I had never herd of chiropractic before. A passenger on the ferry to Gozo told me about Nicolo and I paid him a visit the day after, as my lower back was making my life miserable. I could not even walk normally and was limping noticeably.

When I met Nicolo, I called him ‘back guru’ as I coulnd’t even remember the word chiropractic.

The first visit was the longest. I was very skeptical and full of questions.Nicolo was great and calm. He answered all my questions with simple language and reassured me at every response. He helped me understanding the reason of my low back pain and the structures involved.

Eventually, I decided to let him treat me.

After the first visit, I noticed mild improvement but it was starting to hurt again just on the day of the second appointment. At the second visit, I was still not 100% confident with “this guys” but Nicolocalmed me down and explained that perhaps one or two more treatments were necessary to see long-lasting improvmeents. So, I let him treat me again and after that second treatment I was shocked how better my back felt. I could walk normally again, without a limp and with no pain.

I managed to see Nicolo three more times before the end of my holiday and i was smuiling all the way; feeling great.

I promised myself that i will use chiropractic care regularly to keep my back, joints and muscles lose and subtle.

I would like you to know that I would highly recommend you to anyone. You are extremely professional, thorough and honest.

I have had neck pain for months and visited many doctors and specialists who only told me it was caused by muscular stress. I was offered lots of medications but nothing seemed to help. At one point, my neck pain was so bad that I could not sleep anymore or without waking up several times during the night because of the pain.

A friend suggested to visit Nicolo and so I did.

At first I was scared and skeptical but in the end I decided that I had nothing to lose and I was desperate.

At the first neck adjustment I cried and yelled because I thought of ending up in more pain but, when I went to be that night, i slept like a baby.

I could not believe it!

After weeks of sleepless nights, I could sleep again, pain free and in the morning my neck felt like nothing had ever happened. I could more it without any discomfort. I phoned Nicolo after 2 days, (I think it was at 6am) almost crying, thanking him for the “miracle” he had done on me.

I visited him four time again, at the Gozo clinic and my neck was absolutely great. No pain and no stiffness.

I promised Nicolo, and myself, to keep visiting him regularly throughout the years and to adopt a new lifestyle, with more exercises and a better diet.

Dr Orlando, you literally saved me from a life of pain and i wish I had come to you first.

    I Would Highly Recommend Dr. Nicolo Orlando! This is my Experience. I have been suffering from shoulder pain for these last 8 years. Tried to cure myself with medicine, massage, physiotherapy, but nothing helped to take away my chronic pain! Around a year ago, I went to visit Dr. Orlando, and he calmly heard my case. Professionally, he explained how l should take care of myself by good postures, healthy food and exercise. After his first Natural treatment, I already was feeling much better! After a week l had another session, and with the second treatment my shoulder pain gradually started to decrease! Fifteen days later, after my last visit to Dr. Orlando, all the pain I had for the last 7 whole years stopped immediately!!!! Thank You so Much Dr. Orlando for your Chiropractic Treatment. It is Miraculous!!\r\nI definitely recommend you to others and I am defenitely going to book another session in the upcoming months as your treatments are the BEST! MIRACLES

    I had several months of back and groin pain and was only prescribed painkillers by my doctor. After a very painful and debilitating episode I made appointment with Nicolo, with low or no expectations, to be honest. I walked out of there a different person. The difference in just half an hour was amazing. I do the exercises he recommended and the changes in behaviour he thought necessary and I’m pain free. I had a follow up and treatment and I’m pretty much done! No weekly appointments or dragged out treatments. If I get another problem Nicolo is on speed dial!

    Dr Orlando, I want to thank you very much for treating my dizziness & headaches. After the first visit there was already a notable improvement. It was my first time going to a chiropractor but I can vouch for it. I highly recommend him and keep up the good work. Thanks & Regards, Nathan

    Thank you Nicolo for your excellent service. I suffer from chronic back pain and always feel brand new and relieved after a session. All back suffers should try Nicolo instead of going straight to the meds.

    Dr. Orlando, From the first visit I noticed a difference in my posture and my ever present lower back pain. Doing the simple exercises you gave me just feels right. I know I have a serious muscle problem, which I’m sure you will help very much with. Thank you again, and although there was some pain involved, I’m looking forward to our second session!

