Severe back pain and so much more…

Hello there! You are soon going to find out who I am

and what my amazing life changing story is.

I hope you enjoy and spread Dr. Dan’s care for each and

everyone of his patients and their families.

Thank you and God bless!

My name is Tamarah Smith, I’m 17 years of age and I was a victim of severe back pain. Not only did I suffer from the lack of sleep, but I found it hard to carry on with everyday tasks. I was having trouble at school, not being able to concentrate on my work because I was not comfortable. I had trouble carrying my backpack and even my purse (which I think might weigh more ha ha).

I found it ridiculously hard to sleep, I could not lie in a comfortable position, no matter which way I laid. I had tried sleeping in all different directions, with a pillow between my legs, anything, you name it.

        I would get major headaches (that weren’t quite migraines), I would have upset stomachs, cramps in both of my feet (like they locked up…very painful), unenergetic, and I would be moody as all heck to anyone who would step one tiny decimal over the line. I was finding it hard to be the person I was before these random symptoms started to occur. I was agitated with myself for the way I was acting; no one wanted to be a close friend and I was reclusive myself. I didn’t know what to do. I was acting horrible and I was angry with myself for doing so.

        When I first heard about chiropractic care, it was from my father, Willie Smith Jr., and he absolutely praised it. He had been a bit worse than I, with six subluxations and two bone spurs, but he is almost completely back to his old self. I don’t want to talk too much about my dad so just one more thing; he had also suffered from headaches, except his were chronic migraines. He said he didn’t feel himself and that his age had doubled, maybe even tripled. I was watching my father slowly slip away into a boring, unmotivated person (which he so was not).

        So when he had told me about Dr. Dan and his chiropractic caring, I was amped for the idea. That is, until I got there. I was completely terrified from what I had heard from other people and how the cracking of the back was painful. I dang near cried during my first appointment. I was petrified! He assured me that everything would be ok and to just relax, because my first life changing “adjustment” wasn’t until my next appointment.

        So I did relax just a little bit, but come to find out that Dr. Dan had enough spare time after my pre-examination to “adjust” me. Now realize I am saying “adjust”, because chiropractors do not ‘snap,’ ‘crackle,’ or ‘pop’ your back, they “adjust” it. So at this point I am totally tripping out. It was incredibly scary and I was terrified. He had me lay down and walked me through everything. He said he was done and I was like “already”?

                Dr. Dan has helped restore my electrical currents throughout my body. He didn’t just repair the problem like most electricians do, he went in there and totally hooked me up. He gave me a new wiring kit and everything! I am no longer experiencing severe back pain, headaches, foot cramps, stomach pains, anything!!!

        From that day on I was scheduled for three days a week. After my first appointment I was already feeling better. My life was coming back to me and my old self was resurfacing. I have now graduated to twice a week visits and feeling even better than before I realized I had subluxations. So I took my five easy steps to a new and refurbished life:

1)   Set up a chiropractic appointment

2)   Get “adjusted”

3)   Thank Dr. Dan

4)   Thank Myrna

and

5)   Thank GOD

Well, I begin by telling you why I came to see Dr. Dan. I had been having trouble with my foot. What was wrong with it the Doctors really didn’t understand. The MRI showed Bone Marrow Edema. What that meant I didn’t really know. The Doctors didn’t have any treatment plan except for Ibuprofen, rest, and wear a Cam walker. So, I started working part time (pretty hard for me to do since I work on commission) and kept my foot up as much as possible. I went to Google because Google knows all. The stuff I read there was pretty scary. So, I followed the Doctors orders because after all they know best, right?
The result -- after one year of following Doctors orders my specialist shrugged his shoulders and scratched his head and said, call me if it gets worse. After much encouragement from my Sister- In-Law Sharon Estep I came to see Dr. Dan. My mind set was that I had nothing to lose!
Now, after five months (it was actually much less time then that) I am walking with out a boot and most of all with out pain! I really didn’t think that I would ever be able to walk without pain again.

