Chiropractic Testimonials
Jerry G. - I would definitely recommend it to anyone with neuropathy!
The reason that I came to see Dr. Winget was that I had a loss of balance while walking and standing. Also, there was complete numbness (90% numb) in the toes and in the balls of my feet. It felt like I was walking on someone else’s feet. I was afraid that it was degenerating to the point that I would have to face loss of limb.
I went to another physician who ran electronic test called EMG on two separate occasions, and put me on a medication called Gabapentin for the last 2 years. Through all this, my feet got progressively worse.
I was afraid to ride my Harley, which I used to ride it at least once per week on day trips for 75-100 miles per trip or more. I could not ride my bicycle either. I stumbled a lot while walking, and started reaching out to grab onto things around me to steady myself. It was a great concern for me. During the posture check of my first exam, I could not stand with my eyes closed because I would fall over.
By the third Rebuilder treatment I had noticed the numbness regressing, first in the toes, then in the balls of my feet.
I am 90% confident now walking or riding my Harley and have planned a day ride for this weekend. I still have some numbness, but it is at least 50 – 60% improved after only 5 weeks of treatment. During my most recent examination, I could close my eyes and stand completely still during the posture check! I have more feeling and sensitivity in my feet and feel more confident in my balance. When we started, I honestly doubted that it would work because nothing has so far, but now I’m a believer in it. I am completely satisfied. I would definitely recommend it to anyone with neuropathy.
Claudette W. - They have performed a near-miracle for me.
For the past year, I have gone through a health problem, that at times I thought I might not make it at all, or that I might go the rest of my life without any relief. Fortunately, I have a concerned friend who asked me if I had ever been treated by a chiropractor. My answer to her was no, and I asked her if she could explain to me how they could help me.
Before starting Rebuilder treatment with Dr. Winget, I had numbness and tingling in both of my hands. My right hand began 20yrs ago and the left hand just started showing symptoms September 2009. In all of my fingers I would feel an electric type of current. It happens several times throughout the day. The last two nights it woke me up and kept me awake. I would rate the severity at 8 of 10.
After four and a half weeks of Rebuilder treatment, I can truly say that they have performed a near-miracle for me. I feel so much better now, and have a real hope that I am on the way to a full recovery. I have had 70-80% improvement in the numbness and tingling in my hands!
I cannot say enough about the effective treatment afforded to me and the way it has been administered. Throughout, Drs. James and Jill Winget and their staff have been very patient, understanding, and emotionally supportive.
David G. - You are an Ironman!
I came to Dr. Winget with constant neck pain, and my back felt like someone was digging into it with each breath with a blunt object. I have had three vertebrae broken and numerous neck injuries, and told countless times that I would have to just live with the pain. I had a had a dream of being in the Ironman triathlon, but the pain I was in made that impossible.
I met Dr. Jill at a screening and decided to give chiropractic a try, despite what I had grown up hearing how it was not a legitimate profession. I quickly discovered how wrong that was. I began to turn my head with less pain, and started training for the Ironman. I was running for 2-3 hrs, biking for 5-6, and swimming countless laps, and stayed consistent with my weekly adjustments. Then one day I was able to hear "David, you are an Ironman!".
I know now that chiropractic helped me accomplish my dream, which otherwise would never have happened. I still continue to get adjusted because I know that to stay healthy and interference free, chiropractic is the answer. If you have a dream that your health is interfering with, give chiropractic a try, I did.
Kathy B. - Muscle Relaxers, Do Not Work as Well
What was your main health concern that brought you to our office?
Neck pain, numbness in my arm and lower back pain. I started seeing Dr Winget back in 1995 and was on a maintenace program when for one reason or another I stopped coming. BIG MISTAKE. My condition 5 years later was now worse then when I started back in 1995.
What type of previous care had you recieved for this condition?
I had taken over-the-counter pain relievers, and was treated for a pinched nerve and prescribed muscle relaxers. Thats when I came back to Dr. Winget.
