Light Force Adjustment administered by Dr. Heckard to the Cervical Spine.

Due to a trumatic fall and serious injury to my tailbone when I was a child, I have suffered with constipation my entire life....and I am now 55 years old. I have been to several holistic docors that didn't provide any relief. A friend recommended Dr. Heckard and when I went to see him he used Directional Non-Force Technique and tested me for what supplements whould support his work. In only 4 treatments along with taking the supplements I no longer suffer from constipation, for the first time in my life! So, if you are suffering with a health issue that has never been resolved in your lifetime, I highly recommend you give Dr. Heckard a call!!

I have been seeing several Chiropractors in the last 30 years. Dr.Heckard is the best of them all. He is very professional and has a good sense of humor which makes it a pleasure for me during my appointments. Without his adjustments, I would have a very difficult time getting through the day. I highly recommend anyone to try Dr. Heckard for their Chiropractic needs.

I started seeing Dr. Heckard 20 years ago after I injured my back. I was considering disability at the age of 27 because I was in such pain. I couldn't even put my socks and underwear on in the morning! I started seeing Dr. Heckard 3 times a week and relief was immediate. I gradually improved with an occasional "fix" when something got out of alignment. Eventually I have been able to visit only once or twice a year for a tune-up. Dr. Heckard addressed my whole body including testing me for supplements that might support my healing. He even cleared me for an allergy I didn't know I had and I immediately felt better. I have since referred him to several friends and family members and everone has had excellent results. He is a gifted Chiropractor and holistic healer. He is also amazing at unresolved or undiagnosed problems. Some of his treatments are unusal but follow his advice and you will be amazed at the results.

I have been going to Dr. Bruce Heckard in Napa for 25 years and have recommended him to many very thankful friends. Whether it was a stiff neck from sleeping incorrectly, my low back being out of place due to work or exercise, or a much more serious issue a herniated disc in my low back. Dr. Heckard has consistently brought relief. He uses Directional Non-Force Technique (which in my understanding means he is not "cracking" your neck or back which was my mean fear of Chiropractic to start with, but instead uses muscle testing and makes gentle precise corrections). He explains clearly what he is doing and can make recommendations if other issues seem to be affecting the situation. If you have pain from major trauma or something much simpler, I recommend you see Dr. Heckard for relief.

I was suffering for three years with what felt like a block of cement in my neck and occiput area before seeing Dr. Heckard. My shoulders would burn with pain at times. In short, I was wondeing how long one could go on like this. I was referred to Dr. Heckard by a good friend. The first week I saw him my cement block disappeared. I could not believe it! He softened what I thought would be hard as cement forever. What a gift! I am very thankful that I took the time to see Dr. Heckard.

I want to thank Dr. Bruce Heckard for being "our family" doctor for over 20 years! He is an amazing man with a gift. As a nurse, I see how the normal medical doctor prescribes medications to band aid the problem. It is just the way they have been taught. I appreciate the time he takes to get to the root of the problem and try to fix it in a homeopathic way. Dr. Heckard is not afraid to say " I can't fix this", and suggests in seeing a medical doctor. He tires to understand how the body is responding to a problem and then reverse engineers it, whether it is emotions, parasites, or just plain pain. He has helped keep me as an RN for 25 years and my entire family staying healthy.
