TMJ

I heard of your treatment through Todd and Jennifer Pedretti. Through your treatment, Jenn was able to get off all meds for Lupus over 3 years ago.

A few months back, my dentist told me that I had TMJ and wanted me to wear a mouth guard. My beliefs are in fixing problems not treating them so I decided to look you up to see if you could find and fix what was causing my TMJ. I figured that I might as well get all myself realigned. My neck on the right side has bothered me for years due to multiple injuries. My sinuses have been chronically inflamed for many years. For about the last 2+ years my ears have felt full and cloudy. I used to be very easy going and lately for 2-3 years I have felt on edge and very irritable.

After the first Advanced CNS Restoration treatment, i was able to turn my head all the way to the left without strain and stretching in the right side of my neck.

J. Enriquez Denver, Colorado

Jaw pain started in May of 2003. Got really bad in fall of 2003. Locked down, headaches every day until July of 2004. Fitted for splint. Pain went away, unlocked to a certain degree. February 2005 pain returned and headaches more severe.

Orthodontist suggested jaw surgery and braces. Seemed like correct path since I was in so much pain. Examined options and arrived in Denver June 20, 2005 from Alaska. Two appointments/day for 4 days. After first series less pain and less headaches.

After second Advanced CNS Restoration series, stopped wearing splint and experienced even less pain. After third series, one headache per month. Teeth have moved to where the splint didn't fit any longer.

Fourth and final series have been completed. I'm returning to Alaska and we'll see how it goes from here. I'm 18 years old.

Dr>McCarty was very helpful.

L. Becherer Alaska

This has only been my first week of Advanced CNS Restoration treatment but I have already felt a change in my symptoms.

I have had internal physical problems that started at age 11, doctors could not explain them and I went on with my life until this point. At the age of twenty three, I started having a number of physical problems which included the feeling of a stuffy nose during a cold, headaches, mood swings, and menstrual problems. Blood work was done for numerous things including pituitary tumors. My doctor found nothing and told me that it could be stress, which I felt that it wasn't, due to the fact that my life was going much better than it had since the day I was born.

A few weeks later, I was diagnosed with TMJ. This doctor could not offer any answers to any of my questions concerning the recovery of TMJ. He was brief and never really spoke to me when he came into the room. After spending all of this money, most of which insurance never covered, and feeling hopeless and frustrated that my body was falling apart at such a young age, and no doctor could explain it to me.

I did a little research of my own, I found Dr. McCarty's web site after five months of working with doctors. My husband and I were a little hesitant, but I wanted answers so I flew in from Arizona for my first series of Advanced CNS Restoration treatments.

The first treatment that I had I felt a lot of pressure come off of the right side of my face and my ear seemed to clear up. I could hear better and I didn't even notice that I had been slowly losing my hearing. I went back to my hotel room and my nasal passageways began clearing. I kept breathing in the oxygen as if one more breath was going to be my last. My head was clear and I felt energized.

Dr. McCarty explained all of my problems to me in detail and they actually made sense. I still have more treatments to go but I am very excited to have some answers and some results. This has really taken a lot of stress from my mind.

F. Weaver Arizona

My daughter was treated by Dr. McCarty for TMJ and severe headaches. She had great results after the first week of Advanced CNS Restoration treatments.

I have been treated for TMJ in the past with splints (13 years) and braces (2 years) with good results. When the TMJ returned I decided to go with my daughter on her second visit and see Dr. McCarty. During my first week of treatment, the pain and tenderness in my temples went away as well as the tight muscles in my right shoulder. I also had swelling under my right eye that was noticeably reduced. Breathing through my nose is also much easier. I am extremely pleased with the results of Dr. McCarty's treatment.

L. Reynolds Amarillo, Texas

About a year ago I started having problems with dizziness. I was diagnosed with viral vertigo and sent home. The symptoms never went away and I did everything in my power to find out what was wrong. I saw numerous doctors and had many MRIs and CT scans done. I was forced to quit my job and drop out of college.

Along with the dizziness came headaches and TMJ pain. I spent a few days at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota and they like everybody else found nothing. I was put on numerous different medications and nothing really seemed to help.

I found Dr. McCarty on-line and decided he was my only option left. I wish that it had been my first option because Advanced CNS Restoration was the only thing that gave me relief. I am now back in college and back to my regular life, I can't thank him enough for giving me my life back. My dizziness and headaches are finally over.

J. Erickson Minnesota

I came to Dr. McCarty after suffering for 5 years with TMJ and headaches. I am only 23 years old and felt like I was 60, which is very depressing. I felt like I had to do something about this so when I came across Dr. McCarty's website, I immediately showed my mom who also has TMJ, and she offered to pay to let me try it out. Now that I have had this Advanced CNS Restoration treatment just once, I am so glad that I traveled all the way from Texas to Colorado and I will definitely be back and bringing my mom with me!

After just the first trip, I already have 50% more energy--I jump out of bed instead of dreading getting up. I smile much more and I haven't had a headache for a week now! I am in such a good mood, not to mention my face is more symmetrical and the enormous bags under my eyes have shrunk about 50% too!

