Customer Reviews

I have seen Dr Whelton for 10 weeks of physical therapy and he has helped me with my back more than any doctor 8 have seen. I started with back pain in 2016, was asked how I was walking and had chiropractor services to ease the pain. I have been told I need surgery but I’m afraid to do it. The physical therapy has helped me more than anything. The exercises help keep everything in place. Less money, less pills. No surgery. I would recommend Dr Walton to anyone with back pain.I’m happy with my results! Thank you Dr. Wheaton!!

I have had back pain for 20 plus years. I had tried epidural injections, PT, Chiropractor, MRIs acupuncture, massage they told me my constant low back and buttock was "sciatic" pain from a disc I found Dr. Whelton on Facebook came in and on the first visit I was out of pain now 7 weeks later I am pain free! I can do my daily life I am no longer depressed because I thought I would never get better highly recommend do yourself a favor and make an appointment! It was close to one hour away i drove but worth it!!!

I have had low back pain and leg pain for 5 years I have had acupuncture, steroid injections, 3 MRIs, tried PT, chiropractic nothing worked. I couldn’t walk they told me it was sciatica the pain was to the point that I was in tears. I saw a FB ad of Dr. Whelton and on the first visit I was out of pain it wasn’t even sciatica it was my SI joint and sacrum. Now I walked 10 miles around Disney with my kids!!!! Highly recommend. Super ethical, no BS very direct and knowledgeable! He taught me what to do if it ever flares up again so I won’t need him or anyone! Highly recommend!!!

After experiencing severe dealing lower back pain for almost 10 years I was never able to pinpoint the problem or find a solution. After going to countless doctors no one was able to figure out my problem and how to fix it. One day I stumbled upon Dr.Whelton’s page on Facebook. After reading many reviews and experiences that sounded similar to mine I decided to give it a try. I was amazed at how quickly he was able to identify my problem and within 2 weeks my pain was already starting to disappear. By week 5 I was pain free and able to go back to lifting weights pain free and doing exercises I hadn’t been able to do in years such as squatting and deadlifting without a problem. I had pretty much given up and believed this was going to be a problem I was going to have to deal with for the rest of my life but Dr.Whelton was able to change that. So glad I made the decision to give it a try and would recommend anyone else dealing with similar issues to do the same.

I have ankylosing spondylitis which effects the SI joints in my back. I had it for 20 years, I had weakness and I always felt misaligned with pain in my back and hips and pelvic floor. I tried chiro, traditional PT to no avail. I saw Dr. Whelton’s ad and decided to come in and give him a shot and now I am pain free and he taught me how to realign myself. He also instilled confidence in actively not being afraid if symptoms re-emerge I know how to fix my back and hips.