Describe your results under Dr. Winget`s care.
I no longer have any numbness in my arm. The lower back pain has descreased and I no longer have the leg pain while standing on my feet for any period of time.
-Thank you Dr. Winget, I will never leave again!
(Kathy`s entire family is under care, and her twin children, who suffered from severe ear aches for many years, no longer have them, and some of the healthiest kids in their school)
Marilyn T. - Bronchial Asthma, High Blood Pressure, Severe Neck and Shoulder Pain
Two years ago I was diagnosed with bronchial asthma, high blood pressure, and was experiencing severe neck pain that radiated down to my shoulder. My doctor had me using Advair twice a day as an inhaler, and was also taking a blood pressure medicine. With the inhaler I got bronchitis about 3 times a year, and saw the doctor on a monthly basis. The inhaler and blood pressure medicine were in addition to the daily Advil for arthritis in my thumbs, nose sprays with steroids for my allergies, and Lipitor for my cholesterol. My cardiac doctor also administered regular stress tests for my heart monthly.
After 2 months of care with Dr. Winget, I am no longer using any inhalers (including Advair), taking any blood pressure medicine and the Lipitor is down to 1/2 a tablet twice a week! I feel better then I have in years, and have not needed to visit my doctor since I started care! I love that I am sleeping better, have more energy and even less stress with my care. Thanks Dr. Winget!
Beatrice A. - I was 1" Shorter and had Tingling in my Toes/Hand/Low Back
I initially sought out chiropractic because I had noticed that I had shrunk an inch in year! I was also experiencing some tingling in the fingers of my right hand, the toes of my right foot and some low back pain. A coworker of mine recommended me to her chiropractic and I tried him for 8 months, but the relationship did not go so well and I quit with a great distrust for chiropractors.
I finally decided to try chiropractic again and began my care with Dr. Winget. With his vitalistic and educational approach, I have gained my inch back, have no tingling, feel healthier then ever before, made some life changing and life saving decisions and had my trust restored in chiropractic. No colds or really being sick at all has been a big plus too!
Cheryl Y. - Hyperthyroidism, Low Back and Neck Pain
I originally decided to see a chiropractor about the ache in my low back and my stiff neck. They had been bothering me for years, and I dealt with it by taking OTC medication. I had also been taking 5mg of medication since 2002 when I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism.
I had never seen a doctor about my back and neck pain, but under Dr. Winget`s care the stiffness in my neck is gone along with the achiness in my back. I am now able to do household chores or field work in my profession without pain! I still see an endocrinologist about my hyperthyroidism, but since I started chiropractic care, my medication has gone from 5mg to 2.5mg.
Fay D. - Achy Legs and Feet, Low Back Pain and TMJ
For several years I have had leg and feet aches, compounded with some low back pain. Sometimes my feet ache so much that I was barely able to walk when I first got up. I never saw a doctor about my low back pain, but I did see a podiatrist a couple of years ago so I was taking up to 800mg of Motrin a day. I continued this untill I developed an allergy to it.
On my intial exam I saw my X-rays and was shown my exam results and surprised by how much my center of gravity was shifted so I was carrying a lot more weight on one side then the other. Under care I am now having less pain and have noticed less problems with my TMJ as well.
Thanks for the personal & friendly care I recieve at this office.
Lemuel T. -Headaches, Neck Pain and Posture Problems
I had a major headache everyday, and so I dealt with them by trying to ignore them and just living with the pain. The neck pain I was suffering with I dealt with in the same manor and I was hardly aware of my posture problems. I never took any over the counter medication for the pain, I simply ignored the pain.
When I started care with Dr. Winget I was hoping for the headaches to be taken care of. So you can imagine how surprised I was when all the pain I had in my body was gone and when I noticed my posture was getting better. I now sleep sounder, have more energy, feel 300% healthier, and I hardly get sick anymore. If I do get sick it is gone within 24 hours, which is great!!
-Many Thanks to Dr. Winget and Staff!!
