Novera: Headache Center: Reviews
Fantastic experience: NOVERA is an absolute miracle! This headache center took away my 13 year old daughter’s migraines. Before this headache center she was constantly missing school because of her headaches. Ever since we’ve been going to Novera her migraines are completely gone and she can finally live her life without the constant fear of migraines.
Fantastic experience: This Headache Center has truly changed my life. As someone who has struggled with migraines their whole life Novera taught me how to maintain and prevent them. Without Novera I would still struggle with Migraines multiple times a week.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Taves is incredible!!! I've struggled with migraines my entire life, and I've finally found a Doctor who truly cares about a treatment that works. Life changing!!!! Wish there was a higher rating than 5 stars.
Fantastic experience: Couldn’t recommend this place enough. I used to struggle with 2-3 headaches a week. Dr.Tave’s treatment has helped me reduce headaches and create a healthier lifestyle. Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: Cannot speak highly enough of this place. Novera changed my life. Their holistic approach to my care has me thinking in totally different ways about my health and wellness habits. I came to Novera because of whiplash and headaches relating to a rear-end accident. While working on my neck recovery, Kelsey helped me identify three other health issues I was unaware of and am now getting help for! I was so sad when my appointments ended because going there was really physical, but also spiritual therapy in a way. Will be taking lessons learned from there with me for the rest of my life. Thank you, Novera!
Fantastic experience: My 9-year-old daughter has struggled with severe headaches for over 5 years. The many doctors, medications, and coping techniques had failed to help her. This fall, things took a severe turn for the worse and she was completely debilitated by severe migraines. She spent her days in bed in a dark and quiet room, unable to play, do school work, play her instruments, or do just about anything a 9-year-old should be able to do. Then I heard about Novera and Dr. Taves’ approach to treatment. With just a few treatments we saw improvements. After two months of treatment, she has been 100% headache free for weeks! I honestly never thought she would get to the point where she felt completely pain free. After years of dealing with severe headaches, she is a functional, happy, and active child who isn’t limited by pain. We are so thankful for Dr. Taves and his medication-free approach to healing!
Fantastic experience: I am a believer and a success story for having a decrease in the amount and intensity of migraine headaches since I began my monthly sessions at Novera, over two years ago. The staff is dedicated and highly skillful. If you suffer from migraines, don't wait any longer. Go!!
Fantastic experience: Novera has been a lifesaver for my chronic migraines. Each and every provider and staff member is compassionate and caring. The office environment is so welcoming and soothing. And so important, the treatment is effective! Thank you Novera for giving me relief and hope after decades of suffering ❤️
Fantastic experience: Novera and the therapists there changed my life. I've suffered with migraines and extreme jaw tension/ jaw clinching since I was 10 years old. I tried everything and even considered jaw surgery and voluntary (unnecessary) dental work. I've missed school, work, family events, I've suffered on vacations, and struggled most of my life with pain. After only a handful of in person treatments at Novera, I have more mobility than I ever have. I can move my neck and jaw freely, I am not grinding my teeth at night and the tension I carry in my shoulders has decreased dramatically. I haven't had a migraine in weeks and my headaches have almost disappeared as well. The most noticeable change for me is the jaw tension that has been released from my life. I've never felt so good; I'm so happy a non invasive treatment was the answer to my life long headaches, migraines, and jaw tension. Thank you Novera!
Fantastic experience: 8 months ago I was looking at wheelchairs...now I'm driving!!! I hadn't driven for over two years due to constant vertigo, couldn't go anywhere with bright lights, and had to coordinate with family and friends to arrange rides to all my various appointments and errands. And things were just getting worse. It was getting hard to walk-I had to use a cane, and my husband had begun looking into wheelchairs for a few years down the road. And then my husband stumbled across Dr. Taves' podcast on vestibular migraines. As I listened to it, I dissolved into tears; I wasn't alone in my symptoms and, best of all, there was someone out there willing to listen and actually try to help me. After a virtual appointment, during which he gave me my first exercises, I almost immediately started noticing a lessening of pain. After a single in-person appointment with him, my Chiari migraines stopped almost entirely. And then, after a full week of daily appointments, that horrible, unceasing dizziness WENT AWAY. I was again able to do all the little things I had missed in life: go down a water slide with my sons, watch Top Gun 2 with my husband, walk through a brightly lit grocery store. But, most exciting of all, I now own my own car and can run my own life again! I can never thank Dr. Taves enough for giving me back an independent life! It is an indescribable gift. He is compassionate, gentle, confident in his treatments, and an all around miracle worker!
