Greenwich Hospital is negligent in its affiliation with Dr. O'donnell and Greenwich Integrative Medecine. Not only did Dr. O'Donnell have a hard time pin pointing the causes of spinal issues, she also was unable to explain the causes and treatments. Her use of the Graston massage technique is for her benefit only-to reduce her hand fatigue by using steel instruments to do the massage instead of her hands. First she uses EMS to desensitize muscles and nerves. Then she slides steel blades across your muscles and tendons,excruciatingly painful- severely bruising skin, muscle, and tendon sheathes causing a red, swollen back! Then she'll push into your back, popping vertebrae. The end result is a far worse back plus a tilted,rotated head 3 weeks later. There's no study anywhere confirming any safety of anything she does. And she wanted to do x-rays-but is not an orthopedist or neurologist and isn't qualified to evaluate them-a $$making operation for Greenwich Hosp?Dangerous!
