The Wellness Connection Reviews

I became a patient at The Chiropractic Wellness Connection in February of this year. After just 2 adjustments, I began to see tremendous improvement in my symptoms. I no longer needed to sleep with splints on my hands. I can now go to the grocery store without having to carry hand warmers. What has been the most exciting part of this is that I’m back on my bike. I am no longer experiencing numbness in my hands while I ride.

I see the value of chiropractic care, because it has given me my life back. I’m so thankful for the treatment that I’ve received at The Chiropractic Wellness Connection. Thanks to the doctors’ care, I am no longer considering surgery.
I appreciate the friendliness of the staff, and how every knows the names of the patients. I love how the doctors listen to your concerns, look for solutions for you and celebrate your successes. I also appreciate the timeliness of the staff.

My cane is no longer needed on a daily basis.

Not only do I feel better but my progress report showed tangible proof of the improvement in my body. My upper neck and spine are vastly improved. And with future treatments already scheduled, I am confident that more improvements will come.

The staff at Wellness Connection are not only well trained and competent, but passionate about improving the lives of their patients. They are on this journey with you.

It was destiny (it happened for a reason) that I attended the presentation that is changing my life.

Thank you all!

Thanks to some good Samaritans, we were helped out of the car. The ambulance came. It felt like I was in a cloud, people were asking me questions, my daughter was still crying and I, so unlike me, was calm and quiet. When the police and ambulance arrived I only sought treatment for my daughter, yet emotionally I couldn’t care for her or comfort her. I was just there, trying to grasp what was happening but in a fog. No one, not the paramedics, police or doctors in the ER suggested I get checked out myself. I remember the tow truck driver looking at me and saying “lady, someone is watching over you. You’re lucky you’re walking away from this from the looks of your car”. Really? If this was so, wouldn’t someone, anyone that sees this stuff everyday say to me to get checked out?

I couldn’t think clearly in the days to come. We went on the vacation and spent a good amount of time in the room. I continued to get worst. Headaches started coming on strong and intense muscle spasms that no amount of ibuprofen would dull. I have little memory of the very expensive not so magical vacation.

Three weeks later I finally went to the primary care doctor for help. I didn’t know where to turn. Several people said go to a chiropractor. But I had never gone before and I was terrified of the thought of getting adjusted. The doctor diagnosed me with a concussion and muscle spasms. She gave me muscle relaxers to calm the spasms, sent me to physical therapy and to a neurologist where this doctor prescribed pills for the concussion. All these things were Band-Aids. And I had reactions to each medicine prescribed. So brilliant Patty, still in a mental fog, decides to go it alone! Time heals everything, right? Not!!! More trips to the neurologist, over 2 months of physical therapy which eventually helped the muscle spasms but still 24/7 headaches and migraines in full force.

now with nausea and even vomiting. By this point I was sent to a neuropsychologist to check for permanent brain damage. Still there was no movement in the healing direction. More months go by. I planned a short trip to Disney World to make up for the first disappointing trip my kids experienced. About a month before trip two my muscle spasms were back. By now I was learning to live with the headaches/migraines. Determined to make this trip magical, I fought through the pain and again, mean Mom was back and trip was soured because I couldn’t stand to ride in the car, walk in the park or even play in the pool.

By the time we got home I was in so much pain and then I looked in the mirror. What a scary picture I saw looking back at me. My shoulders were two very different heights. So back to the neurologist and another MRI and this time instead of pushing pills because we already battled that I wasn’t doing the pill route, she said ‘the only person I think can help you at this point is a chiropractor.’

Now, I think to myself…why didn’t I listen to all those that told me this in the first place. At this point I was almost 10 months post-accident. Not only was damage done to my spine 10 months ago, now I have 10 months of deterioration and scar tissue. Had I listened I most likely wouldn’t have gone through so much pain for so long.

The next day I was reading an article in the paper for The Wellness Connection and Dr. Jason’s directness impressed me. His passion came through the words he said. He believes in addressing the problems and a natural approach that matched my beliefs as well. So I called and Nicole answered. She had such a warm inviting voice and took the time to answer all my crazy questions. I was worked right in and Dr. Matt & Dr. Brian walked me through every step and explained why the injuries were where they are at and how they could help me. I was in a very dark place during this time and the pain was even more than I thought. As I was starting to see progress I became embarrassed of how crazy I had acted and then I saw Dr. Whitney for several of my treatments. She had an understanding and compassion that put me at ease.

