I’ve been going to see Charlie for the past couple years because he is the best! As a wannabe endurance athlete and a new father with a full time desk job, taking care of myself isn’t always at the forefront of my thoughts. When an injury from running or life (aging) slows me down Charlie is the first person I think of. I dealt with knee pain for 12 years from overdoing it on a cross country bike tour. After seeing countless doctors, PTs, massage therapists, etc no one could resolve the root cause of my pain. After 4 sessions with Charlie over 3 months my knee pain has been entirely gone for a year and a half. Now I’m pursuing a more thorough course of treatment with Charlie through his Functional Medicine services. I can honestly say that Charlie and his wealth of knowledge and experience is the person I go to personally and recommend to anyone and everyone that has an issue.

In a relatively short period of time, Dr. Charlie Roach has helped me determine, understand, and address the source of my wide range of chronic symptoms after other doctors couldn't. When describing my declining health and concern about the water damage to a building I occupied, he was quick to correctly identify my description of mold toxicity. He ordered reliable lab tests to confirm and uncover more information to most precisely direct me to recovery and, ultimately, to optimal health. It's been such a relief to receive answers that explain the challenges of my experience and know that his holistic approach to treatment is addressing the cause rather than masking the symptoms of my health issues. If you want to get better and you're willing to put forth the effort on your end and follow through with his recommendations, investing in care through his services may be one of the most important investments you make like it has been for me.

Charlie is the real deal. What he offers is a deep knowledge of anatomy and precise application of his training in Chinese and functional medicine. He is an absolute wizard with the human body. I came to Charlie because of injuries sustained from a shoulder dislocation. After a month and a half of traditional physical therapy I still couldn’t lift my elbow away from my side and was being told that I need to get an x-ray, MRI, and that surgery was likely. Before committing to that approach I made an appointment with Charlie. Much to my astonishment, within five minutes of being on his table he got my arm moving under its own power. Forty-five minutes later, my arm had returned to 50% range of motion. He assured me that I would be just fine and wouldn’t need surgery. In the subsequent weeks, Charlie has brought my arm back to life using dry needling, cupping, stretching, and massage. Besides this, Charlie is a stellar human being. He is a grounded, reasoned and free thinker whom I can’t wait to talk with every week. I know countless people in Brevard who see Charlie and wouldn’t think of going elsewhere for treatment. Do not hesitate to make an appointment if you are in need of help. You won’t find anyone else who is better equipped.

I am a football student athlete at the collegiate level, and had the opportunity to meet Charlie after a torn ACL & Meniscus injury. He also helped me get my hormones and gut flora stabilized and healthy, through functional medicine, making my overall health and energy increase like never before. Charlie not only helped me to get back in shape and back to my top performance, but also back feeling overall better and like myself once again.

Charlie is hands down the best practitioner I have ever worked with. I had ACL surgery and the PT/healing process has been a nightmare with caretakers in South Florida where I live. I developed tendinitis, unhealthy muscle alignment/misalignment, and constant pain. I traveled to North Carolina for the sole purpose of seeing Charlie, after a friend recommended that him for healing his running aches. After 1 session with Charlie I went from unable to walk up stairs without pain to hiking Shining Rock in Pisgah Ntl Forest on a 7 hr hike. I am stunned, his treatment has been the 'silver bullet' that has given me relief, my life back, and knowledge of what I can do at home to stay healthy. I just signed up for his Functional Medicine program and can't wait to get even healthier!