    For some long time I was suffering from some severe pain in my neck and shoulder limiting my ability to turn my head or move my shoulder and arm. With the support from Nicolo and this only after two treatments almost all pain is gone and I can move my head and arm absolutely freely. Not only did Nicolo help with his direct treatment but on top he provided great advice about some daily routine to follow for me to avoid any future problems. I can highly recommend Nicolo to anyone suffering from similar issues.

    Dear Dr. Orlando, Thanks very much for your treatment. Two weeks ago, my neck was very bad. I couldn’t sleep well and I felt tired. In addition to this, I had pins and needles and unmanageable neck/shoulder pain. After the first session, all my complaints finished, pins and needles are disappeared. I can sleep well and move however I prefer. Then, after the second session, I feel myself refreshed, more energetic and more healthy. And I strongly recommend Dr. Orlando to my family, friends and anybody who has neck/shoulder/back pain. Best Regards, NA.

    Dear Nicolo, The pain on my lower back was so intense that I couldn’t put on my socks. From the first appointment the relief was great and I felt ten years younger. After the second appointment the pain has all gone and I’m trying to keep stretching and taking supplements to maintain the current good health of my spine. Thank You. Mario Borg Malta

    Nessun dolore dopo il trattamento, anzi, un piacevole senso di scioltezza.\r\nSono ormai tre mattine consecutive che mi sveglio senza avere la solita, vecchia, sensazione di dolore nel gluteo destro: una meraviglia! Dormo bene e, pur continuando ad indossare prudenzialmente il tutore, non ho avuto piU i soliti disturbi alla mano sinistra, precedentemente imputati al tunnel carpale. Ho tolto, come suggerivi, la soletta dalla scarpa destra e, dopo un pomeriggio di assestamento durante il quale il dolore sembrava essersi spostato dal gluteo destro al fianco postriore destro (zona bacino), ora mi sembra di avere meno fastidi camminando. Vedremo nel tempo: ti faro’ sapere. Continuero’ a fare gli esercizi di stretching e di postura come mi hai insegnato e, spero presto, appena tornerò a Malta tornerò ad incontrarti. Concludo ringraziandoti e augurandoti ogni bene. Ciao

    Nicolo Orlando is one of the best chiropractors that my wife and I have come across in our long lives. We are originally from UK but now resident on Gozo and are delighted that Nicolo has been available to us there. He has treated both of us, particularly my wife for a very painful back condition quite recently. I am happy to say that, after just two recent session with Nicolo this recent acute problem of my wife’s appears to have improved to the point where it has almost disappeared. Also, I met a young lady on Gozo in some distress a few days ago. Her friend had hurt his back and was in great pain and unable to move. I was happy that I could recommend Nicolo, who was able to treat this young man shortly afterwards, affecting an almost complete recovery. I strongly recommend anyone with any kind of back pain or problem to straight away consult with Nicolo Orlando at the Malta and Gozo Chiropractic Clinic.

      Dear Valentine,

    2 sessions with Nicolo and my neck is feeling like new, headache a thing of the past, my posture much improved. 46 years of being sat/slouched over a desk take their toll on you without realizing it, Nicolo why didn’t I know you years ago. Yes treatment is not gentle, but not that painful really, as the saying goes ” No pain no gain”, Can’t thank you enough, genuinely feel a new pain free person

    Dear Nicolo, Thank you so much for the chiropractic treatment for my frequent recurring migraines. For years on end I have depended on anti inflammatory drugs which did not deal with my terrible migraines but made me feel worse. I have always suffered from one sided pain mainly in my shoulders, neck and eye area. I came to you as a last resort- to try something else in the hope of getting better. After my first treatment I felt a difference and within 3 weeks my shoulders and neck are so much better. I feel the muscle tension and spasm has gone. My posture improved, and what matters most I have experienced migraine free weeks for the first time in years! Only someone who suffers from migraines can actually understand the difference! A huge thank you. I am so glad I came to see you. Maureen

