In the Fall of 2006, I was listening to the Maximized Living show on KRKS (94.7fm). I was already under Chiropractic care for the past 2 years for my neck & low back so when I called in for an appointment, I was interested only in the nutrition information I was hearing. It incorporated GOD into nutrition & healthy lifestyle choices.
On my first visit I found out that I STILL (after 2 years of Chiro care) had no curve in my neck. They referred me down to Dr Joel since I lived in Castle Rock October of 2006. He immediately assessed me, my adopted infant & my husband. I was the worse one of the family. With no curve in my neck & the problem in my low back he explained that there are many nerves going to vital organs from those 2 areas that are NOT getting the nerve supply they need in order to stay healthy. One of those areas services my reproductive organs. Now Im listening. I was struggling with infertility for more than 5 years at that time.
Could God use Dr Joel to get me healthy enough to actually get pregnant?
After just about 8 months, the curve in my neck was within 8 degrees of normal. 8 MONTHS doing the wedge, rehab & regular adjustments got me where my previous Chiro could not.
Now after about 15 months, I can PROUDLY answer the question above & say YES, God CAN (& did) use Dr Joel to get me healthy enough to get pregnant! After over 6 years of infertility (unexplained), we are expecting & Dr Joels practice will grow by yet another little one.
I highly recommend chiropractic care but the care you receive at Well Within Chiropractic is not like other care. Its God centered!! Dr. Joel hasnt ONCE taken credit for this pregnancy or even the returning curve in my neck. We are a TEAM. Me I have to be diligent in coming & committed to change, Dr Joel hes there to answer questions, help me make the proper changes & of course adjust me & mostly GOD He takes care of the rest, what we cant do ourselves.

My Chiropractor Has Saved My Life
I was feeling stressed, which is my normal state,
being the mother of four children aged six and
under, working out of my home, and spending way too many late night hours at my computer. For the past several years, I have sought massage as the remedy. Although temporary, it has always been effective for a few days of relief. But this time was different. I was planning the annual event for my charity, working on all the administrative duties that could be done in preparation, running errands with the children, and just racing through each day juggling everything that simply had to be done. By the time that day in August arrived, things were quickly deteriorating with my body. I was starting to have all of the telltale signs that I was reaching overload: Tightly clenched jaw, not sleeping well, upset tummy, and the return of the dreaded pinched nerve in my upper back, just under my overload: Tightly clenched jaw, not sleeping well, upset tummy, and the return of the dreaded pinched nerve in my upper back, just under my right shoulder blade. The date I am talking about was August 4th, and that morning I was taking part in a walk for a local cause. After the walk, I sat in the car and rifled through the goody bag to find a promotional card for a local chiropractor. First 3 Days of Care for Free, the card said.
Like so many people, I have always been skeptical of chiropractors, having heard through the years about how it is a useless therapy and a scam to get you to come once and then not be able to stop seeing them. But, I was starting to feel quite desperate and figured I had nothing to lose with the promotion of 3 days for free. I called and made my appointment, and can honestly say that health-wise, it was the best decision I could have made for myself. The only regret I have about it is that I have waited until I am 36 years old to make this change.
By the time I was able to get to see Dr. Joel, I was unable to turn my head to the left (this is also part of my normal stress body-breakdown). My driving was being affected as well; the dangers of limited mobility aside, I would have white knuckles from gripping the steering wheel so tight, actually requiring time to flex and massage them after arriving at my destination. The feelings of mental stress had turned into deep physical stress and pain, I felt pretty lost with how to get well. After my consultation and screening at Well Within Chiropractic in Castle Rock, Dr. Joel informed me that my neck was totally out of whack. No surprise there, but to see an x-ray of my neck showing almost no curve was scary and pretty eye-opening. The scan read-out showed the other places along my spine where I was having trouble, and of course my body had been telling me this all along. I could actually see the physical things that were affecting my daily life, and after my first adjustment, was excited by the possibilities of being truly well again.
I have been seeing Dr. Joel for about five months now and just cannot believe the change in my life. Through some hard work on my end (following home therapies and exercises as prescribed) and diligence with my appointments, I feel like a new me. I have full and normal neck mobility, which makes sleeping so much more comfortable. The pinched nerve in my back (which wasnt a pinched nerve at all) has been banished. And I have some of the curvature back in my neck. I laughed one morning as I got into my car that my body actually
fit into the seat with the headrest in the right place for the first time. Guess they manufacture those seats for correct posture after all.
There are other changes in my life that are directly related to my new relationship with my
Chiropractor. I wake up each day feeling great. My mood has lifted, and my energy level has increased dramatically. This shift has caused me to take stock of other areas of my life and make positive changes. I no longer require the anti-depressants that I was on these past two years for very real postpartum depression, and have been slowly weaning off of them. This increased energy has given me the desire to exercise with regularity, and have a heightened awareness of how all things affect my body. As a result of this awareness, I am making better choices with my diet, eating better, losing weight, and my skin looks radiant.
This may sound like a bunch of exaggerated claims, but anyone who knows me knows that exaggeration is not my style. Ask my husband and my kids, theyll describe a woman who went from grumpy to grinning.
