Dr. Brown is the best! I have had chronic migraines since i was 9, and have not felt any relief until I saw him! He is intentional and spends time to understand the root cause of your pain!

I found Dr. Brown through TikTok, and I can honestly say he changed my life. After months of absolute hell — constant migraines, daily head pain, multiple medications (Gabapentin, Qulipta, Nurtec), nerve blocks, and even being admitted to the hospital for DHE — I was still suffering with no answers. Thanks to him, we finally discovered the real cause of my pain: issues with my C1/C2. For the first time in months, I’m starting to feel relief and finally have hope again. What meant the most to me is that even though I’m not local and couldn’t see him in person, he still took the time to talk with me, listen, and guide me toward the right specialist. That kind of compassion is rare, and I am truly grateful. If you’re struggling with chronic migraines or neck-related pain, I cannot recommend him enough. He genuinely cares, and he helped point me in the direction that finally gave me answers.

0/5 I sought treatment with Dr. Brown for chronic neck pain, jaw clenching, and headaches after trying multiple other specialists and therapies. While I appreciated his stated philosophy of addressing root causes, my actual experience was disappointing and costly. Initial visit: The consultation did not include an adjustment, but I was led to believe he could "see what no one else had seen." He implied he could work with me financially since I am currently unemployed, but costs were not made transparent upfront. X-rays: I had to ask to see them, and when shown, the explanations lacked clarity and medical terminology. I was told they would be reviewed externally, but later he claimed he had reviewed them himself. Despite multiple requests, I only received copies after repeatedly following up and eventually visiting the office in person. Costs: I was asked to sign a $3,500 agreement for six months of "reconstructive care" (24 visits, 2 exams, and the initial exam). This was not disclosed before the treatment plan was presented. I signed under pressure but felt uncomfortable after receiving just one adjustment, poor feedback on my x-rays, and no guarantee of results. Cancellation & refund: The agreement allowed cancellation with a prorated refund. However, after notifying him, I received no response and had to call, text, email, and ultimately go to the office to get my refund. Overall, I left feeling misled, pressured, and disappointed. If you're considering this clinic, I strongly recommend asking upfront about costs, requesting copies of your records immediately, and being cautious of high-pressure agreements. Do your research and advocate for your care!

I cannot say enough good things about my experience! I traveled from Indiana to Texas to see Dr. Brown, and it was absolutely worth it. I’ve struggled with migraines for almost 30 years. I’ve tried countless medications and seen so many different doctors. Some things may have helped for a short while, but nothing lasted. Eventually, I was told there was nothing more that could be done. Before coming here, I had been in the middle of a seven-week stretch of daily migraines and felt completely defeated. After seeing Dr. Brown I have now been pain-free for a week. For the first time in decades, I feel like I have my life back. I didn’t realize how bad I felt until I finally experienced what it’s like to live without pain. If you are struggling and feel like you’ve run out of options, don’t give up. I highly recommend Dr. Brown — making the trip was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

I cannot recommend Dr. Brown enough. First and foremost, he genuinely cares and wants to help his patients. I’ll never forget the excitement he had when an adjustment held or I noticed changes. Dr. Brown gave me hope that I haven’t had in a long time. I’ve had chronic health problems my entire life. Almost all were unexplained or deemed idiopathic. I started having migraines around 12 and around 17 they became chronic. I saw many doctors, underwent all the tests, and tried every type of medication to no avail. I largely learned to just push through. About 4 years ago, after worsening symptoms, it was determined that I had also developed idiopathic intercranial hypertension. I was able to keep some of the symptoms at bay through natural means but eventually that wasn’t enough. The pressure was starting to permanently damage my eyes. Medication didn’t work so the other option was a shunt which wasn’t an option I was comfortable with unless there truly was no other option. I came across Dr. Brown on TikTok. I was intrigued because this was an avenue I hadn’t explored before. All I have ever wanted was a reason/answer and that is something I have never been able to get until now. I felt seen for the first time during my initial consultation. Dr. Brown told me on that phone call that I was strong for enduring what I have over my lifetime. No one had ever said that to me before and it was incredibly moving. I largely suffer in silence because I don’t want to burden anyone else. I was fortunate enough to have the ability to travel to Dr. Brown. I am not exaggerating when I say my week with Dr. Brown was life changing. After the function nervous system testing and biomechanical x-rays, Dr. Brown saw an issue in my neck that could explain every “unexplained” health issue I have had since I was a small child. This likely stems from an accident when I was 6 months old. Right before my first adjustment, Dr Brown said “I see the problem, now are you ready to fix it?” and without hesitation I said yes. After the first adjustment, I very quickly noticed changes including things that I didn’t even know were not functioning properly. I could breathe in a way, that I have never been able to in my entire life. I could take a full deep breath that went all the way down. I had asthma as a child and “grew” out of it as I got older. I had no idea I wasn’t breathing normally. I also learned that I had trouble swallowing when it became much easier after the adjustment. I instantly felt fluid drain down the tubes in my ears, my head became lighter, and the tension that was always in my neck started to drain away. I didn’t realize how heavy my head was until it wasn’t, nor how forward I was holding it. After a couple of adjustments, I noticed that something was different about my neck. My neck was physically smaller than it had ever been and for the first time ever I could feel/see the notch in my neck. My face was also noticeably less full. I probably lost 2 pounds of fluid from in my head. Here are other changes I saw over the week: -Less memory issues -Less tingling in hands/feet -Less ringing in ears -Less feeling my eye movement -Better digestion -Less nausea/stomach problems -Less bloating -Sleeping better/less exhausted -Less dizziness -Improvement with sweaty hands and feet -Tension draining from upper back -Better posture now that my head isn’t so heavy -Post nasal drip improved -Less anxious -ADHD symptoms improved -Less facial pressure While there are additional things that I need to do to improve the function of my nervous system, I feel better than I have in a long time and will forever be grateful for Dr. Brown for giving me my life back. Or rather giving me the possibility at a life I never had.
