“Before starting at Congruent, I would let stress take over my body and it began to affect my overall health immensely. Stress and tension continued to build up over the years; I was trying to deal with my stress through different medications and “band-aids”, which never really seemed to help.
Finding an alternative approach to managing my stress has helped me so much. After starting here, I really started to see the benefits of adjustments, and how it was helping me manage my stress in a more efficient and effective way.
My wife and I had actually been going to a different chiropractor before finding CLC, but we always just felt like a number, and not a person. It was a very rigid routine there and it would be the same adjustments every time. At CLC the care we receive each visit is individualized to our experiences and the stress our body is holding onto on that particular day. It’s never the same.
Before care, my stress levels were so high they would interfere with my sleep quality which became a vicious cycle of getting bad sleep and being in a bad mood…it would affect my entire day. Once I started at CLC I was finally able to sleep through the night! Along with my sleep quality, my over all mood has improved dramatically, and I’m in much less pain; how I feel and function has been a complete 180.
For years, I was just masking my symptoms with ibuprofen and other meds. You guys have opened my eyes to where health truly comes from and there’s been a huge shift in my lifestyle; if I do feel under the weather, my first thought is now to come in and get adjusted rather than running for the medicine cabinet. We now use holistic tools to support our bodies through illnesses, rather than suppressing the symptoms. It feels better to not have to deal with the side effects of medicine all the time.
I recently got a letter in the mail from my doctor that they haven’t seen me in over a year; this opened my eyes so much to how much our lives have changed since CLC. Before, the doctor’s office is a place I would have to frequent often; it feels so good to know I’ve been able to take control of my health. You’ve opened my eyes to thinking differently, asking questions, getting to the root cause rather than suppressing symptoms all the time, and it’s definitely paid off in the end.”

“I was coming in for prenatal care and began to learn how babies go through so much in both the womb and during childbirth. The stress that gets absorbed into their upper neck can influence all the neurology that controls growth + development, sleep + healing, and the immune system. It was so important to us that we brought Ridge in to get adjusted right after birth to address all of the stress in his nervous system as soon as possible, so ultimately he would be able to function at his best.
I wanted to make sure that he’d be set up to have the best possible development he could have, and I think through chiropractic care, that’s what we’ve been able to give him. I’ve learned tools from you guys to allow Ridge to function as best as possible. If he is fighting something immune wise, I bring him for extra adjustments to help optimize the function of his immune system. I know whatever struggle his body is navigating, he will only be able to handle it the best he can, if he has a balanced nervous system.
Prior to coming here, I had only been to chiropractic offices that would just do one scan in the beginning before starting care, but I never got subsequent scans done after that. At CLC, you are getting re-scanned frequently and are able to see your progress and how your body and nervous system is functioning on paper which is really awesome and a big reason why we decided to come here.
Another thing we absolutely love about CLC is the family atmosphere. You guys know us personally and truly care. It’s just the greatest feeling walking in and feeling known and heard.
My husband, Ridge and I all come here. I was the first one to start and saw huge benefits for myself, I knew this was a place I wanted to bring my whole family. It’s important to us to be preventative and proactive in our health, rather than just waiting for something bad to happen, and you’ve given us the tools and knowledge to do so!”

“We started bringing Rosie to CLC because she seemed really “wound up” and was way too anxious for a three year old. We were all adjusting to having a new baby in the house, so there were just a lot of changes happening all at once. Even though we were always outside, going on bike rides, eating really well and doing “all the things”, her energy was still not being released. That especially showed up at bedtime. It was almost impossible to get her to go down to bed. It was super frustrating because I felt like we were doing all of the other things, and we were still just having a really hard time. It left me wondering what we were missing!
The scans you do were so fascinating to me. I remember Rosie’s scans being all over the place, and it confirmed what we already knew about her having a ton of pent up energy inside her system that was not being released. In the past, we were also never talked to about going to the chiropractor more than once a month. Having her come more frequently made a huge difference. Things started to get easier with Rosie right after our first week of care. She would take a nap after her adjustments and I felt like those were the best days ever. She would wake up from the naps like a brand new tiny human! My husband even said she was more calm! He was definitely much more skeptical and hesitant, so when he really noticed how much better she was doing, he really believed in what you guys were doing here. So much so, that he actually started coming for care too.
The biggest difference I’ve noticed with Rosie is how much better she is able to sleep. She’s able to nap when she needs to and follows her own cues when she needs to rest. Our whole family comes to get adjusted together on Wednesdays and we use that day to spend time together. As a nursing mama, I can’t wait for my adjustment each week! My husband is on his feet all day and complains much less now that he’s getting adjusted. Our baby Zinnia was 4 months old when we started coming and we’ve never dealt with the “witching hour”, and that was something that was really hard with Rosie. Bedtime is much more enjoyable now, and there is just much more calm in our family!”