Fantastic experience: I purchased the virtual coaching package: 8- 45 min sessions spread out over a few months, where physical therapist and neck expert Jono basically healed my headaches. This guy knows some stuff you won't be told anywhere else to the level of specificity that he does. First appointment I was to relate all my headache troubles going back decades, then progressively, every session I was given a few simple to intermediate stretches along with some simple exercises for the neck to practice daily. Immediate relief within a couple of days! Simple stretches would alleviate my headaches minutes after they would start. Progressively, 7 months later: two and a half headaches in 5 months VS before that for over 20 years having headaches every couple of days! All bodies are different but mostly all human necks function the same, so book at least one appointment and see if this is for you. I didn't know it would help me, but you have to believe me, my headaches were life altering, miserable, painful and relentless especially with barometric pressure changes, and Jono fixed that by showing me how to trigger movement in areas of the neck that no physical therapist can touch (in my opinion). No drugs, no gimmicks, and actually a straight up nice guy to talk to. Worth every penny! It will be an investment, it's not cheap, and it will take self discipline, so this is serious. But if your headaches are that bad, and you're willing to do anything, you gotta speak to Jono. Stop popping pills, stop wasting money on other things and pay Jono a visit or book online, he may change your life! He's in Colorado, I'm in North Carolina... didn't have to step out of my house the whole time. Just try it!
Fantastic experience: Excellent in every way! I have been going for over a year for serious migraine problems. I have 90% less headaches than I did before I found Novera. No medicine of any sorts has been given or offered. This has all been accomplished with physical therapy work in office and home. Office staff is extremely courteous and thoughtful. Highly recommend coming here if you have any sort of headache issue.
Fantastic experience: Outstanding work. I relapsed and lost faith for a month or two. Becca figured it out and I’m doing great now. I’m extremely appreciative of her willingness and ability to tackle my headaches. I’m without a doubt impressed. Great person and better job! Nathan
Fantastic experience: This is an amazing clinic. If you’re skeptical, check out the headache doctor on all the major social medial outlets, it will give you confidence in Novera’s ability to help you. I’ve had chronic daily migraines for months and after just a few sessions, I found significant relief. Thank you all.
Fantastic experience: To my desperate delight, I discovered Novera : Headache Centre when looking up podcasts on my type of headaches. There was a brand new episode published that happened to be precisely on the subject of my awful affliction. Working with the clinic & Dr. Taves has given me a beacon of hope, despite being halfway around the world. Being fortunate enough to have Dr. Taves pay attention to my painful experience & offer guidance in treatment, with the shared intention of eventually managing with a minimum of medication, is nothing short of life-saving for me. I am tremendously thankful that this centre exists, harbouring caring, helpful healthcare providers who have great generosity of spirit. This centre could very well save your life…
Fantastic experience: I cant recommend this place high enough. I was getting to the point where I dealt with 2 migraines a week and could barely function. Just 1 session a week with Becca for the last few months and the migraines have basically dissapeared. It can be a rough process but the results speak for themselves. I havent felt this clear in a long time!
Fantastic experience: I really can't thank Novera enough for their services. Since starting physical therapy with them, I have rocketed to an almost complete headache free life. I learned everything virtually with their program since I live in California. I've been doing my exercises and stretches daily and I've been able to get back to regular cardio exercises daily for several weeks now. My energy levels are up and my mental state is healthy. I keep my notes from our sessions always open on my table to remind me to 'not sit so much' and to do my exercises. I highly recommend Novera for your headache concerns. Dr. Taves is a true listener and really seeks to find the best methods to help you. I appreciate his mission to help others live a headache free life.
Fantastic experience: Novera’s staff are top notch across the board. Becca is one of the most knowledgeable and kind practitioners I’ve ever worked with. I’m so grateful for her help in getting my pain under control!
Fantastic experience: Very caring staff who truly wants to help in every way possible. Not only did I receive help & incite for my migraines & headaches I was given referrals for further treatment for other health concerns. I would highly recommend Dr. Taves & the Novera headache center.
Fantastic experience: I have been treating with Dr. Taves for over a year now and I have experienced some amazing headache reduction results. Dr. Taves takes the right amount of time to listen to my medical concerns and then he takes the necessary actions to resolve the source of the issue. I highly recommend Dr. Taves and his wonderful staff!
