There are many conditions/symptoms of the brain and nervous system that don't respond well to aggressive treatments such as drug therapy or surgery. I explored all sorts of treatments over the last 2 years as result of a serious traumatic concussion.
I researched and researched and I found Dr. Kukurin known as Dr. K by patients after learning about functional chiropractic neurology.
Dr. K ain't just your typical pedestrian one trick pony chiropractor who just does back and neck adjustments. He's also studied traditional Chinese acupuncture. His thought leadership nationwide and 20-something plus years of knowledge in functional neurology is what makes him shine bright like a diamond. Bad Gal RiRi would be oh so proud!
When you are as desperate for relief like I was, I treated every scheduled appointment with Dr. K like it was Black Friday! I would fight morning traffic on I-10 from Phoenix to Avondale just to get there an hour before the office even opened so I wouldn't be late. Every single friggin' day I would wake up with a debilitating chronic pain like my body is half asleep (pins and needles sensation) and a balance disorder that renders me useless standing up for long periods of time outside of being at work sitting down. I wouldn't wish this upon anyone except that jerk who parks his whip and blocks my parking garage at the crib....well sorta.
But I started seeing a slight glimmer of hope after even my first session. Thanks to an app that he created with the help of some developers in the Netherlands called Tone Pacer. Dr. K pioneered this solution that utilizes sounds that penetrate into your brain using bone conducting headphones. (Tone Burst Vestibular Stimulation). The first time I met the good doc he was training a colleague on how he treated patients utilizing this Tone Pacer app. I happened to be that patient on that one day. Since that very first session I would walk out of there feeling great close to pain free but I would re-lapse after a few days and that went on and on and it was a cycle I was dealing with constantly.
Oh and about the office....the atmosphere inside is very welcoming from my interactions with the front office Lori (Dr's wife) who is awesome as well! I was always seen on time, the visit took as long/short as I needed for me to get the relief I needed.
Just note that the type of specialized alternative treatment I received was not billable through your health insurance. But for your typical standard chiropractic care they do accept Anthem Blue Cross. Dr. K is a mover and shaker so he's not in this AZ office every week. He also "commutes" to his other office in Pittsburgh so he logs plenty of frequent flyer miles between both locations. He is in demand!
In the end Dr. K was not able to fully heal me BUT was able to point me in the right direction of other providers in California of another solution that will help take me to the next level. Dr. K won't sugarcoat anything, if he can or can't help you he will you tell you straight up! I now have hope that 2018 will be a turning point for me! I'm eternally grateful to having met the great Dr. George Kukurin! He's humble, personable, approachable, compassionate and a great listener. This man has a lot of tools in his tool box to address all sort of pain symptoms! You'd be surprised! If you have chronic pain and looking to obtain relief and don't know where to turn I would strongly consider contacting Kukurin Chiropractic for a consultation.
