In Ali's Words:

I had a 47-degree curve in my spine, from a head injury as a child resulting in pretty constant pain and difficulty breathing. I've spent my life addressing this pain with chiropractic, yoga, and massage but always felt that I had to keep it up or I would back slide. NCR changed my life. I am pain free most of the time, can take long walks without my pelvis hurting and the body work Dr Lampers does to accompany the NCR is extraordinarily helpful. I can breath easily from both nostrils and sleep so much better than before. Dr Lampers is kind and gentle, and was fabulous at leading me through my fears of this therapy. I believe she was put here to help people, and the medium she has chosen is perfect for her. I have never felt better and for this I am deeply grateful!

In Andi's Words:

Dr. Lampers and Neuro-Cranial Medicine saved my life. I could barely walk or sit or sleep. The pain was diagnosed as "Chronic Pain" from a previous car accident. Plus I have always suffered from migraine headaches, chronic sinus problems as a result of head trauma from falls during my childhood. My balance was impaired and my quality of life was non-existent. I was sleep deprived and depressed.

I can now breathe better, my chronic hip and back pain are gone, my headaches are improved, and I can sleep through the night without tossing and turning. Dr. Lampers is my angel. The procedure is amazing, easy and energizing as well as non-chemical.

In Ben's Words:

I found out about NCR after a car accident when I was 17, but I didn't have the money, support, and transportation to get treated. I had hoped it would slightly reduce my OCD symptoms, my general anxiety and nervousness, would improve my posture, and any improvement to my face would be welcomed. I finally decided to see Dr. Hillary Lampers, and it was by far the best decision I've ever made - far better than LASIK eye surgery, which dramatically improved my vision. NCR improved the entire quality of life and gave me my sanity back.

MENTAL IMPROVEMENTS

a) I no longer obsess about everything or try to fix things compulsively (like constantly pushing thoughts out of my head, which would sometimes keep me up entire nights). In fact, I don't obsess anymore at all.
b) I feel MUCH calmer, even peaceful, and I relax when I would normally become bored, restless and anxious.
c) My thoughts are more focused; I have an easier time concentrating.
d) My confidence level is much higher; I basically feel more in touch with people and life.

PHYSICAL IMPROVEMENTS

a) My posture looks and feels much better than it used to, and this is something almost all of my friends have noticed.
b) I used to go to sleep every night with mild to moderate upper back pain due to my hunchback posture - the pain is all but completely eliminated.
c) My shoulders are rolled back which allows them to fully move - their movement was restricted during swimming, weight lifting and other activities.
d) I'm more muscular now and I've worked out less; my chest seems to have gotten wider (possibly due to my improved posture).
e) The bones in my skull are significantly less deformed and abnormally shaped (the top of my skull used to bulge out quite a lot), my face is wider, rounded and more symmetrical; my nose is straightened; my ears are up higher on my skull; my face isn't as long.

Needless to say, I'll be going back for a second session! This technique is highly underrated, and understated by even the NCR doctors themselves, and not nearly mainstream enough. It should be a crime against humanity that this procedure isn't known throughout every hospital in the world. It's THAT good!

In Donna's Words:

I first found out about NCR from another patient who has undergone 7 years of continuing NCR sessions.  I have had head pain from occipital headaches for some time now, and also my spine wasn't staying stable enough with other treatments.  Going to a chiropractor several times a week to begin with and even just once weekly was getting to costly, only to have myself to go back out of alignment sometimes immediately afterwards.  I also underwent AtlasPro and Blair Upper cervical which also helped, but STILL wasn't permanent enough.

As a tot, I got kicked in the face by a horse, which almost killed me.  Since then has been other falls, minor car accidents, and the last few years of constant falling and slipping on ice, where I would fall backwards and hit my head everytime.

So the search began, in earnest, for hopefully something that would stabilize me once and for all.

This is the treatment I had done for my headaches, spine and structure. My chiropractic adjustment were just not holding, so I needed something that would ensue great change. This was it. I'm going for more sessions as $$$ permit. This is my first session of 4 days of seeing Dr. Hillary Lampers. If you notice in the after pic of my first session, my facial compression pain is almost gone on the after pic. Not only that, but my nose came a little forward at the top, my eyes are a bit more even, and my palate came forward. I didn't have an increase in height in this session, but it's possible in future sessions. I was actually in pain in the before picture, and the face demeanor reflects it. The after pic shows the improvement in the facial symmetry in FOUR days of the first NCR session. The photographer said in the after picture to look serious, so these are not glamour shots. So I was not pissed off.

