Customer Reviews

I have had lower back pain for 7 years, due to a car accident. I went to the chiropractor, but it didn’t help. I’ve had multiple X-rays and they’ve always told me scoliosis was the issue, because, it turns out, my condition doesn’t show up on imaging. I made the appt. with Dr Whelton because I was tired of hearing it was scoliosis and I felt there was something else people were missing. Dr Whelton was able to point out immediately that my sacrum AND SI joints were out of alignment. With extensive 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’m back to normal!

I have had low back buttock pain 4 months during my first consult Dr. Whelton was able to diagnose my issue and got me out of pain. Now I am.back to the gym doing weights and everything. He also helped my husband with his shoulder issue for 4 yrs. He helped get ankle range of motion back in 2 visits. He is now back to the gym as well!

I have had low back and groin pain for 4 years. I had xrays MRIs, steroid pills, i went to 3 PTs, 2 chiropractors, massge therapy, no one could accurately diagnose why i had severe pain. I saw an ad of Dr. Whelton FB i live an hour away but made the trip and now 8 weeks later i am pain free and now about to do Greek dancing! It was accurately diagnoaed by him it was my sacroiliac joints and my sacrum was misaligned and these conditions dont show up on xrays and MRIs which is why every one missed it. I can finally sleep through the night and i am happier and more relaxed as i am not in pain anymore and if it ever comes back he taught me how to fix myself! I am eternallygarteful and happy to have met Dr. Whelton

I have had hip/back pain for 3 years. I saw orthopedic surgeon, chiropractors, pain management doctors who recommended fusing my back or SI joint. I couldn't even walk a quarter of a block without having to stop. I went to see Dr. Whelton and he stated do not have that surgery as he actually discovered the root cause of my condition in the world. Now 8 weeks later I am totally pain free and can do anything I want. He taught me how to fix myself without him. Highly recommend

How can I capture that I was not able to have a normal life for a year and thanks to Dr Whelton, literally my life is back. But, the main thing is for you to know if you are reading this review is that you need to put in the time and months to do your exercises. IT WILL WORK! I went through ER visits, ESI injections, steroid injections, ortho specialists, spine specialists, narcotics (this is the saddest part) . And NONE of it worked. I guess the universe put Dr Whelton on my path to recovery. I missed birthdays, holidays, couldn’t sit down to watch TV with my family. The only way I could work, eat or do anything was either standing up or laying down. I COULD NOT sit. My mother in law recently passed away. I was able to fly to be with her in her final moments. A year ago, that would have not been possible. So if you are desperate like I was, feel confident this is your chance to recovery.