Fantastic experience: I have seen both Dr. Taves and Dr. Becca Murrer and they both helped me out a lot! I greatly appreciate them working me in for emergency appointments, since my issues always seem to arise at the worst times. I would definitely recommend them to anyone! I also really like that you are working with the therapist the entire appointment rather than just being assigned exercises, I feel like that really makes a difference!
Fantastic experience: I found Novera Headache Center through The Headache Doctor podcast. After listening to several episodes and following some suggestions on actions to take, I knew I needed the help Dr. Taves and his colleagues provide. I have received quality care through their virtual care program and can say with confidence I feel better and have a better quality of life because of that care. Dr. Taves listens carefully to my needs and has helped me craft a program for healing. Each time I meet with him we set goals and reflect on what has worked and what hasn't worked. I have a tool box of tools to use for headaches, specific exercises for my neck and shoulders and the support I need to continue to heal and make progress. Novera Headache Center is becoming a true wrap-around provider with services being added all the time. I am thankful I found both the podcast and the Headache Center.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Jono has been instrumental in helping me overcome chronic migraines that have plagued me my whole life. I had seen countless doctors and no one could come close to being as effective as he has been in his treatment. Plus, his whole team is professional and courteous. If you have chronic headaches or migraines, you need to give them a call and book your free discovery to see if he can help. I'm willing to bet he can!
Fantastic experience: I never thought I’d be able to get rid of my migraines. I’ve tried all kinds of treatments including injections. After just three weeks of treatment, my migraines are gone! Such kind staff and very accommodating for moms of littles.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. Dr. Taves' unique approach to treatment has drastically increased mobility and relieved almost all pain in my neck after 35+ years of suffering due to two life changing auto accidents. He listens to what patients have to say and adjusts his treatments accordingly.
Fantastic experience: I am THE skeptic of anything that 1- costs money 2- says they can cure something and I haven’t heard of it before. For me dizziness I went to urgent care, primary care, ENT referrals and have an MRI scheduled. Then my friend told me to go see Novera bc she found relief from their treatment so I tried it out. I was SUPER skeptical even AS it was helping my symptoms… and then on my 4th session my dizziness was literally gone. Its been 2 weeks and it hasn’t returned! A few months ago I started to have this dizziness that felt like I was walking on a ship at sea, my body felt like it was swaying and it increased over time to be all day and it got worse and worse. I was super scared, thinking I was dying or something (yes, probably some irrational anxiety in there)… and am SO grateful I found this place. If you have headaches or dizziness it’s going to fix that for you, so just do it.
Fantastic experience: Novera has been life changing. Before coming here I was taking ibuprofen about 6 times a week for headaches and pain, along with my migraine medication about 2-4 times a month. I have seen a significant improvement where I no longer take ibuprofen that much and I have seen a major change in the way my migraines have presented themselves. To the point I developed a minor migraine while out hiking and forgot my Ubrelvy, but I ended up not needing to take it as my migraine was very minor and ended quickly. My every day has been improved greatly, and my migraines are much less debilitating. I am not yet done with going to Novera, but with the changes I have seen in a short time I imagine more changes are sure to come. I wish I had come here sooner.
Fantastic experience: I am SO thankful for this place! Kelsey is amazing! I came to their office super skeptical that they would be able to help me. I had been having headaches off and on for years but by the time I finally went to see them I had had a headache or a migraine everyday for 3 months. I was getting frustrated with my doctor who kept giving me pills to try without addressing the cause. I was afraid to be hopeful when I went to see Kelsey, but decided to give the process a try. I am so thankful that I did! I feel so much better. I might have a small headache here or there, but it goes away faster and without the meds I used to have to take. Novera is worth the try if you have headaches or neck issues! I can't say enough good things about this place.
Fantastic experience: I have suffered from migraines with aura for 16 years. I found Dr.Taves’ podcast last year and started listening regularly and applying it to my life. I was on vacation in Colorado in May and decided to make an appointment to be evaluated while in town. I am so glad I was able to go in person to be evaluated because it gave me great hope to get control of my life again. Prior to that I was starting to try prescription medication which I really did not want to do. I then began a virtual coaching package and started using the Sam device in addition to my other exercises and lifestyle changes and have significantly decreased the amount/severity of migraines. I am confident that if I am compliant I will continue to have good results. Thank you so much for your help!!!