The second session was also just as powerful.  My cheekbones and palate came forward more, and my face is already looking like I did when I was younger.  I'm also starting to look more like my sisters, now that my face and head are normalizing.  I also gained an inch in height on the second session, as you can see from face on, where the grid lines go through from the back of my head.  The grid didn't move, I did.  I was standing in the same place exactly as in the before and first session pics.

These are proof that NCR CAN and DOES change the physical structure.    

In Dr. Hillary's Words:

I suffered with head pressure for most of my life. I was a forceps baby, my teeth grew in crooked with an over/under bite, and after a few car accidents here and there, and my head pressure became a daily challenge. As a child, doctors would tell my mother my headaches were just part of growing, or even "imagined".As I became an adult, each week I would need chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture treatments, massage, and daily pain medications to keep my head pressure at bay. (Sound familiar?) The first picture is of me at age 17, 6 years before I found NCR.  Note I don't smile, my teeth were not straight. 

In 1996 I met Dr Dean Howell ND while I was a massage therapist. I consulted with him and decided that I needed NCR. After my very first treatment I was free of head pressure for the first night in many years. After finishing my four-day session, I knew that NCR was going to change my life. My head pressure was fully relieved after 3 sessions, and shortly there after I went to work with Dr Howell as his first personal assistant.

From 1997-2002 I worked on thousands of patients with Dr Howell, performing the specialized pre-treatment massage that Dr Howell trained me in, and assisted each patient through their treatments.

Through NCR my face has completely changed shape, my cheekbones are higher, my head is wider, my bite is wider allowing more space for my teeth, and my nasal bridge is straighter. I have improved posture and I no longer have to wear expensive orthotics in my shoes to support my feet. I did have an upper palette appliance that straightened my upper teeth without braces, thuse allowing the shape of my face to change even more, as you can see in the second picture, which is me just over 20 years older than the first picture. 

Today I am a Naturopathic Doctor because of NCR- I have seen it change the lives of thousands of children, adults, families, and communities, giving new hope to many, who, like me, were felt they would never be helped.

I hope I am can help you experience the great benefits that I have!

Dr Hillary Lampers, NCR Certified Practitioner 

 

In Hedy's Words:

A week before I was scheduled to have sinus surgery, I was extremely ill and had to cancel the surgery. I believe that my sickness was a blessing in disguise because it led me to have NCR instead. I expected to be able to breath better after the treatments (which I immediately could), but never expected to relieve all the other benefits. My eyes felt more open, my thinking was cleared, my posture improved, I felt like I was back to myself. It had never occurred to me how the physical structure of the body could impact so much of my health. I can't even explain how happy I am that I flew all the way across the country to take a chance on this procedure because I really believe it changed my life!

In Jeff's Words:

 I've been suffering from head pressure and sinus problems for years, but had just gotten use to it. The pressure in my sinuses and throughout my head was constant and I was able to just ignore it, but occasionally it kept me from enjoying life as much as I wanted. For the last several months my problems had worsened. I was experiencing more frequent headaches, and my sinuses were so stuffed. I had become a mouth breather. The mouth breathing made it so I wasn't getting enough oxygen, waking up with a soar throat most nights, not being able to smell anything, and the least of my problems, but a bother... constant chapped lips.

After just the first of my four treatments I saw surprising changes. I was able to breathe through my nose again, thus stopping the constant mouth breathing, and my sense of smell had come back. Another thing I must share is that I'm blind and have very little feeling in my feet, thus my balance has been less than perfect for years, but on the second day when I returned for my second treatment, Dr. Hillary pointed out to me that my balance had improved, and after my forth treatment it has markedly improved. Although I originally went to See Dr. Hillary because of my head pressure and sinus issues, which are both no longer a problem, I received more benefits than I realized I would.

When you see my before and after pictures you'll see how that just after four treatments in four days so much has improved. I have more energy, and the adjusting of my skull has somehow given me a sense of well being which had been lacking for a while... I'm even happier than I usually am, and I was a pretty upbeat person to begin with; even my friends have noticed a difference.

