The Watertown Chiropractor to see - Chiropractor Watertown

Introducing our Office Manager,
Colleen Trainor-Perez

I was introduced to chiropractic care back in 1998. I suffered from migraine headaches. I would have three migraines a week without fail. I would have to take a pain killer in order to get through my day. I also had to use another drug and hope I didn't have to go to the emergency room. (Which happened more than not.)

I worked around the corner from Trevens Specific Chiropractic and thought why not try it. I was sick and tired of being sick. I was very skeptical!!! I would remember that both Dr. William Trevens and Dr. Shelly Trevens were very patient with me. After some time, my migraines subsided to maybe one every other week and then the next thing I knew I was having one migraine per month. I really started living life now. I slept well, I was happier, I was smiling again. (My husband was thrilled). I started exercising, eating better and best of all losing weight properly.

What more could I ask for? Then I noticed other changes in my body. My sinus infections were gone and they still are. Then my allergies were gone; I can't believe I still don't take any medicine for allergies. I had suffered from allergies since I was a child. Now the amazing thing happens. When my son was in pre-school they wanted to put him on ridilin for ADHD and Dr. Trevens explained to me that he felt Specific Chiropractic Care might be able to help my son. So I had him checked. My son also had middle ear fluid build-up and many earaches. At this time my husband and I had decided to go ahead and put tubes in Dylan's ears for middle ear fluid which was causing a speech a delay. Well, Dylan had his first adjustment prior to the appointment for the insert of tubes. And when he got up after the adjustment he said to me "Mom, I can HEAR!"�(Thinking about this makes me cry).  He said my name MOM for the first time very clear. It was awesome! I realized that there was something to this upper cervical care, so I cancelled his appointment for the tubes. My son also has upper truck disorder. Which meant he was unable to sit on the floor and play checkers crossed legged he had to lie on his side and play. After a few more months of upper cervical care I notice his posture was improving. He began to sit on the floor and hold his back up instead of lying down on the floor. His spine had shifted on his own. His body was healing itself. And his posture is great now at 13.

With such great results I couldn't lose, so I had my daughter, who at the time was 18 months old, added to the family care plan for wellness. She is now 11 years old. She has never had antibiotics, or cold medicine. She doesn't have allergies, she has never had the flu or earaches nor does she get headache or miss school due to illness.

P.S. I recently made a career change from my previous job of 15 years. I was an office manager at another type of doctor's office and it was time to make a change. One day at my appointment with Dr. Trevens I found out that they were looking for an office manager. What an exciting change for me! I come to work with an excitement and joy in helping people that I have never experienced before. I started working here January 2008 and I couldn't be happier. And I now have my husband finally coming back again to upper cervical care and he's noticed big changes in his body from his first adjustment. I hope when you read this you get a sense of love and honesty. I grew up in Watertown, Ma. And I am now raising my family here. Please call and feel free to ask for me.

My hobbies include bike riding, walking, swimming, winter skiing, hip-hop, self defense, helping my husband run his business and being a mom.

Introducing our Billing Specialist,
Kristi Mollica

At the age of 12, I started to get frequent and very painful headaches. Over the course of my teenage years, I was put on different medications, prescription and over-the-counter, and nothing helped. When I was a senior in college, I woke up one morning and couldn't turn my neck. Out of desperation I called for an appointment at a chiropractic office (I lived in NY at the time). The chiropractor helped my neck, and I realized that it also helped with my headaches. Two years later, now living in Watertown, MA, I decided it was time to re-visit chiropractic. I didn't know how lucky I actually was to be in Watertown, as that is how I discovered Upper Cervical Care at Trevens Specific Chiropractic. In March of 1999 I became a patient of Dr. Trevens'. I initially went in for my headaches, but soon discovered that a lot of my problems were also resolving. I had chronic stomach issues, sinus irritation, low back pain (I had a constant clicking in my back that was extremely irritating) and trouble sleeping on my back (I know that sounds weird!). After a few months, my headaches started to get better again. After a few more months, I realized that I wasn't popping a Pepcid AC after every meal, and as time went on I stopped having stomach issues all together. I used to fear being out in public, because I was always afraid that I would need to find a bathroom quickly, or be sick at the wrong time! Thanks to Specific Chiropractic, I no longer have those fears. And also thanks to chiropractic, I don't take any medications, over- the -counter or otherwise.

In January of 2001, I became the Office Manager for Dr. Bill and Dr. Shelly! It was definately a "right place, right time" situation. I was complaining to Dr. Bill one day about my job (I had just fallen down in a puddle of muddy water in my business suit while cleaning a rental car, and was fed up with it!), and asked him if he knew anyone in Watertown that was looking for someone to hire. I boasted that I could do anything if given the chance! A few visits later, Dr. Bill asked if I would be interested in coming to work for them. Their current office manager had just left, and Dr. Shelly was pregnant at the time. It didn't take me long to realize it was a good fit, and I have been working with them ever since. I am now a stay-at-home mom, and have been blessed with the ability to do my job from home! Colleen is the new Office Manager, and I have become the Billing Specialist, utilizing my six years of experience with the insurance companies to help keep things running smoothly.

As I said, I am now a mother of a happy, healthy 17 month old. I attribute a good deal of his health to Specific Chiropractic. Adrian was born on 9/3/06, and was first checked for subluxation the day after his birth! He received his first adjustment at two weeks old, and we both get checked every week. On average, Adrian needs about 1 adjustment per month....sometimes less. As a result, he so far has not had anything worse than a cold. No ear infections, no trips to the ER in the middle of the night, etc. My friends consider me lucky, as they have all had their young children on several medications already due to routine illness. I spread the chiropractic message whenever I can. Because Adrian's immune system is stronger through chiropractic, his body has been better able to adapt to his environment. As for the rest of my family, my husband has been a wellness patient since 2002. He has no major issues, and continues to be a very healthy individual. My nephew had chronic ear infections for four years, and after one adjustment with Dr. Bill he never had another one again. Since then, my sister has also sought Specific Chiropractic in NY where they live, and has had great results with her neck pain.

I can't say enough about how much Trevens Specific Chiropractic means to me and my family. It brought me out of a life where I was always in pain, and fearful of being away from home. It has improved my family's overall health and wellbeing, and has added so much to our lives!
