As a tennis pro, repetitive stress injuries to the shoulder and elbow are not uncommon. I have been seeing Dr. B for a chronic rotator cuff injury and with the right plan, it has been feeling great! I am actively using my shoulder on a daily basis and do not have off days. Dr. B's approach with shoulder manipulation and prescriptive exercise help to keep me playing.
Brian O'Connell Tennis Pro Club Fit I have been in the sports and fitness fields for 35 years. I've coached in every level of sport including Olympic and Professional athletics. I've been fortunate to coach Heisman trophy winners, Olympic Gold Medalists, and All Pro Athletes. As a result, I've dealt with many sports medicine teams. I can say, without reservation, there is no better provider of Sports Medicine than Dr. Brightman.
Richard F. Snedaker Jr C.S.C.S. I came to Dr. B for low back pain and he not only helped with that, but also helped with my elbow issue. I now have a game plan to help manage both my low back and right arm. The staff has also been very helpful!
Michael Bratt Tennis Pro Club Fit Dr. Brightman has been treating our athletes for years for a myriad of sports injuries with great success!
Bill Swetzfager John Jay wresting coach Dr. Brightman is a true healer. He has effectively used holistic methods to heal my most painful sports injuries when other doctors just tossed pills at me. He is very knowledgeable, compassionate, and cares deeply about his patients.

Thanks for using ART to help me break through to the next level. Paul Fritzsche US Pro Champion Ironman Distance Triathlon Before I met Dr. Brightman, I was very skeptical about chiropractors. He is a true healer!

Dr. Catherine Williams Clinical Psychologist Our athletes are thankful to have Dr. Brightman as a sports medicine consultant and chiropractyor. He has helped several of our young volleyball and softball athletes throughout the years.
Diane Swertzfager Hen Hud Volleyball Coach Dr. B is the go to Sports Medicine guy in the area! He has treated many of our athletes from Brewster sports.
Paul Stellacci Brewster High School Football & Track Coach When I recommend Dr. Brightman to my friends and colleagues I always say the same thing; he is a diagnostic genius who is consistently able to identify what is causing my pain and can explain the actions we both have to take to fix it- here in the office, and me at home by doing the exercises he gives me. Over the years, Dr. Brightman has helped me to resolve pain and stiffness I had in my knees, big toe, elbows, shoulders, and tailbone. I used to think there was nothing significant I could do about the various issues I was having with my joints because I am aging- but that is absolutely not true cause, Dr. B has taught me how to be friends with my 60 year old body.

Hi Dr. Brightman,
I just wanted to thank you so much for helping me out with my back. It has been phenomenal and I have been having no problems with it. I made it through my first week and a half of preseason and I wanted to thank you for that.
Sincerely,
Naigha Ramsa

Throughout my
high school sports career I always had neck problems. My neck was always very
tight and I was experiencing pain in my neck and had very limited range of
motion in my neck. I felt like this was a chronic problem that would never go
away. Nothing seemed to work to fix my problem. I tried exercises doctors gave
me, months of physical therapy, and numerous massages treatments from different
specialists. Nothing seemed to work. My neck became so limiting that I thought
I was going to have to give up baseball, a sport that I loved to play. I felt
hopeless until I stepped into Dr. Brightman’s office. I went in completely
skeptical about chiropractors. Dr. Brightman managed to diagnose my neck
problem the very first time that I saw him. He felt along my spine and
immediately knew where and how my spine was misaligned. It was incredible. Dr.
B then went on to manipulate my spine on multiple occasions to reset my facet
joints into proper alignment. Each treatment I got better and better as he
carefully manipulated my spine into the correct alignment. When I was done with
Dr. B my neck had 100% range of motion and no pain. Dr. Brightman revived my
neck and his level of knowledge and execution of his chiropractic practice
truly is second to none. Dr. Brightman is the best at what he does and was put
on this earth to align people’s bodies and fix injuries.

Dr. William Brightman is an outstanding doctor of Chiropractic Sports Medicine with extensive education, knowledge and experience in the field of health medicine. His unique approach to healing addresses not only your current issues, it heals the old wounds and injuries that have laid dormant for years. He incorporates ART therapy which releases adhesions and dysfunction in the connective tissue and muscles to allow the structural components to realign and stay aligned after treatment. This was most profound during my treatment! After one session with Dr. Will, I immediately noticed the relief of pain, a positive realignment in physical structure, clearer vision and an increased range of motion and mobility. Truly, He is an extraordinary practitioner of healing and a gift to our community. Thank you Dr. Will for your compassionate heart and extraordinary gifts!

