I started seeing Dr. Augustine four years ago after being diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease. After hearing amazing things about him, I decided to put my trust in him. It was the best decision I ever made. He CURED me of my autoimmune disease and also helped me through a terrible back injury. Recently, I developed high blood pressure, so I went back to Dr. Augustine before starting any medication. He's done it again!
After receiving his PEMF treatments (oxygen into my cells) and excellent supplements targeting those areas of my body that had caused my high blood pressure, my blood pressure is now back to normal. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Augustine. He's the BEST.

I have been seeing Dr Jim since 2015 when my chiropractor of 30 years passed away suddenly. I never thought I would find another caring and compassionate chiropractor but then I found Dr Jim and his amazing office. He is very knowledgeable in nutrition AND Biocranial AND Chiropractic. He also has the best bedside manner I have ever experienced. He goes out of his way to make you feel like you matter which most doctors don't.
I am blessed to have found such an amazing Doctor to help me navigate thru life with stress and pain. What a fantastic man and Dr.! Please call his office today and see how he can help you feel better and be stronger! Thank you so much Dr Jim- I am forever grateful.

I'm blown away by Dr. Augustine's wealth of knowledge and expertise.but especially his personable care. It can be so daunting to go through health challenges, but Dr. Augustine truly fills you with hope and confidence with specific strategic plans to help your body overcome holistically. I can't thank him enough. I have been using his services for over a year. He inspires me to live well to overcome my health challenges. I have overcome many problems and have avoided a surgery and a tooth abstraction. Thank you.

For all around wellness of you and family. This is the best. I've been treated by Dr. Augustine for many years now. My son of 8 years has been coming here since he was 15 days old for bio cranial adjustments and he hasn't seen a hospital ever. If he comes down with a bug, he'll get rid of it with no problem. I also see Dr. Augustine. A while back was diagnosed with kidney stones with a primary physician and he prescribed medication for it.
Well I broke out in hives with it and so I came here. After suffering for more than three months with pain. Came here and in three days time, my pain was completely gone. Today I came in for tingling sensation in my right arm. He sent me to get x-rays few steps away from here and results were sent to him, stat! Evaluated my case, adjusted me in no time and bam! I feel better already. I can only imagine coming here a few more times more and I'll be 100% for sure! I LOVE THIS PLACE! Elaine and Dr. James Augustine are the very best!