Dr. McCarty is very kind and compassionate and he can help you too!

A. Reynolds Amarillo, Texas

Well, I've been suffering from TMJ and joint discomfort since 1986 due to getting kicked in the left side of my jaw while wrestling competitively.

I tried everything from medicine, dentists, doctors, and had negative feedback and results.

I finally went on-line and found Dr. Jim. I was nervous about going to Colorado from California but I had to do something about this horrible problem. Let it be known that I have also been having 2-3 headaches a week.

On the first visit to Dr. Jim my headaches went away.

My second visit, everything is almost completely gone.

Thanks, Dr. Jim

C. Goss California

After having suffered from sleep apnea and TMJ, I can say that after one Advanced CNS Restoration series, I can breathe through my nose at night, which has stopped my snoring problem. As for my TMJ, my right side has stopped popping and clicking completely and I'm optimistic that in the coming weeks the left side will loosen up as well. I'm so glad I came to Dr. McCarty first, rather than spend time and money on other "less effective" treatments.

P. Kuhnen Provo, Utah

"I had been having clicking and popping in my jaw for many years. Over the last year and 1/2 it had worsened with my jaw often painfully locking up. This changed a few months ago to having constant pain in my right jaw extending from the temple area down my jaw almost to my chin."

"I saw Dr. McCarty's web site and decided to call for more information. After weighing my other options (I had been wearing a splint at night for over a year with no improvement) such as braces or surgery, I decided to try Dr. McCarty."

"After three days of Advanced CNS Restoration two treatments each day, I can now open my mouth wider, there is no longer the constant pain, and the pain I have when opening my mouth widely has been reduced by 80%. I am looking forward to further improvement."

B. Martin Paola, Kansas

"I have suffered from TMJ for fourteen years. I had lived with the sensation of a vice grip putting constant pressure between my upper and lower jaw. After years and years of doctors visits, pain medication, and bite guards, I was resigned to the disheartening conclusion I would suffer this pain for the rest of my life."

"I happened to move within one mile of Dr. McCarty's clinic. I was shocked to see the term "TMJ" on his sign, I had never encountered a doctor claiming to cure TMJ. After speaking with him about his treatment process I decided to give it a try."

"After just one treatment of Advanced CNS Restoration, my "vise grip" was gone! After my third treatment, I was able to open my mouth completely with no pain or clicking."

"Not only has Dr. McCarty proven his treatment does work, he's shown a great deal of care and compassion towards my individual situation. Such kindness is not found very often in the medical field, at least within my personal experiences."

I truly consider it Divine intervention that lead me to move so close to Dr. McCarty's office, to drive by that sign, and to pick up the phone and begin the healing process."

"It is such a blessing to live pain free!"

M. Daugherty Denver, Colorado

"I've been suffering from TMJ discomfort for over 7 years. I've tried everything from aspirin to an $1,800.00 splint. The splint worked for a while but after about 4 years the tension and clicking and popping came back."

"I saw Dr. McCarty's website regarding the Advanced CNS Restoration procedure/process by Dr. McCarty. I decided to try the Advanced CNS Restoration. After the first day I could feel a noticeable change. The clicking, popping, and tension were 80% gone. Each day things continue to improve. I'm looking forward to more Advanced CNS Restoration until I'm 100% again."

D. Nelson Loveland, Colorado

"My nine year old son and I came to Dr. McCarty for the advanced cranial treatments, He for sinus trouble and headaches and I for TMJ pain and neck and headaches. We both received a great deal of improvement after the first treatment. My jaw on the right side stopped popping after the 1^st Advanced CNS Restoration treatment. John could breathe better immediately."

"After the four treatments, almost all of my pain is gone, left side of jaw is much improved. John is breathing great. We were very pleased with the results. It was worth everything we went through to get it, even the 16 hours total of driving in from out of town."

K. Hardy, J. Hardy Tyler, Texas

Headaches

I've had headaches and burning in my right upper trapezius for 30 years. I have tried numerous techniques to relieve it but nothing has stopped the pain. After 2 series of Advanced CNS Restoration, I have had a major reduction in my headaches with significant decrease in pressure I've felt in my cranials plus about 80% less burning in my right upper trap. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series knowing it will end my pain and increase the joy in my life. Thank you very much.

J. Griffin Pagosa Springs, Colorado

I have had headaches since I was a little girl. My jaw has always given me trouble and I found out that I had TMJ when I was about 12 years old. My mom and I have tried everything to find someone to cure my headaches, shooting pains, TMJ, and back pain. I have had many doctors for separate problems. Although these doctors would cure one problem, another one would occur. I would be in constant circles. I have had everything you can think of, from splints to orthodontics to heal lifts. Nothing seemed to work.

My mom and I went online one night and found Dr. McCarty. We called the next day and I found myself in Denver the next month.

The first day of Advanced CNS Restoration therapy opened so many doors for me. I have always believed in God and Jesus Christ our Savior. However, I never felt the emotion behind it all. Now, I have a deeper relationship with God. Just from the first day, my headaches have stopped on the first few days of treatment.