I tell people everyday how my treatments here in Dr. Dan’s office have changed my attitude about Chiropractic. I told Dr. Dan the other day that I have “drunk the kool-aid!
Just as a P.S. I have noticed that I have less Migraine Head Aches, More energy, I seem to be sleeping better. I am doing much better and I can’t even imagine what life would be like without my visits to My Family Chiropractor.

Thank you Dr. Dan!!

And of course our Lord Jesus Christ for letting me meet Dr. Levin

     I personally believe that Chiropractors are God-Breathed. I was blessed with an over active accident prone “gene,” and my injuries started early. After 15 or so motor vehicular accidents, numerous sports injuries, and a recent epiphany. “I don’t mountain bike very well.” It took injuries to both shoulders resulting in a broken collar bone, 3 operations, and permanent damage before the light bulb went off...

When I came in to see Dr. Dan my left(or was it the right?) hip was rotated over 45 degrees and I carried 25 lbs more on one side than the other, my cervical curve was practically nil and I was nearly unable to function without a high degree of pain.

Thanks to Dr. Dan’s “manipulative skills” I now can function at a lower degree of pain, the hip rotation is on the home stretch, only a couple lbs now. I am still quite active, I lift weights, play racquet ball, foot bag, etc., and can do it a lot better than before I saw Dr. Dan. I will be competing in the next Olympics, or maybe just the P.F. Changs Rock & Roll Marathon.

Thank You Dr. Dan and a hearty thank you to all your staff.

May God’s desire for your life continue to unfold.

To Whom it may concern,

I started seeing Dr. Dan about six months ago. I have never been to a chiropractor my entire life so I was not sure what to expect. I am twenty-four and have had some lower back pain issues for about ten years. The pain was so excruciating that I would be unable to move for hours at a time. I would also receive migraine headaches at least once a week. I would typically get sick during the winter periods once a month and I would have an almost constant tingling feeling in my feet.

My wife Renee used to be a frequent visitor to Dr. Dan's office when she was younger and began having symptoms of her own. She suggested that we start seeing him to see if he may be able to help some of these issues I was experiencing. Within only a few visits of seeing Dr. Dan I no longer was experiencing the extreme migraine headaches and excruciating lower back pain. I can only recall one of each of these issues since seeing Dr. Dan and both may have been brought on by dehydration. During the winter months I was only ill one time and it was not as extreme as the post chiropractic care illness and that constant tingling in feet has gone away.

Although it has only been six months of my twenty-four years of life I have experienced a renewed energy (which comes in handy with a two year old) and relief from pains that I had experienced for far to long. I look forward to another six months and more of continued health by staying regular with my visits and eating healthy.

Sincerely,
Matthew Clancy

Dear Readers, 

     I wanted to share with you what works in my family for staying healthy. We are committed to consistent chiropractic care. Since changing from traditional medical docs to chiropractic, the healing in my family is just an amazing testimony to its effectiveness. Things we never anticipated have happened.  Things we were not even looking to get help for have healed.

     For me those things have been the removal of my hypoglycemia, anxiety, and bowel issues.  Since I have been seeing Dr. Dan (starting Oct. 2006) I have given up 5 prescriptions that I took daily.  Just getting off medications has allowed me to get back from diminished mental capacity.   Learning that God's design for our body includes self-healing has been a true epiphany for our family.  I have been blessed with energy like I had many years back.

      My husband has recovered a lot from his degenerative disk disease; his IBS is completely gone (which he has suffered severely for almost 30 years).

     My son Bryce's moody attitude has improved, he feels over all healthier. Katie's anxiety issues, eczema and back pain are gone and Lia's ADD type behaviors have decreased significantly.

      Anyway, just wanted to put that bug in your ear - see more at -

Much Love,

Lucy

PS - not one of us has been ill at all this winter!!!

More than just back pain! Troy’s Chiropractic Checklist: No more sinus and ear infections No more frequent headaches Finally getting a good nights sleep without discomfort More energy all the time Better posture Better work performance Hey! Chiropractic care works!

