In 1997 My weight loss stopped. No matter how hard I tried using the most simple proven system I had ever found, I was still STUCK! It was embarrassing to be the health coach who was unhealthy. I wanted personal health so much I dug in like a tic. I learned the habits of health a lifestyle guide written by Dr Wayne Scott Andersen and implemented every aspect I could. And I still struggled. I partnered with a local chiropractor. He helped me eliminate stress in my body and the weight trickled off over the next two years. Within two weeks of achieving my goal, (87 pounds I lost) I had a pain in my side and my chiropractor sent me to the ER. He was my primary care Doctor and he referred me out to MDs when he felt I needed one. They checked me in, immediate surgery 6 days in the hospital and I lost my appendix, three inches of my intestines and my iliocycle valve. My intestines had been leaching food into my body cavity and poisoning me. My surgeon said no one has ever exploded on his table like that in 32 years of practice. He said my weight loss saved my life. Round two...... I had to learn to not be afraid of food. I had to learn to live beyond weight loss, to overcome a FAT mind and I refused to even think about weight loss, and I did it! I was still so weak and frail, at a healthy weight yet still so unhealthy. I relocated and spent over 4 years learning about physical health beyond weight loss. I dug in like a Tic, I learned my body, having never truly broken in a pair of tennis shoes, became a martial artist, got my concealed carry and a Harley Davidson motorcycle. Healthy weight, strength, stamina, cardio had all been earned! Round three..... And then I crashed. 10 days in the hospital this time, my leg broken in three places, jaw fractured, teeth bent and lost one entirely. And the bone refused to heal. I spent a year in bed, arranged my room so everything was within arms reach. I did not even sit up for weeks, then I sat up in bed, then on the couch. A wheel chair, crutches, cane. 6 surgeries and over a year later my body began to heal the bone slooooiwly. But "why"? What made it so difficult for me to create health? AGAIN!!? Laying in bed all that time, I gained 30 pounds. I decided to lose weight and my Chiropractor from Oregon called me and told me "not yet" I felt like a horse at the gate, and I wanted the race, but he asked me if I wanted to lose that leg? So I waited..... He asked me to do a DNA test. I did, then just ignored the results. I have been bitter about starting over. I was NEVER supposed to lose weight EVER again. Now Im WAITING and conflicted... When I went to Oregon earlier this month, I visited my Chiropractor, Dr. Lubcke. He went over my test results and took blood, lots of blood. He shipped my blood to I dont even know where. Yesterday,, the picture came together. He consulted with my husband and I via webinar. In a sort of abreviated summary because I have pages and pages of duplicatable labs.... He just kept giving me more and more and more knowledge about my body and why I have struggled so much.. All this tells me "why" Ive had no energy, "why" I have not healed and its duplicatable.... So now Im on "Day 2" of the weight loss phase of my program.. I am refocusing my outcome orientation on a full trilogy of health. Healthy body, healthy mind, healthy finances, and a fourth, healthy relationships. He works with children too. Im really excited that I can get healthy again. Im angry that I have to do it, but mine is a unique situation. He only has about 4 other patients who present in as complicated a manner as I have. I have worked so hard I sometimes focus on the unfairness of it all and that is the wrong mindset, focusing on what I dont want. Oh, and he found I had a concussion. I have to address that too. There is nothing standing between me and my goal to get healthy except time and my choices. Im excited about having all of this information I did not want. Maybe this helps someone maybe it doesnt. I just wanted to share.

I have been seeing Dr.Lubke for about 10 weeks. I was in a car accident and in alot of pain and had very limited movement without pain. Because of his skilled care, treatment and excercises, I am continuing to improve and on my way to getting back to where I was before the accident.His care has helped me to be on a road to a better and healthier lifestyle of wellness. I plan to get into a more moving lifestyle and not be sedentary like I was. I feel that I will be able to get back into a resonably active life with enjoyable activities, with family and friends. Dr. Lubke and his staff have been amazing people to work with, really care about you and your wellness and helping you to be able to enjoy life again. Im on a healthier eating program, so I can lose weight and not become diabetic. Prevention is very important to me,so I can be the best that I can be. Dr. Lubke really explains what is going on in your body and how healthy changes can help heal and prevent problems in the future..My fiancee has seen alot of improvement and we now can make plans to do some fun activities together and with friends and family. Wellness is so important to me and making positive lifestyle changes so I can my grandkids and do fun things with them. This office has been a lifesaver and they do their jobs with extreme excellence and care about each and every patient. Thank you Health Touch!!!

I have gone from doctor to doctor, from naturopath to gastroenterologist to endocrinologist to internist. I tried acupuncture, gi cocktail with lidocaine, nexxium, and was eventually living on mostly powdered slippery elm bark as a cereal and not absorbing nutrients. Dr. Lubcke finally figured out my problem( that all the other things were just making worse) and I am able to eat again. I have put back on the 25 pounds I lost ( needed 20) and I am getting help emotionally as well as physically. B.E.S.T. I am a hair dresser and I am getting great help and support with my posture and chronic pain in my low back, mid back and neck. Im a complicated challenge and the Dr.s and staff are sticking with me and working it out and I am grateful!

Dr. Lubke is deeply committed to helping create and maintain my wellness. My results from Dr. Lubkes continuing skilled and caring treatment are pain-free living except in circumstances where I have behaved in such a way that I cause myself injury. In these cases Dr. Lubke treats me in such a way as to alleviate my pain and discomfort. Until I began seeing Dr. Lubke, I was under the impression that surgery was the only remedy for my back condition. With his assistance, that aspect of my life is no longer a concern. I am extremely grateful for being referred to him. Hes really good at what he does!
