Not really knowing the importance of chiropractic care… or much of what went on… I walked through Dr. Ackerman’s door, and was greeted, shortly, with a whole-mini demonstration—both visually and verbally—as well as a scan of my own spine’s nerve endings. Dr. Ackerman really took the time to answer all of my questions—since I asked one every other sentence—and repeat the synopsis of his practice. Within minutes—I all of a sudden felt this draw, to follow and listen to the steps & procedures he set out in front of me. It was like I knew—it had been the thing I had been seeking. I have felt myself suffering from lack of complete confidence, connectedness, purpose and awareness of my body and, therefore, life. Being that I am 23, it is already sort of a tough time—but even when it would be the case that I would come to an answer, my life was still filled with indecision. Even if I’d make a decision I knew by my intuition was the right one to take—I still found doubt, resistance to take action, fear of progressing forward (the unknown), or even lack of coping skills to continue forward onto success. To make it simpler to communicate…I labeled this all as “anxiety” which me went hand and hand with “depression”. Again and again, I came to the conclusion that these “disorders” were physical ones… which required physical treatment… But no matter which supplements I stuffed in my mouth… Or how many times I spoke it out… Or did yoga.. etc. I still found the inability of myself, lurking there… leaving me dysfunctional, and even worse, unsatisfied with the reality of my life. I tell you this because… After just my first adjustment… My physical vision changed. My eyesight was clearer, more defined. My thoughts were slower… All the worries I had been thinking over and over… vanished. After 1.5 months of treatment, 2x a week with Dr. Ackerman… I understand that the spine is the channel, which the nerves of our body stem off of, to send signals from the brain. Dr. Ackerman told me at examination of my x-rays that my spine was one of the worst of his patients he’d seen in a while. Something there, went off in my brain. I f a r o a d i s d e s t r u c t e d f r o m p o i n t A t o p o i n t B. . . W o u l d e v e n a h e a l t h y, f u n c t I o n i n g c a r … Be able get to its destination?! In other words, I wasn’t “lost”…”confused”… I was out of alignment. Physically. No longer did I have to feel sick of feeling so much older than my age. I now understand how to train the body &&how I had been standing vs. the proper way my body should be held so that the vertebrae fall the way they were created to. Why should I be overextended or “hunched”, have tightness keeping me from being the adventurous and expressive person I love being? We should be born with this knowledge. The body always wants to aid you in living the life you were born to live… Being the person you were meant to be. But due to stress, perhaps injury (but not always), and other life circumstances… Sometimes we get re-routed from our Truth, mentally, spiritually… but EVEN PHYSICALLY. If you have tried multiple ways or solutions to feeling more connected, grounded, confident, able and positive about anything and everything in your life… even when tough times come…. Bc I’m not saying they won’t… Don’t feel alone. Or incapable. Or overwhelmed. Deal with them with the proper guidance. You deserve the ability to deal with them!!! SEEK CHIROPRACTIC CARE!!! AND SEEK IT HERE… bc you will not only get the adjustments and therapy you need && desire…. You will get the understanding and knowledge, to empower you, and send you as high as you are willing to shoot for! And sometimes that’s even more valuable. Thank you Active Team, for putting me back together (or my back-back together)!!

When I first came to the office, my neck and back were in severe pain from a car accident I had. I couldnt even move my neck in either direction. Over time, I have not only been able to move my neck but I can also enjoy a book without having to hold it in the air to read it. My back is also relieved tremendously. The most important thing is that in my healing, I was able to gain a great deal of knowledge on healing through a holistic approach by understanding the innate intelligence the human body posesses. I am feeling great relief from the 6 months of consistent care and know that I will make a complete recovery because of Active Chiropractic Care. I highly recommend this chiropractor to any and everyone!!!
