Customer Reviews

I have had shoulder pain and limited movement for 3 years I was told I had bursitis and I was given shots. I could not get dressed without pain or hold my grandkids. My friend is a therapist and recommended Dr. Whelton and now I can do whatever I want, I can get dressed and hold my grandkids, I can do laundry, clean anything and he gave me the tools to keep the issue away and I feel better when I do what he says!

Psychosomatic. The word that started it all! It all started with my then 11yo daughter suddenly couldn’t walk. This 3 year journey consisted of numerous doctors visits to pediatricians, cardiologists, neurologists, rheumatologists, physiatrists, geneticists, physical therapists, radiologists and back again to a wonderful physiatrist named Dr. Batas. After my daughter’s muscle biopsy, he suggested the ‘Hip Whisperer.’ At first, I was very skeptical. But I was NOT accepting the ‘we don’t know what’s wrong. Let’s try this (insert procedure and/or doctor). ‘ AND I just wanted my daughter’s pain level to stop being an 8 out of ten and for her to stop taking pain medication. Hip whisperer, Whatever! 🤨 Can you say that my daughter walks beautifully, is stronger especially when she is playing soccer, best posture that she has ever had, no pain meds, does the splits, she runs, she climbs, she lifts, she can sit up, she can do a crunch! 😜 But the most important thing to me: She smiles. She is so happy now. You don’t know how that makes me feel. All because of a man who went beyond the typical medical mindset and found something that effects so many in silence for so long. Dr. Ryan Whelton. The Hip Whisperer. He is amazing. Plus, My daughter thinks that he has a nice doggo. 💖

I am so glad I came here for consultation. Dr. Ryan is very attentive to details. Each time I come for my treatment I have a significant relief and range of motion for my neck is much better. I am now able to do my walking exercises again. Plus there’s a lot of videos on YouTube and on his page that are so helpful I even sent to my mom and she even do some exercises that was shown and told me she felt better! If you have pain, see him right away!

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 tried Chiropractic, I tried and SI joint belt, massage therapy and pain medication with minimal help. I saw an ad for Dr. Whelton and he said he has great success with SI joint dysfunction for low back pain. Now I am in no pain I can walk, stand for long periods and do whatever I want highly recommend going to see him!