I called my Momma every day after treatment and she noticed a change in attitude in life, emotion, everything. She even described me as 'bubbly". This treatment is helping me physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I thank God that He brought me to Dr. McCarty. Anyone who has headaches and pain should see him. Even for one appointment. It is worth a try. He saved my life. I finally feel free.

N. Cassell San Diego, California

Dear Dr. McCarty,

It has been two months now since we have seen you and Alexis is still holding. At least she has all the signs of holding. Still no migraine headaches and her sleep continues to improve... very slowly... and it "roller coasters", but probably that's all part of the healing process. The day and night rhythm is s-l-o-w-l-y coming back. I'm hoping the longer days of Spring with more sunshine will help her body to return to normal rhythm. Also she started the Rolfing and the Rolfer says her body is responding to it very well. Her sister has noticed a big improvement also.

As for me (Shirley), my energy has improved... it too "roller coasters" at times, but overall there is a definite improvement. And less sinus problems too.

Just wanted to update you... Praise God for all the improvements.

I'll be back to finish my adjustments in a few months. Hope all is well with you and Dawn.

Respectfully,

S.Keitel Missourri

My first treatment went very well. After the first Advanced CNS Restoration balloon treatment, I experienced crackling up inside my head, my vision sharpened, and my eye glass prescription seemed to much more comfortable. I experienced a release of tension in my face and felt euphoric. The remaining two treatments were not as dramatic with very little discernable change from my perspective. Dr. McCarty says that it is a process. I've had this condition for 22 years and I look forward to getting better.

R.Council

I came to Dr. McCarty after 7 months of having headaches daily, from medium to severe in strength, and I'd been to the doctor several times and no solutions were found. I was finally convinced that I must have TMJ because the symptoms seemed to fit and that is how I found Dr. McCarty. I typed in "TMJ" "Denver" in the Google search engine and his web site popped up.

Well, to make a long story short, I came in to receive the treatment 12 days ago, and after 9 Advanced CNS Restoration sessions I am totally without headaches. In fact, I haven't used pain medication since my first treatment!

I've begun to notice subtle changes daily in my jaw alignment, and I've stopped grinding my teeth in my sleep. Even my wife has noticed a change in my mood and energy level. And that's the thing-- this treatment not only alleviates pain, it brings hope that you can function normally again, that you don't have to resign yourself to a life of pain and fatigue. anyone who suffers headaches or TMJ knows what I mean, and you need to get this treatment as soon as possible.

J. McFatter Castle Rock, Colorado

Doc,

Wanted to let you know that there has been a pretty dramatic reduction of facial tension and tenderness in jaw and temple areas and daily headaches are mostly gone. Very happy about that and encouraged that I'm only a third of the way through Advanced CNS Restoration treatment and feel this much better. It really wasn't until the last day of treatment that I noticed improvement.

I've had some difficulties in the mental/emotional arena as I'm adjusting. Fortunately, I had read that was fairly typical on your site and trust that time will balance things out. Sleep without sedation has been a challenge and thoughts have been racing. There were, admittedly some stressful events that I came home to so it's not just post Advanced CNS Restoration phenomena.

Also I feel that a tight band that was causing headaches was removed from my head but the 'open' feeling that I have is actually really disconcerting and I've been wanting to wear a hat to sort of hold my head together. Very odd feeling that's hard to describe.

Jaw clicking periodically stops and, at one point, briefly stopped on the right but moved to the left side and then back. So things seem to be moving around and adjusting.

Ross Walters Franklin, Tennesse

By the time I came to Dr. McCarty, I was having headaches at least 4-5 times per week. At least one of those would be what I call a roll-over headache, where you go to sleep with it and wake up the next day it. These are the ones that would usually cause me to miss about 1/2 day of work a week. I was taking 8 Advil at a time with no relief & finally started self medicating with percocet & vicoden that was left over from other things in the medicine cabinet. That was the only way I could get relief...Knock myself out and wake up and try again.

Since coming to Dr. McCarty for Advanced CNS Restoration I have missed maybe 2 days of work because of headaches (that is over an 8 month period) and I have taken the hard drugs maybe 4 times in that same period. I was taking them like 2 times per week before that.

I still have headaches but they aren't near as bad and now if I do get one going good then I can take 3 Advil and it goes away. I think still have a little way to go, but I know one thing for sure... life IS BETTER NOW! Thanks Doc!

H. McCracken Denver, Colorado

I have had headaches for as long as I can remember. They have been occurring more and more often the last couple of years. I was told that I had TMJ and had my dentist recommend a splint to wear every night. It helped for a few months. Then I noticed my top front teeth being loose and my bottom teeth crowding. After my dentist "adjusted" my splint several times and no relief came, I started looking into orthodontists who specialized in TMJ. The orthodontists wanted to make me a new splint and then I would wear braces for a year or so. My husband went on line and accidentally came across Dr. McCarty's web site.

After my first session, I noticed a lot of movement in my mouth. Within a week, my jaw seemed to fall into place. I'm done with my third session of Advanced CNS Restoration and my headaches seem to be about 80% better. My bottom teeth are continuing to improve and my top teeth have not been loose at all in the last week.

