August 2008 - Sharon Hedwall

SharonHedwall_003_1.jpgI contacted Dr. Bonnie, initially, due to a referral from a friend. I was in chronic pain and at the point where I was talking to everyone I knew to obtain a connection to a “good” chiropractor or a “good” back surgeon. I was relying on pain medication, OTC, and prescriptions to deal with my headaches, neck and shoulder pain, low back pain, and leg pain. I was experiencing numbness in my arm and hands. I felt tired all of the time, I had lost interest in most activities due to the pain caused by participating, and I was taking medication for depression.

Over the years, I had received treatment from medical doctors, other chiropractors, decompresssion therapy, and physical therapy. None of these helped for my condition. After 17 months under Dr. Bonnie’s care, I am free of my reliance on pain medication, and I am on a doctor-supervised program to eliminate the depression medication from my life.  I now wake up each morning with little, if any, pain, and I start each day with newfound energy.  I’m embarking on adventures with a renewed body and passion for life.

My painful body areas: head, neck, shoulders, lower back, and sciatica are greatly improved.  I have been able to decrease my treatments with Dr. Bonnie and still maintain an increased involvement in fun activities. I am aware that my healing process depends on the dedication I put into exercise and following Dr. Bonnie’s recommended exercise program. I appreciate that Dr. Bonnie keeps up to date and informed on chiropractic research and cutting-edge studies and shares this information with her patients. Dr. Bonnie’s practice is a patient-doctor partnership.

After my initial exam and imaging session, I realized that I had successfully located a chiropractor that excels in her profession. The time Dr. Bonnie spent with me, and her patience, helped me understand what was happening with my spinal structure - it’s functions and non-functions. Dr. Bonnie and Sarah made me feel welcome and valued as a person and as their patient, from the very first visit. Dr. Bonnie and Sarah work very diligently to make each patient comfortable and insure we are treated with care and dignity. They also manage to add a great blend of good humor. I am so thankful for my friend Kathy for her referral and for Dr. Bonnie and Sarah for the level of care they offer.

Respectfully and Thankfully Submitted by,
Sharon Hedwall
