Client Testimonials

I cannot say enough positive things about Dr. Owings and his entire staff. I'm amazed how many of my friends bad-mouth chiropractic in general. The treatments I've received from Dr. Owings and staff have done more for me, in a shorter time, and at less expense, than any of the care I've received from "traditional medicine." I have been happy enough with the benefits I've seen since coming to Dr. Owings, that I now bring my daughter to him. Everyone at this practice has been skilled, accessible, and caring. I highly recommend them.

FINALLY, MIGRAINE RELIEF!!! Still after 2 yrs. with Dr. John I had gone to several chiropractorsin the past, and not one has ever educated me or taken the time to explain the importance of regular office visits for my migraines like Dr. John has. I've gone from having 2 or 3 migraines a week to having 3 or 4 a year!! That’s a HUGE difference. And I highly recommend a massage from the girls before seeing Dr. John. It's the perfect complement to the wonderful adjustment he gives. ****** It has been just over 2 yrs since i started going to Dr. John’s office and it's been just over 2 yrs that I have had Migraine relief. I love it!! Also any back and neck issues I may have are always taken care of with my visits. And I still highly recommend seeing the massage therapist with your visits. Very clean office, friendly staff and a lot of fun decorations for the holidays : ) I will forever be a patient there.

Advanced family is Great!!! I've been seeing the team at advanced family for close to two years. They are all fantastic! I recommend them to everyone I know. My sister-in-law, friends and other family. John does wonders keeps me up and moving. Wouldn't see anyone else. Marian K

Feel Better, More Energetic!!! Dr. John has educated me and taken the time to explain the importance of regular office visits to help me stay pain free! I have been a patient for at least 6 years, maybe longer! My neck and back pain has gone from all the time, to hardly any pain. Getting a massage from one of the girls is also a perk of the visit; I do recommend setting up an appointment with one of the Massage Therapists. They have a very friendly staff, and a it's FUN place to visit, they will help you stay healthy and pain free!!

1) What was it like before you came in to see us?
"Following rotator cuff and labrum surgery, I still had daily pain issues. I had difficulty with my range of motion and recovery time following exercise. I would wake up every morning with shoulder pain.
2) How is it now?
"I currently have rare pain issues in my shoulder now; I have slowly increased my exercise routine as well without the extended recovery time. I also very rarely wake with shoulder pain any longer. Since I began the nutrition program, I have lost over 20 pounds in approximately 2 months."

Improve your lifeI have been to different Chiropractors over the years and Advanced is the most comprehensive office I have seen. Exercise advice and classes are additional options-as well as massage before treatments (I highly recommend-your adjustments are even better once you are loosened up!) The massage therapists are all fantastic and make a visit to the office a real treat. Dr. John is able to really help with my neck and back issues. I even suffer from vertigo and he is able to give treatments that help my back and vertigo! I highly recommend a visit-you won't regret it.

Feeling Better I have a lot of shoulder and lower back pain. With the massage and adjustment that I get at Dr. Johns I walk out feeling great. My pain and discomfort level has gone way down since going to Dr. John
Melissa
Quick and Great Results I started going to Dr.John after my work caught up with my back. Working in health care I feel totally comfortable with this practice. I come in when needed, usually a walk-in basis and never wait long. They also work great with insurances. I always feel great when I walk out. If some spot is still bothering me Dr. John gets it taken care of before I leave. I was even able to go for massage and adjustments while I was pregnant, and my OB Dr. was totally cool with it!

The best in town.The doctor and staff are the best, extremely friendly and helpful. They are more than willing to work around your schedule and work with your insurance. As someone who as chronic back pain I didn't think anything would help, but when I started going to see doctor John and staff I found relieve beyond believe. Highly recommend Dr. John and staff!!
Brian
Highly recommend Dr. John Owings and staff I have gone to several chiropractors in the past. Dr. John's office is by far the best. He is very good at what he does. He listens well, is caring, and knows how to take care of his patients. Plus, his staff (Angie and Jamie) are amazing at massage which is the primary reason why I go in all honesty. All around terrific experience, and have recommended several co workers to his office.

J.V.
1) What was it like before you came in to see us?
“For 13 years I have dealt with lower back pain that I thought was just something that was normal due to my employment, being on my feet, and wearing a uniform that has extra weight around my waist. There were times I couldn’t get comfortable enough to rest and standing for any period of time was extremely uncomfortable.”
2) How is it now?
“My back pain is GONE! I can stand for long periods of time with no effort and I rest/sleep better. I feel an overall improvement in my mood and ability to deal with stress.”

