I "discovered" Dr. Ardell through a mutual acquaintance four years ago. My 4 1/2 yr. old son has the worst and rarest type of Epilepsy and is also Autistic with developmental delays. Since he was 6 months old he has taken a variety of potent, black box warning medications with life threatening side effects. While hoping the next pill would help with the seizures (they did not), I was unaware that he was becoming more and more toxic. Along with adjustments Dr. Ardell gave me information and suggestions for natural detoxification. Epilepsy effects sleep patterns. The only times my son sleeps through the nights is when Dr. Ardell adjusts him. The alignments also help with earaches, fluid in the ears, teeth grinding, drooling, some sensory issues and possibly, headaches. He is much happier after his adjustments. Most likely because he feels better but, is unable to express it. My son has been non-verbal but, that is gradually changing. In an effort to control the seizures, our neurologist implemented a high fat diet, which has its own list of dangerous side effects. While the diet has its benefits, I strongly feel that the adjustments, detoxifications, and the genuine caring of Dr. Ardell are the reasons my son has been seizure free for 2 years!! Five years ago my teenage daughter was diagnosed with anxiety, depression and panic disorder and given many types of medications. She was also on meds for ADD since the age of four. The many combinations of daily pills did not help her problems. They were made worse. She was having suicidal thoughts and plaguing ailments the doctors were unable to diagnose. Their solution was more medications. Her first visit to Dr. Ardell gave her some immediate relief. He told her that she was out of alignment, toxic and deficient in certain vitamins and minerals. With his nutritional guidence adjustments and natural detoxification she is thriving and in control of her life without harmful medications. Dr. Ardell has helped us through the worst times in our lives. Many believe that visting a chiropractor involves a long series of treatments. Thats true only if you need a number of treatments to be on the road to recovery. Dr. Ardell has you return for follow up adjustments only if needed. Most people think a chiropracter just "cracks" your neck and back. Dr. Ardell has naturally treated my family for migraines (none in 4 yrs), allergies, sinus congestion, fluid in ears, earaches, anxiety, panic disorder, depression, toxcitity, vitamin deficiencies, nutrition, and, oh yes, aligning our backs! Dr. Ardell has made a huge positive impact on our lives beyond adjustments. He has given me information and guidence to maintain the health of my family naturally and without chemical drugs. We have never felt better or been more healthy. In addition to all this, Dr. Ardell truely cares about his patients health and well being. He patiently explained the latest results of my sons EEG and blood tests (neurologist "didnt have time"). Dr. Ardell never rushes you out the door and answers all your questions. I think he is wonderful. Dr. Ardell has a kind heart and a beautiful soul.

I, too, have been seeing Dr. Scienski on and off for a number of years. He is the best. There was a time that I could not walk around the block (I was 50 at the time) because my lower back hurt so badly. I had really let it go too long, and actually went to several Chiropractors in the area to make sure I was getting the right information and right treatment. I settled on Dr. Scienski and never looked back. He is kind. He listens and actually hears what you are trying to say. He spends the time to educate and promote wellness. He never says that I have to set up a program or come regularly. And he is spot on in his treatment. At 55 years old, I now have a "dancers back" - in spite of arthritis, I am pain free, strong and flexible. I dance 2-3 times per week and I rarely need to see him for a tune up. Recently I started going back because my neck was going numb all the time, and I was having that achiness in my arm. I had an xray and found I had neck has degenerative discs, and 2 kyphotic vertebrae. I hadnt been there in quite awhile (just busy and not taking care of myself), but now Ive had a few adjustments, 2 massages, and voila - the last visit I felt the small "pop" that just changed everything. I know the healing isnt complete yet, but this is the best Ive felt in a year. I am so grateful for his care. Also, he offers blood tests for food sensitivities that are great. It took me awhile to give up the gluten, but I lost 17 pounds and the joint pain in my hands when I did. Also, my thyroid dosage has decreased quite a bit - not to the surprise of my endocrinologist once I told her I was gluten free. I truly think this kind of care is essential for the people who realizes that their health starts with their own commitment and participation in that process- as well as a passionate doctor who just loves healthy patients. Dr Scienski is passionate about his work and your wellness. He is a kind man. And at the risk of sounding corny, he actually glows when you get up and say, "Wow! What did you do?" Yes, I highly recommend him, and I definitely recommend him before you consult a surgeon!

I had been to 4 chiropractors through my life and thought I had finally found one that I liked until 3 months after I injured myself very badly. I was getting treated from this other chiropractor for 3 months, spent over $2,000 and was not getting any relief from my intense low back pain. He finally looked at me one day and said "Sorry, I dont know what else I can do for you." Thats when I decided I had to find a better chiropractor. One that cared about their patients and would take the time to find a solution. I was not open to having an MRI done and getting a cortisone shot just to simply numb the pain. Thats when I decided to take my friends advise and go to Skypoint Chiropractic. On my first visit Dr. Ardell found that I had 3 herniated discs in my low back. Something my other chiropractor was oblivious to. After that first visit of getting adjusted I felt at least 85% better. For the first time in 3 months I was finally able to sit down without having to use an ice pack and without being in intense pain. Within 5 days of seeing Dr. Ardell and his massage therapist I was 100% pain free!! What I like most about Dr. Ardell and his staff is that you can absolutely tell that they truly care about their patients and arent just out to get your money. They are very knowledgeable not just about chiropractic but of nutrition and overall health. I dont ever need to go to any other doctor as Dr. Ardell has a solution for everything and I mean everything...and has natural remedies that really work! No more medicine for me. Not even Advil or Ibuprofen. One really big thing for me is my food allergies - once I took yeast out of my diet it made all the difference in the world. Something non of the other chiropractors Ive been to ever took the time to educate themselves on so they could help their patients even more. I tell people about Dr. Ardell everywhere that I go now. Without him and his team of massage therapists and other staff I wouldnt have the quality of life that I have today. Not even close. Thank you Dr. Ardell, Alexis & Michelle!!!
