made me feel completely safe, and I can get much-needed treatment for my rheumatoid arthritis.

(Treatment during quarantine) I was really hurting and even had to go to the ER in the last week. I felt safe and comfortable in Dr. Bryan’s new room. The airflow was good, it was very clean. I liked the system of texting when we arrive, and bringing our own sheet was brilliant!

Dr. Bryan basically changed my life overnight. I had been having chronic severe headaches off and on for years and they had become so bad that I had had one near-constantly for weeks. Doctors for years had been telling me just to take allergy medicine and that they must be allergy headaches which obviously was not the case, so I had stopped seeing doctors about it and was feeling kind of hopeless. I went in for one of what I thought was going to be several appointments with Doctor Bryan who informed me that it could be an alignment issue at the base of my skull, which he adjusted. The next day, my headache was gone and I felt better than I had in a long time. Sincerely thank you so much Dr. Bryan, for your help and your honesty. I feel like I can trust you more than any general practitioner I've ever been to.

Mr. Wunderful called on a Sunday, major back pain. Office obviously closed... Dr. Bryan opened the office and treated him. A new patient at that. Was extremely knowledgeable and understood exactly what the problem was. A+ for quality of care, compassion, responsiveness and customer service. We will be back!

Dr. Bryan, I wanted to thank you for the relief you have brought me and piece of mind. I've been allergic to oranges since I was 5 years old, I'm now 25, it made me literally scared of orange my whole life. The smell or sight of them would set me off physically and emotionally... But as of today that's the past, today you got me to put a piece of fresh orange in my mouth, and I didn't die! So here I am after leaving the office crying out of joy cause my life will be so different now. Now I don't have to live in fear that one day something as simple as an orange would be the death of me.

Thank you so much Dr. Bryan Born, you're my hero!

Dr. Born is amazing!! I called for an appointment this morning because I had really severe back pain. The staff got me in within half an hour. Dr. Born explained what was going on with my back and did an adjustment that helped immediately. By the end of the day, my back was so much better. Dr. Born even called later to see how I was doing. Overall, my experience was very positive and I would recommend Dr. Born to anyone looking for excellent chiropractic care.

Dr. Born is not only a remarkable physician but a tremendous educator as well. I can recommend him without the slightest reservation.

I've been visiting the Borns for over 11 years now, both for when I have pain and also for periodic adjustments and they are amazing!

No cracking or wrenching, just gentle, natural adjustments that are truly "painless".I feel so much better after each adjustment that I wonder how uncomfortable my life would be without it!

I wanted to share a phone message that I received this morning from my sister. She said she woke up with hardly an ache or pain. Her voice was pain-free, something I haven't heard in a long time. I also saw her yesterday and her face didn't show the lines of pain and discomfort that it has for so long.

I know it took some convincing for my sister to come to you but I am overjoyed that she did. Thanks so much for relieving her pain and easing my mind. You have my eternal gratitude.

The staff are super awesome! In addition to being kind, caring people, they are always very helpful to me. Dr. Born takes great care of my whole family.

What I love about Dr. Born is he doesn't just start adjusting you. He listens first. Finds out what is wrong and spends the appropriate time so you don't feel like you're being rushed through like cattle. He LOVES what he does and it shows. I trust him enough to bring my 9-month old daughter to him as well - that should say it all.

I had my first appointment yesterday afternoon and these guys were great! It was an emergency appointment due to sudden and horrific back pain. After VERY gentle adjustments and some instruction on how to move as well as ice packs... I am feeling much better.

The staff was awesome. The service was outstanding! Looking forward to a long relationship!

Dr. Bryan’s knowledge is amazing. He can break down complex things so non-medical people can understand what is going on with our bodies & how to get better.

Dr. Born was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn't be happier. Although I'm still a new patient, I have already benefited from his gentle technique, patient explanation, and fantastic customer service. I highly recommend him. I have had chronic problems with my low back, shoulder, and neck, and he has been able to address all three.

