Customer Reviews

I been having back problems for a long time now. Last year my lower back really started hurting feeling like my back was on fire. Went to my Dr. And they prescribed me muscle relaxer but she also recommended me physical therapy. The muscle relaxer help ease the pain a little but the problem was still there. That's were I went to Sport & Spine Physcal Therapy it was what I needed for my back. Ryan took his time to explain to me my situation and how he was gonna free me from pain and sure enough I've been feeling great. I've been able to work which I'm a detailer that's constantly bending down and in need of my back to be pain free. Thanks Ryan a differently 5stars.

after 3 years of trying everything (injections, traction, chiropractic, and physical therapy) I couldn't drive 5 mins home from work without being in severely back pain i had to lay down in my car because I was hurting so bad when I was trying to drive. One of my employees told me about Dr. Ryan and the amazing results they know people get. I live in oldsmar and it is a bit of a drive but was well worth it. Now 5 weeks later just as he said I am pretty much pain free. What's more is that he taught how to help myself in the future and I don't even him! I own a business and that is unheard of. A true healer he is.

I have had low back and buttock pain since 2014 I had to stand because I couldn't sit and drive more than 20 mins. I started seeing chiros in 2017 I got worse with treatment and couldn't work anymore. I did steroids injections, PT, orthos. I even flew to Japan to find an SI joint specialist with no results. Then I flew to Ukraine to get help it didn't fix the problem and I was back laying in bed all day. I found Dr. Whelton in an SI joint dysfunction group from someone in Canada who recommended him. I researched him and decided to come see him. Now after 4 months of extremely hard work and time of doing what he told I can now cook clean, drive go to grocery store and even get back to work as a dental hygienist which is strenuous on the back. I know how to fix any misalignments myself,Dr. Whelton taught me! All my friends who had SI joint surgeryare still in pain and don't know what to do next. Highly recommend! Don't give up keep it up until your better b because this works and you can go back to a normal life! !

I originally went to a Dr. and they suggested spinal fusion surgery. Really glad I spoke with Dr. Ryan, after a few weeks of treatment with him my back has not felt better. It turns out I didn’t need surgery at all, it was my SI Joints that needed to be adjusted and stabilized. I won’t need to see anyone else for this as he taught me how to maintain and fix it again if it happens again.