L. Homersham Denver, Colorado

I am 62 years old. I have had migraine headaches most of my life until recently. About once per week I would end up in the hospital for a shot of Demerol. I saw Dr. McCarty two years ago and underwent Advanced CNS Restoration treatment. Since then, I have had greatly reduced severity and a rate of about one headache for every six months which may last for only an hour if I drink my water. I have not had even one trip to the hospital since my Advanced CNS Restoration. Thanks Dr. Jim

R. Emeigh Denver, Colorado

"I have had migraines since I was a young girl. I can recall missing school as a result of migraines and spent those days in a dark room with a cool washcloth draped over my forehead. Over the years, the pain increased as did the number of migraines I would experience. Shortly after the birth of my second son in 1999, I began having migraines on a monthly basis to now several times per week.'

"I have been to countless doctors, who have ordered more MRI's, MRA's, and CT scans than I care to keep track of. This in addition to several kinds of pain relievers, all of which only "bandaid" the pain."

"My boyfriend discovered Dr. McCarty's web site and within a year I was able to begin treatment.. I have just completed my first session of Advanced CNS Restoration and have seen immediate results beginning with breathing through my right nostril 100%. I have not had a headache or migraine in four days. My jaw pain decreased from an 8 to a 5. I anticipate further success with each treatment. As far as the balloon therapy, as uncomfortable as it initially seemed, I'd much rather have it than a migraine--any day. Thank You."

J. Beatty Wyoming

I have been having migraines and other headaches for about 2 years before finding Dr. McCarty. I got a prescription for Imetrex that helped relieve them, but they kept coming back. Then for about 6 prior to seeing Dr. McCarty, I had been suffering from severe post nasal drip, and then sinus congestion, sinus type headaches and toward the end, what felt like ear congestion, ringing in my right ear and finally 2 bouts with vertigo. Most all of the symptoms were on the right side of my head. I had received two rounds of antibiotics from the family doctor to determine if it was sinus infections. Those medications didn't do anything. The doctor prescribed an MRI which was negative or normal, so the conclusion was that my symptoms were probably migraine related and all I could do is to take Imetrex.

So I got on line and looked up migraines, finding Dr. McCarty's site. I also looked up TMJ and found that symptoms could include vertigo, ringing in the ears, and a sensation of ear congestion. I came to Dr. McCarty, feeling all of my symptoms the first day there, and after the first series of Advanced CNS Restoration treatments, I had no more sinus pressure, ear congestion, vertigo, and ringing was better. The post nasal drip had improved tremendously. I still had a couple of headaches that following month, but they felt different. And all the other symptoms stayed away. Now I'm going though the second series and my head feels great. I don't know how to describe it better than I just feel normal, which feels wonderful.

M. Jost Castle Rock, Colorado

Even though I had to undergo 5-6 sessions of Advanced CNS Restoration before experiencing a noticeable difference, I can honestly say that I now feel much better. My headaches have gone down significantly, and my TMJD symptoms have markedly improved as well. Dr. McCarty helps patients by getting to the root of the problem, not just treating the symptoms.

G. Kim Houston, Texas

"Before I met Dr. McCarty, pain was as much a part of me as the color of my eyes or the sound of my voice. I had suffered with headaches everyday of my life for the past 25 years. The only thing that changed was the degree of pain. Some of the headaches could be managed with over the counter medications while others were excruciating and could last for days on end."

"Pain stole my life, robbed me of energy, and was slowly killing of spirit. Over the years, I can't count how many days I sat alone in a dark room with an ice bag on my neck wondering how I was possibly going to endure this mind blowing agony again. How many tears did I cry wondering why I had been dealt this card? Why wasn't I strong enough to overcome it?"

"Officially I was diagnosed with migraines, chronic headaches, and a bulging disk in my neck which caused the headaches. But it took me almost 20 years to get a diagnosis and even longer to be taken seriously."

"I tried traditional medicine and was given high blood pressure medicine, and was told to "lighten up" and not take life so seriously. I saw countless chiropractors, had acupuncture, was treated for food allergies, yeast infections, was told I was allergic to the mold in the heating ducts where I worked, and was allergic to my husband. I slept on rolled up towels, special pillows, and we bought a new bed. I took herbs, vitamins, you name it, and I probably did it."

"I saw doctors who promised to "get to the down of this", but when the drugs didn't work or I developed side effects, they gave up and decided this was the best they could do and I'd just have to live with it. I saw a couple of neurologists; one discovered the bulging disk in my neck and then "suggested" I was a junkie because I needed something to control the now unbearable constant pain."

"Three months before I found Dr. McCarty I reached an all time low. The pain was very severe and constant. In the past, I had found some escape in sleep, and now I couldn't even sleep. I was exhausted, depressed, and in constant pain. I had no joy, no life. I was seriously desperate and losing hope of ever finding help. I didn't know how I was going to go on. In desperation I began to pray for God to either heal me or kill me. That's when I found Dr. McCarty's website. When I read it I felt like I was reading my life story."

"I was skeptical when I went for my first appointment and prayed that he was "for real" and that this wouldn't be just another empty promise or crazy scheme. I was in such a fragile state."

