I have been dealing with low back pain for almost 20 years. it started when I was 35, gym injury. Over this time period I would have flare ups that would put me in bed for sometimes a week or 2. My usual go to is massage, cranial chiropractor and acupuncture. When I am desperate I take a steroid for a few days. A couple months ago I was in a really bad place where nothing would relieve my pain. I was having trouble .sleeping sitting standing walking driving and I was going out of my mind with frustration. This was right around the time my mother passed away so I was also dealing with mental stress. I found this ad on Facebook a while ago and ignored it when I saw it again I thought I might as well try something else. I almost canceled my 1st appointment because I thought I would not be able to drive there. I prayed the whole way there. after my 1st visit I almost cried, tears of joy, because I had no discomfort when I had to drive home. After only 2 months of weekly visits and doing my exercises and stretches on my own twice a day everyday I am almost completely pain free. All this time I thought it was just my low back that was bothering me to find out that it was my SI joint. All it takes is a little faith and commitment.

I have seen Dr Whelton for 10 weeks of physical therapy and he has helped me with my back more than any doctor 8 have seen. I started with back pain in 2016, was asked how I was walking and had chiropractor services to ease the pain. I have been told I need surgery but I’m afraid to do it. The physical therapy has helped me more than anything. The exercises help keep everything in place. Less money, less pills. No surgery. I would recommend Dr Walton to anyone with back pain.I’m happy with my results! Thank you Dr. Wheaton!!

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!

I had sciatic pain and could hardly walk. I'm still in treatment but there has been significant improvement after his care. I would highly recommend Sport and Spine.

Just want to give a shout out to Dr Whelton! I came in with debilitating pain in my tail-bone, coccyx area. I had tried acupuncture, chiropractic care, injections from orthopedic dr, minimally invasive surgery on my spine only to receive temporary relief. Since I have been seeing Dr Whelton my tailbone pain has reduced considerably. I went from a 9 in pain scale to a 2. Dr Whelton gave me a series of exercises specific to my sacral pain. It wasn’t easy but so glad I followed the plan. I will continue to do the exercises prescribed. Dr Whelton and his assistant Annette are awesome. If you need a Dr that listens and take the time to explain your condition he is the guy! Thinks out of the box with respect to hard to diagnose cases. I am blessed to have found.
