Customer Reviews

Found Dr Whelton after breaking my back. Came to see him and on very first visit he was able to diagnose and fix my pain to a manageable level. Stress was another major factor I was suffering from and Dr Whelton was able to show me ways to relieve my stress, exercise my back and heal. Highly recommend him and his practice. 10 visits later and my back feels great and my stress level is zero!

I have had severe low back pain for over 4 years I couldn’t stand up to even go to the supermarket to get groceries. I have had over 40 injections into my low back but it never worked and no one could tell me WHY I had it. I have tried other PTs, chiros, pain management, acupuncture, massage nothing helped. I saw Dr. Whelton’s ad and figured one more chance to try. He diagnosed me with not only a herniated disc in my back but what everyone missed and he caught was that I had a mechanical issue in my sacrum and pelvis that was really causing all the pain which didn’t show up on X-rays and MRIs. I didn’t even believe my doctors even could understand how painful my condition is (was) Now, I am pretty much pain free and he taught me how to not him or anyone again of it flares up. Highly highly highly recommend him I always recommend people to come see him! I am so bummed today as it is my last visit with him:(

I have had low back and butt and right thigh pain that was crippling me for 6 months. I have tried 2 PTs, I had my spine injected, chiropractor, massage, float tank, meds nothing helped me. I saw Dr. Whelton's ad came in. I felt better on the first visit, he diagnosed me with SI joint dysfunction which is why he said everyone missed it because SI joint dysfunction doesn't show up on xrays and MRIs so they told me the cause of my pain was a herniated disc. Dr. Whelton disagreed and now I feel much better and I did his homework faithfully and reaped the results! Now I can do whatever I want and not afraid of my back going out bc he trained me on how to fix it if it happens again!

After 40 years of living with pain and trying several different treatments and drugs for only temporary relief of my pain, I tried sport & spine and was surprised at the results! No more constant nagging pain! Dr. Shelton was able to fix my lower back pain as well as the shoulder, neck and hip pain. I feel like l have my life back!

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!!
