The girl on the left was severely depressed and no longer really cared if she was here anymore. She had anxiety and was low on ambition. She constantly was sick with this cold or the next. She was pale all the time and her face was always broken out. She was addicted to pop and other processed foods. She tried to lose weight by doing intense workouts. She had a lot of joint pain, which prevented her from riding horses and doing many other activities that she loved. She felt trapped in her life with nowhere to go (just work and home). At home she numbed her mind to escape from her life with TV, internet and computer games. At 180lbs (size 10) she no longer could look in the mirror and say her loved herself. She avoided taking pictures, because she no longer felt beautiful. She no longer knew who she was and didn’t feel like herself. Seven months after choosing to reclaim my life back and with the help of many knowledgeable professionals (Holistic Performance, Jonathan Tanksley, Vita Nova Spinal Care, Dr. Chavez, Pierce Family Wellness and Tj Pierce) you get the girl on the right. This girl is happy, healthy, loves life and is who she was supposed to be all these years. I am beautiful and love myself. I have ambition and goals. I no longer have to numb my mind, because there is always so much to learn or do. I weigh 130lbs (size 4). I haven’t been sick for over a year. I finally was able to break my addiction to pop and other processed foods. I now eat: all organic, eat 2500-3500 calories; follow Paul Chek’s primal pattern diet. Dr. Chavez works with CHEK practitioners to help you have the unsurpassed results with a quickest recovery time possible. The CHEK practitioner who Dr. Chavez referrers his client to are the most knowledgeable professionals I have ever worked with. Their assessment is the most comprehensive assessment I have ever been to and they immediately knew how to fix the problems. These biomechanical issues that these CHEK practitioners and Dr. Chavez fixed many other professional doctors had no clue how to fix or what they were. I have been to a few different physical therapist, doctors, orthopedic surgeons and they all just told me it was some unfixable problem, to take pain medication, to stop doing activities that I love and one day you will most likely need surgery. I must say they were most definitely 100% wrong, because I am no longer in pain and can do all the activities I wasn’t able to do before the help of these professionals. Dr. Chavez and Jonathan Tanksley helped me with nutrition concerns and put me on the correct supplements and food recommendations that supported my body to heal. I now can swallow pills, which I have never been able to do. I provide my body with the nutrition it needs to maintain its health and vitality. I only spend an hour at the gym doing functional exercises that my body needs to improve. Dr. Chavez, Jonathan Tanksley, and Tj Pierce are very caring individuals who truly wants their patients to heal and to be functional at an optimal level. Dr. Chavez was always there to help correct any problems that you might walk into his office with. Without the work from Dr. Chavez, Tj Pierce and Jonathan Tanksley I wouldn’t be where I am today. My biomechanics are much better and my body is functional. I can actually do activities that I love and I even picked up snowboarding the first day no problem. A special thanks to: Holistic Performance, Jonathan Tanksley, Vita Nova Spinal Care, Dr. Chavez, Pierce Family Wellness and Tj Pierce for helping me get aligned and functional. I took my life back with organic whole foods and the support of a bunch of very knowledgeable professionals.

I have had neck pain for 10 years, likely caused by some long-ago injury that started showing symptoms much later. As the pain worsened each year, I sought help from my primary care doctor, two neurologists, a neurosurgeon, two physical therapists, a chiropractor, an acupuncturist, and numerous massage therapists. I have also bought countless pain relief items, such as pillows and back supports, and taken bottles of ibuprofen and acetaminophen. Several doctors said my pain was due to aging (I’m in my early 60s), that this was to be expected so get used to it, and there was nothing they could do to help me. By the tenth year, I was experiencing extreme pain – shooting pains up both sides of my neck, an increasing number of migraines, much irritability, and the beginnings of depression. Simple, ordinary activities like grocery shopping and washing my hair were impossible. I mentioned all this to a friend who recommended Dr. Chavez. She said, “He is a healer,” and that caught my attention. After five months of treatments, I am feeling much better than I have for a long time and finally believing in someone who has helped in getting my life back. Dr. Chavez is the only care provider I have seen in 10-years who has focused on treating the cause of the problem and not just the symptoms. I am doing more now than I could have done a year ago. But most importantly, I am no longer planning my days around managing my pain. I am enjoying life again. I highly recommend Dr. Chavez. He is truly gifted and knows exactly how to get to the source of the problem. Thanks so much Dr. Chavez! You definitely are a healer.

I began suffering from severe symptoms due to hormonal imbalance in March of last year: anxiety, insomnia, depression, dizziness. Sometimes I felt I was having a heart attack and was going to die, sometimes I just wished I would die because I felt too horrible. I tried lots of remedies and nothing seemed to help. Finally I was told I was going to have to go on drugs. I really didnt want to do this but didnt know what I should do instead. Just when I was at this point, I found some information about Vita Nova Spinal Care at my church. I didnt have much hope about this but I needed something to try. From the first meeting with Dr. Chavez, I was very impressed by his knowledge and care for his patients. Immediately following my first treatment, I began to feel better. I can now live my life again. I am very grateful to Doctor Chavez for all he has done for me and for my family. My sixteen year old son had a variety of problems. One leg seemed to be shorter than the other, his posture was bad, he would get chest pains and sleepless nights. He often lacked energy. He also had a hand which had never really recovered after an accident so that he could barely write. Now six months after beginning treatment all these conditions are greatly improved. It is really like having my son back again and he is very glad that he has been able to come to Vita Nova. My husband and I are now bringing our whole family to Vita Nova. It is the first time that we can really look forward to going to the doctor. We are very happy to be able to have this opportunity to do something positive to take care of our health.

Sleepless Nights-Say No More Six months ago I was desperate, suffering a severe case of insomnia. My insomnia, sleepless and restless nights, had begun years ago; I didnt want to remember how long ago. Last September, I had new classes to teach, new schedule, and I was worrying about everything. Therefore, no sleep. One morning, I went out walking around Geneva Park pond in Littleton, one of my usual walks. I was glad to be outside, but felt afraid. Nights were getting worse. I walked around the pond, and on my way back, I began to pray. That God would help me. Walking back home on Prince Street, I saw Dr. Chavezs office building. I had been there before with my daughter, once his patient, and her little boy. Without thinking, without deciding, I crossed the street and walked into his office. And that is how I began to sleep, feel less fear, less worry, and feel less threatened by life and its obligations. I ended up having a consultation, chiropractic treatment, which I am still following, and it has changed my life. I can now enjoy things, and my nights. I sleep. Some nights I might still wake up, but the fear of not going back to sleep has gone, I go back to sleep, and dont worry about the next days activities or if I will I be able to handle them. Thank you Dr. Chavez for being there, and doing what you do, and thank you Taylor at the reception desk for being so welcoming. I wish everyone who has similar problems would go and see Dr. Chavez, and I hope my short story helps and encourage those in need. A.J. 5 months
