Hear From Patients Just Like You

I've been having issues for probably 25 years because I drove a big truck for 17 years. I used to get injections in my spine, but I don't do that anymore. I was on four different opiates. The pain in my back has subsided, and I'm now doing a lot of things I couldn't do before. I wasn't supposed to lift over 20 pounds, but now I can lift many different things and do a lot more. I've finally gotten under 200 pounds; I'm at 190 pounds now. If you have a chance to do this, please come and try it because it will change your life. You won’t even believe it! Get rid of all those pills and that poison, and get healthy.

I'd never been to a chiropractor before, and honestly, I was a little skeptical at first. But the great thing about the doctors and staff at River City is their desire to not just 'treat' you but to educate you. I've learned so much, not only from the doctors and staff but also from sitting in the waiting room and watching the informational videos and documentaries for five minutes while waiting for my appointment. If you have a chance, I highly recommend taking an hour or so to attend one of their community dinners for an introduction and eye-opening information.

Dr. Ken has an amazing skill for putting your body back in alignment and helping you feel great. He is gentle and listens to what your body needs. I have been seeing him for 10 years, and he has also seen my three children from birth. I can't say enough great things about him. Go see him and his staff; you won't be disappointed.
