The traditional Chiropractic technique of adjusting (the one you see in the movies) can at times hurt on occasion. Typically it will only hurt if the Chiropractor is too aggressive or forceful with the adjustment, however this is rare. It may also hurt if it's done by someone who is not a Chiropractor.
I highly recommend never getting an adjustment by a non-Chiropractor. The NUCCA Technique provides an extremely gentle and precise force that you will hardly even feel. It will not hurt. The answer will depend on which Chiropractor you see. Some Chiropractors will see you for 5 or 6 visits until you feel better and then release you from care.

€œWhen I first heard my preliminary diagnosis of Ménière’s disease I was quite concerned.
I had experienced tinnitus for years but added to it was both dizziness and nausea.
I was not provided much hope from traditional medicine and wasn’t sure where to turn.
My chiropractor referred me to Dr. Leach and I have not had any return of the dizziness/nausea episodes. I feel hopeful for the future that the NUCCA treatments and Dr. Leach will keep me far from the progression of Ménière’s and all of the challenges and uncertainty of that condition. “

I have a horrible Vertigo that started about 6 or so years ago. I have seen several service Providers before coming to this clinic. I found Progressive Chiropractor from another Chiropractor who highly recommended this. I am definitely making a lot of progress - big thanks to Dr Leach! From the start, he took the time to listen to me and the problems that I was having. The technique he was using worked well with my Vertigo. 2 years passed and fast forward that, I am definitely in a better place than I did. My Vertigo, though not completely gone, has been happening less frequently and less intense

I have had random nerve pain and muscle spasm in my back for about 15 years. 2-3 times a year I would hit a nerve and be down for 3-5 days or longer. 8 months ago it was the worst ever and lasted for almost 2 months.
My sister referred me to Progressive Chiropractic and said they had fixed her back pain. She went to one in Tacoma and said there was one in Edmonds as well. I immediately scheduled an appointment with Dr Kevin Leach @ Progressive Chiropractic in Edmonds. He checked me out and presented a plan to fix me. He is no bone cracker! Kevin uses the NUCCA process. This Man is amazing! 2 weeks

I feel like my story sounds like every other person I have ever talked to about suffering from Migraines. And my history of Migraines is a long journey. Most of my life. But most recently in the last 5 years, it has taken over my life. You feel like your primary care doctor is sick of talking to you and trying to help you. So, they give you a list of medications that you can try, choose from and see what ones work. But what they do not offer you is any other type of help. So, what did I do? I got on the internet.

I experiencing debilitating low back pain four to five times per year for two years. All of that ended when I started seeing Dr. Leach. I have not had a severe pain problem problem with my low back since we started.
I'm not Kean on chiropractors and their knuckle cracking approach to health, so it was a big deal for me to go see a chiropractor. This was not a typical experience. Dr. Leach has never "cracked" my neck. He uses actual neck and hip measurements (not just poking around with his fingers) to determine my health and the required adjustment. This is NOT the usual chiropractic care. I would

Dr. Leach spent a great deal of time getting to know about my particular symptoms and explained how NUCCA would be helpful in remedying them. Since I have been seeing him my equilibrium has improved, and the plugged ears that I was suffering from are no longer a problem. His treatment is very gentle. Nothing like other chiropractors.

I highly recommend trying Progressive Chiropractic care for anyone that is experiencing symptoms from Vertigo. Prior to coming to Dr. Leach's office I had seen other Doctors and I was experiencing "post Vertigo " symptoms. Unstable balance when walking, Ringing in ear, and nausea .
After reading about NUCCA care I decided to give it try. Glad I did! Dr Leach and office assistant were very attentive, patient, and helped ease my concerns about the care.As a result of having my spine aligned,I'm now on the path to healing. Many Thanks!

I found Dr. Leach via my husband who'd been seeing him for well over a year for treatment of his tinnitus. His improvement had been nothing short of miraculous, so when time came, last summer, where I was suffering severe back and hip pain, the choice was a no-brainer. I made an appointment with Dr. Leach and not only did my back and hip pain subside almost immediately, my migraines were reduced substantially, and best of all, I was able to return to pushing myself physically with respect to ballroom dancing which is my favorite form of physical activity.
As a result, next month I'll be returning

Dr. Leach took to time to really figure out what was wrong with my neck and make a comprehensive treatment plan specific to my problem. I was very impressed with his professionalism and knowledge and how quickly I was pain free. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Leach especially if you have tried other types of chiropractic care and not seen long term results. The NUCCA approach is gentle, doesn't hurt at all and actually fixed my neck instead of just giving me temporary relief.

This is a good idea for anyone who needs their body to be as aligned and symmetrical as possible, for example if you are involved in a sport like skating or if you practice yoga. Otherwise your body is working against you. Yes, this takes time, but so do other things. As far as practitioners go, Dr. Leach has always been informative, professional and upbeat.

Dr. Leach is passionate about his work and taking the time to help his patients fully understand their specific health challenges and how he is going to assist in that healing process. I like the time he takes for both evaluations and treatments plus ensuring the patient is truly partnering with him in their road back to better health. It also helps to know he had a personal health challenge that was remediated with the current work he is doing...lends an additional element of trust and credibility to his care!

Dr. Leach truly believes that his chiropractic approach can and will help everyone, and that passion carries forward into everything he does. In my time seeing him, Dr. Leach has been caring and attentive, always looking for ways to improve my overall health and respond to my feedback. He definitely comes along side you as a partner in your health and well-being. Through seeing him and introducing massage, I am now largely free of the neck and back pain I had held for a long time. I recommend you to check him out!

Kevin is great at what he does, and it's awesome to see him running his own practice now. I've been a patient of his for many years, and I appreciate his attention to detail, his quality care and his timeliness of appointments! I am able to be in and out of his office quickly, and I don't feel pressured to come in for appointments that I don't need. His recommendations are focused on the client, not just on driving revenue... Thanks Dr. Leach!

Dr. Leach is absolutely amazing! We set up a consultation to go over some minor aches in my neck and hips. He was eminently thorough with the initial evaluation as well as explaining and showing me my stage two misalignment and what might have caused it. We set up a 3 month plan to start the correction process. Just a heads up; he is not a chiropractor who cracks and pops. He focuses on where the main issue is so that you can feel centered and healthy again. He pinpointed my issue and applied pressure every appointment. I didn't feel much transition until after I left when I got into my car

Dr. Kevin Leach helped me from getting weekly migraine to zero! He was amazing with helping me get aligned and very charismatic. His appointments are longer than most chiropractors I have been to, which I appreciated. I loved his holistic approach to healthcare. As a healthcare provider myself, I am very picky. I would recommend anyone go here for a different approach on chiropractic, quick results and lasting effects. Thank you Dr. Leach!

For over 3 years and after trying everything I was starting to lose hope to ever do sports the way I used to. After only few sessions there is less pain in the knee and the hope is back!Everyone should have their upper cervicals checked because of the possible implications on the whole body. With Kevin you'll get the highest level of attention and care. He's a pro and has the passion to help and educate people for better health. I highly recommend him!