"When I met Dr. McCarty he was so compassionate and kind. He truly understood what it is like to live in chronic pain. He also understood just how desperate I was."

"After my first Advanced CNS Restoration treatment with Dr. McCarty I slept the entire night and my headache was gone! Can you imagine waking up after 25 years and not having a headache? No pain? After my second treatment, I felt even better. As I write this, I have completed just 4 days of treatment. It has been four weeks since my last treatment and I have not had a single headache!"

"For me, there are no words to describe how wonderful this is, what an incredible gift this is to me and all of the people in my life. I give thanks everyday to God for answering my prayer and for Dr. McCarty for being the vehicle for that prayer. I believe with all my heart that a miracle was performed in my life."

N. Candler Denver, Colorado

"What a difference four days makes. I have been to an orthopedist, a neurologist, three doctors, a dentist and was slated to see a psychiatrist and a physiatrist. Frustration was the best word to describe my situation. There is simply not enough room to list the medications I have been on the past three years."

"I am a former US Army soldier (13 years) who worked in Special Operations for over five years. I could not understand why I felt so depressed, was getting sick all the time, was constantly getting injured, and couldn't get out of bed in the morning."

"After my second Advanced CNS Restoration treatment, I got out of bed when my alarm went off, took my dog for a walk, and went to work. Sound small? I haven't been able to do those simple tasks in months. I had energy. I felt good! The next day? I slept the seven hours I try to allot myself every day, got up before my alarm went off, and attacked the day."

"Sunday night I almost blew off this appointment. Thank God he didn't allow me to do that."

K. Cordell Denver, Colorado

I suffered for over a year with daily migraines. My worst migraines greeted me with the dawn's first light.

My doctor's tried many of the popular medications and I soon began getting rebound headaches.

During my 12 months of continuous headaches I repeatedly asked my doctors "what had changed?" My doctors ruled out the many conditions that cause headaches but could offer no explanation for my headaches. "Try this medication" was a typical response.

I am happy to say that it has been over 4 months since my last migraine. I stopped taking all my "maintenance drugs" nearly 9 months ago but did take an occasional Imitrex during the treatment period.

It turns out my brain was dehydrating. A result of trauma to my head while snowboarding the “plates” in my skull had “locked up”.

During my first visit with Dr. Jim McCarty I began to understand what had changed. He offered me a plausible explanation for the change in my health and provided me a non-medication based solution - Advanced CNS Restoration.

I began treatments on the first visit and I went home without a headache. I went 50 days before experiencing any pressure in my skull indicating it was time for my next treatment. It took me 8 series involving deep and light muscle massage, chiropractic adjustments and "balloons". The balloons are used to re-position the skull plates.

I can only speak from my personal experience but I don't hesitate to suggest NCR as an alternative to the many treatments for TMJ, headaches, migraines and a variety of other ailments.

Best of luck. Headaches suck.

T. Genella Denver, Colorado

"I have been having really bad headaches, my head feels like it is in a vise. I have tension, pain, pressure in my head. It affects my whole body, My jaw pops sometimes, all of my joints hurt sometimes, and I have ringing in my ear. I have lots of dizzy spells, my balance is off, as if I am in a small boat all the time. I am nervous all the time, I can't sleep, and I can't relax. I have a hard time thinking sometimes, it is hard to stay focused. I can't remember very much, I have been in pain for about 15 years. "

"A doctor told me I would need surgery. I didn't think that was the solution to my problems. I tried pain medicines and natural remedies, which only eased the pain but didn't solve the problem. I didn't know what to do. In pain I decided to see what I could find on the internet. I found Dr. McCarty. So I went to see him. After a few days of Advanced CNS Restoration treatment, my pain and tension is almost completely gone. I feel almost normal again. Thanks very much!!"

G. Rader Fairborn, Ohio

"I have received Advanced CNS Restoration treatment from Dr. McCarty for my many chronic ailments ie, fibromyalgia, headaches, muscle tension, etc... The first two series left me with a lot less muscle tension (something I had for years) and headaches and a lot more hope."

"The third series didn't seem to have as good of results. I came back for the fourth and the results were much better. I had increased energy and far less pain."

"I have just finished my last series am looking forward to continued healing as the Advanced CNS Restoration treatments settle."

"I have also received allergy treatments that have helped my digestive and immune system as well."

"Thanks for your gentle approach Dr. McCarty."

L. Molina Half Moon Bay, California

"I was hit by a car when I was 6 years old and had suffered head problems and battled severe depression my whole life. The hood ornament of the car went through the top of my head, peeling back my scalp. I was thrown several feet. If I had been a fraction of an inch taller it would have killed me.

My major physiological complaints were headaches, tinnitus, ear pressure, and TMJ. Those four created a downward spiral of numerous other bizarre symptoms that had driven me to every kind of doctor you can name. I had jaw surgery in 1987 at the age of 35 which was supposed to fix everything. It corrected 5% of my problems, the popping and clicking could be heard by everyone when I ate. So 95% of my previous problems still loomed plus I had to listen to thousands of fibrous tissue creak and grind every time I opened my mouth due to the trauma of invasive surgery.