The first thing I noticed when I met Dr. Brightman was his exuberant approach to practice. I have several injuries for which he has provided relief, including neck, lower back, hip, shoulder, and wrist. His enthusiasm and positive attitude are a spectacular complement to his wide range of skills. He teaches as he discusses what he is doing, while providing relief from the pain and increasing range of motion. I knew after the first visit that I was finally in the right place. Before I started seeing Dr. Brightman, I was in so much pain that I was having difficulty getting out of bed in the morning, and my energy level was so low that I would have to stay close to home in case I needed to nap during the day. Since I've been going to him, I have experienced not only pain relief, but greatly increased range of motion and sustained energy throughout the day. He has also given me a more comprehensive understanding of what I must do to continue to feel relief from the pain, such as to make changes in my diet and my lifestyle. I love coming to see him and I know that I will feel better every time.

I was always skeptical of having a chiropractor work on my neck or spine. However, several years ago it was Halloween and I was in great pain and unable to move my neck. While trick or treating with my children, I met my new neighbor Dr. Brightman. His calm and soothing manner convinced me to give it a try. The active release techniques he used gave me immediate relief, and I had no more neck pain after several sessions. Last year while playing tennis, I felt a pop in my left calf and had extreme pain and was unable to walk. Dr. Brightman manipulated my calf that day, and in only four sessions I was able to walk. Having these two positive experiences, I wondered if he could help my jaw which kept cramping up and prevented me from opening my mouth. He was able to fix my issues within two weeks. Dr. Brightman has a real gift. With something as complex as the human body, he is able to diagnose the problem and manipulate the muscles to achieve amazing results. I encourage anyone who has pain, to contact Dr. Brightman. Once you meet him and have a fifteen minute session, I know that you will feel as I do.

As a former Division I athlete, I visited my fair share of chiropractors over the years. I was on four National Championship teams under the legendary coach Dan Gable. he taught us that excellence was contagious and that you should surround yourself with excellence in every facet of your life. Find the best professors. Train with the best partners. Use the best equipment. Eat right, sleep right, live right. Gable found the best trainers and doctors, the best masseuses and chiropractors. We wanted for nothing under Coach Gable.
Since leaving Iowa and becoming a coach myself I have tried to copy Gable's model. I have tried to find the same level of care for myself and for the athletes I coach. About three years ago, I was rear ended on a highway. I saw doctors and neurologists and all I received was drugs and more tests. Nothing worked. My headaches got worse and my pain did not dissipate. I almost lost faith in chiropractic care all together. Fortunately, some of my athletes had been treated by and recommended Dr. Brightman. Since my very first visit, I have been convinced that Dr. Brightman is to chiropractic care as Jordan is to Basketball. Simply the BEST! I now send all my athletes and their parents to Dr. Brightman. I have the utmost confidence in his care and opinions. There is no one better in his field.

Dr. Brightman is a natural healer and very few health practitioners have this gift. If you go see him in pain you will leave feeling better. I have been seeing him for over ten years and have experienced the healing arts for over 30 years. I can count on my hand the number of true natural healers and Dr. Brightman is one of them.

Dr.B has given me my life back once again. He has been treating me for over 12 years. He has diagnosed my myofascial and facet syndrome, when other doctors said I had Fibromyalgia, which I do not. I lived in constant pain for years and the only time I am not in constant pain is when I see Dr.B on a regular basis. Otherwise, I would need injections or pain medicine just to function. I've been going a few times a week for a couple of months, and now I go once or twice a month for adjustments. His staff could not be more professional, friendly, or accommodating. A very helpful, stellar staff.

Dr. B,
What can I say-three years ago I was set for major back surgery, could not sleep, walk or sit without major pain. Within two weeks I was sleeping again, walking with far less pain-I was able to cancel the surgery. Thanks to your maintenance program, I can do almost anything I want. If not for you, I would be another sad case who had major back surgery and became a shell of his former self.
Health and fitness are priorities in my life and thanks to you I can maintain a high level of both.I could never repay you for all you have done for me.