She took the time to listen, give a hug here and there and sometimes just a warm smile that was just enough to keep me pushing on. I can never thank her enough for just being that listening ear and standing by me for that few extra minutes when the tears overtook me. Everyone there continues to make me feel welcome even though I was a little out of my mind. Nicole, Amber, Nicki and Becky always greet me by name as soon as they see me which helps when feeling a little anxious about doing a treatment or on those days where I am having a little set back.

So here I am today, after just meeting with Dr. Jason for my 3 month review. Wow! What progress I have made with the help of everyone there. The first day I went for my evaluation I truly was in such a dark, painful place and my x-rays showed just why. Now my back has shown significant improvements. My neck area has made slight improvements and still has a good ways to go but I now have hope and am already feeling so much better. Dr. Jason has moved me to the next phase of my treatment and his encouragement gives me the faith that I am going to be completely back to me again soon.

And this is where the title comes into play. Finally this past October, my family and I departed for our third Disney trip since the accident and the third time was a charm! This trip, a cruise to the Caribbean was definitely much more magical and we hope by next year our Disney trip will be the most magical of them all and I will be completely back to my old self again.

In addition, the staff helped my daughter with several treatments even though she wasn’t feeling any discomfort. However, after each treatment she said she could feel a difference and it felt better. She has recovered from the accident and is doing quite well but is eager to have her Mom back the way she was pre-accident.

I owe so many thanks to the entire staff at The Wellness Connection. Everyone at this office is so special; Dr. Jason, Dr. Whitney, Dr. Matt, Dr. Bryan, Dr. Olivia, Nicole, Becky, Nikki and Amber and they all take such special care in each person that walks through their doors. I know we still have a long journey together but many heartfelt thanks to your smiles and words of encouragement. With each of your help, I have the faith and the strength to continue on and achieve my goal of getting my life and my family back to our happy place.

Several of them who had trouble sleeping were sleeping better and were more attentive during the day. We also began seeing a difference in how often they were sick. And when we had them adjusted at the onset of an illness, the illness was often less severe and the duration shorter.

Now we use The Wellness Connection as part of our first line of defense and consider them an essential part of our family’s healthcare. We’ve seen the difference that an adjustment or two can make in healing the body from everything from headaches, pregnancy, toddler’s tumbles, ear infections to more serious things such as strep and concussions.

Dr. Whitney helped me with my pain issues and also helped our oldest daughter Alyssa with her hip dysplasia issues.

We were so happy to have Dr. Whitney discover why Alyssa’s walking was delayed and to be able to fix it in such a natural way.

When our middle daughter Riley was born Dr. Whitney knew right away Riley was having torticollis issues with her neck, and helped us with stretches to loosen her neck muscles. Our third daughter Lainey was born and adjusted within days of her birth and has slight neck tightness, but grew very strong quickly and adjustments helped her stay on track.

Dr. Olivia helped eliminate my anxiety and depression issues, I could not be happier to be off Prozac which caused me to feel like a zombie and using simple supplement such as 5-htp, Kavinace, and an adrenal supplement. I felt so happy and calm, with so much energy even as a busy mom of three.

Dr. Olivia also helped us with our oldest daughter Alyssa’s attention issues. Olivia led us through adding probiotics and fish oil to our daughter’s daily supplements. She helped us discover the dark circles under Alyssa’s eyes were from food intolerances. We removed a long list of foods from Alyssa’s diet, and thankfully today Alyssa’s gut is healed and she has a clean healthy diet. Alyssa was also a very anxious little girl whose sleep was not restful. Thanks to neuroscience supplements and Dr. Olivia’s help, Alyssa is a very happy relaxed little girl!

Our journey to wellness will never be finish. We will always be looking for ways to improve our lifestyle and keep our family healthy! We owe our health and wellness to the The Wellness Connection, thank you all so much for being a part of our life!