_____________________________________________________________________ Improved Sleep, No Leg Pain My name is Alma and my first chiropractic experience began about three years ago, when constant lower back pain and leg pain forced me to go see a chiropractor. A co-worker referred me to My Family Chiropractor, so I figured I would give it a try since I was pretty much at the point of desperation to get better. I was working 2 jobs at the time and was doing a lot of lifting and carrying at both jobs. All I knew is that at the age of 25 years old, I should not be feeling like I was 75. I did not know the first thing about chiropractic care or about the real definition of “true health”. I had never been to a chiropractor before, and sort of thought of chiropractors as “emergency-only” doctors. Honestly, if it had not been for the constant pain I was experiencing in my lower back and my inability to sleep at night, I probably would have never even called to make an appointment. Once I went through the initial orientation, I was completely amazed at how much sense chiropractic care, instead of “pill-popping” made as a way to truly allow the body to heal itself the way God created it to do so. I received just a few adjustments, and was definitely a believer. Unfortunately, at that time, I was not in a position financially to invest what I needed to go through the initial treatment. I was discouraged to find that my insurance company would not cover any portion of the adjustments, so due to my financial situation, I stopped going after just a few adjustments. For the next three years I just continued to “live with the pain” even though it just gradually got worse and worse. A seed however, was already planted in my head. I know now the truth about Chiropractic care and believed 100% that it would benefit me. I had such a great experience at My Family Chiropractor that I knew someday I would be back again. I admired My Family Chiropractor and their staff for their genuine care, even for the short time that I was there. The experience really stuck with me, because I saw that Dr. Dan was someone who truly cared about his patients. I had not experienced that kind of care with previous doctors. Now, three years from the first time I stepped into My Family Chiropractor, I have just finished about 3 ½ months of treatment, and have improved 100%. The pain in my lower back and leg is gone, I feel more energetic, I sleep better, and I just “FEEL GOOD!” I have made a commitment to myself that my health will continue to be a priority, an d I will continue my chiropractic care to remain “subluxation-free” forever! I feel so blessed that I was referred to such a great Chiropractor who had made a huge difference in my life. Thanks My Family Chiropractor for everything you do!

_______________________________________________________________________ Ear Infection Dear My Family Chiropractor, I am writing to extend my gratitude regarding the latest adjustment on my 2 month old son, Kayo. Prior to this adjustment, my poor baby suffered many agonizing hours of pain with his first ear infection. I was at the end of my rope and called my husband to see what else I could do to help our tiny baby. He instructed me to go straight to you office and get the baby adjusted. The amazing thing I would like to share is the miracle that took place following the adjustment. My son stopped crying in an instant as the fluid began to ooze out of his ear. I sat in amazement. I then stressed to Dr. Dan again, that he reminded me of a medicine man from back home. I am ever so grateful my child was able to benefit from your professional chiropractic techniques. My son began his healing that moment. How exciting it truly is to see such a miracle! Thanks again for providing care to our entire family! Sincerely, Cheryle _____________________________________________________________________________________________________

Increased Energy & Happy Hi, my name is Julie. I first came to see Dr. Dan about 8 months ago. I had just finished moving and injured myself in the process. At the initial evaluation Dr. Dan showed me my x-ray and explained subluxation. I didn’t even need the explanation, the x-ray showed me everything- my spine curved back and forth, and my left shoulder was 3 inches below the right. I had my first adjustment and it relieved the most recent acute pain that I was experiencing. What I wasn’t expecting was the continued improvement that I experienced over the next 3 months of treatment. Over the last 10 years or so I hadn’t taken very good care of myself. My determination kept me gong as my health deteriorated. I accumulated subluxations, my energy was increasingly restricted but I kept going. Waking up every morning in pain and discomfort, tired all the time, depressed, stressed and hopeless. My joy and enthusiasm were gone. I tried many things, lifestyle changes, new jobs, medical treatment and rest. These things helped temporarily but soon afterward I was back in the same depressed, tired place. In only a few months time I am a changed person. With my energy back, not only do I wake up happy and energetic everyday, I handle stress so much better! I haven’t been sick in 8 months; I used to catch everything that came along. Thanks to My Family Chiropractor, the quality of my life has improved dramatically, and I am hopeful about the future!