Fantastic experience: I suffered from daily headaches and was taking Tylenol multiple times a day with little to no relief. After going to Dr Taves and following his treatment plan I am now able to go weeks without a headache and haven’t taken any Tylenol in over a month.
Fantastic experience: Today was my first appointment and I’m looking forward to a treatment plan unlike any other I’ve experienced. Jono focused on areas of my head and neck that no one has gone after before. He is very attentive to your needs, very easy to talk to and very good at what he does. I look forward to relief from frequent migraines.
Fantastic experience: I can't tell yet if the exercises and stretches willl help, as my appointment was just today but Dr. Stoerzbach has given me hope for the first time in a decade of daily headaches and migraines. UPDATE : I have been doing the exercises regularly and have been headache free since my appointment with Dr. Stoerzbach. Yup. You read that right HEADACHE FREE. If I wasn't experiencing this.. I wouldn't believe it. If you're on the fence about booking an appointment at Novera.. don't waste another moment of your life.
Fantastic experience: I have experienced headaches and migraines for several years. I have previously tried several different medicines and done a couple rounds of physical therapy. I found the Novera Headache center online, but hesitated to make an appointment because of the distance I would need to travel. I decided to go for a consultation visit and set up sessions. I wish I would have gone sooner. I didn’t know what to expect. Dr. Taves did a great job of explaining why I got headaches and the process he would use for my treatment. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend the Novera headache center to anyone suffering from headache and migraines.
Fantastic experience: Both Drs. Taves and Stoerzbach have a passion to help, are good listeners and most of all they know how to treat the root cause of migraines instead of looking to medications to only mask the symptoms. We need more clinics like theirs to employ the same approach in helping those with migraines. Bria is also very talented. I am amazed at her ability to listen and empathize. I live in Pennsylvania and she was always ready to change schedules in way that allowed me to have decent flight times in and out of Colorado Springs. Novera has not only made a drastic impact in my life, but also for my family (in having to live with me). I am in my 40's and have had migraines since I was 5 years old. The migraines have been chronic for about the last 15 years. I have seen countless health care professionals including having been to 3 headache specialists in Philadelphia and Chicago. I spend a week in a hospital in Chicago to try to get the migraines under control. I've tried physical therapy, chiropractic, TMJ specialist, ear nose throat specialist, pain management and nearly every prescription medication and injection that could be prescribed for migraines. None have been very helpful. I had migraines on a daily basis before coming to Novera. I was skeptical to try physical therapy again, but out of desperation for any help I could find I gave Novera a try. Having a migraine is now beginning to become a rare experience in only a short number of treatments even after stopping all the preventative medications I was taking.
Fantastic experience: I was very grateful to have found Novera through Dr. Taves' podcasts! I started to have debilitating headaches after a potential neck injury due to sleeping wrong. No doctor could tell me what was wrong and all they wanted to do was put me on medication. Living in California, it would be a little tough to see Dr. Taves, luckily he has an online treatment plan. This allowed me to meet with him over video chat and was able to assess my neck issues and go over the exercises I would be doing in the comfort of my own home. Im happy to say my neck feels much much better, my headaches have significantly decreased. The most important part is that I felt heard and supported through the whole process! If you're not in colorado, I suggest trying his online treatment plan!
Fantastic experience: I am a chronic migraine sufferer who has struggled with horrible migraines for over twelve years. I have tried every treatment under the sun. I have seen multiple neurologists, pain specialists, chiropractors, etc. I have tried every medication, botox, nerve blocks, diet changes, and everything I could possibly find. I am a middle school teacher and my migraines have made my job nearly impossible. I have questioned whether or not it is realistic for me to keep my job. Earlier this spring a friend reached out and recommended Novera. I had a virtual appointment with Dr. Taves and scheduled to travel from Nebraska to work with him in Colorado in June. When I got to Novera, I was twenty eight days into the same migraine. Immediately upon walking into the office I felt listened to, believed, and cared for. After two treatments with Dr. Taves, my migraine was gone! I am so happy to report that five weeks later, I still have not had a migraine! This is a record for me!! I am heading back for one more week of treatment next week and cannot wait. My experience at Novera has been life changing and I cannot recommend it enough! I am hopeful that I will walk into this new school year completely migraine free!