    I am a 39 years old average male with two slipped discs and chronic back pain. Earlier this month I woke up with severe back pain, my GP prescribed painkillers for 6 months until a back specialist would see me and send me for yet another MRI. Upon recommendations, I called Nicolo and asked him to see me on that same day due to the immense pain I was in, which he did. I dragged myself into Nicolo’s clinic in pain and depressed knowing that this pain normally takes months to ease. Three weeks/four appointment later, I’m seeing myself out of Nicolo’s clinic, walking normally and with no pain whatsoever. He did chiropractic magic on me, but also gave me exercises and stretches and other very valuable tips (i.e. how to sit!) so that he doesn’t see me again. I’ll obviously keep going for regular adjustments… Thank you! Roderick

    Nicolo, Thanks for your great service. What so many gels, painkillers, muscle relaxants and gp visits could not do, you fixed in three sessions. Just wish I knew what a chiropractor did earlier. Keep it up and stay funny, you crack me up.

    Dear Nicolo, I know that I have thanked you after todays last treatment but I have to again. You have given me total pain free days in these last two months whereas before I was suffering from terrible migraines and shoulder pain that even the thought of laying in bed scared me knowing that I would wake up with the same problem. I\’ve tried back and Indian head massages but that only felt good at the time! I had my very first appointment with you back in October 2014 for the same reason and though you recommended me a last visit I refused as I was feeling comfortable then. But a year later the problem returned and I had to come back and start again (sometimes i can be so stubborn). This time I promised myself to listen & \r\nOnly three visits with you was needed and though you said that hopefully l won’t be needing to come back, from here I’m letting you know that in 3-4 months I shall be coming for realignment cause I have no intention to turn back to pain killers again! I would also recommend everyone suffering in pain to give this man a try, promise that you will not regret it. And not all people are professionals so be careful! A very big Thank you Nicolo. Michelle V.

    Would like to highly recommend Dr Nicolo. This is my experience. I have been suffering from severe pain in my lower back since last May. Could not walk for several days due to the pain. After two months of acute pain, I did an Mri and discovered that I suffer from L5/S1 slipped disc. After five months on several pain killers and muscle relaxer pills, I was given two steroid injections, one in the spine and the other one in the piriformis muscle. Pain reduced, but still not totally. Still could not sit down for a stretch of time. Two months ago, someone recommended Dr Nicolo. I phoned him and made an appointment. After the first session, I felt much better and noticed that I could sit for a longer stretch of time. Attended three sessions in all. Will surely visit again in three months time for readjusting. Thanks Dr Nicolo.

    I didnt know much about chiropractic and I didnt believe much in natural remedees.But my wife told me about all this and I decided to give it a try.After asking, some friends referred us to Dr Nicolo.I was suffering from lower back pain for quite some time and swallowed the usual pain killers for nothing. Dr Nicolo was the solution. After only three sessions I felt much better, almost fit. He is highly professional and skilled, capable of listening, no rush at all and offers natural healing with no need of medicine cocktails. I highly recomend Dr Nicolo, thankyou so much I will surely keep in touch to stay feeling fit. Dennis

    I suffered from back pain for years… doctors and physiotherapists didn’t help. Then my wife suggested to pay a visit to Nicolo. After carefully examining my situation, Nicolo was able to cure me after three chiropractic session. I regained my life and youth back.
    I highly recommend Nicolo to all those who lost hope of ever feeling good and health again.
    Thanks Nicolo.

    On the recommendation of friends I went to see Nicolo Orlando with severe low back pain; I had reached the point where I could not stand up on getting out of bed in the morning. My initial appointment with Nicolo filled me with confidence to proceed further, as he was very particular in checking my complete medical history. With each appointment the treatment he gave improved my mobility and reduced my pain markedly. After 4 treatments Nicolo said that I was so much improved he suggested that I have no further sessions with him, but instead I have massage on my very stiff muscles. I then started massage with a great masseuse that he particularly recommended and who was extremely competent. I can heartily recommend Nicolo, both for the successful treatment given and for not asking to attend for further treatments, which he felt weren’t needed – I was so impressed with his honest and honourable treatment of a client. Oh, and he is a really nice easy-to-talk-to person too!

