I had a lot of lower back pain and leg pain. Every 2-3 months I would be unable to stand erect, walk comfortably or sit for longer than ten minutes. I was no longer able to lead a normal life. No skiing, hiking, biking, walking etc. I was missing time at work. A friend recommended Dr. Whittlesey. I had never been to a chiropractor before. I am very pleased with my treatment and Dr. Whittlesey’s wonderful attitude has my attitude about chiropractic. I regret not coming here 3 years ago.
