Upper Back Pain -- After waiting over a month for my right upper back pain to subside, I decided to seek treatment for the persistent soreness which didn't seem to be improving with the usual home treatments. A quick movement had caused the injury, which was preventing me from participating in martial arts without pain. After my treatment with Dr. Bomben, I was able to resume my daily activities and sports without any discomfort. Dr. Bomben is very knowledgeable about the mechanics of injuries and a wide range of therapeutic methods. He takes the time to correctly diagnose the injury and treat it while spending time teaching how to continue with stretching and treatment exercises at home. Anyone with sports related injuries would benefit from his services and expertise.

When I came to Dr.Bomben, I had been having sharp hamstring pain for the better part of a month or more. Initially, it just flared up when trying to do my boot camp exercises or when playing soccer. Eventually, it was painful just sitting at my desk or walking from one room to the next. My boot camp instructor recommended Dr. Bomben. I was not familiar with ART, but was willing to give just about anything a try. Dr. Bomben dug in hard on the very first visit to attack and break up the scar tissue that had formed over a lifetime of playing soccer. Almost immediately, I was able to return to my normal level of intensity. During subsequent visits with Dr. Bomben, he really listened to where I was telling him that I was still having some pain, even when it didn’t make sense to him (or when I pulled a muscle in my calf which became a more pressing need than my hamstring). He focused on those spots that I was identifying. Eventually, on my last visit with him, I could pinpoint the remaining pain to one small area on my hamstring, and Dr. Bomben put “the thumb” to work and got way down into the deep tissue to work it out. My leg has felt great ever since then. When I hear the word “chiropractor”, I think spinal adjustments and loud popping noises. Dr. Bomben’s ART treatment is nothing like that. I highly recommend Dr. Bomben for any deep muscle pain. He is an athlete himself, so he knows how frustrating it is when your muscles prevent you from doing something, and he perseveres until you are back out there doing what you love.

Being a swimmer, I was disappointed when my primary doctor told me I had to stop swimming for an extended period to give my shoulder some time to heal. I was experiencing pain in my shoulder which would wake me at night. The exact location of the pain was very difficult to locate as the pain was radiating in my shoulder, upper back, and arm. Dr. Bomben did not seem concerned with time as he moved my arm and shoulder in different positions to try and pin point the pain. I appreciated his patience and true desire to figure out what was bothering me. He is truly committed to his patients' well being and listens when concerns are shared and offers clear guidance and explanations. For me, he determined that I needed to do some stretching and strengthening of my shoulder. He clearly explained and modeled the exercises and stretches. He did more than just adjust my shoulder and back, he gave me true care. Today, I swim pain free. Thank you Dr. Bomben!

Dr. Bomben helped me heal from a chronic inter-scapular pain that had plagued me for years. It was so painful that I had to lay on tennis balls to get even a few moments of relief at one point. I saw other chiropractors, but I never totally healed the stress injury until Dr. Bomben started working on me on a regular basis. His deep tissue technique combined with simple exercises that he recommended helped so, so much!

I was nursing a groin injury for over six months that was preventing me from exerting maximum effort during my training. I received various diagnoses from physicians, trainers, and "specialists", none of which was correct. It took one forty-five minute session with Dr. Bomben for him to find the cause of my ailment. Dr. Bomben's treatments enabled me to get back to training at optimal levels without feeling pain, as well as recovering faster from exhausting workouts so as to keep training at peak levels day in and day out. Dr. Bomben is a unique practitioner in that not only does he treat your problem, he teaches you what he is doing and why he is doing it. This allows you to recover faster by doing some of the same techniques he taught you. He even went as far as inviting my wife to treatments with me to teach her the techniques so she could do them to me at home and allow for even faster recovery. There is no doubt in my mind that I will continue to see Dr. Ross Bomben as I continue to exercise and train my body and would highly recommend him to any person trying to fix an ailment, prevent injury and speed recovery.

I had a old injury that was acting up from a sparing match. I was referred to Dr.Bomben and in just a few short visits along with the stretches he prescibed I felt better than before. Besides being a great sports Doctor he is a true gentleman.

I went for treatment for lower back pain triggered by heavy deadlifts and squats. Dr Bomben's treatments have proven invaluable in reducing the pain and discomfort and helping me regain my strength back. He is an absolute tomb of knowledge, and a clear expert in his field. He has strong genuine interest to help restore his patients to their fullest well being. I highly recommend Dr Bomben to anyone seeking chiropractic treatment of any kind.

Dr. Bomben is currently treating me for two torn rotator cuffs. It is a 12-year-old sports injury compounded by recent re-injury. He specified the MRI technician he wanted reading the MRI report, he referred me to TWO outside specialists, and personally spoke with them about my condition, and has been following up via e-mail and phone to answer my questions and concerns. Because of Dr. Bomben's communication style and follow-up, I am better educated and have deeper knowledge of my injury and my options and have come to understand how important my own actions are in reaching realistic recovery goals. The conversation is not "fix me" with Dr. Bomben, it is more "help me heal". Is it possible to have an ego-less Doctor?