Over the course of several weeks, I had been suffering from lower back pain and a seemingly incurable UTI. Being frustrated with my M.D., a friend suggested I go to her chiropractor, Dr. Bryan. After my first visit, my UTI symptoms had disappeared and my back pain had greatly improved. Dr. Bryan took to time to explain how my UTI and back pain were connected and it made total sense. It is clear that Dr. Bryan has a genuine concern about his patients by the way he takes the time to teach you about your body, why it hurts, and how he can help. Both Dr. Bryan and his staff are very helpful and friendly. I would recommend Dr. Bryan to anyone.

I had been to 4 different chiropractors before becoming a patient of Dr. Bryan a couple of years ago. And I have to say, there is NO comparison! Dr. Bryan has eliminated the daily severe headaches I suffered from every day for my entire adult life (I'm in my 40's). And now, with regular adjustments I am much healthier in all ways and recover MUCH faster from injuries and illness than I ever did before.

His painless techniques are amazing and he is pleasant and friendly at every visit.

His staff is also top rate, efficient and always EXTREMELY friendly.

I also trust Dr. Bryan with the health of my daughters, the youngest of which is 3 years old and always looks forward to her appointments.

Truly a fan of Dr. Bryan! He has helped me get over such immense pain after a bad car accident. No manual adjustments, all with a little tool. No pain whatsoever! The staff is amazing too!

They take such pride in what they do, and always make you feel as if you are the only customer/patient. The consultations are never rushed. The adjustments, never rushed.

The office is always clean, bathrooms are always clean, and they are also very organized. I love everyone there!

Dear Dr. Born and Staff,

Just want to send a note of thanks to you and your staff.

I came to your office for the first time last week with concerns about rib/spinal pain and constipation. Your competent staff treated me with courtesy, care, and kindness.

I visited your office three consecutive days, and each time, I was immediately greeted and taken care of (no wait!). I really appreciated the prompt attention.

I am amazed with the treatments and results I received. My condition is greatly improved. I was especially interested to discover that lumbar spinal restriction was a cause of my bowel dysfunction. Also, I experienced a menstrual period. I haven’t had one in two years. . .thought I was post-menopausal. During this course of treatment, prior to starting my period, I had noticed I wasn’t having the hot-flashes I’ve been experiencing for years. This is truly a blessing.

Even though I have some knowledge of anatomy and physiology, I wasn’t thinking of how my lumbar spine condition could be inhibiting innervation to organs and systems. I’m intrigued.

I also appreciated not being pressured to commit to a long-term treatment program. I am certainly convinced that treatment for spinal health has to be a regular part of my health regimen.

Dr. Bryan, I am very grateful for your expertise and efforts to inform and educate.

Thanks for your care!

Dear Dr. Born,

On behalf of my wife and myself, I would like to take a moment to say THANK YOU for all the help you and your staff have provided during our visits to Southfield. More than once you have gone out of your way to fit the two of us into the busy office schedule.

Every time we plan a trip to Southfield an appointment with you is an essential part of the schedule. After years of traveling all over the U.S., Canada and Mexico on tour and visiting uncounted chiropractors, you are without a doubt, the best we have ever had the pleasure of working with! I say working with because we all (you, me and my wife) understand that keeping our bodies functioning properly is not something you do alone on your table. The in-depth explanations you provide regarding our problems, their causes, and what can be done to reduce or eliminate them in the future are, in our experiences, unique.

As a life long ice skater my wife has spent way too much time throwing herself around the ice and therefore presents a special challenge to any chiropractor. Four years ago you were able to FIX problems that would have otherwise prevented her from skating in the Southfield show.

As a child of the early 50’s polio was not uncommon and even though I’m not handicapped (in my opinion), I do realize there is a lack of muscular balance that presents another special case. Your ability to diagnose and treat my problems, plus your willingness to take the time to explain not only the problem but to also discuss what may be their cascading effects on the rest of my body is invaluable. It not only helps me understand and deal with them it also helps me work around them without causing additional problems.

In closing, you are without a doubt the most knowledgeable and helpful medical professional we have had the pleasure of working with anywhere, anytime, and we treasure the relationship.

With an abundance of gratitude,

Dear Dr. Born,

I wanted to thank you so very, very much FOR so very, very much. Where to begin. . .

First of all, for helping my husband with a chronic shoulder problem that from which, after just a few visits with you, he has finally found relief.