    I had visited a Chiropractic before and the result was very good.
    This year I heard of Dr. Nicolo and went for treatment. I am very satisfied with the service, since he is very helpful, giving you as much time as required and only gives you another appointment, if needed. This is a lack from normal physio, because they try to take as much money as possible. Any problems you may encounter, he is reachable in a matter of minutes and he will always be there to help.
    Thank you so much because I feel like a million bucks 🙂 HIGHLY recommended!

    Dear Nicolo, Thanks for the great service! I was initially very sceptical over chiropractic help for my lower back / hip pain. I tried it as a last resort. I wish I had tried it before! I have been pain free ever since my treatment. I strongly recommend your services! regards and thanks. Justine

    • admin

      Hi Justine,
      I would like to thank you for your kind and valued comment. I will try all I can to convince the Government about the chiropractic effectiveness so that more availability and ease of access to chiropractic may be offered to those patients suffering from acute and/or chronic low back pain. I am currently conducting a survey which shall indicate Patient’s Satisfaction with chiropractic care in Malta. This would show, on a national scale, what the general perception and basic knowledge is of chiropractic care. The results will hopefully be passed to the population through an article in the National newspaper as well as published on Scientific and Medical Databases.
      I would like to thank you again and remind you that we will always be at your service should you need further help.
      Regards

    I went to Nicolo after have been suffering from an injury in my ankle and back pain for around 6 months. What surprised me more was his balance between his chiropractor treatments and easy&healthy life tips.
    In 2 sessions, my ankle was much better, result of the alignment of it and the exercises he recommended me to do. My back, is even better, feeling after the appointment as if no pain or stress was ever on it, but at the same time he asked me to do some exercises I barely do because of the rhythm of life, but I know that if i keep doing them, my back will be 100% better than now, as is mostly a way of sitting, walk and relaxing.
    I will be coming to Nicolo every month, and truly recommend him to anyone that is in need of any treatment for bones, back, pain, sport injuries, etc. Thanks Nicolo.

    Nicolo, I have been treated by Chiropractors before and always felt great afterwards. The service that I got from you, Nicolo , is/was second to none. You showed great expertise in your profession, were very thorough with your examination and had excellent results in your treatment. I believe that Chiropractic education and treatments should be even offered in Hospitals.So many aches and pains could be rectified by a chiropractor. As a sport enthusiast I always visit my chiropractor to rectify and make little adjustments to my body.
    I would certainly recommend Dr Nicolo Orlando.
    Grazie Mille Nicolo.

      Dear Frank,
      It was a sincere pleasure to meet you. I am also glad that you found chiropractic care to be helpful for the treatment of your sport-related pain. I could not agree with you more when you say that modern chiropractic care should be available to every one suffering from various musculoskeletal dysfunctions, in fact, it has been proved through high quality scientific research, that chiropractic is more effective and safer than traditional medicine to treat conditions of musculoskeletal origins including low back pain.
      I wish you the best of health.

    Dear Dr Nicolo Orlando
    I would like to thank you so much on my husband’s behalf for the great and effective treatment you have given him. My husband has been suffering from serious back problems and pain for may years now. After only two treatments he feels much better and is now even much more flexible where before he couldn’t even bend over. The valuable exercises you have taught him are also helping him a lot.
    Most of all I would like to thank you for your honest and professional advice given with such dedication. We would definitely recommend you to our family and friends.
    Kind Regards

    • admin

      Dear Mrs Cutajar,
      thank you for your comment. It was a pleasure to meet you both and, I am glad that your husband has returned to a healthy lifestyle. It has been proved in Europe, and also worldwide, that chiropractic care is an effective and safe profession concerned with the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions such as low back and neck pain.
      These conditions often leads to detrimental lifestyle and depression. Speaking on behalf of the chiropractic profession in Malta, I really hope that soon there will be a change in the Maltese Health System where patients suffering from such conditions will be allowed to access chiropractic care more readily.
      I will be available any/every time, should you need further advise on how to carry out a healthy routine.
      Regards

    Dear Nicolo, As a keen Sportsman, having a back issue worried me. After my first visit to you, you seemed confident of how to tackle and treat the problem. I left your clinic feeling alot better and started the exercises you gave me. For my second visit, you carried out a few more corrections and were happy with everything. The following day I gave my back quite a work out and am happy that all is good. I will continue the exercises and will try not to abuse my back again, which was probably what caused the initial problem! I hope not to see you again, but mean this in a good way.
    Thanks again Nicolo.
    Darius.