I thank my friend for introducing me to Dr. Hillary, and I especially thank Dr. Hillary for changing my life. I wouldn't have ever thought that my life, and body structure could be changed so dramatically after just four days, but the proof is in how I feel, and for anyone reading this, it can be seen in my before and after pictures!

In Karen's Words:

Thank you so much for what you have done for me regarding my health.  I am feeling so much better, especially my neck.  My range of motion is quite good and I have much less pain. I am so pleased with my treatments, and I hope to come back for more. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

In Kathy's Words:

I found Dr. Lampers on the Internet. I was having severe facial pain, pressure and headaches not to mention my neck and shoulders were so tight they felt like bricks. I was told by my dentist that I had TMJ and should have oral surgery. I was thinking there has to be something else. So I started searching the Internet for TMJ, and through some links found Dr. Lampers. I made an appointment.

In the meantime I read everything I could about NCR. I wanted so much for this to work, I was desperate for some relief and didn't want to have surgery or take pain pills. I explained to my mom what I was about to do and asked her to join me through the process as an observer. We both went to orientation and listened as Dr Lampers explained everything. What she said all made complete sense.

My experience with Dr Lampers and NCR has been far better than I ever expected. Within the first session my symptoms were almost gone. The pain and pressure in my head was gone and my neck and shoulders loosened up. I slept for the first time in months.

I have had 3 sessions with Dr Lamers in the last 2 years, and I feel great! I no longer have pain and pressure in my face, I rarely have a headache, the TMJ is practically gone, and I sleep great. I want to Thank you!!!! Dr. Lampers, your NCR process has changed my life for the better. I truly don't know where I would be if I had not have found you.

In Kim's Words:

I went to see Dr. Lampers for my scoliosis. I have had 5 treatment sessions with her and it's amazing how much better I feel. I have more mobility, don't have the pain that I did before, and can even express my feelings more freely. It was as if I was smashed down in a box and now have been released! I know in my heart, Jesus has given Dr Lampers this gift of helping people. I'm so grateful that Dr. Lampers has come into my life, and I look forward to having more NCR sessions!

In Kimberly's Words:

I sat in her treatment room averting my eyes from the white grid on the wall with uniform black squares wreaking havoc on my eyes. Dr. Hillary stated she could not describe for me what I would experience for everyone was different. For the same reason, she could not promise release from the stabbing pain of migraines that had plagued me for the past quarter century. Migraines that crippled me with pain up to six-days a week - sent me home from work when a cookie offered at lunch-break unexpectedly contained artificial sweetener and blind-sided me with pain 20-minutes later; kept me in bed on Saturday mornings when my family went out to play; caused me to medicate and then grin-and-bear-it through a dinner date to not miss a rare opportunity to be alone with my spouse.

Medical doctors had offered all the pain relief medications at their disposal and thereby greatly reduced the intensity and duration. Chiropractors had worked for years to alleviate the chronic tension in my neck and spine and decrease frequency. An Acupuncture Doctor worked diligently without notable improvement. A Naturopath ran tests and discovered hormonal imbalances which, when treated, also reduced frequency to a couple of episodes a week that I was successfully medicating away to continue daily functioning. But the source of the stabbing pain behind my right eye continued to elude everyone.

During orientation, the previous week, Hillary showed me a picture of the bone in the center of my skull she would be adjusting. I stopped her as I spotted, what appeared to me to be, the back of my eye-socket and asked, "Is it possible you will somehow relieve the pressure HERE with what you are proposing?" She watched me recoil from the sliver of sunlight coming through the window and change seats before she reiterated that she could make no promises but that would be the hope.

That glimmer of hope is what I coupled with my desperation and carried into that first appointment for what proved to be an adjustment of a lifetime. A whole load of courage is what I added for the following three days to submit myself to trust this peaceful, compassionate and competent woman to continue the work we had started together.

I spent nearly two-days in shock after my first treatment where my skull broke loose from decades of tension. Somehow this tiny lady had used a little balloon to generate the pressure of what, to me, felt like the cleat of a 250-pound soccer player slowly grinding his heal into the side of my face until my skull gave way. Yet, in that moment, excruciating as it was, I knew I was profoundly changed - for the light no longer caused me to cringe. The exposed bulb in the simplest of lamps no longer held the power of Kryptonite to bring me to my knees in fear of another migraine.

