Patient Testimomials
I came to the Goldsworthy Wellness Centre about 18 mos. ago with constant headaches that plagued me everyday. I started receiving treatment from Kyle on a bi-weekly basis. It took about 3 treatments for me to really notice any significant difference. At first I even felt worse & sore everywhere he had worked. We talked about this and he explained this was o be expected because he was trying to change the way my muscles and body worked daily and they were kicking up a fuss because they were used to being one way for so long. But unfortunately for me, that way was probably resulting in my daily headaches.
Anyway, over the next 6 months my headaches became almost non-existent and my treatments were gradually spaced further and further apart to about every 4-5 weeks. I was very pleased with this result! In the early part of this year Kyle and I had a scheduling conflict, he was taking a course on the only night I could come in due to child care issues.
Anyway, I figured since my headaches were so far and few between, I'd not fret too much. So, knowing about the scheduling problem with Kyle I figured I'd try someone else. What is the big deal right? Wrong. The therapist I went to was OK, but didn't know why my muscles the way Kyle did. I decided to give it a couple tries but still no luck. I still felt worse.
Luckily by the end of all this Kyle's course was almost finished and I was finally able to get my appointment back. I've been headache free since.
Thanks Kyle and you're not allowed to take anymore courses!
Our son had a neck injury acquired from a difficult birth (vacuum assisted). At around eight weeks of age he began receiving chiropractic adjustments and physiotherapy to correct it.
When he had reached the six month mark, we started to notice that he was not meeting some of the development milestones we were seeing in other children and his eyes did not seem to be able to focus on stationary items. We contacted our Pediatrician and he referred us to an Ophthalmologist whom then referred us to a Pediatric Neurologist. The Doctor was able to determine that his eyes were healthy, he sent our son for a CT scan to rule out lesions or tumours of the brain. Thank goodness that was clear!
Looking for answers, we visited a Pediatric Ophthalmologist. He provided no conclusions and I had become frustrated about the lack of knowledge of my son's condition.
Still looking for answers, I talked to Dr. Jeff about my concerns. He immediately referred us to an upper cervical (neck) specialist and from there they referred us to a Pediatric Chiropractor.
After only seven weeks of care, we have seen him reach the milestones we had been waiting for -things he could not do weeks earlier.
My sincerest thanks Dr. Jeff for all your help and concern.
My patient presented to the clinic on March 6, 2006 with a strong desire to optimize her health and nutrition. Her chief complaints were fatigue, especially after exercise, and muscle cramping and strain during her workouts. Her initial weight was 175lbs, with 28% body fat. Over the next 8 months we worked on her overall nutrition and her pre and post exercise nutrition. We enhanced her nutrition with vitamins and minerals, re-nourished her adrenal (stress glands), and detoxified her system. By changing her nutrition and ensuring proper electrolyte balance during exercise, her muscle cramping, fatigue and strain disappeared and her overall energy increased. As of November 30, 2006 she weighed 154lbs with 22.6% body fat. This is better than optimal for her age. I recently saw her in January, and she has maintained her weight while enjoying and thriving in her new, healthy lifestyle. Congratulations on all of your hard work and efforts to achieve optimal health and wellness!
"At the start of my weight loss goal, I found the motivation to exercise, but I needed guidance on proper nutrition. I had a very demanding sweet tooth that I thought was incurable and I often felt ill after eating because the snack was high in sugar or I overindulged. Now, I rarely ever crave chocolate or sweets and I can balance each meal properly by following Robin's advice.
The advice from Robin is so simple and natural. The food changes are quite easy to maintain and I have never felt this good in my life. I have energy throughout the day and most importantly I now
feel that I'm in control of my life."
I had been suffering from left arm pain in my muscles and tendon for approximately 10 weeks. I was referred in to Goldsworthy Wellness to see one of their chiropractors by a friend of mine who assured me that I would get better.
He treated me with chiropractic adjustments, ultrasound and the muscle stimulator. I saw the chiropractor for just 3 weeks and I felt much better. My pain was relieved and my mobility increased greatly.
He also taught me how to exercise my arm properly to restore my normal strength and not hurt myself again.
Thank you for relieving this very bothersome problem for me.
In 1992 I tore the meniscus in my right knee which was quite painful and required surgery to repair. During the surgery the Doctors discovered that I also had Osteo Arthritis and recommended a knee brace to help alleviate some of the pain associated with this condition. At the same time I started to take Glucosamine Sulphate (as recommended by Dr. Jeff) which also helped with pain management in my knee and many other injured parts of my body due to the years of competitive sports.
Although the pain was manageable, my knee continued to hurt all of the time at varying degrees of intensity, my family Doctor prescribed Codeine and the after tearing the ACL ligament 3 years ago, I was prescribed slow release Morphine. To my surprise these drugs numbed my brain and many other bodily functions but my knee continued to cause me great pain. Desperate for relief (while I wait for yet another surgery) I turned to Dr. Jeff for advice. He recommended that for one month I take a combination of Inflavanoid and Kaprex. Inflavanoid is a natural form of a pain killer and Kaprex is a natural anti-inflammatory, explaining that it takes about four weeks for the Kaprex to get into your system.
For the first time since 1992, my knee is completely pain free and I have been able to resume many of my activities (with the aid of a knee brace for stability) with out pain! In my case the pain went away in three weeks and I would recommend this course of action to anyone who is experiencing pain or discomfort.
Kaprex and Inflavanoid allow me to go about my very busy life without the distraction of every day pain.
Thank you!
In April of 2002, I was involved in a car accident leaving me to deal with severe pain of my neck and back. A few years later, after repeated visits to my family Doctor and several pain prescriptions later, my Doctor finally ordered an MRI and referred me to Dr. Jeff.
Since the accident, I had on average been ill from a cold or flu every three weeks, felt constantly run down and had constant headaches and nausea. The severe pain I was suffering from also interrupted my sleep each night and driving was an issue because I had limited mobility in my neck. The most serious issue arose from the amount of pain medication I was taking, it started to affect my stomach. It became unbearable to live like this. That all changed when I started to see Dr. Jeff.
Since January of 2008, I can finally sleep through the night comfortably, I haven't taken a pill for pain, including Advil or Tylenol, I have not had one single headache and I finally have the energy to take my boys for walks and do fun family outings.
Thank you Dr. Jeff.
