Testimonials

“Before starting care at Congruent, I was having pains in my lower back and hips and I was tight through my shoulders. Now I’m a lot more tuned in to my body. I had immune challenges before. It’s helped with my anxiety, especially over the last year. It helps physically and mentally.

I knew I couldn’t feel any worse than how I felt; I learned about chiropractic and wanted to try it to see if it would help.

Seeing the scans… that was a huge wake up call to what’s going on inside the body. It was so eye opening. I’m so glad you were able to educate me on it so I could understand what was going on in my body. You can sometimes take your body for granted. I feel like now my body is working the way it’s supposed to. I feel stronger and I feel more in control of my body.

I’m able to focus better on my physical health and mental health. I feel better, I sleep better, I’m not in pain and waking up at night. I’m glad I found something that’s preventative and proactive. I know you guys really care about me and my life. This is the best thing I’ve done for my health in years.”

“We started care at Congruent Life because I was experiencing chronic neck pain and my son was experiencing chronic ear infections and sickness. He had had 5 ear infections and over 30 sick visits to his primary doctor in less than 2 years! I had tried other chiropractors and hadn’t felt any progress in my pain. We had also tried chiropractic care and western medicine for my son with little relief for him.

What Congruent Life had to offer was so different. When we got scanned, we were able to see WHY we were struggling. Dr. Mike prepared a care plan to show us exactly what it would take to get to the root of our issues. We had never been that consistent with our chiropractic care before, and that made all the difference for us. Dr. Mike is also very focused on helping with the whole body/life wellness.

In February of 2017 we welcomed our 2nd child who has been adjusted by Dr. Mike since birth. On his 1st birthday I was reflecting on his first year and how we had visited his primary doctor ZERO times for sick visits. I then went back and counted my older son’s sick visits and was astonished to see he had 30 sick visits and a 4 day hospital stay in the two years before we started care at Congruent Life.

Now, almost 3 years later I am feeling so much better and I am now much more active doing CrossFit 4x a week without pain! My kids have not been to see their primary doctor outside of their yearly well visits and we have put $0 towards our deductible! Our family is so much healthier now! Wellness and preventative care has changed our lives!”

“The very beginning part of my journey – I had a concussion 5 years ago and it was pretty severe. I had to do physical therapy for 5-6 months. I had chronic neck and shoulder pain and headaches, my upper back was chronically in pain. I got to the point where I didn’t even notice it because it was there all the time. I was to the point where I was just going through the day. I wasn’t really living. It was about 3 years before I started coming here.

After the concussion, when I would sleep, I would startle – I constantly startled. I knew that was related to my nervous system. I also have always had gut issues. I had a lot of food allergies and intolerances. My immune system was so out of whack and was just reacting to everything I ate.I’ve been diagnosed with celiac and I have another autoimmune disorder – psoriasis. It’s not severe by any means but that was triggered about two years ago when I had high stress levels. So I decided I needed to come back and make this part of my health rehab.

I had a lot of high stress with work, I own my own practice. The stress on top of the damage from my concussion was overwhelming. I had actually gone to a naturopath that suggested I do something like this.

For so many years I’ve taken the holistic approach. Years ago when I was diagnosed with celiac, I was taking more of the traditional route with medications but I’m so sensitive to medications, I just couldn’t do that. I got to a point where I knew I would have more and more symptoms. Once the psoriasis hit, that was it, I needed a reset and a lifestyle change.

I had gone to other chiropractors for more short term, pain relief. I never saw chiropractic as long term, keeping your nervous system and all the other systems in check. I had never really heard that until I heard Dr. Nikki and Dr. Mike speak about it. It made sense to me. The scans lined up with the organ systems that I was having problems with.

I think it took about 8 months here until I felt in a stable place. My neck and back were out for so long that it kept wanting to go back. I was no longer having the headaches, I was no longer having the chronic neck pain. I’ll be honest, I got worse before I got better. I was doing chiropractic but also had to do cranio-sacral massages to help release some of that stress. I detoxed hard. I knew it was something I had to go through in order to get to the other side and create that stability.

I can definitely tell a difference after coming so long. I have more energy. I’m sleeping better – I don’t have that startle anymore in the middle of the night, I sleep more soundly. I don’t feel the bloating after I eat anymore. I don’t have the pain that I had before. I don’t have tightness in my chest and neck like I used to; with my high cortisol that’s where I would hold my stress. I exercise now. Before when I tried to exercise I would be exhausted the rest of the day but I wanted to exercise because it was good for me mentally. Now, I’m energized by exercise.

Once I got stable and got over that hump, it was all worth it.“