Fantastic experience: Novera Headache Center has given my life back. For 3 1/2 years I lived with debilitating pain. It lingered around and I thought I might be able to just medicate it away. But Dr.Taves worked and listened to me over a period of time. He was able to tailor a treatment that met my needs. I had been to three other Doctors/Physical therapists with no real relief. But Dr. Taves found my issue! If you’re skeptical on if PT can help, you’re not alone. But this has helped me in a lasting way and I would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I can't say enough positive things about Novera! From my first phone call with Bria, I felt comfortable and cared for. I traveled from another state to receive a week of daily treatments with Dr. Stoerzbach (4 days) and Dr. Taves (1 day). I felt a huge difference after one hour with Dr. Stoerzbach. Manual treatment is intense, but I felt like I was in good hands, literally and figuratively. Until I went to Novera, I endured judgment from healthcare providers about being a migraine sufferer. There was absolutely no judgment at Novera and it is clear that these PTs want to help you get well. I had a few headaches after returning home, but I've been headache free for about 5 weeks now! If you are considering working with Drs. Stoerzbach and Taves, I urge you to make an appointment. I give them my highest recommendation!
Fantastic experience: Dr Stoerzbach is phenomenal! I learned about Novera from my dentist after seeing her for extreme tooth pain. My tooth pain and headaches were actually TMJ caused by neck issues. Six weeks later, I am pain and headache free! This practice is exactly what you hope for in any medical setting. Everyone is kind and compassionate. Scheduling and the website are easy. Communication is superior too! Best of all, they truly want you to feel better long term. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I had been dealing with migraines on a weekly basis and headaches almost every day for about 7 years. I have tried changing my diet, wholistic remedies, and lots of meds given by a neurologist. My last step was Botox which helped for 2 1/2 months at the cost of $1,500. When the Botox wore off I was at my wits end and literally googled “headache help.” My headaches stopped after my first visit with Dr. Taves. I did have 2 migraines in the early part of treatment but none since. This has been life changing for me, no meds, no neurological appts. Novera is a beautiful simple office with an incredible front desk staff that super helpful and friendly. Thank you Dr Taves for your passion to help end long time headache sufferers.
Fantastic experience: I give Novera Headache Center 5 stars for the education, treatments and friendly service I received from Dr. Taves and his staff. I fully support Dr. Taves' mission which includes educating patients and their doctors on the importance of getting early referrals to Physical Therapists like himself who understand the connection between neck pain, C1 and C2 function and headaches/migraines. By getting help from knowledgeable Physical Therapists like Dr. Taves, I hope one day patients will find timely relief from their headache pain instead of plodding through years of limited success with medications and services from providers who don't know how to treat cervicogenic headaches. You don't have to rely on medications for the rest of your life!
Fantastic experience: Over the past few years, I had seen a decrease in the ability to turn my head to the left or right and almost got to the point where I could barely move my head at all. To add fuel to the fire, I was constantly plagued with nagging headaches all day that I attempted to remediate with caffeine. After seeing how much Novera had helped my wife and from reading the other google reviews, I decided to give it a try. After my first session with Dr Taves, I felt so much better and was able to move my neck more than I had been able to for months. I have had several appts with Dr Taves and Dr Stoerzbach and I am almost completely back to normal...no headaches and able to easily move my head from my left shoulder to right shoulder. If you are suffering from headaches and/or chronic neck tension, give this place some serious consideration.
Fantastic experience: I started going to Novera after I had reached a point of having daily headaches. Nothing else seemed to be helping and I was desperate to find relief. I found myself having to take breaks every afternoon and I was saying no to my kids more and more because of the headaches. I was so happy to find Novera because I loved that its a natural approach and Dr. Taves did a great job listening to my concerns. I was hesitant at first because of the cost, but after the first session I felt relief right away. I continued for 12 sessions and the frequency of my headaches was less and less. Now I only get about one headache a month and the pain is much less than before. I am so grateful that I am now able to spend more time with my family and no longer need a break everyday. My husband and I both agree that the treatments were totally worth the cost. I just wish I had went sooner!
