Hi Nurse1😊
Before traveling from Asheville, I want to provide more recent comments. This torque treatment gave me almost instant relief. Meaning the tinnitus went from “a million cicadas chirping “ to a much quieter sound. Sometimes it’s gone for periods of time and sometimes returns but the noise is softer or just one ear, and not annoying and easier to ignore. The Dr says some of his patients were permanently released from it, but they never had longcovid! Most ENTs will tell you there is no cure, but dramatic improvement has been possible by these regular adjustments. I did them twice weekly then weekly.
I also got Essential Tremor from LC which also has no cure. But my chiropractor manipulates my lower spine and my tremors are either absent or manageable. A huge life gift!
He is Nationally connected to many Chiropractic Organizations and was a sports chiropractor for professional athletes. Since he is well connected he may be able to recommend a gifted chiropractor near you.
The bad news is he has been out for surgery and doesn’t return until late March. I haven’t had any adjustments in a month and my body has retained his adjustments, but I’m still eager to have him return. No relapse!
His office is open only Monday/Wed/Fri and his receptionist Beth is still there while he’s out. My Humana insurance only requires a $20 copay per visit.
If you call and ask Beth, I am confident the Dr would discuss your situation with a call back. I can also mention you and I connected.

Hope you are well otherwise. I was sick for 3 years 🙃 and adjusting to the different me. (LC also gave me Peripheral Neuropathy)
All we can do is manage or find answers for our specific problems Covid left us with. Soooo many are different; there is no “one cure”.
Mind over matter!
Kind regards,
Barb
Hi Barb! I can’t tell you how much your response means to me.. first of all I have NEVER had another LC person describe their tinnitus as Cicada! That is exactly what mine has been from the beginning in 2022. As a nurse I was familiar with the typical tinnitus usually described by patients as “ringing in the ears” which I never had. The Neurologist at Yale and UNC looked at me like I was crazy when I desperately described what my head felt like. I also have pressure that moves inside my head, so crazy it’s unbelievable.
Thank you for the information about Dr Grossman. I have been to several Chiropractors here but none who had any handle on this issue. So will reach out to that office this week. I am planning a trip to the coast anyway-so it would be worth the trip.
I certainly hope you continue to feel better and that your symptoms subside. I empathize with you about keeping a positive attitude during what has been such a challenging time. Take care and in the case you would like to consider keeping in touch here is my info:
