I have had several chiropractors over the years to assist in treatment for longstanding health challenges from injuries. He reads my body and intuits its requirements in remarkable ways that move me closer and closer to the vibrant health I thought was out of reach. Deep gratitude is the best sentiment to describe receiving Dr. Tucker’s exceptional patient care and support.

Dr. Tucker has great energy. He is gentle and sincerely cares about his patients. He has many years of experience and demonstrates a very sound understanding of the human body. He has been a yoga instructor and explores other healing modalities. He is open minded and fair in all his dealings. I bless the day I found him and I extend kudos to Dr. Christine Maclean who chose Dr. Tucker to take over her practice when she left Nelson. She could not have found better!

I have multiple orthopedic issues and am an older person. Steve reliably helps me with chronic issues and I always walk out of his office feeling much better than when I walked in. In addition to his professional expertise, Steve also engages with patients in a very authentic, encouraging manner. I consider him on my “team” that I need to keep the best quality of life as possible.

For years I have avoided chiropractors as I found my first experiences to be ineffective. In a desperate place, my friend suggested Dr Steve Tucker and I was amazed when he provided immediate relief. I have now been seeing him as needed for a couple of years, and he has been able to get results quickly every time. My husband also sees him now for complex neck issues and has experienced positive changes after years of pain.

Fantastic experience, he works like magic! No really I mean it! I have not been able to put my hand behind my back for months. I have gone to physio, I have been stretching, foam rolling, tennis ball rolling, you name it, I tried it. Nothing was helping. I went to see Steve and after the first session I could get my hand behind, to the middle of my back. Also while I was there he gave me a complete tuneup. I want people to realize that chiropractic is not just for backs, its for the entire body and Steve is amazing!! In the past Steve has not only kept my back, neck and shoulders in fantastic shape, he has maintained my hips, wrists, fingers and even solved foot problems. He is really knowledgeable and really cares about his patients! I highly recommend him!

Dr tucker is great! I went in to have my back adjusted due to months of pain. Pain where I had to stop working out, bending down was painful. And I’m 27. Not a way to live. He did a full assessment, as I thought it might be something more serious. Adjustments were made and I walked out feeling a little better, and the next day I was sore. But the real miracle happened on day 2. I felt like a wet noodle! First time in MONTHS I could comfortably bend down. Very professional, extremely knowledgeable, and each session is unique to adjust your specific back. I’ll continue to go back!

Honestly, I read the reviews and think how can I possibly see someone knowledgeable and intuitive to help me undo what was done (I had my back and neck adjusted and now have neck tensions and right thoracic pain for 7 weeks), I'm ready to go as far as i need to get a proper evaluation and care.

"When I started going to Dr. Tucker in 2017, I had horrible, paralyzing neck pain that I’d been dealing with before... with other chiropractors for years with little success. Since going to him for treatment I’ve not only never had another extremely painful neck pain like I did before, but it is so much more manageable now where I only need to go in every couple of months or so. The hot shooting pain in my neck is completely gone and I really only go and get adjusted when I am feeling a bit stiff or have injured myself somehow. Dr. Tucker is great at what he does and has been recommended to several of my friends whenever I hear they are looking for a chiropractor!"read more

Dr. Tucker has helped to make my quality of life so much better over the years I have been seeing him. He shows that he really cares about me and my body, and has a fantastic lighthearted easygoing personality. thank you, Dr Tucker!

I have suffered years of chronic back, hip and shoulder pain – regular visits with Dr. Tucker have made huge improvements. His treatments are not jarring or quick cracking style Chiropractic adjustments which for me lead to more inflammation – his treatments are gentle yet super effective- he listens intently to understand how you are doing on the whole and not just where it hurt. I always leave feeling taller and even at the worst times with flare ups and when I threw my back out – he was able to fix it in one to 2 sessions ! Highly – HIGHLY recommended! And I’ve seen many Chiropractic practitioners over the 19 years I’ve been living with chronic pain! Try it – you won’t regret it!

Dr. Tucker takes the time to listen to your symptoms, discusses treatment options and explains what each treatment is targeting. Keeps good treatment records and builds his treatment plan on history of what works and what doesn’t.

I was very nervous about seeing a chiropractor for the first time in my 30’s. Dr. Tucker is so compassionate, confident and professional; my first appointment was amazing – providing immediate pain relief and peace of mind in my capacity for healing – no “cracking” required. I really love that he provides such holistic care, sharing insights for overall body and nervous system health. I take my whole family for regular “tune-ups” just cause it feels so good and always feels like we’ve been given a reset for a happy, healthy month.

Danu J

This is the best Chiropractor treatment I have ever received. Steve is so intuitive to my health issues. It not only improves my physical issues it also addresses my nervous system and overall mental health and well being. Really Grateful.

I recommend chiropractic care to nearly all my friends and family. The health benefits are inestimable! I refer locally to Dr. Tucker all the time; his attention to detail and individual client care is amazing! He is a true gift to this community.

Addie S

Steve was personable, kind, and clearly very knowledgeable. With a solid grounding in the science, and ready to follow that knowledge along with his intuition and experience to find an effective, efficient solution to my complicated, unique, and difficult issues. I would trust him above others to work out complicated issues that he hadn’t seen before.

I am very satisfied with the treatments and enjoy the professional relationship with Dr. Steve. The treatments help keep me active in the activities I love and need to do.

One of the best, if not the best chiropractor I’ve been to. I appreciate the holistic approach and so does my body! Thank you!

Dr. Tucker’s attitude for getting me help outside of his office, as well as his own services was incredible. He recommended a yoga studio, instructor and specific class for me and followed up to be sure I had found this, and that I was finding it helpful. In doing so, he brought me to a place where I could take care of my issue and didn’t need to come back to see him. Dr. Tucker put his own business 2nd so that I could carry on without his services. This to me, was extraordinary. He truly cares and wants the best life for his patients.

Steve is a great gentle Chiro, he has helped me with numerous issues, I would highly recommend him.

Dear Dr Tucker,

I has been such a great joy and pleasure choosing you as my chiro.  Even though I was not so sure about the results, I am so very happy I did so.

I just want to say an honest thank you for being there when I needed you the most both physically and emotionally.  In my book, you are both a very good chiropractor and a psychologist.

When I first came to see you, I was so broken apart but you put all the pieces back together, what a guy!

I would highly recommend you to the whole world.  I would scream out loud that Dr Tucker is the best chiro ever.

Dr Tucker, I cannot compare the past and the present anymore because there is no more past, there is only the present.  With your help, I took my life back again.

Thank you once again.  You are such a good listener and a great chiro.

Thanks Nancy for your support.

Neck Pain

Having suffered an injury to my neck in my early teenage years, it only took a few visits to Carryduff Chiropractic to have me feeling much better.  I intend to pursue a regular course of treatments over the next few months to continue the improvements made and maintain benefit.

Back Pain

I am a doctor with ten years postgraduate experience.  My wife was the first of us to come to Steve.  I watched her in pain with her back for years unable to help anymore.  She had metal rods inserted in her spine at the age of 14 for a thoracic curve.  Spinal surgeons could  do no more and physio was little help.  After only a few months of treatments I realized she was complaining much less about her back pain.  We are expecting our 3rd child next Tuesday and I can honestly say that she has been extremely healthy during this pregnancy whereas she was in constant back pain with the previous ones.  I myself was suffering from recurrent flare ups of back pain made worse by performing long surgical procedures.  I was kidding myself that I was OK, but after three months of regular treatments with Steve the difference is like day and night.

Thanks Steve and Claire

 

Dr T Farnan

Back and Leg Pain (Sciatica)

I had been suffering with a displaced vertebra in my lower spine for over 60 years.  I must have injured my back as a child.  A few months ago the pain was unbearable as I had sciatica down my left leg caused by the back injury and also pain in my neck and shoulders.  Since coming to Steve for treatment I am virtually a new person – no more excruciating sciatica or back pain, better sleep.  I know this problem is not going to disappear, but I intend to keep on attending chiropractic sessions as frequently as Steve tells me and as long as is necessary.  I honestly thought I was becoming not only old, but also useless.  He has given me back my life.  Thank you Steve and thank you Claire.

Gratefully yours,

Back Pain and Achilles Problems in an Elite Runner

Reason for consulting our office: Long term back pain (14 years) and achilles problems

Number of visits or length of time before results became apparent: A month or so

Your impression of the general benefits of chiropractic care, and specifically how it helped:  I have been able to get back to a programme of regular running (55-60 miles per week) and am training for a marathon in December.  I also won the Irish National half-marathon championships in September 2007!

G Ganiel

Back and Leg Pain

Reason for consulting our office: Chronic back pain, shooting in my lower back, travelling down my leg.

Number of visits or length of time before results became apparent: 2 or 3 visits

Your impression of the general benefits of chiropractic care, and specifically how it helped: Initially, I had fears about being treated by a chiropractor, but these turned out to be completely unfounded.  The treatment is so gentle and afterwards you feel like a new person!  Before being treated, my back pain was so bad I was randomly bursting into tears.  Now that is all gone.  I no longer have serious back problems and am physically able to cope with the pressures of work.

Further comments regarding your chiropractic experience: I can thoroughly recommend Dr Tucker as a chiropractic practitioner.  His methods and approach really put you at ease.  I am very grateful for the care and warmth Alive Chiropractic has shown me during my treatment and intend to continue my visits to maintain the health of my spine.

Back Pain

I started attending the practice with Steve in August 2005 after I had suffered pain in my back for several years.

This pain was so severe sometimes I had to get help putting my socks on and I lost confidence in my body’s ability to do basic tasks as I always felt a weakness and I was scared to bend and pick things up.

After 4-5 sessions with Steve I was aware of the feeling that my back was getting stronger and my confidence has now returned completely, in August this year I was able to redecorate a bedroom in the house (stripping paper and painting etc), something I would not have considered trying to do 12 months ago.

I continue to attend the practice on a regular basis and I appreciate what Steve has done for me.

Thank you for your help.

K. McKinney

Back Pain

When I first came to see Steve, I was a “non-believer!”  As an “old” nurse, I have had a bad back for many years and believed it would be that way for the rest of my life.  After only 6 sessions I felt a considerable improvement and now, after only four months I can honestly say my lower back is pain-free and I have so much more energy.  I am sleeping better too and according to my husband, I don’t snore any more either!  Maybe there’s life in the old girl after all!!  Thank you Steve

Back Pain

After several years of contact sports and over training, I found that my lower back was becoming more and more stiff each morning.  After approximately 4 months of adjustments, my life has changed dramatically, in that I can again spring out of bed in the morning and bend and pick up my 2-year-old daughter.  Overall this has improved my quality of life and that of my entire family.  I am now playing for another season of sport after believing that last season was my swan song.  I am now a firm believer and spread the word to others.

D. Rose

Lower Back Pain

Reasons for consulting our office:  Lower back pain and discomfort.

Number of visits or length of time before results became apparent:  After 1st manipulation.

Your impression of the general health benefits of chiropractic care, and specifically how it helped:  I was a sceptic before treatment, however after my GP wasn’t able to help, I was recommended to Dr Tucker.  I was impressed with the results, speed of results and I have had no recurrence of my lower back problems.

The treatment also had a positive effect on my breathing as I was diagnosed as mild asthmatic.  I haven’t needed to use my inhaler since the treatment.

Further comments regarding your chiropractic experience:  I would unreservedly recommend and have done so already, anyone with back problems to seek chiropractic advice and have recommended Dr Tucker on numerous occasions.

Back Pain

My back hasn’t felt as good in years.  I have suffered with a bad back for over 10 years.  After 3 months of seeing Steve I feel like a new man.

Low Back Injury

Reasons for consulting our office:  Injury to lower back during work.

Number of visits or length of time before results became apparent:  3 visits

Your impression of the general health benefits of chiropractic care, and specifically how it helped:  Health improved and mobility increased.  Also posture improved and general problems with injury to lower back decreased.

