Customer Reviews

I have had chronic pain for 20 years! I came to Dr Ryan with shoulder pain, low back pain and plantar fasciitis. I have been to countless chiros, podiatrists, physical therapists, pain doctors, orthopedic surgeons who gave multiple injections into my feet and back all to no avail. The army told me I would have to have my tendons in my feet cut and that would have ended my military career. Now, I came to Dr. Ryan 9 visits and ALL my pain on my body is gone! I am looking forward to an active pain free retirement. Thanks for everything!

I have had low back pain for 7 years after a car accident. Went chiropractor which didn’t help. I saw Dr. Whelton’s ad on IG and he showed me that my sacrum was the problem as it was out of alignment. I had X-rays and they always told me scoliosis was my problem, it turns out it was my sacrum and SI joints that were out of alignment because my condition doesn’t show up on imaging. That is why I made the appt. Because I was tired of hearing it was scoliosis and I knew there was something else happening people were missing. With a lot of exercise we stabilized my hips and sacrum into alignment and now I feel great! Whenever I feel the pain coming I just do what he taught me and I feel great!

I have had neck and knee pain for years. I went to rheumatologists, neurologists , orthopedics specialists, PT’s, chiropractic. Nothing showed up on X-ray or blood test. No one knew what was wrong but I couldn’t t walk. A friend told me to go see Dr. Ryan I live an hour away but made the drive. He showed me on that first visit that there nothing wrong with my actual knees it was a joint in my back that was causing pain in my knees. That’s why everyone missed it. I was a super skeptic but I decided to try. Now after 7 weeks both knees and my neck are better and I just went on vacation and hiked with no pain! And also I mentioned I plantar fasciitis and he fixed it in a week. It was a miracle because I had that for 2.5 yrs and had injections and no one could help it. So happy I took a chance on Dr. Ryan because I can do what ever I want now!

I threw my back out in Feb. from running and working out too much and not listening to my body. By the time my back gave out, I had horrible sciatica in my left leg that left me in tears. I saw Dr. Whelton for 20 minutes who assured me he could fix my problem with no meds, no surgery....but instead, time and stretching. I saw him 10 times and have just been given the all clear! He is amazing, very knowledgeable and if you listen, you will be back on your feet in no time!! Thank you Dr. Whelton!!

I had sciatic pain and could hardly walk. I'm still in treatment but there has been significant improvement after his care. I would highly recommend Sport and Spine.
