Not an actual picture of Shelly (She is shy)

After years of sitting in front of a computer for 8 to 10 hours a day, I retired and moved to the Asheville. During the course of my life I had also been very active with sports of every sort. Over the years, my neck, back and hip became so troublesome to me that I walked very stiff. Pain made it difficult to carry out every day routines. Hardly a day went by that wasn’t painful to one degree or another.

My family encouraged me to see Dr. Whittington because of the wonderful experiences they, themselves, had encountered. Within 6 weeks I was able to “enjoy the day”. Riding in a car isn’t a discomfort. Hiking is enjoyable. Everyday activities are no problem anymore. Dr. Whittington has improved the quality of my life and I am eternally grateful.

Thank you Dr. Whittington

Pain interfered with daily lifeWhittington Chiropractic Patient

I was a pole lineman for 25 years. The work involved a lot of climbing and working overhead with my arms and shoulders. I am retired now yet the work has left me with persistent shoulder and neck pain. After about three weeks of care with Dr. Whittington, I was amazed that the shoulder and neck pain, which had been persistent for the last ten years, had completely gone away.

As a gardener and a groundskeeper, some of my work is quite strenuous. Several times in the past year, there was so much pain in my back that I thought I would never be pain-free again. With Dr. Whittington’s care, I have not only recovered from each setback, but I also feel more flexible and supple than I have in years.

Gardening strained backWhittington Chiropractic Patient

A few weeks ago I had spent the entire weekend laying in the recliner chair with a severe cold and doing a lot of coughing. The coughing had left me with severe pain.  I was so uncomfortable that I could barely get out of bed on Monday morning.  In addition to the current problem, I also had been having constant pain in my lower back and headaches for years.  Dr. Whittington explained how Network Chiropractic  might help and, after a series of adjustments, I began to realize that my body was changing. Not only were my back pain and headaches were gone, I also began to realize that my body ‘tells’ me when I am putting too much strain on it so that I can stop before I hurt myself. Network Chiropractic in the hands of Dr Whittington is an amazing thing.  I was amazed. I have been going to various chiropractors for over forty years (monthly or as needed), and Dr. Whittington’s adjustments have, for the first time, helped my body be at peace with itself. Thank you Dr. Whittington.

Best chiropractor in 40 years: pain gone: more at ease: better able to listen to my bodyWhittington Chiropractic Patient

I first contacted Dr. Whittington through a referral from my family medical doctor. For seven years I sought many different types of therapy for pain caused by a car accident and resulting problems in my low back, hip, shoulders, and neck. I was scheduled for surgery on my shoulder.

My right hip would keep going out. I was experiencing constant pain with grinding and stiffness in my neck. Very frequent headaches and excruciating pain in my right shoulder prevented me from using my right arm (I’m an artist). The pain would radiate all the way down to the hand and was so bad it would literally knock me to my knees. I couldn’t use my arm to do anything. My muscles and tendons were extremely tight and I had developed fibromyalgia, which caused chronic fatigue, TMJ and panic attacks.

Within three months of beginning care with Dr. Whittington, I am almost my old self again! For the first time in seven years, I can raise both arms over my head, I’m painting again, am 85% pain-free and am off all pain medication. My energy is back, muscles are relaxed, and my hip is staying in place most of the time.

I would recommend Dr. Whittington to anyone, and I do! I had previously had three years of chiropractic care elsewhere with no results and in just three months with Dr Whittington, nearly all my physical problems are corrected! Dr. Whittington is a caring person as well as a wonderful chiropractor. Don’t give up and think you’ll never be well again. With Dr. Whittington, you will get results.

Avoided shoulder surgery: frequent headaches: could not raise right armWhittington Chiropractic Patient

When I first came to see Dr. Whittington, I was having severe back pain. The pain would keep me awake at night and made it difficult to perform my duties at work. I was also concerned about how the pain would affect me during my pregnancy. After four weeks, my pain is almost completely gone. What is more important to me though, is the feeling of relaxation and peace that I now have. Stress does not bother me as much and I am calmer. (And more, after the birth of her beautiful daughter, Jade): Receiving Network chiropractic care with Dr. Tom during my pregnancy was one of the best things I could have ever done. It has helped keep my body aligned, and what is even more important to me is the way this care helps me to stay healthier emotionally.

