Customer Reviews

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 have had sciatic like symptoms for 3 years I tried PT but it came back I did chiro and acupuncture the pain was 10/10 legitimately even on daily pain meds. I tried PT again and it didn't work. I saw an ad for Dr. Whelton read testimonials I decided to come it took us a good 16 weeks of rehab but we finally got my SI joints stabilized and low back pain gone and now I know what to do to help myself without him in the future he taught me! I was determined not to do that surgery they wanted to do turns out I didn't need it!!!!

I’ve been experiencing lower back pain for more than 15 years. Ironically, I’ve exercised almost all my life yet exercising didn’t seemed to help manage or get rid of the pain. Last year, the pain got so bad that I did the usual tests (x-rays, MRI, CTs) but every thing came back negative. An add for Sport & Spine Physical Therapy popped while on Facebook with a patient describing the pain they had and it was like he was reading my mind. I decided to give it a try and I’m glad I did. Within the first visit I experienced some relief and after the whole treatment, I can finally say I feel awesome.

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!!!

Thank you for being the light at the end of a painful tunnel. After 2 years of pain, lots of money spent on chiropractors, acupuncture, massage and even speaking to a surgeon I can joyfully say I am pain free!! I wish more people could know they don’t have to suffer everyday. There are no words that can express how grateful I am to Dr. Ryan for being able to pick my daughter up & hold her. Thank you!! My only regret is I didn’t hear of you sooner.