    As a regular English visitor to (hilly) Gozo, the last thing I wanted was the return of my intermittent back pain to spoil my time here. Dr Orlando was recommended to me by an English acquaintance. The treatment was excellent and after just one session I felt so much better. A shorter follow up session was all I needed. Additionally, Dr Orlando addressed issues such as posture, food supplements (old age) and exercises. I can thoroughly recommend his professional treatment and care and I will crtainly use him again for check ups.

    I should like to thank Dr Orlando for curing my recent bout of back pain and stiffness with two clicks to the spine. Very successful treatment. Will continue to have follow up sessions on a regular basis. DR Orlando very kindly sees me in his home winch makes things much easier for me, as I do not have to travel long distances.

I have done everything you have asked me to do and these exercises, plus a pilates routine, have helped me a lot. I have all your contact details should I ever need your help again i will not hesitate to make an appointment. Thank you.

    Hello, I live in Malta for one year now. I took long time to find a good osteopath / chiropractor. I have sometimes pain in my leg or in my back. The best i could do is to go to an osteopath or chiropractor. They help me to fix the problem and I dont have to buy and take any medicine. I find it is very helpful and i recommend to everyone to try it!!

    I have suffered for many years from back and neck problems. The treatment I was recommended was rest, pain killers and deep heat. As the pain did not really subside, I tried Chinese massage but again with very little improvement. Finally I tried chiropractic treatment and within a couple of days I was back to normal. I have been to my chiropractor ever since. Since I suffer from a degenertive spine, I need chiropractic treatment almost every year. I usually go to Dr. Russ at Remedies Pharmacy but now Dr. Nicolo is standing in for him. They are both excellent and highly qualified, experienced chiropractors and I have full confidence in their treatment.

    I have been suffering from low back pain for over two years. An X-ray showed no signs of anything wrong and the orthopaedic specialist said that there was nothing to be done and that I would just have to live with the pain. As an horse-rider and fitness junkie, this was not an option so I spent two years trying every alternative therapy available, no matter how hocus pocus I believed them to be. Acupuncture, massage therapy, physio, yoga – none of these provided very much relief. As I last resort I went to see a chiropractor with some reluctance. When I was much younger I had been to see a chiropractor who did some damage to my neck. I later found out that she gained her qualifications online and eventually left the island after causing more damage to other patients. This time round I found the relief I was looking for.
    During the initial exam, the chiropractor seemed to know exactly what was wrong – distortion of the pelvis. This was the first time I understood where the pain was coming from and found out that it can be managed. After the first session I already felt better and after a few sessions I feel almost pain-free, not only in my back, but all over. As a thirty something athlete, who has spent the best part of twenty years falling off horses, I get plenty of pains from old injuries as well as strains from overwork. While I was under the impression that chiropractic deals with only bone alignment, the right chiropractor is also knowledgeable in soft tissue damage and can also treat problems there.
    I now recommend Nicolo Orlando to all my athlete friends who are in any sort of pain. When choosing a chiropractor it is of vital importance to check their qualifications. Whilst the right chiropractor with the right training can provide a world of good, a person with insufficient training can cause a lot more damage and there are plenty of those out there.

      Hello Rachel,
      firstly, I would like to thank you for your kind and, most of all, motivating words. As a qualified Doctor of chiropractic (DC), I have to confront reluctance and skepticism, if not fooling, from both patients and professionals on a daily basis, for those reasons that you mentioned. From June 2013, with the establishment of the first Maltese Chiropractic Association, there will be more available information with regard to recognized/acceptable qualifications, training standards, online advice of how to choose an ethical chiropractor, back health tips, contact details of those qualified therapists, and more.
      I would like the Maltese public to have safe access to spinal manipulation which research has showed to be more effective and safer than traditional medication to treat back pain caused my musculoskeletal dysfunctions. Keep on being a very active person and take care of your back. I am always available should you wish/need to visit our clinic.
      Regards,
      Nicolo

    Mr Orlando, Well done on setting up the association. This is a good step in the right direction to achieving the much deserved official recognition. Surely, this is just the beginning but it is a pleasure to realize that some people notice and recognize the effort made by chiropractic for/to the community. Keep up the good work. See you soon.