Fantastic experience: After one of the most intense migraines of my life I went on a mission to find more help. I browsed the web looking for an alternative that might provide some relief and was looking for something that provided drug free care. After stumbling on Novera and reading on the treatments and care provided I decided to schedule a consultation. If you are reading this I'm sure you are in the same boat I was in, and I'm here to tell you SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION AND GET THE HELP YOU DESERVE!! After my first treatment I knew right away this was everything I was looking for and made it a priority to travel 5+ hours one way, sometimes twice a week to make appointments. Every dollar and every mile is worth it. For 15+ years I suffered migraines, some years they came 3 times a week and if I wasn't fighting off a migraine I was dealing with intense, distracting headaches. I'm proud to say I'm migraine free, rarely have a headache and have the knowledge and tools for home care to keep this standard of living I now have. I'm a new person after 12 sessions and two months of care. Not only are my migraines gone, my mood, my personality and the relationships around me are better due to not having that fog over my head 24/7. I'm proud to say I have my life back. And I owe it all to Novera headache center and it's top notch Dr and staff.
Fantastic experience: I had migraines and headaches for years, but they had really ramped up over the last year with 3-4 migraines a month and daily headaches. It was like I couldn’t catch a break from headaches, couldn’t sleep, hard to focus, and very stressful. Like many busy moms, I kept waiting for it to get better rather than finding time. After two months at Novera, my daily headaches are gone and I only have 1 migraine-like headache a month (and the pain and symptoms are significantly reduced from before). Not only that, I think the stretching/home exercises and overall posture tips keep it going beyond the initial treatment. I would highly recommend Novera for anyone suffering from headaches—it is worth getting your time, energy, sleep, and enjoyment back. I wish I had gone sooner!
Fantastic experience: After suffering from headaches for years, I assumed the chronic pain was just something I would deal with for the rest of my life. Dr. Taves and his team did an excellent job of educating me about the causes of migraines and practical solutions to my ongoing pain. During treatment sessions, Dr. Taves is great at troubleshooting -- when one approach ran into issues or wasn't working, he was always willing to find creative solutions to help. I went from having 3-6 headaches a week to having a headache at most every 3-4 weeks, which has drastically improved my life and allowed me to participate in activities I thought I wouldn't be able to do again! 10 out of 10 recommend!
Fantastic experience: Within just a few minutes of my first visit I realized Mr. Taves knew what he was doing. He creates a professional and kind environment and it’s clear he has a passion to help people live headache-free. I had suffered with migraines after long runs or hikes for years. I had tried my best to stay hydrated, consume enough calories, balance electrolytes, protect myself from the sun, etc. But apparently the root of my issue was in my neck. After about a month of Novera visits I was able to go on a long run and didn’t have any post-run migraine! I'd definitely recommend Novera for anyone suffering with head/neck pain.
Fantastic experience: After over a decade of migraines that kept me from living my best life, I am happy to say that I am nearly migraine free! I used to get three a week and since starting treatment, I've only had one in two months! Dr. Taves is friendly and treats me with respect and a personalized plan to help me. My only regret is that I didn't know about this years ago. I am enjoying life!
Fantastic experience: As a Physician Assistant I have referred many patients to Dr Taves. I myself have benefitted greatly from his techniques. I have had headaches for 34 years and done many things to get rid of them. I have been seeing him for 6 months and my headaches have improved by 85%. I do not take any medicines anymore for the pain. He has also taught me how to do a Home Exercise Program (HEP) to help myself when I start to feel tension. My daughter and my father are also benefitting from his work. Thank God for Dr. Taves!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Jono truly is a headache healing magician! His physical therapy, hand work on my neck has improved the migraines that I was having by 100%. I was having migraines 2-3 times a week, and had been having them for more than 5 years. I was starting to think that nothing was going to help. These weekly headaches were debilitating, making it nearly impossible to work on my craft and enjoy my life. Being a natural-path, and not a believer in taking pharmaceuticals for my pain, I had opted to get acupuncture, take Chinese herbs and have regular visits to the chiropractor and a functional medicine doctor. These remedies alleviated my pain slightly, but headaches would always show back up and knock me down. After 1-2 visits at Novera, I was already feeling relief from the magnitude of the headache pain. After 2 weeks, the headaches had been reduced by over 80%, and the pain was far less when they did appear. After 6 weeks of treatment, I am 100% healed. Never did I think that I would be healed fully from my migraines! I HIGHLY recommend Novera, and the treatments are not painful or uncomfortable, nor do you have to take supplements or an unnecessary drug. The treatment is very hands-on much like physical therapy and the treatment lasts because the Doctor gets your spine back in alignment with his special techniques. I am very grateful to have found Novera and all of the staff is amazing and friendly and helpful as can be!
