Veteran Urges Veterans to try Chiropractic

11/11/2017

Retired Army Staff Sergeant Shilo Harris credits chiropractic care with saving his life.

Last month, Staff Sgt. Harris was featured in the Illinois-based The State Journal Register with his story of war wounds and injuries, his long path of surgeries and suffering, his dark journey with opioid medications, and his eventual recovery thanks to chiropractic care.

Here is his story in his own words:

"I Always Leave Feeling Better"

6/1/2017

0 Comments

 
The greatest compliment a patient can give to his or her doctor is to spend the time to sit down and write out a recommendation for the office. With so many demands on our time these days, it's deeply appreciated whenever someone wants to spread the word about their chiropractor.

A patient in this office recently wrote the following:
My life used to be one where the main focus was on how much pain I was in. I had been to several chiropractors but always ended up stopping treatment after not really seeing improvement, and many times ended up being in more pain and laid up for days after an adjustment. I received a recommendation for Dr. Johnson and it is one of the best choices I've ever made. He is an amazing doctor, incredibly personable and actually listens to you. He's patient and explains everything very clearly and his adjustments are precise and targeted. I always leave his office feeling better then when I arrived and long term I have absolutely had improvement. I would not have the increased mobility, reduced numbness and significantly reduced pain if not for him. I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone, from infants to the elderly. My quality of life has vastly improved and no longer am I constantly thinking about how much pain I'm in. As long as he is practicing, I will be his patient.
That's a fantastic and heartfelt testimonial, and it's extremely heartwarming! Here's hoping that all of our patients will be able to find the same benefits from chiropractic care for their own conditions.

Low Back Pain Cured, and Patient Released

9/30/2016

5 Comments

 
Here's yet another excellent patient testimonial to share. This patient was suffering from debilitating low back pain and has experienced amazing results through chiropractic care in this office! Once the patient's low back condition was resolved, he was released from further care. He was ecstatic that he didn't feel pressured to continue care when he didn't feel it necessary, and wrote the following glowing testimonial:
I do not usually write a testimonial for a Doctor and certainly not for a Chiropractic Doctor. I have had my experience with others and just simply never went back because of their way of doing business.

Let me assure you that Dr. Johnson is different. He's a caring Dr. who takes extreme care with you and his procedures. Not only did he cure me, he did something against the grain... He released me when I was healed.

Yes, he cured my lower back issue and yes he also gave me a new belief in his profession. I would place him on the very top of the list of doctors to see first for muscle and back issues. Not only is he the kindest Doctor that I have ever met, he's the most efficient and caring one also. I would highly recommend him as first choice.
I am thrilled that he received such positive results and decided to share them. This testimonial, along with many others, can be found at the Johnson Family Chiropractic of Peoria patient testimonial page.

Chiropractic Really Does Work

5/6/2016

0 Comments

 
Three patients recently wrote testimonials online for this office, really quite glowing reviews. I wish to thank them all for their kind words and say how thrilled I am that chiropractic care has helped each of them. For each of them to sacrifice the time to write their thoughts... that's highly appreciated.

The reviews can all be found on Google Maps. Here's one of the reviewers:
I have been a patient here for over a year now and am grateful to have found this practice! Dr. Johnson is an excellent doctor. He takes time to ask lots of questions in order to determine the root of an issue, and is always glad to explain his findings. Adjustments are gentle, safe, and produce immediate results. There is no cracking, popping, or twisting. I trust Dr. Johnson not only with my own health, but my baby's too. My son had a couple of adjustments in his first year of life that helped him to sleep better and fight off an ear infection without antibiotics. I highly recommend Dr. Johnson. He will take great care of you!
Here's a second reviewer:
I have been a patient of Dr. Johnson since he moved into his office on Prospect. My previous chiropractor was shortening his hours and becoming increasingly hard to see due to his upcoming retirement. He started sending me to Dr. Johnson. I was skeptical at first. Where was the neck cracking, the technical jargon, and the manual back popping that would leave me aching for days? I quickly learned with Dr. Johnson that a gentle approach is the way to go. His methods and tools are focused and low impact, which leave me feeling results instead of painful side effects. He is hands down the best doctor I have ever had in the realm of helping me understand and maintain my own health and treatment. He is never too busy to break down a process or explain exactly why my lower back is twinging. He listens to my concerns, and takes them seriously. He is excellent at pinpointing events and behaviors that create and trigger back pain. I had been seeing a chiropractor regularly for my lower back and shoulder issues for years. With a relatively short amount of time with Dr. Johnson, my chronic issues have subsided to a point where I can care for myself at home by following his simple advice. I really thought I was going to have to have an adjustment once a week for the rest of my life, but now I just go in for the odd twinge or injury once or twice a year. Some other reasons to make an appointment with Dr. Johnson: He is incredibly respectful, polite, and professional. He enjoys good tea, so you know he's trustworthy. He is absolutely hassle free to schedule with. I love knowing that my very reasonable bill helps support his beautiful family. He plays excellent music. He doesn't mind when I drop in just to say hello, because even when I'm not in pain, he's just a nice person to see. I can't say enough good about him. He'll take good care of you.
And here's the third success story:
I came to Dr. Johnson after suffering neck pain after a car accident. I expected to receive the big powerful loud cracking adjustments that I’d received from other providers in the past (the ones that leave me very sore, but eventually help some). When I didn’t get that type of adjustment, I’ll have to admit, I was a little skeptical at first. But, the methods that Dr. Johnson uses, instead, seemed to leave me with little soreness, and great relief! His precise and gentle methods are exactly what I needed. He’s pleasant, funny, professional, respectful, and most importantly, effective. After working with him, I’m now nearly entirely pain free. My only regret is that I didn’t go to him for treatment sooner! Thanks, Dr. Johnson!
It's incredibly thrilling to hear these success stories, and to watch people improve with chiropractic care. Every day I receive further reminders that the Activator Methods technique of chiropractic care actually does work, and can provide life-changing results for real people with real pain.

Chiropractic: More Than Just Pain Relief

7/1/2015

0 Comments

 
Have you heard about all the good things that can happen in a chiropractic practice? Check out our page of patient testimonials to see some of the wonderful stories of improvement and recovery that have taken place at Johnson Family Chiropractic.

We just received another testimonial this week from a patient who writes that she "was in terrible daily pain in right shoulder blade area from an overuse injury at work. Had serious difficulty sleeping and using right arm. After seeing Dr. Johnson I was so much better in just 2 wks it was really remarkable and within 6 wks I was able to use arm and sleep and return to normal work. Thank you so much."

Many patients do experience pain relief as a result of chiropractic. But even more exciting to me is the restoration of function. We often don't even realize how important our body is until we lose the ability to do something that we love to do or need to do. Losing the ability to work is much more than just the loss of a paycheck. Regaining that function, restoring that ability, improving self-confidence: that's the most exciting part of what chiropractic can do!
