Best Chiropractor in the US, and possibly in the world!
Dr. Glenn first treated me in about 1979 or 1980, when I had a slipped disc in my lower back - thanks to working as a waitress carrying dinner trays that were too heavy for my 5'3" 103 lb. body, while I was going to college. I was in such bad shape that Dr. Glenn was afraid to take an xray. I could crawl backwards and lie on my right side in the fetal position. I couldn't stand, sit or lie down with my legs extended. He saved my life.... and after only a few treatments, I could walk, sit,recline, and drive, almost pain-free. Using heat and cold as prescribed by Dr. Glenn, and doing the exercises he recommended, I was pain free after about three months of treatment.
My lower back problem is chronic, and flares up from time to time. Fortunately, it has never been as severe as that first instance. However, I have sought chiropractic help in New York, Florida, Nevada, Washington State, Paris, Bombay, Athens and Moscow over the years. A couple were bone crunchers who left me in more pain than I had been in when I arrived at their offices; some used various kinds of heat or other lamps or vibration machines that didn't provide any relief; one jerked my head and neck around with so much force that I saw stars for several days; and one wanted me to hang by my knees in a birdcage-like contraption. None had a drop table, so hands on provided little relief.
My insurance for the last 6 years has not covered Dr. Glenn. It does provide for a chiropractor in Redondo Beach. I made an appointment once, about 4 years ago, but cancelled it. I followed Dr. Glenn's hot/cold and exercise regimin and "healed myself." These episodes were not severe, just a warning that something worse could happen if I weren't realy careful. If something "bad" happens, I have Dr. Glenn's phone number handy. I know that his "hands-on, Palmer method, drop table," works for me - and he will be the only chiropractor that I will ever trust to touch me again!

Dear Dr. Fischel,
I had a car accident in 1997.
It was a very light accident. Because I felt just little bit uncomfortable on neck and jaw when I had the accident, I forgot about the accident very soon. However, I have felt fatigue heavily since then. I thought it would be because I was tired and stressed but I couldn’t connect those symptoms with the car accident.
In 1998 I had really strong panic-attack. The pain and dread was too horrible to describe it. Even now I can say the panic attack was the most horrible experience in my whole life.
After that panic attack I couldn’t go out even mart for grocery by myself. I could go out only with my husband. In case I had to go out I always check the near location of emergency room in hospital. I had to quit my job and social life.
I had various problems. I felt serious tiredness and weakness all the time. I have pain on all part of right side of my body such as elbow, wrist, knee, ankle, and foot. I thought my left brain was something wrong.
My stomach and intestine were hyper sensitive. I couldn’t swallow food well. I eat a couple of bites and 40 minutes later I bite a few again. Every time I chewed 30 times. I was always hungry and full at the same time. I was scared when somebody invited me for dinner.
I felt nausea, dizziness, tension, nerves, and I had very often hyperventilation syndrome especially when I make telephone call.
I examined endo-scope, thyroid gland, visited many times of orient doctors, finally psychiatrist. When I went to psychiatrist, they gave us behavior therapy that helped me a lot concerning panic attack. I could control my tension and dreadness a lot better. But my various pain and weakness were still remained and I didn’t know why.
The reason I go to chiropractic doctor is dizziness. My dizziness is getting worse and worse. I couldn’t stand up properly. I feel like riding roller costar even I was laying on the bed. Finally I couldn’t read a book. I couldn’t concentrated anything at all
The dizziness was so terrible I always hold my head by hand for years so I didn’t know that my neck is actually not moving properly
I have suffered for 12 years from 27 to 39. I hardly remember how I was before I had the car accident.
I have received this chiropractic treatment by Dr. Fischel for only a couple of months but I feel totally “new born”. Every symptom was disappeared or improved. I am full of energy. My husband calls me “new bone”. I can start even a part job. Unbelievable!! I have thought life is very difficult maybe not that much difficult that I thought. I am not a preaching person at all but this time I really want to help people.
I love and thank to my husband and family they always support me. Of course thanks a lot to my genius Dr. Fischel and all staff. I am going to pray for you always.
As I write above I am not preaching person at all. I feel awkwardness when I meet the person who talking about god and church all the time but only this time I should tell that during the time I have suffered I became a strong believer. I am not sure I am a good Christian but I do believe in God. I thanks to God everything that I have gone through and being with me.

After visiting Dr. Fischel for several months I notice that I am experiencing a heightened sense of well being. I do not get as tired as I used to even after a hard day at work and school. I have been able to remain healthy through the cold season while others around me are getting colds. I also noticied that my bowel movements became more regular and I feel more relaxed even in stressful situations!
Thank you

Dear Dr. Fischel
For years I observed my posture becoming more hunched over and had more difficulty holding my head up high. After "hanging" around you, I feel easily able to stand straight and strong! What has surprised me even more is now I sleep better and enjoy much better digestions and a flatter stomach to boot!
The spine really does create whole body health - with the help of a compassionate, talented doctor. That's you!
With gratitude,

Hello Doctor Fischel,
In 1998 I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, which is a psychological condition, that consists of social, emotional and cognitive dysfunction. Such problems have diminished greatly in recent years with my chiropractic care. These problems affected my ability to go to a chiropractor initially.
It was uncomfortable to have direct physical contact with the chiropractor, but it is best to get the adjustment especially when you are feeling ill, after an accident, a fall, or a trauma. The functions of the body will improve and recovery from illnesses and injuries will also occur more readily. Besides it will get emotionally less uncomfortable to get the adjustments needed after a series of sessions of adjustments. I encourage you to come to the chiropractor and bring your children, it helps me tremendously.
Sincerely,
DP

I definitely feel the change in my breathing; I was never able to breath through my left nostril even after deviated septum surgery. I am much more aware of my spine and have better posture. My left hip has almost no pain as compared to limping at times due to pain. Thank you for taking such good care of me. You are not only a great chiropractor but a great person too.

I do a lot for my health: yoga, swimming, resistance training, but my weekly sessions with Dr. Tebbe have made the biggest difference for my health. I work in the restaurant industry and my body takes a beating everyday. Dr. Tebbe always gives me the perfect “tune-up” to keep me going. After going through the frustrations of having back problems at a young age I feel really lucky to have sound the care of a Chiropractor I can really trust. I have never felt better.

Dear Dr. Glen & Shelley:
As we came into the office today for another Monday morning start-up, everyone was complaining of aches & stiffness from a weekend of leisure – some played sports and some were couch potatoes. It occurred to me that I’d had an active Saturday and a lounging, TV dominant Sunday. But I realized that I felt great today. Full of energy. No pain in my neck or back, a little restricted on head rotation, though. And I realized that I’d never thought of needing an adjustment during all of last week! My last adjustment was on Thursday, Feb. 12th, just after Dr. Glen’s dental appointment during his lunch break. Whatever we did that day worked wonders for me. Maybe it was just having a relaxed time chatting as well as the adjustment itself. Whatever.
Thanks for the two weeks of better health!
See you soon.
John
P.S. Please make a standing appointment for me after each of Dr. Glen’s dental appointments.
Only kidding ;-)