Can chiropractic help with pain during pregnancy?

Back pain with pregnancy gone, feels relaxed and peacefulWhittington Chiropractic Patient

When I was 12, I was in a car accident and suffered whiplash. Over time, as a result of the accident, my spine has been degenerating and the amount of physical, mental, and emotional energy it has taken to carry that pain has been tremendous. By the grace of God, I was gifted with a very positive attitude and an outlook on life that has helped me to get through some very difficult times.

Also, I had been working for 15 years in a very stressful position, often putting in 50-60 hours a week. In order to maintain this stressful workload, I was spending a lot of the money I was earning just to maintain some sort of health. To say the least, the stress and prior trauma’s I had experienced were taking their toll. My neck and shoulders felt like tightly bound rubber bands ready to pop and I felt like I couldn’t even take a deep breath.

In the past I had been to other chiropractors. After reflecting on how much time and money I was spending without lasting results, I wanted to find out how I could take a more active role in getting well rather than looking to my chiropractor to ‘fix me’  every time I was in pain.

After resigning from that stressful position, I met Dr. Whittington. At first I was not sure if what he did could help me, and I had some resistance because the adjustment was so gentle and precise. I thought, “How could this possibly relieve my pain? As I worked through my resistance in care, I was able to take deeper breaths and became very aware of how I was carrying my body and how all the years of stress were still being carried deep in my nervous system. What an enormous awareness for me to gain, and what a relief!

Since starting chiropractic care with Dr Whittington, I have been able to celebrate full days with absolutely no pain. To me, that is a miracle, which I am so grateful for. I also feel more in charge of who I am and what choices I make in my daily life. I feel stronger in my center and I look forward to experiencing more days, weeks, and months without pain as I continue my care.

Thank you Dr. Whittington for your continued support, your patience, your dedication to healing and wellness, and for giving me the key to a doorway of health and well being that I can continue throughout the rest of my life. Can chiropractic help whiplash pain?

Only chiropractor that helped whiplash pain of 10 yearsWhittington Chiropractic Patient

I came to Dr. Whittington with degenerative  disk disease and accompanying nerve damage from my middle and low back down through my left hip and foot. It has been very debilitating. When I tried to sit up and read, the pain was horrible. I could hardly function and my health was failing. After a couple of months of chiropractic adjustments from Dr Whittington, I can sit up and read with only mild discomfort, hardly noticeable at times. I am now able to increase my activities and participate much more in life! I feel I have been given a new lease on life and a new opportunity to live in comfort again.

Degenerative disc disease pain helpedWhittington Chiropractic Patient

For twenty years, I have wrestled with pain due to an “irritable bowel.” I spent a lot of money on specialists who performed X-rays, prescribed drugs, and enrolled me in experimental studies. There were occasions I was so miserable, I had ended up in the emergency room for Demerol . I missed numerous days at work and was warned by my superiors that I could lose my job. Most important, I was experiencing severe pain, often for 72 continuous hours, all of which hampered my quality of life. I started to see Dr Whittington for a completely unrelated problem with my back. What I discovered after three months of care was that my irritable bowel decreased in frequency and intensity so I continued and after six months of care with Dr. Whittington, it disappeared altogether!  I was amazed and so incredibly grateful.  After suffering for so many years, to receive this unexpected health benefit from chiropractic care was surprising and I am so grateful.

Irritable bowel symptoms completely goneWhittington Chiropractic Patient

Years ago I had worked as a smoke jumper and had suffered many traumas to my back and spine from jumping out of airplanes into rough terrain. Before I started care with Dr. Whittington, I was experiencing chronic pain and worsening of flexibility. The first few visits I thought that nothing was happening because his adjustment are very gentle. Then one day soon after starting chiropractic with Dr Whittington, I realized that I wanted to take a long hike in the woods, and it occurred to me that I hadn’t felt that way in months!! Since beginning care at Whittington Chiropractic, I have much greater flexibility and a lessening of body pain. I also feel “clearer” inside, which promotes a more peaceful and youthful experience.