Since then, I've had numerous physicals and evaluations which turned up "nothing wrong with me", leaving me to deal with the torment of my life-that I must be a worthless nut case, a notion I felt morbidly but NEVER conclusively accepted about myself.!

On the morning of January 17, 2003 I was in the blackest pit that I had ever been in and I had seen some black pits that I wouldn't wish off on my worst enemy! I was dangerously depressed and praying for God to help me. My daughter and I had recently been discussing bipolar disorder as a possible label for my condition; so I got on the computer to search for treatment options since my 20 year old daughter, Amanda, had said to me 5 days earlier, "Mom, this is you! The only thing that I found that I had not tried was "Advanced CNS Restoration " so I called Dr McCarty at 9:00 that morning. No one answered so I left a message. Ten minutes later Dr. McCarty himself returned my call and we talked a little about what was going on. I told him that I had read up on the procedure, that it sounded good, and that my only real question was when he could see me. I was bracing myself for an answer along the line of 3 months to a year.

He happened to have a cancellation that morning and said, "I can see you at 11:00."He was actually surprised when I said that I would be there, but I told him I was in dire straits and that what he did was the only thing I could find that I had not tried already. I had my first treatment that day. My husband, Dan, was so impressed with what I told him about it, he went with me the next day to get his 1st treatment. Being a truck driver he suffers from tremendous low back pain and he also has dyslexia which is on the list of cures that have been experienced by people who have been through the treatment.

I completed my 5th series of Advanced CNS Restoration last week, and I am happy to report an 85% improvement in the BIG FOUR- HEADACHES, TINNITIS, EAR PRESSURE, AND TMJ. I've had my food and environmental allergies removed with NAET. I also had several emotional issues that were effectively treated with NAET. Advanced CNS Restoration and the allergy treatments have been powerful tools in helping me to conquer this bizarre and debilitating condition that had plagued my life since I can remember.

I'm glad that I did not let what appeared to be failed treatments to lock me into the mode of skepticism that could have paralyzed me of my courage to continually move on to the next thing. All of the prior efforts I made to conquer my problem were in no way failures. They were tools that got me from where I was then to where I am now for which I will always be grateful.

I'll never forget how hopeless I was on the morning of January 17, 2003. When Dr. McCarty said to me, "A lady from Texas cancelled this morning and I can see you at 11:00", I saw the light of HOPE and IT SURE LOOKED GOOD! When it's all dark, all it takes is a little bit of LIGHT to make a difference, so THANKS, DR. McCarty, for JUST BEING YOU!

And to all you folks out there considering this treatment, KEEP ON KEEPING ON AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

"Shortly after our five year old daughter, EmaLee, received her immunizations for school, she contracted viral encephalitis. She had a extreme headache and a fever of 102-105 degrees nearly every day for three months. For the next two years, EmaLee suffered from severe chronic daily headaches and vomiting. She was hospitalized on several occasions and evaluated by numerous physicians and specialists including a Chronic Pain Clinic. the specialists experimented with a multitude of medications, but nothing provided relief. The only time EmaLee experienced relief was following a spinal tap ( for about 8-12 hours)."

"During the course of these two years, EmaLee was diagnosed with cardiac arrhythmia, and sleep apnea. She slept upright in a chair with oxygen. EmaLee's personality had changed from being a bubbly, joyful, girl who was full of energy and sunshine, to a quite, timid girl who struggled to find pleasure in childhood things. She failed to make progress in her schoolwork, and she was actually losing ground. She was diagnosed with a cognitive disorder specifically in areas of memory, processing, and attention. EmaLee's school schedule was modified so that every 45 minutes she could lay down and rest for 15 minutes. She received individual instruction much of the time, especially when the class was engaged in a loud activity that aggravated her headache. At 1 PM every day, she was dismissed, because she would sleep for several hours in the afternoon."

"In the fall of 2002, we took EmaLee to see a neurosurgeon in Oregon. It was proposed that we have a shunt put in to relieve the cerebral spinal fluid pressure. Ultimately the medical team in Oregon decided against a shunt and prescribed more drugs. We were told that her condition was not curable."

'When we returned to Colorado, we sought help from Dr. Jim. After the first treatment, EmaLee was headache free for several hours. She responded the same way to the Advanced CNS Restoration treatment as she had to the spinal tap. (only there were no needles and anesthesia and risk of paralysis or infection to the brain) After 3 treatments, she slept through the night-for the first time in two years! After EmaLee's second series she was headache free for 17 days! She was cheerful and energetic; the EmaLee we knew was coming back."

"EmaLee has been nearly headache free since Christmas. She is able to enjoy the whole day at school and comes home with energy to ride her bike and play with her siblings. Her handwriting has improved dramatically, and she is making progress in school.