2) How is it now?
I have less headaches and some carpal tunnel in one hand. I’ve had two accidents and the help with muscle soreness has been tremendous. I like the attention Dr. John takes to his patients. It makes us comfortable with him.

S.A.
1) What was it like before you came in to see us?
It all started out with a pain in my neck, but boy did it change my life. Dr. John not only helped my Chiropractic needs, but also informed me of other options for feeling “sick and tired”. Before treatment this 42 year old woman couldn’t wait for life to end. I felt worn out and “used up”, and felt I had nothing left to do but grow old and wait to die. I had gone to my family doctor – had tests done and tried different medications. Nothing seemed to work. I was told I was a mother of 4 boys and it was normal to be tired.
2) How is it now?
I noticed a difference in energy on day one. I continued to feel better every day, making decisions to feel better. Writing this down now, I am excited about life, feeling 100% better. But what REALLY excites me is if I feel 100% better now… as time goes on, with more healthy choices… How much better can I feel? 100% and beyond! Something I thought would NEVER happen! So glad to have had that neck problem, otherwise, my life may have never changed for the better.
L.M.
1) What was it like before you came in to see us?
I was in a lot of back pain and I had constant headaches.
2) How is it now?
Now I am pain free, and my headaches are fewer and less painful.
S.G.
1) What was it like before you came in to see us?
I had a lot of joint pain and intestinal problems. I hurt all over and was tired all the time. Didn’t sleep well and if I did sleep, it was very restlessly. Hot flashes throughout the day and night made me very uncomfortable and irritable.
2) How is it now?
Joint pain is 90% gone and intestinal problems have been greatly reduced. Still working with Dr. Owings on the sleep issue and the hot flashed. Better – but not gone yet! 6/14/2011– I think I finally found the right combination of food and nutritional supplements. I haven’t had a hot flash in about a week and I’m also sleeping 5 hours at a stretch!!! If I do get up to go to the bathroom, when I get back into bed, I go right back to sleep! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
T.B.
1) What was it like before you came in to see us?
Before I came to see Dr. John, or any Chiropractor, I was very leery of the idea of someone twisting my neck and my lower back. However, the medication I was on temporarily was giving me such terrible low back pain and tension headaches, I had to chance something. The pain was so bad –I was almost maxing out the dosing for Excedrin.
2) How is it now?
Immediately after my initial adjustment I could tell I could breathe better. After about a month I realized I was not taking half as much Excedrin as I had been taking, and today I have been Excedrin-free for five days. I feel better even though I am still on the medication that caused the problems in the first place. I told someone that I was seeing a Chiropractor and he asked if he (Dr. John) was a “quack.” I said, “no, he’s quirky, but all brilliant people are.”
J.C.
1) What was it like before you came in to see us?
I had severe lower back pain and tension pain in my neck and shoulders.
2) How is it now?
I cannot even describe the difference. I have so much less pain and fewer headaches. I feel that because of chiropractic I am able to exercise to my fullest potential.

This was to be a testimonial letter, but I will combine it into a testimonial letter and a huge thank you to Dr. Owings and the massage therapists. They helped me regain walking without having pain in every step that I took.
I started having trouble long before I came to Dr. Owings. I hoped the pain would subside in my back, left hip, and left leg, but it didn’t. In October of 2002 I called the office and–yes they would see me the very next day. After analyzing my problem Dr. Owings started chiropractic therapy along with massage to relieve the nerves in my spine, hip, and leg.
Within two months I could walk without the pain I had, and shall continue with adjustments periodically and be resolute in the purpose.

I just wanted you to know you’re on my list of gratitude’s this Thanksgiving. I have placed you very near and dear to the top of my list of favorites. I am so grateful that you happened to come along, crossing my path, on my journey to wellness. I feel I was left with a far better replacement once you arrived on our side of town.
Being of such conscientious, compassionate, and tolerant hearts of all my aches and pains, my sick, sick headaches, muscle spasms and countless infantile and embarrassing notes for my employer, you all continue to be of loving and kind hearts. Above all, I am thankful to your advance methods and soft manipulations. This shows me that you truly care.
As I place myself in front of my plate of low fat and low cal foods – I will bow my head and pray thoughts and praises of you and your staff for making my holiday more complete, comfortable, and well.
In gratitude and in the Spirit of Thanksgiving.
M.B.

New patients seen same day!