M. McCorriston

Back Pain

When the “traditional” doctor had failed me, chiropractic care got me off the floor, off painkillers and allowed me to go to work without crying, without lying on the floor for periods.  Even better, it allowed me to put on my socks all by myself!

 

K. Loughrey

Back Pain

I used to sit in work and moan,
Because I was in such pain.
Then I met a man named Steve,
Now things just aren’t the same.

‘Abused my back’ is what they said,
And I could not disagree.
Karting, kayaking, BMX,
Water and jet ski!

It seemed that fun came at a price,
My back had had enough.
I eased up on the mental sports,
But it left me in a huff.

So, with some persuasion from the doc,
And a friendly smile from Claire.
I can once again be the guy I was,
Living life without a care.

So I say ‘thank you’ to you both,
For doing what you do.
Safe to say you’ve given back my life,
And my girlfriend thanks you too!

D. McGuiness

Pain, Low Energy and Stress

Reason for consulting our office: I was referred by a patient who comes to your practice, his results were amazing which I saw myself.

Number of visits or length of time before results became apparent: 5 visits

Your impression of the general benefits of chiropractic care, and specifically how it helped: It has improved my health in a lot of ways, for example, in work my concentration has improved, my temperament is a lot cooler, I can deal with things a lot better, my sleep is great, I hardly ever toss and turn through the night, I feel I have more energy , I don’t have the aches and pains that I had before, I can now go on walks without having to sit down after 10 minutes.  My stress levels seem to reduce after each adjustment.

Further comments regarding your chiropractic experience: I attended a different chiropractor before I joined the Alive practice, and unfortunately found to be non beneficial to me at all and very commercialized in every way as the chiropractor was very impersonal, unlike Steve Tucker.  This did put me off attending any other practice, until I came to Steve.  I must say I would recommend Alive in every way to anyone who is suffering any ailment.

A. McKinney

Disc Herniation

Reasons for consulting our office: Prolapsed discs and curvatures in spine.

How long have you had this problem: years

Your impression of the general health benefits of chiropractic care, and specifically how it helped: If it wasn’t for Steve Tucker, I believe I would now be in a wheelchair.  He was able to get me to walk and told me to exercise regularly as this helps with degeneration.  This I have done.  I can’t thank you enough for the care you gave me.

L. McAleese

Neck Pain and Stress Reduction

I have been having chiropractic treatment for many years, initially for neck problems (which have long gone).  Continued adjustments have kept my mobility at a premium and my physical and emotional health have improved.  I always find I am much less stressed after adjustments.

V. McClenaghan

Back and Neck Pain, Improved Sleep and Emotional Well-being

Following a back injury I came here in a great deal of distress.  The work on my back has not only sorted out my back and neck, but contributed to my overall health in terms of sleep and emotional balance.  I have noted huge improvements in all my family members who have attended and in my own case, people have commented on how much my mobility, posture and overall vitality have improved.  Thank you!

A. Hughes

Whiplash

After a RTA (road traffic accident) 7 weeks ago, I could hardly move.  After 6 weeks of intensive chiropractic care, I am now 80-90% freer in movement and general well-being and hope to return to work shortly.  I will keep attending chiro for my general well-being.

 

Rebecca D.

Neck and back pain with numbness in legs.  Irritability.

Reasons for consulting our office:  Neck pain, middle/lower back pain , numbness down front and sides of thighs.  Inability to lie flat on my back with legs outstretched.  Irritability.

Number of visits or length of time before results became apparent:  2

Your impression of the general health benefits of chiropractic care, and specifically how it helped:  I have suffered with back pain so long that I had accepted it as normal.  At night, I slept on my back with my knees bent in the air to stop the numbness in my legs.  After only 2 sessions I felt my body change dramatically.  I felt relaxed and comfortable.  I was able to lie flat without pain or numbness.  I lost the irritability and my concentration improved greatly.

Further comments regarding your experience:  I was always very cynical of chiropractors after hearing horror stories from physios I’d attended (none of which helped!)  Steve Tucker was my last port of call for myself and daughter and the changes have been amazing.  Steve is trustworthy.  He never calls you back for unnecessary treatments unless you genuinely need them.