But most of all, I want to thank you on behalf of my family for all of your work with our infant daughter. I say my family because, thanks largely to you, they have a happier mommy and baby in the house!!

I saw you several times before the birth, and believe that it helped with the labor and delivery, and the speed of the post-partum healing. Even so, walking into your office for my first post-partum visit with you, I was unable to lift my feet off the ground, was very sore, and was hardly able to stand up straight. When I left your office, I was lifting my feet off the ground, was standing up straighter, and was in less pain. A mere 5 visits – 2 weeks – later, I pretty much was back to myself. What a difference from my experience with my first child. . .it took literally months before I could stand up straight or walk normally, and it left me with a chronic hip problem (which you took care of before I got pregnant with our second!).

As for my daughter, after her first visit with you, we could see the difference — the way her body relaxed totally, arms dropped at her side instead of clenched up by her chest, hands open instead of tightly fisted, her breathing slow and deep instead of shallow and short, when she slept. And, while she was initially very “tense” while nursing, after three adjustments, she relaxed her nursing, and her overall disposition (comfort!) was greatly improved. Within a few weeks, she started to show signs of allergic reactions in the form of inflamed, red, bumpy rashes all over her face, increased digestive discomfort and overall unhappiness. You began work with her in earnest, and within hours of each visit, there was marked improvement in all areas. Within a few weeks, her skin was back to normal, her digestion had settled down again, her sleep improved, and the amount of time that she was awake and CONTENT was noticeably improved with each visit.

Basically, I could pretty well count on her being a much happier baby after a visit with you than before!!! I firmly believe that had I known about you when my older son was born, both he and I (not to mention my husband!!) would have had a MUCH better time of his infancy.

The other thing for which I cannot express enough gratitude is your treating her free of charge (due to your policy concerning pregnant patients). The difference your treatment has made in her life, and in turn ours, is immeasurable. Not only have you seen her at no charge, but so frequently. NEVER have I felt like you were skimping on her care because you had nothing to gain financially from it; to the contrary, you have encouraged us to bring her frequently and regularly, and never to hesitate to come in were she to need care before a scheduled appointment.

So, “thank you” doesn’t really begin to say it, but since it’s all I can say, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!! May you be blessed with much success in your work in all areas now and in the future.

By the way, I can’t say enough about your office staff. Each one of them is warmer and nicer and lovelier than the next, and calling and visiting your office is always such a pleasure (wish I could say that about all my doctor’s office experiences!!!).

M.B.

Dear Dr. Born,

Several weeks ago I spoke with you about my hypertension. I have been on medication for quite a while and would like to decrease if not completely eliminate the need for this medication. You discussed with me the need for good nutrition and how the body responds when it is deficient.

You gave me a dietary supplement that would in time restore my body and all of its’ systems to a better way of functioning. At this time, my concern was my elevated blood pressure. I began taking 1/2 tablet of the supplement you gave me three times a day. After the third day, I took my blood pressure and was surprised to see that there was a decrease of 20 points in the systolic and at least 10 in the diastolic. I have continued to monitor my blood pressure at different times and the decrease has been consistent. My blood pressure usually is quite elevated when I visit my medical doctor.

I am eager to see what it will be on my next visit. I will keep you informed of my progress.

Dr. Born,

Just a quick note to let you know that I just stopped by church and lit a Seven Day candle for you. I thanked God for the fact that you are helping me, and asked him to watch over you, your family and your practice! Thank you for letting me know that someday I will have a healthy body.

“Your talent and encouragement has enabled us to have pets for the very first time. You have truly worked a miracle. . .”

“Yeehaw!!! Tonight was the first night in 3 months that I have been able to play basketball. . .ZERO PAIN. . .”

Dear Dr. Bryan,

I don’t know how to thank you enough. You have helped me too many times to count since I started coming to you, but Sunday you went above and beyond.