The glimmer of hope grew to the beginnings of a dream for what the second forty-years of my life might look like without chronic pain. Thank you, Hillary, for sharing your gift of healing with me.

In Shana's Words:

I originally came to see Dr. Lampers because I was unable to breath through my nose. I had exhausted all healing possibilities with the exception of surgery when I was referred to Dr. Hillary. The results were life changing. I immediately was able to breathe through one nostril which was such a gift after years of not being able to breathe through either nostril. In addition, I felt like the best version of myself. I felt happier, calmer, more at peace.

I continued with a second treatment because I got such relief and healing from the first one. After the second treatment I was able to breath through BOTH nostrils!! I almost cried from happiness of feeling breath through my nose! I also could smell for the first time in three years! Everything smelled so incredible... even my daughter’s dirty diapers!

Physically, however, is where I was able to see the results. My face was softer, prettier even. Gone was what my daughter called “Mean Mommy”; the clenched jaw and slanted eyebrows. My bite changed. My gait changed. I began to grow taller at 37! The scoliosis I had suffered from for over 20 years was unwinding!

I have had three treatments with Dr. Hillary and couldn’t be happier with the results. My original goal of breathing through my nose: met. That was enough. As a bonus, however, I have grown one whole inch (yeah!), my posture is AMAZING (I love my butt and my tummy pooch is gone) and I look 10 years younger!

The results from NCR encompass comprehensive healing of the entire body. I not only feel amazing but I can see the results every time I look in the mirror. Thank you so much Dr. Hillary!!!

In Sierra's Words:

This testimonial was written by Danielle, Sierra's mother.  It is long, but tells a good story of how many children with scoliosis are treated, and how NCR is s very successful treatment for it. 

My daughter was diagnosed with scoliosis on July 27, 2009, when she was 11 years old as part of a normal yearly examination. At that time her thoracic curve was 29 degrees, her lumbar curve was 45 degrees and her pediatrician referred her to see an orthopedic physician. He told us that her curves would continue to worsen, that nothing could be done to prevent it and that when they reached 50 degrees surgery was our only option! When I asked if there were any non-surgical interventions that we could try and I was told "no" with an eye roll and we were scheduled for a follow-up appointment in 4 months. I left broken hearted but convinced that there must be another way to help my child. We saw two other physicians who told me that the first doctor was right and we should do what he said with only a minimal examination. None of the three doctors gave me any hope of alternatives to watching and waiting then eventual surgery.
We continued to follow up with the orthopedic surgeon over the next year while her x-rays continued to show curve progression until July 2010 when he told us that her thoracic curve was now 44 degrees and her lumbar curve was now 52 degrees and since she had passed the magic 50 degree number it was now time for surgery which he wanted me to schedule over her upcoming Christmas break of 2010....
At this time I was working as a pediatric nurse and knew the impact of surgery especially a surgery of this extent so I was still desperate to find another way. My daughter was very active and was not having any pain, nor were her curves noticeable or impacting her life in any way so I would not put her through such an invasive surgery to possibly prevent a future problem. Through a lot of research I found very little options, some people recommend bracing but most do not, mostly these children are just told to wait until surgery is necessary.
In October 2010 I found out about an organization called the CLEAR Institute which is a group of chiropractors who claim to have a non-surgical treatment option for scoliosis. I felt very lucky at the time to find out that the only CLEAR Institute chiropractor in my state was only 5 minutes from our house so we quickly began treatment with him thrilled to finally have found an alternative.
My daughter endured 10 months of very difficult and painful visits which included being put into a scoliosis chair that used large straps that would pull her head up and her curves in the opposite direction in an attempt to help her body to know where it should be which hurt her a great deal. She was also expected to do 2 hours of his prescribed exercises at home every day which included rolling on her back on a large and hard roll of Styrofoam and standing on a balancing disk with 10 pounds of weights on her head and up to 25 pounds of weights around her waist. She was no longer able to participate in any of the activities that she loved or even in PE at school. He controlled everything she did from what activities she could do, what position she slept in, how she sat, how she stood, and what she ate. She was miserable and to make it worse I was not able to get accurate information from him about her progress, he would give me conflicting information, be evasive when confronted about it and would rarely give me any written reports that I requested, and it was never clear what if any curve correction was happening. During the 10 months she went there my daughter began to have a lot of pain, missed a lot of school and was miserable. It was becoming more and more clear that this was not the answer we were looking for but thinking that surgery was our only option I felt we had no other choice but to keep going.
After a very terrible day with this chiropractor I had a random conversation with a man I had never met before at a lunch table that happened to lead to scoliosis. When he told me about his friend Dr. Hillary Lampers who was a naturopath who had some success treating scoliosis with NCR. I knew nothing about NCR at the time but was quickly interested and within hours was researching it with excitement. I spoke to several patients who had received the treatment who were happy with their results and in depth with Dr. Lampers and was sure this was something I wanted to try so I then presented the idea to my daughter who was 13 at the time. I explained to her that I wanted her to see this doctor who was going to put a balloon up her nose but that I really thought it could help her and to my shock she said "ok". She would have done anything to not go back to the chiropractor!
On October 20, 2011 she did her first NCR session. She was nervous but willing, and after the first day she said it wasn't as bad as she thought it would be. Now my daughter has had 4 NCR treatments and she always looks forward to going.
After having NCR treatments my daughter now is mostly pain free, is riding horses again, and is involved in martial arts but most importantly she is happy. She is no longer being constantly reminded of her scoliosis by painful doctor visits, painful exercises and strict guidelines and her curves have reduced a visible amount.
I feel very blessed to have found NCR. Hillary is an angel who came into our lives and did what everyone told me was impossible, she helped my baby, she saved her from a very painful surgery, she helped her to be a very happy and healthy 14 year old who can now go weeks without even thinking about scoliosis.. she can now just be a kid!!