"My experience here with Dr. McCarty has been very positive. I have felt completely welcomed and comfortable here. After the first day of Advanced CNS Restoration treatment I thought I might be feeling better. then after the second day I was sure of the improvement. My muscles in my neck and upper back began to relax. I honestly can't remember when my muscles were this relaxed. I can breathe. I truly feel that there is hope for me. Thank you Dr. McCarty"

All my life I have lived with a very hard to live with and understand mother. One day she would be able to hide from the world the pain that she was feeling with her jaw. The next day, she was a suicidal mess. Her only emotion was sadness. It was hard for me waking up to. She always talked of the pain and the hurt that she had in her head. No one seemed to understand her. She felt so alone. I was 19 when my mother began her treatment. I will never forget the joy in my mom’s voice when she called me at my home in Grand Junction. She told me how much better she was feeling. It brought tears to my eyes when she told me "someone understands". She said that she felt no pain in her head after 50 years of living with it. I have been given many gifts in my life, but the greatest gift I have ever been given is the gift of my mother's happiness. It can only go up from here.

"My son Michael, age 15, and I were in tears the night before we stopped by to speak to Dr. McCarty. Headaches with vomiting, tooth and jaw pain, and motion sickness had become a daily occurrence and we were at our wits end."

We stopped by Dr. McCarty's office out of curiosity on our way home from an appointment with an oral surgeon who had said removing Michael's wisdom teeth could help his tooth and jaw pain but most likely would not stop his headaches."

"After Dr. McCarty explained to us how the tooth and jaw pain, headaches, vomiting, and motion sickness were all related and treatable with the Advanced CNS Restoration balloon treatment; we couldn't wait to get started."

"After Michael's first and second series his headaches are better and his daily vomiting, tooth and jaw pain, and motion sickness are gone!"

"We're still amazed that after many years of doctors, time and money and false hopes that Michael has finally found relief. If not for Dr. McCarty; Michael would have had his wisdom teeth out 2 months ago, been on a daily dose of Zantac and Tylenol and still be suffering from daily headaches, vomiting and motion sickness."

"We are looking forward to completing the treatment and writing a new success story."

S. Coe Denver, Colorado

"I suffered with Migraine headaches for the past 46 years. I have had daily headaches for the past 6 months and missed an average of 3 1/2 days of work a week."

"There is not a medicine, herb, or conventional medical treatment that I have not tried at least once. So, my wife and I decided that we had nothing to lose in trying a treatment called "Advanced CNS Restoration."

"I have not had one Migraine since I started the treatment 4 days ago. I am not naive enough to believe that my headaches have been cured with just 4 days of treatment. But, I do believe that I have taken the first big step towards a cure."

D. Holder Dallas, Texas

"Please see attached (above) testimonial. I would like to add that I have not had a Migraine since my first testimonial. To quote my wife, "You now have a life."

"To say I believe in Advanced CNS Restoration for treatment and cure of Migraines would be understated. I wish that I had learned of this procedure years ago. I highly recommend it to you."

"P.S. As a side effect, I can now blow my nose. I have not been able to do that since it was broken a second time in 1954."

D. Holder Dallas, Texas

"This is my first treatment with Advanced CNS Restoration. I have had migraine headaches almost daily for 2 years. After 4 days of treatments I have not had a migraine. Also I had pain at the base of my neck all the time. There is now no pain there. I am hopeful that what has started will continue!"

LOW BACK

Hello, Dr. Jim!

You treated me more than a year ago but for only 1 session. After only 1 session, you made me feel normal again, able to concentrate, and verbally communicate at a normal rate (without all those pauses and "uh...." in my sentences.) and free from the nagging back and neck pain.

In the previous years, I tried to get any doctor to even listen to my complaints. You have no idea how hard I tried to explain to my regular doctors what I was feeling; one GP actually said that I might have a brain tumor "but we can address that after we get your diabetes under control". I dropped him as my GP that same week. Another doctor (one I actually respect) suggested that my loss of finding words could be a sign of Alzheimer’s. I have had MRI's of my head, put on anti-depressants, suggested to see a psychiatrist. All of which never helped me a small bit.

Then I met you. After 4 days of Advanced CNS Restoration, I felt like a regular person. My back pain was gone, I could turn my head 90 degrees in both directions, and the constant headache pain, head pressure, and ear ringing stopped.

Of course, the symptoms were gone, but the cause still existed, and I fell back into chronic pain and mental disorientation after only 2 weeks. I felt quite a letdown. I then began looking for a local chiropractor that might provide the same treatments. I did find one individual that practiced the same "balloon" treatment and he was very good at that, but he was not as good a chiropractor as you are. I paid him $750 for a week of treatments but I never felt any relief. He tried very hard, usually spending 2 hours painfully manipulating my face, jaw, neck, back and leg muscles. Another big letdown...

I went back to my GP, complained of ear fullness, ringing, and back pain. I was sent to a physical therapist for my back and sent to an ENT for my ear pressure/ringing. My lower back did improve. My ears did not. The ENT temporarily made a slit in one ear drum, after months of nasal spraying did nothing. For the 4 or so days that my eardrum remained open, the pressure disappeared (but not the ringing--it actually got much worse) and I felt I could even hear without much concentration. I talked about having tubes temporarily/permanently placed in my ears, but I wasn't so sure that that was the solution since the problem could re-appear after the tubes fell out. Even if they stayed in, I would have to worry about possible infections or that even after the tubes came out that I might not heal up completely. My ENT then suggested that I go to another ENT and I went to him.