Dr. Bomben is really passionate about his work. He has helped with my knee and finding out the REAL problem. You can tell he is really concerned by his follow up. He has also helped with some back problems when it was bothering me from work. Highly recommend.

I went for treatment with Dr. Bomben due to a sport specific foot injury. I work in the wellness industry and have a general knowledge of the body and its systems, so I would only go to someone I trust and respect as a valuable, honest, and intelligent source. Dr. Bomben is all of these. Within a short period of time of examining my issue, he diagnosed, treated, and formulated a comprehensive treatment plan that has enabled me to function normally, painfree. Dr. Bomben has an incredible knowledge of the body including soft and hard tissue, metabolically, and nutritionally as well. I recommend and refer all of my own cliente base to him frequently.

Having competed at the international level in some of the biggest stages, I appreciate my body working for me. But nothing is more discouraging than losing competition and training time while being injured. Now as a working professional, I am grateful for you piecing me back together so I can always push myself and maintain that sense of vitality I get from training.

I have been doing acrobatic dance for a long time. I have also been practicing massage and teaching it for a long time. It is very important to me to keep my body in fine tune. I was rear ended a month ago and my body was thrown off big time. Dr. Bomben went exactly to the place that needed attention. After just one visit,I was well onto the road to a quick recovery. I was amazed at his ability to empathize (as if he could see into my body) and go right to the places that needed attention in me. I am his devoted patient now.

I have been suffering from neck and upper back pain for over 2 years now due to a car accident and stressful lifestyle and Dr. Bomben has provided much needed relief not only through his chiropractic care but genuine interest in my overall health. He is always willing to work with my busy schedule. I am sleeping better and living a much healthier happier lifestyle since I started seeing Dr. Bomben. I would highly recommend his friendly and thorough care to anyone who wants to feel better fast!

I am a runner and Dr. Bomben has helped keep me on the road and off the injured reserve list. I've had a couple of overuse injuries that he was able to diagnose and fix quickly. He administered deep tissue massage therapy and stretching. He also taught me some strengthening exercises that I could do on my own. I would recommend Dr. Bomben to anyone suffering from injury or overuse aches and pains. He will help you!

I suffered from back pain off and on for many years. I had pursued chiropractic and massage to relieve my pain and had seen 2 prior chiropractors. My pain had prevented me from resting well and driving comfortably. Seeing Dr Bomben has virtually eliminated my pain and given me exercises to do on my own to enhance the results. Dr Bomben is different because he focuses so much time with me each appointment to be sure that my issue is being fully addressed. He also has a rich background that allows him to give insight on my nutrition and other areas of health and fitness.

I DONT KNOW HOW TO RE-ITERATE THIS ENOUGH, but finding a doctor who has FIRST hand experience is so important!! Book knowledge alone just doesn't cut it! In addition, he still trains!! In order for me to trust ANY fitness professional, you must practice what you preach, and you must have first hand experience! I am a serious track & field athlete. I HAD micro tears in my hamstring that has been slowing me down for a while. Dr. Bomben, who I'd meet while working out one day on the track, offered his expertise with confidence. After one session with him I was able to compete the next day in a USA sanctioned track meet in Elgin, TX and put up some good numbers as it was my first track meet in three years. (1st in long jump, 6th place 200m) I highly recommend Dr. Bomben!

For 3 or 4 weeks I had severe neck pain that felt like whiplash. I didn't have medical insurance at the time so I was only seeing a massage therapist and using Icy Hot. The severity of the pain prevented me from sleeping at night so I finally sought out Dr. Bomben. I went to a chiropractor 10 years ago without much success, but Dr. Bomben's treatment helped me considerably! The amount of time he spent with me was much greater than what most doctors devote to their patients. He also gave me some helpful remedies that I was able to do at home. I was able to sleep much better at night and it was refreshing to feel better without the use of medication. It works!

When I scheduled my first appointment with Dr. Bomben, I was experiencing low back pain that just would not go away. It had worsened to a point where it interfered with my ability to work, exercise, sit, or even get out of bed in the morning. Dr. Bomben quickly and accurately diagnosed it as a disc problem. His treatment of exercise and massage had great and immediate results. Thanks to Dr. Bomben, I was able to return to my daily routine within weeks without medication or invasive treatment.

I had soreness in neck and upper/mid back for about a week before seeking treatment. I tried stretching but it wasn't enough. It was starting to limit my exercise/working out, hiking, and walking. Dr. Bomben's treatment and home exercises got me back were I was able to resume life without any discomfort or pain in one week. He was a lot more detailed than previous physicians. His treatments are not just to relieve a pain, but for a healthier lifestyle.
