I struggled with mild sleep apnea, jaw & neck pain, and difficulty sleeping, all of which left me exhausted and in chronic pain.
Treatment has alleviated nearly all of my pain, let me sleep soundly, and corrected my sleep apnea.
The staff are excellent. They are knowledgable, positive, and always willing to answer questions.

Julie: Most of my problem lied definitely in the left side of my jaw. Always, there was constant pain. I would have headaches, tension in my neck and shoulders.

Terri: Hi, my name is Terri. A little over a year ago I came to see Dr. Klauer because I was having constant headaches every day; I’d wake up with them. I’d have them at work, any times we went to a special event, I would have them. I would have severe eye pain and vomiting with them.