    Hi Dr. Nicolo,
    I want to thank you very much for the excellent treatment you have given me. You recognised my back problem immediatley and by the end of my first appointment I had already felt the difference. In addition, you gave me very beneficial information on how to take care of myself better.
    Nowadays I don’t feel any type of pain and I will surely return to the clinic every now and then for a check up.

    Dear Dr.Nicolo Orlando ,
    I Would like to thank you so much for the outstanding and effective treatment that you have given me so that my severe headaches could go away. Ever since my headaches appeared , my life completely changed , I couldn’t even sleep properly and headaches would sometimes last for even 3 days straight. Due to this , I Became completely dependent on pills which by time became a problem as well because when you get used to them , they would no longer work. Thanks to your treatment I am now pain free just after 3 sessions with you and the pain has not returned ever since.
    I highly recommend Dr. Orlando for he is one fine chiropractor and truly does everything he can to make you feel better.
    Thanks again 🙂 Sarah

      Hi Sarah,
      Thank you for your kind comment. I’m so glad that I managed to help you relieving your headache. It was obvious that your lifestyle had been affected by it and the dependance to ineffective painkiller tablets was detrimental with the only outcome of adding more frustrations. You should also take credits for following my advice on stretches and posture, so I guess that we both did it together. Wish the best of health and pain free life.
      Regards,
      Nicolo

    Dr. Orando you truely are one of the best chiropractors I have ever had the pleasure of meeting! Not only did you work with my back but you educated me on what I could do in the future to increase my health. I felt very safe in your hands and was amazed at how you “read” my level of pain even before I said anything. Being a “tough John Wayne\” type of guy often means that I suffer more that I need to do, however your skill and knowledge allowed you to anticipate the pain and you then used an alternate means to address the problem.
    Thank you again and I will definately come back to you when I need you help.

      Dear Dr Gilbert,
      Thank you for your kind comments. It was a pleasure to meet you and I’m glad that you found ‘modern’ chiropractic care effective for your low back pain. I will definitely be happy to help you, should you need any assistance in the future.
      Wishing you the best of wellness.

    I feel very lucky to have met and been treated by Nicolo. It was my first visit to a chiropractor and it took Nicolo only one treatment to greatly reduce my chronic mid-back pain and at the same time improve my range of movements. For the first time in a long time I can sit with a straight back with literally no pain and enjoy a pain-free sleep. As a computer programmer I’m being tied to a chair 10+ hours a day. Years of work have made heavy impact on my posture, curving my back and shoulders, reducing radius of movement finally developing a condition which resulted in constant chronic pain in my middle & lower back. I was even diagnosed a herniated disc (S5-L1). It is amazing what Nicolo did for me in only one treatment. It was a completely pain free treatment concentrating on my neck and mid-back and did not affect my herniated disc in any way. Regretfully I did not made it to a follow up visit wit Nicolo, but I made a promise to myself to exercise regularly and take every opportunity to visit professional chiropractors whenever I can.
    Thank you Nicolo, me and my back are eternally grateful 🙂

    I had been suffering from neck/shoulder pain going down to my lower back. I had been to several doctors and physiotherapists and was prescribed everything from anti inflammatory pills to several back exercises. Then I heard about Nicolo through a pharmacist friend of mine.
    After carefully examining my situation, Nicolo was able to cure me after one chiropractic session. I walked out from the clinic pain free and my pain has not returned and it has been over two years.
    I highly recommend Nicolo to all my family and friends

    Dear Nicolo, I would like to thank you for your great treatment of last week and the week before. When I came to you I had problems walking properly and sitting without been in pain on my low back. I also have had constant neck and shoulder pain. After you treatments I am pain free both when I walk and/or sit; you have also showed me some very valuable exercises how to improve my posture to avoid my back and neck problems in the long term. I will try to do them every day now 🙂 I am also able to follow my yoga lessons again thanks to you so I am really happy! Even though I don’t hope that I will have to come back for a treatment soon, I would sure feel in very good hands if I had to.
    Thanks again!
    Kind regards,
    Swantje
