Electrical Muscle Stimulation (Electrotherapy)
Electrical Muscle Stimulation: Dr. Charles Oliver provides electrical muscle stimulation to patients in San Antonia Texas and the surrounding areas. Electric muscle stimulation is a physical rehabilitation therapy modality that is used to stimulate muscle contractions using electrodes hooked up to an electric stimulation machine at our facility. These contractions help to control pain, manage inflammation and strengthen the muscle.
The electrodes are placed on the effected areas of the patient’s body, typically around the neck, back, shoulder, knee, ankle or wrist. The therapist will then adjust the controls of the machine until the patient feels a prickly sensation and is able to comfortably target the level of stim without burning, stinging or feeling a stabbing sensation. The stimulation will increase circulation and reduce swelling thereby reducing pain sensations.

Dr. Oliver and his staff are the best! I am greeted by name. Dr. Oliver is the best there is. He is caring, he is honest at setting expectations and he is very knowledgeable. His approach is let’s get you better for life and not a quick fix. I did see improvement within the first couple of weeks after years of pain. I know I’m with the right doctor. I have numerous family and friends who come to Dr. Oliver because he is best and the proof is in the positive results we all have. The staff is knowledgeable, professional and friendly. The office is nicely decorated with a comfortable welcoming atmosphere. The office is very clean.

I began my chiropractic journey with Dr. Oliver four months ago, and the results have been nothing short of remarkable. Not only has my lower back and right hip discomfort significantly diminished, but I’ve also noticed a profound sense of relaxation in my nervous system and a reduction in my overall anxiety levels. From the very first visit, Dr. Oliver’s expertise and attentive care have made a world of difference. His personalized treatment plan was tailored to address my specific concerns, and the progress I’ve experienced has been truly impressive. The relief I feel in my lower back and hip is a testament to his skill and dedication. What sets Dr. Oliver apart is not only his professional proficiency but also his warm and welcoming demeanor. The entire staff displays friendliness and hospitality, creating an inviting atmosphere every time I walk through the door. It’s clear that they genuinely care about their patients’ well-being and comfort Overall, my experience with Dr. Oliver and his staff has been exceptional. The relief I’ve found has greatly improved my overall quality of life. If you’re seeking a chiropractor who combines expertise with a welcoming environment, look no further than Dr. Oliver’s practice. I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in search of lasting relief and comprehensive care.


I am so thankful to Dr. Oliver and his wonderful staff for the lifegiving care I have received at Comprehensive Chiropractic. I was referred to Dr. Oliver by my PC physician as she believed that issues with my neck were contributing to a host of problems including neck stiffness and immobility, problems with sinus drainage, headache, and difficulty sleeping. After a simple, but careful screening, Dr. Oliver helped me to set goals for my healing, and within a couple visits, I was already seeing results. It is very important to me to work with practitioners who can help me discover and treat the root causes of my dis-ease, and this is exactly what Dr. Oliver helped me to do. My headaches and sinus issues are gone, and my sleep has greatly improved which has been key to improving my health all around and regulating my nervous system. As an added bonus, careful and skilled adjustments made to my spine and my hips have eliminated my wrist, elbow and hip pain completely as well! I am continuing to work to improve the curvature of neck so that these issues do not return, and to ensure that my brain can effectively communicate with all the different systems in my body. I have received chiropractic care in the past, but no one has been as effective and efficient as Dr. Oliver. I really appreciate the compassion he has shown me. He is easy to talk to and a great listener! His staff are such kind, attentive and happy people! They ALL make Comprehensive Chiropractic the perfect place to find healing!

I have been at Comprehensive Chiropractic for about 1 month. It has been a great experience. Dr. Oliver is wonderful and very thorough in assessing the problem, developing a treatment plan and executing the plan. He evaluates and re-evaluates to make sure each patient is progressing and pain is going away. The staff is kind and courteous and go above and beyond to make very visit smooth and productive. The facility is also amazing. This is my first time going to a chiropractor and it has completely exceeded my expectations. I recommend Comprehensive Chiropractic highly.

If I could give Dr. Charles Oliver and his staff more than 5 stars I definitely would! Dr. Oliver and his awesome staff are always welcoming, courteous and professional. I went to see Dr. Oliver for my poor posture, neck and back pain I’ve had for years. The treatment plan he has put in place for me has helped me tremendously. My pain has decreased and I can now sleep without pain.

Doctor Oliver and his staff are wonderful! I would recommend him to everyone.

Dr. Oliver prescribed a plan for me that has COMPLETELY worked and made all pain disappear. What sets him apart from others is that he also made a path to solve the underlying problem that caused the pain in the first place. His employees who take me through all the exercises are simply OUTSTANDING in manners and professionalism. I call them ‘my angels’.
Go here. Go here. Go here if you are having problems. A 100% satisfied recommendation!

Over a month ago, I was referred to Dr. Oliver by a friend. One thing I liked right away is that Dr. Oliver made me no promises but instead stated the possibilities based on past patient results. After the consultation X-rays were taken to determine the scope of my problem and the extent of my treatment. To date after 4 weeks of treatment I am no longer suffering from chronic low back pain and my quality of life has significantly increased. As I age, maintenance and stretching will continue to be necessary but I am so much better off avoiding surgery. Thank you Dr. O