In Steve's Words:

 For over 3 years I suffered with chronic back pain that started after a trip to the gym. It felt as if the muscles on my right side were in this big knot.  I decided to take a week off from the gym and a week turned into month, which turned into a year and now 3 years later and after getting physical therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic, and the MD's and still no relief.

I learned about Dr. Lampers from a friend who had seen her, so I decided to go to the free information night. I then scheduled an appointment for the next day. I was not only treated with one Doctor but two, and not just for 15-20 minute session but these ladies spent really quality time with me.

I have to say that even after the first treatment I was able to breath out of the left side of my nose for the first time in years!! After the 3rd treatment I felt my shoulders rolling back and everything coming back into alignment. This was an amazing experience for me. I have been in constant pain for over 3 years and now it was almost gone. I really feel things moving in my body, it's just incredible.

These ladies not only spent quality time with me but they really cared.

In Yvonne's Words:

I feel I was a perfect candidate for NCR.

I started off in life with a 15% scoliosis. I also took a bad fall at 10 and 21, but seemed to be fine as I was pretty physically active. At 37, I started court reporting, which is very intense, but very sedentary. I started going through several things; tennis elbow, thoracic outlet syndrome, sciatica in hip, TMJ, neck and shoulder blade pain. Then in February 2007, I had a car accident and had to have surgery on my left foot. After a year long ordeal with surgery, I had a cast, boot, and physical therapy. This was the straw that broke the camel's back. It put my body so out of whack I couldn't correct it anymore with chiropractic or massage. By December I was taking three Aleve 3x a day, so in January I decided to try NCR with Dr Lampers.

On the first day my neck, shoulders, back, and hips, were all very sensitive to touch. I was in real pain. When I came back the second day I was still sore all over but after the procedure, when I walked out, I couldn't believe it, I had absolutely no pain, none! It is still amazing to me how fast it worked. I really know that this straightened out my structure and took the pressure off of all my muscles trying to pull it back into place. I did a couple follow-ups just to make sure it stayed in place.

It is now two and a half years later and I still have no pain, can do my job, and my mental attitude is better. For anyone who has had a history like mine, I would definitely recommend this procedure.

In Zach's Words:

As an eight year veteran of the USA Cycling Team and two-time World Championship Medalist, I continually battled with various leg, back, and neck pains. Chronic bronchitis and pronated foot issues forced me to seek alternatives to standard physical therapies and food supplements.

After discovering NCR, my ability to stay healthy, recover quickly and train longer was significantly enhanced. Discovering NCR has changed my life completely and I feel like my ultimate goals are more achievable than ever before! I highly recommend this treatment for athletes, especially those at the highest level of competition.
