The entire Schramm Family, Melissa and her husband, Ed, and her children – Edward, Miranda and Brandi – have all received chiropractic care from Dr. Johnson.  “I have a son who plays hockey, two in kung fu, and an active baby, so it’s very important to have someone treating our family who is good with kids.”  Our medical doctor keeps telling me ‘I don’t know what your chiropractor is doing, but keep doing it.’”

Melissa was introduced to chiropractic services at a very young age due to a knee injury playing soccer in 7th grade.  “At that time” she says “my Grandmother took me to a chiropractor to avoid a serious surgery.”  Melissa found Dr. Johnson through her kids’ teacher.  Her husband’s back hurt to the degree that he couldn’t even go to work.  Their current chiropractor couldn’t manage his physical size easily.   “Dr. Johnson’s sports background and working with large athletes made a big difference to my husband’s comfort and successful treatments.”

Melissa herself has been in several car accidents and had final given up the idea of living free of pain around her neck and shoulders.  “I couldn’t raise my hands above my head.  I couldn’t even brush my hair without pinching a nerve.”  When she felt the beginning of pain, she would limit herself to avoid it.  She gave up sports because of the risk of injury.  The risk of pain wasn’t worth it.

After working with Dr. Johnson, Melissa reports that she doesn’t even think about pain any more.  “I’ve gotten back to where I feel human again after living with intermittent pain for over 16 years.  Even going to other chiropractors never got me the relief I feel now.”

“I highly recommend Dr. Johnson because he’s open and he listens.  He is thorough and checks beyond the immediate problem for solutions.”  Dr. Johnson can adjust anything, not just my back.  One of the messages I send to friends and family is that you don’t have to get hurt to get checked out.  Getting checked out ahead of time avoids misaligning the spine even more.”
