TESTIMONIALS
I have been suffering from frequent headaches and back aches for years. The severity of my headaches would often be so severe that I couldn’t function. I would have to be quiet in dark spaces alternating between hold and cold pads. When seeking physician care I was told my headaches were likely due to tension and over-the-counter and prescription drugs were prescribed. I came to the point where I had to have some kind of medication before performing any physical task at work or at home.
Something had to give. My friend suggested Chiropractic care. While I had received Chiropractic treatment many years ago for back pain, I never thought to try it for headaches. I began seeing Dr. Katie and experiencing almost immediate results. No more headaches or back pain! My quality of life has improved significantly. I am playing softball and taking long walks with my children, my heat pad & ice packs are no longer a permanent bedside and office fixture and I tell everyone having any unresolved pain about Dr. Katie!
Thank you,

Before receiving chiropractic care I had migraines daily. I was not able to carry out my daily activities. For fear of the unknown I did not seek medical treatment and I self-medicated with Aleve, Excedrin Migraine, Extra Strength Tylenol, hot/cold compresses to head, heat pads, hot showers and baths.
Chiropractic care had been recommended for my headaches but I was afraid I would get hurt and / or headaches would get worse with treatment. As a last resort I made an appointment with Dr. Katie. My awareness has expanded. I wished I had come sooner - - No more Headaches!!! I am not afraid of chiropractic anymore and I recommend it to everyone no matter what their aliment. Finally I feel like I can live my life to the fullest as I am pain-free.

Before receiving chiropractic care I frequently experienced low back pain & overall back discomfort, had at least one migraine per month, was tired, sluggish and usually needed to nap during the day to have enough energy to make it through my evening activities. My mood swings were affecting the quality of my relationships with my children and spouse – I felt that they usually got my grumpy side more than my happy side. At times I felt as though an anti-depressant was necessary to pull myself up to be the wife and mother my family deserved.
Before chiropractic care I was taking Tylenol several times a week to relieve tension headaches or other minor ailments and I took migraine Motrin for my migraines. Since being under care I have not taken Motrin for migraines. My headaches are not nearly as painful and I rarely take Tylenol.
My feelings about chiropractic care before seeing Dr. Katie were indifferent. I knew very little about the philosophy or benefits of chiropractic. My awareness of chiropractic has expanded significantly. Dr. Katie gave us a thorough informational appointment and explained even more to us as we have continued chiropractic care. We were also given literature and web-sites to further understand the purpose and benefits of chiropractic care.
After being under regular chiropractic care my headaches are nearly gone – I rarely have one and when I do they are not as intense as they were. I have no more back pain or discomfort. My posture has improved and my form in exercise has improved which has had a direct and positive affect on the quality of my work-out. I have a lot more energy and do not need to nap during the day. My moods have also improved and as a result I feel that my kids have a happier, more energetic, attentive, and easy-going mom.

Before receiving chiropractic care I experienced extreme pain in my lower back, hips and neck. This pain occurred after two extensive surgeries on my ankles due to torn tendons in 2005. My body alignment became intolerable. I began taking Vicodin daily just to make it through the day. The thought of going to a chiropractor never entered my mind until my cousin suggested a chiropractor might alleviate my pain. I began seeing Dr. Katie at Wilson Family Chiropractic in 2009. Chiropractic adjustments have changed my life. I wish I had before and after pictures. Before treatment, my alignment was so bad that you could visually see my left shoulder was much higher than my right, now they are even. My neck and hip pain are gone and while I occasionally experience low back pain after exerting myself, I am always remedied by an adjustment with Dr. Katie. I plan to continue routine chiropractic treatment as it has been my saving grace. My husband also began seeing Dr. Katie after witnessing my results and suffering an injury from a fall. He has had similar results and great relief from his pain. We are continuing maintenance treatments twice a month and thankful our problems have not returned.

I began being treated by Dr. Katie at Wilson Family Chiropractic in December of 2009. At 8-months pregnant with my second child, my gracilis (groin area) had become so inflamed that the pain nearly prevented me from being able to walk. The inflammation affected my mood and energy levels while also making it difficult to sleep. While the pain affected me, my discomfort affected my whole family as I was unable to care for our 2-year old.
Prior to considering chiropractic care I worked with a Physical Therapist at a local hospital. Throughout my treatment they were never able to give me a clear diagnosis of my pain. I was continually encouraged to work on exercises and wear a maternity belt - - neither of which provided any comfort. During my first pregnancy I was told my pain was normal during pregnancy and it would go away after delivery. While this thought was presented to me during this pregnancy I did not believe I could or should ignore this problem.
Being raised to think chiropractic care was not medically sound or credible, I have changed my way of thinking since being treated. Dr. Katie has helped me understand and realize the logic and impact chiropractic treatment has on the healing process. I understand how stress and general wear and tear on the body create imbalances that need to be addressed and corrected. She helped address (and diagnosis) my acute gracilis pain, realign my pelvis and relieve my pain. Although I still have some pain due to the extra weight I am carrying with my pregnancy, I truly feel better after each adjustment. I am sleeping better, my mood is elevated and my family life has improved.