I wasn’t able to sleep at all on Saturday night. The ache in my lower back wrapped around to my front and made me sick to my stomach. The only way I was remotely comfortable was standing up and walking. I could not get comfortable and nothing was helping. Ice, Biofreeze, heat, Vitamin B12, aroma therapy, self-massage, crying …nothing was working. I called you Sunday morning feeling awful about disturbing your weekend. You offered me suggestions about how to position myself until I could get into the office and then you met me there! On a Sunday! And you never once made me feel bad that I was infringing on your weekend! You spent a lot of time with me. I am fascinated with muscle testing and that day my muscles had a story to tell. You tested and treated everything you could think of and I felt better immediately. I always appreciate the time you take to explain what is happening within me and why, and what I can do to help myself. I never feel like you’re rushing to get me out the door. You always answer all of my questions.

After our session, I went home and took a five-hour nap! I woke up long enough to realize I felt practically perfect and to write you an email updating you on how I was feeling. The next day it was as though nothing had ever happened.

I went to see you three days later and when you muscle tested me again the tests showed what I could already tell. Everything was right on track.

I don’t know of many health care professionals that I can see when I’m in pain and feel better before I even leave the office. I am extremely grateful that I met you. Your evaluations and treatments, your willingness to accommodate me when I’m in pain, your explanations of my conditions all help to explain why you are an exceptional healer. You are my hero.

“Each Thanksgiving I take the opportunity to reflect on the things I am grateful for, and this year you topped the list. Thank you for all you have done for me throughout the year. I have been treating with you for just over a year now and can’t believe how much better life is without a headache every day. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. You and your staff are the best!!!”

Dear Dr Bryan,

I can’t thank you enough for taking my pain away.

I have had pain for over a year in my lower back, hip and thigh. I’ve been to several medical doctors who gave me drugs and wanted to do cortisone injections in my spine. My sister kept telling me how good you were so I finally listened to her and made an appointment. I felt some relief after the 1st visit. After 6 visits my pain was gone!!!

In the past year, I could (only) walk maybe 10 feet and then have to stop and stretch and try to calm the pain. I just got back from Arizona and Las Vegas and I did lots of walking, never stopping one time. I even slept on an air mattress on the floor and had no pain. My co-workers keep asking me what’s up because I’m always smiling and laughing now… Something I haven’t done in over a year.

Thank you so much!

Dr. Bryan educates, not just treats his patients. He is very knowledgeable and confident in his treatment and his bedside manor is very professional. I highly recommend him.

After frequenting about 4 different chiropractors over many years, Dr. Bryan's office impressed me with the careful explanation of how chiropractic care works and the time he spent researching my unique ailments. He provided a custom report for me, so I can visibly see and read the course of action that makes the most sense. He then took the time to include other options that exist for treatment. While Dr Bryan has a very professional opinion about his practice, he does not stand in the way of me doing what I think is best. As a self described "Life Long Learner", I enjoy connecting with others that continue to hone their skills by adding professional development. And, this is precisely what Dr Bryan does through study, attending workshops, and learning new techniques (he has moved beyond old-school "back-cracking manipulations"!). In terms of communication, his office staff is very 21st century: from Facebook, to twitter, to smiles and hello's; I have had nothing but pleasant experiences. I can even send a text to schedule/change/cancel and appointment. How convenient! Thank you Dr Bryan. You, your family, and your staff are very impressive people.

Dr Bryan Born has taken care of me and many of my loved ones for more than 18 years. I consider him my Primary Care Physician and everyone on staff are always friendly and professional.

Dr. Born was recommended to me by a friend and I couldn't be happier. Although I'm still a new patient, I have already benefited from his gentle technique, patient explanation, and fantastic customer service. I highly recommend him. I have had chronic problems with my low back, shoulder, and neck, and he has been able to address all three.

Over the course of several weeks, I had been suffering from lower back pain and a seemingly incurable UTI ( Urinary Tract Infection). Being frustrated with my M.D., a friend suggested I go to her chiropractor, Dr. Bryan. After my first visit, my UTI symptoms had disappeared and my back pain had greatly improved. Dr. Bryan took to time to explain how my UTI and back pain were connected and it made total sense. It is clear that Dr. Bryan has a genuine concern about his patients by the way he takes the time to teach you about your body, why it hurts, and how he can help. Both Dr. Bryan and his staff are very helpful and friendly. I would recommend Dr. Bryan to anyone.
