READ VON’S CHIROPRACTIC STORY
At Von’s one month pediatrician appointment we were told he needed physical therapy for his Torticollis. Almost two months of physical therapy, he was still only sleeping on one side of his head causing a flat spot to develop. He was also having issues lifting his head. When your baby isn’t hitting mile stones you start to worry.
We decided to go a different route and try chiropractic care. I read up on multiple practices in our area and we found ourselves at Valeo. Two adjustments in Von was sleeping on both sides of his head, which literally brought me to tears. A month in he is exactly where he should be when it comes to milestones and more. Von absolutely loves getting adjusted and smiles through every single one!
We were presented a care plan after our consultation. The care plan gave us a plan of action and upfront expected costs! Everyone who works at Valeo is incredible, and very knowledgeable. They make our short trips in such a great part of our day!

When I first came to Valeo for my recurring headaches I had already given up on medication and decided to just suffer day in and day out for the rest of my life. I didn’t really expect to see results, but Dr. Alex was so sweet I figured I’d give her a chance. Within 2 months I had referred my husband in and shortly after we started bringing in our kids. Once you start feeling healthy, you want your whole family to feel healthy! Anytime we had an ache or pain, we’d go to Dr. Alex. Kids had an ear infection? Off to Valeo. Chiropractic care is more than just a quick fix though and we have continued to maintain our family’s wellness because we want to feel good for as long as we can! I will forever be grateful to Dr. Alex and the Valeo team for educating me about my health and helping my family live healthier lives.
READ WALKER’S chiropractic STORY
Walker was diagnosed with torticollis at his 2 month well check. Our pediatrician gave us some stretches to do with him and said that if it didn’t improve he would need further intervention. I started researching and read so many success stories from moms that took their babies to the chiropractor to help with stiffness and mobility. I desperately wanted to avoid needing a helmet or further medical intervention so I decided to give it a try. Walker has been seeing Dr. Alex and her staff for the past 2 months and I have seen huge improvements! He turns his head easily from side to side, has started tolerating tummy time and has become much happier overall! At his 4 month well check our pediatrician agreed that he wouldn’t need any further intervention! I am so thankful that I found Dr. Alex!

I never knew how much I needed help until I became a patient of Valeo Chiropractic. As an Emergency Room nurse, I suffered from back pain, headaches with nausea, depression, and plantar fasciitis almost on a daily basis. I had accepted my conditions as my new normal since I had lived with it for almost 3 years, although I was miserable. I did not like taking Tylenol, Ibuprofen, and anti-depressants just to feel normal. I was unsure if Valeo could help my conditions, but I figured I couldn't lose anything in trying. Dr. Alex has been a life saver! After being a patient for 6 months I rarely experience headaches and back aches. I'm longer taking anti-depressants and my plantar fasciitis is almost non existent. If I do have an ache, I tell Dr. Alex and she takes care of it before it becomes problematic. While under the care of Dr. Alex, I sustained a fracture to my tibia which led to non-weight bearing and crutches for 6 weeks. I was worried about the pain I would have from the abnormal gait I had, but she kept everything aligned and I was able to recover quickly. I recommend Valeo to anyone who is experiencing physical ailments. I firmly believe Valeo has contributed to my happier, pain free life. Dr Alex and her team are so welcoming and friendly and I enjoy my visits. They make you feel like family, not just a patient and that’s a big deal as a nurse.
READ LANITA’S CHIROPRACTIC STORY
“I came to Valeo Chiropractic in August of last year for some help in relieving some significant back pain that had flared up in addition to my normal stiff/achy tense back. My whole right rib cage was very cranky. I knew that this would help and really didn’t think much past that. I had gone to chiropractors before and they fixed my problem and off I went. While waiting, I read some testimonials about other things that chiropractic did...specifically in helping with Diabetes. I filed that into the ‘we’ll see about that, my back hurts right now’ file and proceeded to have Dr. Alex work on my very out of alignment back. It didn’t take long before the back pain was gone and I felt much better in my normal stiffness/achy muscles. Yeah! Then, I went for my semi-annual Diabetes check-up. I’ve been stable for the past few years, needing a complex mixture of medicines including insulin to keep my blood sugar in check. I noticed over the course of the fall that my blood sugar stayed lower than it had been. That was good! Then, when I met with my Primary Care provider, she asked me, “What are you doing to lower your long-term blood sugar?”. I thought, “well, not anything really...then I remembered the flyer on the wall about the gentleman who had been able to drastically reduce his medications for Diabetes due to chiropractic treatment. Sure enough, the only thing different in my personal health plan was my regular visits to Valeo! My long-term blood sugar is now only .3% from normal!! It came down over a half point in the 6 months since last tested. My doc is happy, I’m excited and best of all, I’ve reduced my insulin by 50%, with the goal of eliminating it all together. Valeo is a family experience for my husband and I. He has some compression in his back that put him in severe pain last summer. Good solid work with Dr. Alex has him up and walking and nearly pain free! Thumbs up from the Legans for coming to Valeo Chiropractic! Highly recommended!” - Lanita
READ TARYN’S CHIROPRACTIC STORY
After an accident at work, I suffered from heel, knee, and hip pain for over a year. I tried over the counter medication and regular massages to find relief. All my efforts either didn't work or were just a temporary fix. I'm a photographer, and my job requires me to be on my feet and moving around constantly. I began to feel tingling in my limbs, and I knew I needed to find help. My father became a practice member at Valeo Chiropractic, and I could see the difference it had made for him. I decided it was worth a shot even though I was hesitant. After my first visit, I already felt much better. The tingling was beginning to subside. Within a few short months, the pain I had felt with every step was gone for good. My camera and I were ready to take on the world! I am so thankful for the kind and caring staff at Valeo. Visiting Dr. Alex is a highlight to my week because she is more than just a doctor; she is now my friend. My parents and I have become practice members, and I would highly recommend Valeo to anyone! I now know that chiropractic care isn't only to alleviate pain but to also continue wellness for your entire life. Everyone can benefit from Valeo Chiropractic. - Taryn
READ Bailee’S CHIROPRACTIC STORY
“I came to Valeo Chiropractic in hopes of alleviating some pretty severe nerve pain I’d been experiencing, and improving back pain due to poor posture. I had frequent, stabbing, and sometimes unbearable sciatica pain several times a week. I didn’t expect to have such a friendly experience going into Valeo, but that is exactly what I got from every staff member there! Since my very first adjustment, I have experienced sciatica pain only two different times and the level and type of pain was much more tolerable. Nearly six months in, I am proud to say I experience ZERO sciatica pain these days. Regarding the pain from my posture, I am now able to do daily tasks and beyond, without experiencing extreme back pain. As a nursing student, I am so thankful for my weekly adjustments and I can’t imagine what a 12 hour clinical would feel like if I hadn’t been under Dr. Alex’s chiropractic care. I would recommend Valeo Chiropractic 110%!” - Bailee

