I was diagnosed with CRPS of the left knee in February 2020. I had a knee injury October 2018, followed by left knee arthroscopy on 3/22/19. I was unable to quickly rehabilitate my knee like a young adult should (I’m 29 years old). I attended PT for almost 1 year, tried multiple medications, had cortisone injections, and did home exercise. No matter what I did, I just wasn’t getting better. I had horrible atrophy of my left lower extremity muscles and was in constant pain. In late 2020, my symptoms progressed to very classic CRPS symptoms: temperature change, color change (knee was dark purplish color), and hypersensitivity. At times, I was unable to tolerate the bed sheets touching my knee. I was miserable with my CRPS symptoms and saw multiple specialists, including pain management and a rheumatologist. I was put on high-dose Gabapentin (1,800 mg) and Nortriptyline (50mg). These medications barely dulled the pain and left me feeling very sedated. I was constantly searching for an answer. Something that had no side effects, was noninvasive, and had been successful for other CRPS patients. That’s when I found Calmare therapy with Dr. Orlando. To have found Dr. Orlando and the Calmare therapy he offers is the best thing that has happened to me since my diagnosis. Dr. Orlando is the most genuine, compassionate provider I have seen so far. He goes above and beyond to make sure his patients feel they are his priority. Prior to my first treatment, he called me to explain the Calmare therapy and gather detailed information about my symptoms. For the first time since the onset of my CRPS, I felt hope. Dr. Orlando recommended 12 sessions of the Calmare therapy. It has been 6 weeks since the 12 sessions of treatment. I feel like I have my life back! I went from being on 1,800mg Gabapentin when I started treatment to now half that amount! I also went from barely walking 1k steps per day to now over 5k steps per day! The Calmare therapy Dr. Orlando provided has allowed me to feel so much relief from my CRPS symptoms, and I could not be more grateful. Dr. Orlando has also been one of my biggest supporters. Although I haven’t been back in a while, he still checks on me to see how I’m doing. It makes all the difference to have a provider who genuinely cares about their patient’s wellbeing. I highly recommend Dr. Orlando to anyone who is struggling with CRPS, he is the absolute best. Thank you for all that you do Dr. Orlando! I was diagnosed with CRPS of the left knee in February 2020.

Finding Dr. Orlando and Calmare Therapy truly changed my life. Five years after having a spinal fusion, I started having more back pain again. I tried every “usual” treatment, to no avail. Fortunately, one of my clients told me about Calmare and I found Dr. Orlando. He was extremely patient. He even encouraged me to wait to try it until we made sure there wasn’t a structural issue causing my pain. After 3 months of speaking with him and sending my scans and doctors notes, he suggested that I move forward with Calmare. I am forever grateful that I did. While it wasn’t a “miracle cure” for my back, it did relieve a significant amount of my pain, which allowed me to start working out again (guided by Dr. Orlando) and as I got stronger, my pain diminished even more. What came as a very happy surprise is that the Calmare completely eliminated an underlying all body pain that I have lived with my whole life due to a non-specific autoimmune disease. I have never believed in miracle cures, but this was truly miraculous to me. I didn’t know it was possible to live in this world with out all that discomfort. Through all of it, Dr. Orlando was patient, caring, supportive and just all around kind in every way possible. He is doing such extraordinary work, changing people’s lives for the better. You won’t find a better practitioner. I highly, highly recommend him. Finding Dr. Orlando and Calmare Therapy truly changed my life.

I will be forever grateful to Dr Orlando and his staff. My 8 year old son was diagnosed with CRPS and after 6 months of excruciating pain for my son and frustration for our family bc we were told the only solution for my son was for him to learn to manage his pain, we found Dr Orlando and his Calmare machine. His knowledge and caring nature to help and treat my son was beyond impressive. He went above and beyond and truly was a ray of sunshine during a dark time that had limited hope. After 10 sessions, my son has been pain free for over a month!! I whole heartedly recommend Dr Orlando. He is a true hero to our family! I will be forever grateful to Dr Orlando and his staff.

It has been about 4 months since my last Calmare appointment with Dr. Orlando, and I cannot believe how much of my life I have gotten back! I was diagnosed with CRPS about 4 years ago and was experiencing high levels of pain in my knee. Now, my husband and I are enjoying more walks together and I can genuinely tell people that “ I’m good" when someone asks me how I’m doing. My mother-in-law encouraged me to research Calmare Therapy because it is non invasive and drug free. In my research I found Dr. Damon Orlando, I called the number on his sight and explained my story and he genuinely wanted to help me because he cares about healing.

As a surgeon, having my 8 year old suffer from CRPS/Chronic pain was an experience I do not wish upon any family. Taking care of a child with chronic pain and not being able to take it away immediately is both humbling and painful to observe. We had a great team including pain specialists, pain management therapists and an orthopedic surgeon who were all open to any treatment that may assist in his recovery. We found Dr. Orlando - and his bedside manner in conjunction with his skillful use of the Calmare technology was life changing. My son connected with him and peaceful demeanor and we are 6 weeks out from his 10 treatments PAIN FREE. Thank you Dr Orlando for healing our family. Good luck to you and your future patients.

I can’t speak highly enough of Dr. Damon Orlando’s chiropractic knowledge and talent. I went to see him on advice from my GP who highly recommended him. I was unable to elevate or rotate one arm. Dr. Orlando diagnosed the problem as a shoulder issue and was able to begin the healing process immediately. I have complete use of the arm now, thanks to him. My only regret is waiting too long before seeking his help. I found Dr. Orlando and his staff very supportive plus a joy to work with.

Fake reviews. Very Nice.

I was referred to Dr. Orlando by a friend at my gym...She raved about him and I was NOT disappointed. First off, the front desk/office assistant was polite and helpful on the telephone - Her warmth and willingness to work with my schedule put me at ease immediately. Second, Dr. Orlando was personable. He was professional, respectful and very reassuring about my condition. He offered practical advice and answered all my questions. The office was clean and welcoming - I felt very comfortable the moment I arrived. All-in-all, a very great first experience.
