I am so thankful that I found Smith Elite Family Chiropractic. After about 5 months of good care with a different Chiropractor, I decided to switch to Dr. Smith since his office was closer to home, allowing me to continue chiropractic care for my baby as well. When I sat down with Dr. Smith to discuss my initial scan results, I was shocked that he knew exactly what I was going through without me saying a word.
Ten months before seeing Dr. Smith, I was diagnosed with femoral nerve damage from childbirth. I was in a walker and crutches for 6-7 weeks and in physical therapy for 4 months. By the time I walked into his office, I was learning to run again, but I still had a significant lag in my injured leg and quite a bit of numbness. I began chiropractic care due to these physical symptoms from my injury, but Dr. Smith recognized much more than that.
At the time, I thought that I was going crazy. A few months after my injury I became extremely irritable, and the smallest things would set me off into a downhill spiral that I couldn’t control. I couldn’t even get through a single load of laundry without having an emotional meltdown. I was also afraid of stairs, even stepping off a curb made me nervous and acted as a constant reminder of my injury. I never mentioned any of this in my initial conversations with Dr. Smith, since my sole focus was on the physical recovery. However, stress and irritability were one of the first things he brought up when analyzing my scans. It was at that point that everything began to make sense, there was not only a reason behind my intense reactions but an opportunity to fix the problem.
With consistent care I noticed a huge difference in my recovery. The conversations and adjustments were exactly what I needed. Now I can run without a limp, the numbness in my leg is unnoticeable, and the improvement in my mental health has been lifechanging. I feel like myself again, and I know that I am a better wife and mother because I made this commitment to chiropractic care...
Read moreI found this place on Facebook, an advertisement. My daughter was looking for a chiropractor that was into total body wellness. We believe in healing the inside as well as the outside. We like finding the root of issues, not putting bandaids on symptoms. We also appreciate doctors who genuinely care. You can tell by the amount of time and attention they give you. You can tell because they actually listen to you. The advertisements made it seem like this would be a perfect fit. They even offer workshops to teach people amazing things about the body - really important things!
My daughter had a great experience and a ton of relief from migraines and pain. She was so impressed, she thought some of my [seemingly chronic] problems could be improved if I began treatment too. She paid for me to go! I’ve only been a couple of times so far, but the attention Dr. Garrett gave during the assessment, the way he listened, and then the actual treatment - 5 Stars! Everyone in the office is 5 Star! You’ll see.
If you are more about total body wellness and fixing the root of the problem... If you want more than just a crack and go scenario, THIS IS THE PLACE! Trust me.
UPDATE: I’ve been coming for a little over a year. Maintenance. This is a part of my overall wellness plan and I don’t miss a week. It improves my focus, my pain, and entire wellbeing! Dr. Jon and Dr. G are both amazing!! The staff is fantastic. It’s like another family I...
Read moreI have been seeing Dr. Garrett for almost 2 years now. When I first came in I could barely walk, my lower back and hip pain were so bad after having three babies and a lot of stress on my body from health issues. Dr G worked with me to give me so much more flexibility and I now have almost zero pain! What I didn’t realize was how many other effects chiropractic would have on my health. I almost never get sick anymore, my body feels strong and resilient, my immune system is so much more capable of handling things, and my overall stress levels and emotional regulation have gotten so much better that I almost don’t recognize myself. My whole family has noticed the changes and I’m so grateful! I feel like a new me.
And speaking of the whole family, we all see Dr G now! We have seen so many positive changes in our family’s health and well-being. I’m especially thankful for how Dr G has helped my daughter deal with her challenging nervous system issues - she has begun to flourish in such beautiful ways and to enjoy all the things she’d been struggling with a year ago. Her motor skills and reading ability are picking up rapidly and she’s actually excited about learning instead of frustrated all the time. She doesn’t deal with stress-induced stomach aches anymore, she’s healthy and her sleep has gotten drastically better. I’m incredibly grateful for that. 💕
We highly, highly recommend Smith Elite Family...