“As a 63-year-old patient of Chiropractic for over 40 years, I am blessed to have found Valeo Chiropractic! Dr. Alex is the most effective Chiropractic Practitioner I have experienced. I have been treated by 9 previous chiropractors that have kept me at my status quo, which wasn’t very good, but did not really improve my health. Dr. Alex is strong with a gentle touch, purposed, planned and precise in each adjustment and has definitely improved my pain level, flexibility and mobility.
As a result of multiple sports injuries, a motorcycle accident, auto accidents, stunts, and a 17-foot fall in the construction industry, I developed spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, arthritis, loss of mobility, and weakness. I’ve had 3 cervical spine surgeries. Despite treatment by the other Chiropractors over the years, I have been losing flexibility, mobility and strength. I also developed neuropathy in my hands, legs, and feet.
My problems are severe, but Dr. Alex has made a difference in the trajectory of my health, which has also adjusted my health outlook. My flexibility and mobility have increased significantly with pain decreasing. I noticed significant improvement by the 3rd month and with my improved attitude I was able to take a more comprehensive approach to my health. Enabled to do light exercise and committing to a low carb diet, I have lost 25 lbs., cut my blood pressure meds from 3 to 1, cut my pain meds in half, and lowered my A1C from 7.3 to 5.3! I quit the Metformin!
It has been about 9 months under Dr. Alex’s care and I continue to see improvement. I believe my health has improved 70%, overall. I was skeptical of the need for a yearlong plan, as I had never seen any significant improvement with past Chiropractors, just temporary relief. However, Dr. Alex was emphatic of the necessity for a year-long plan to accomplish a goal of sustained improvement. I am thankful for that…she was right.
I highly recommend and trust Valeo Chiropractic for everyone with spinal disorders/pain, or loss of flexibility, mobility and strength. The staff is friendly, cooperative, honest with the insurance billings (always giving me refunds with insurance reimbursements), and the treatments and treatment plan are effective. They also have a cool Hi Tech machine that measures changes along the spine for electrical activity and thermal graphing. It’s very encouraging to physically see graphing of changes to your spine through the course of treatment.” - Dan

“I am 81-years old and this is remarkable. Thank you Dr Alex for your excellent care, and caring for me. I couldn’t have done it without you! I am so grateful for you and your expertise.” - Denise
Denise came to us for unbearable low back pain, hip pain and vertigo. When we met Denise, she was using a walker and unable to stand up straight or walk for long distances. Fast forward a few months being under corrective chiropractic care, she no longer uses her walker and can grocery shop without using an electric shopping cart. Don’t let her age fool you, she wants everyone to know she can now hold a plank.
READ REBECCA’S CHIROPRACTIC STORY
“After 11 years of pain, sleepless nights and weight gain, I was very skeptical of Valeo because nothing had worked. From injections in my back every 3 months to therapy, nothing helped, I couldn’t find anyone who could. My issues with migraines, low back pain and stress are all gone, or almost gone, thanks to Valeo Chiropractic. My pain level used to be at a 10, and I had to take Vicodin, Percocet, and Tylenol to get it under control. Now, I don’t take any of those, and my pain level is down to a 4! I’ve been at Valeo for almost 3 months and I feel 50% better than when I started. That might not be a lot to most people, but to me, it means SO MUCH. I am now back at the gym and have not had any migraines. I am now a believer of chiropractic and I will continue with chiropractic care until I am back to 100%. I would DEFINITELY recommend Valeo Chiropractic to everyone.” - Rebecca
