After seeing many Chiro’s over the years and not having any luck I heard about Dr Matthew Panetta 20 years ago and haven’t looked back. He has helped me with my chronic back pain condition and many acute flair ups.
I would recommend Dr Panetta to anyone seeking professional help.His is very passionate and caring and very good at what he does.

Dr. Matthew Panetta is a chiro guru. First time using him today after a long battle with lower back and hip pain he took an x-ray of lower back and hip and after a physical assessment was able to take some pressure off my sacruml which I could notice immediate relief am booked in next week and am already eager to go!!!

Had back pain which radiate all the way to knee and ankle. Took x-ray and had examination. After a few adjustments, pain was still there with very very slow progress. No adjustment was made to the knee or ankle. Was asked to be patient and wait. Eventually, found another chiropractor, was told that there are some problems with the knee and ankle which need adjustment too. After both back, knee and ankle were adjusted by another chiropractor for only 2 times, situation is getting so much better. I guess the treatment in Pinewood was not thorough enough. I found Pinewood via google review. Maybe

Matt is the best Chiro I have ever seen. After seeing up to 5 chiropractors prior, with limited success, Matt has within 3 months enabled me to exercise and successfully run a 1/2 marathon within 9 months of starting treatment.
Matt is very attentive to feedback on how I am feeling. As a result, Matt always adjusts correctly for me to be pain free instantly.
Thank you so much

I saw Dr Matt Panetta approximately 4 weeks ago to get an opinion on my back and ease the anxiety about a disc surgery I was to have in 3 days on my lumbar spine. I suffer from long term lower back, neck pain, pins and needles and tightness on my arms and fingers pain, swollen ankles and feet. I saw Dr Panetta and just after 1 appointment and some xrays ( to check my spinal alignment) Dr Panetta was able to pinpoint the issues and plan my treatment with immediately. I felt immense relieve. I cancelled my operation. I saw Dr Panetta again today(2nd visit), he adjusted my neck and back again, I feel

Excellent, genuine and professional service and most importantly the best my lower back has felt for 15 years after having tried a few other practitioners without any real long term relief and many setbacks. As someone who enjoys lifting weights, the last 3-4 years since seeing Matt, my confidence to go heavy in the gym has been on a steady uptrend.