The new ENT came to the same conclusion as the first; that I did not have any visible problems with my ears and that I was suffering from tinnitus. But when I mentioned that I believed that I was suffering from TMJ, he agreed wholeheartedly. He then referred me to an orthodontist that specialized in TMJ treatment. He was out-of-network so I would have to pay the whole tab. Guess what I did? Yup, I went to him and he impressed me with both his knowledge and confidence that he could help me with a splint (he reminded me of how I felt about you). So I forked over the $3700 (in installments) and I have been under his care for the last month and a half. Since starting the treatment, most, if not all, of my jaw muscles feel normal and pain-free. I plan on completing the 5 month treatment and will probably get braces for my teeth after that. I know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

I also seeing a standard chiropractor and she has said that she contacted you regarding how you treated me so well in Colorado. Feel free to pass along any details of my case to her (I believe her name is Corrine, and she works for Dr. Eberhard at the Compete Spine and Wellness Center in Newport Beach, CA.). I told her that your techniques might not be so readily available, but worth the effort.

I am 99% sure that the reason I felt so much better was through you chiropractic techniques. I am not so convinced that the balloon treatments helped me, but I could be wrong. I have touted your chiropractic skill to each and every chiropractor and doctor that I have seen since I visited you (at least 10 doctors!).

Are you aware of anyone in California that get the same results as you do? I am still quite desperate despite my progress. I still get depressed about once a week, and spend much time lying down around the house, avoiding unnecessary social situations outside my family circle. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks for all your help in the past. I am truly grateful.

Sincerely,

Leo Beyers Irvine, California

"I came with my husband Dick to see Dr. Jim after he was recommended by a friend. After watching him work on Dick, and I saw the results, I thought that I would like to see what he could do for me."

"I have had a pain in my right hip for a few years, and have been going to a chiropractor two times a week for over a year, with little improvement. Dr. Jim gave me two treatments and I am pain free at last. I can get out of bed without pain, and can get in and out of the car like a kid."

"Thank you Dr. Jim."

"I came to Dr.Jim because of terrible pain in my right hip, right leg would go to sleep. I could not stand up more than 5 minutes because my right hip would lock up and the previous week I was in so much pain that I could not walk my dog more than one block."

"The same day I had the Advanced CNS Restoration head treatment on the table, my pain went away in the right hip and leg. That night and the next few days, I can now bend over and tie my shoes without pain, my right foot is alive and not asleep. I don't seem to have as large of an appetite and have strenuous energy. This same week someone at my office said I looked like a new person. I'm not as irritable, can concentrate better, and just feel relaxed and am smiling and happy."

T. Potter Richardson, Texas

"I came in for lower back pain and shoulder pain. I had no idea I was seeing other than a typical chiropractor at first. After our consultation, I agreed to Advanced CNS Restoration. In less than 1 week I can now do yard work (weed eating and mowing etc) all day and still go out at night without pain. This is the first time in 25 years I can say that. After the first treatment, the pain in my back, hip, and left leg left and has not returned.

M. Tennyson Richardson, Texas

"This was my first series of treatments by Advanced CNS Restoration. I decided to get treatment because my son had done so well with his first series of treatments."

"After the third day I found the hip problem I had that had been chronic for 30 years disappeared. My mind seems sharper and clearer. I bought a book in the afternoon of over 200 pages and read the whole thing in a few hours. It seemed easy. I have never done this before."

D. Reynolds August 27, 1998 Jonesboro, Georgia

"I came to Dr. Jim McCarty with continuous pain in my lower back and hips, as well as pain down my legs. Dr. Jim told me about the various problems I had when he did some x-rays. He also mentioned about the cranial work that he did. He said I needed some fluid to get to my disc in the lower back where I was having all my problems. He mentioned that the fluid I needed was supposed to come from the fluid around the brain."

"I let him do the work to my head and within two days the pain in my back was almost gone. Continued Advanced CNS Restoration cranial work allowed my back to have no pain at all. It has been 16 days and I have no pain whatsoever in any part of my back or hips or legs. This is a blessing for me, for I have had this pain for 10 years. Thanks Dr. Jim, God is working through you."

Sleep Apnea

After my first Advanced CNS Restoration treatment, I slept better than I have in years.

I also suffer from food allergies which have lessened by about 80%. My energy has increased dramatically. This really Works!

I found Dr. McCarty while doing a search for alternative cures for MS. I had been diagnosed in 1996 and have symptoms infrequently since then.

This fall (2005) my right arm and leg were feeling weird and just not working right. I decided to give Advanced CNS Restoration a try as I do not care for the Mainstream "maintenance" drugs that are being prescribed for MS. I spoke with Dr. McCarty several times on the phone and he was always helpful and never seemed rushed. I had also read all the testimonials on his web site, wanting to believe, but doubting.

When I arrived on a Monday morning, I was having considerable difficulty walking. During my first appointment on Tuesday, I had to excuse myself to go to the bathroom, and noticed when I got to the hallway, I had been walking normal. That made me think about my walking, so I went back to the way I was, but continued to improve throughout the week and went back to work, construction, when I got back to Seattle the next Monday.
