AMAZING!

I had been suffering with mild to medium degenerative osteoarthritis for about a year when I first came to see Dr. Peterson in October 2009. The Rheumatologist who diagnosed me said there was no treatment for this condition.

Renae Drevs told me of Dr. Pete’s Rheumatoid Arthritis, so I decided to come see him. Since seeing him I have more pain-free days with my hands now.

I have less aching and sleep better. I just feel better overall.

I also have no more heartburn. I have been without Nexium now for some time now. When I have had a flare up, Dr. Pete’s adjustments take it away.

Last year I took sinus medications all the time. Now with chiropractic care, I have not needed any pills!

The activator is pain-free, it is the most gentle way to receive adjustments. It seems as though you can receive more adjustments with the activator and it is so gentle.

The most important part I would recommend is that Dr. Pete knows how to use the activator and he listens to his patients. I would not go to just anyone who uses an activator. I have heard there is someone in Peshtigo that uses the activator.

I came to Dr. Pete because of his story of being cured of his rheumatoid arthritis. When I started coming to his office, I was amazed to meet so many people from Marinette, Abrams, Green Bay, etc., but now I understand why.

A Happier, Healthier Me

I started coming to Dr. Peterson's in September of 2008. I had a lot of neck pain and stiffness. This all began in March of 2007. I have suffered from this very severe pain for 1 ½ years!

I went to two different physical therapists, chiropractor, aqua therapist, shots in my neck and surgery! The surgery stopped the shooting pains and headaches, but after that nobody could budge the pain or give me any relief of the stiffness in my neck.

Then Troy Servatius a very good friend of mine referred me to this office. Since being adjusted for only about two months the ability to move my neck has greatly improved my flexibility is great! Also, amazingly enough, my acid reflux has gone away. My pain is being relieved!

Chiropractic care has affected my overall health and wellness by making me aware of how to take better care of my body and health. It's given me hope at a time that I was really starting to lose hope.

The Activator is very harmless and gentle. It's not like traditional chiropractic, the bending, twisting, and cracking. I have recommended the activator to other people because no matter your age, weight, health or injury it is very harmless and body friendly.

Great Pain Relief!

I first came to Dr. Petersons in October of 2008. I was suffering from headaches. I have had headaches all my life. There were times the pain was so bad I felt sick to my stomach and needed to be in a quiet dark place. I have also suffered from acid reflux for the last ten years.

I was treated before by my primary care physician and once by a different chiropractor. I have taken many different meds over the years but in the past few years nothing seemed to alleviate the pain. My primary care physician had me keep a journal and started to change up my birth control brand. The other chiropractic experience was terrible. I didn’t like being twisted and cracked. Then Harley Granius referred me to this office.

To my surprise I started feeling better almost immediately. My headaches were fewer and less intense. I am no longer dependant on prescription and over the counter drugs that I used to take on a daily basis. I am no longer taking the medicine for the acid reflux that the doctors told me I would need to take for the rest of my life! I am also sleeping better now than I have in years.

I would describe the Activator as gentle in a warm welcoming atmosphere. I like best that it’s not like chiropractors I have seen in the past that crack me. I would recommend the instrument to someone else because of the results that I have seen. It has been life changing for me.

Gentle and Pain Free Technique

I first started coming to this office in November of 2007. I had low back pain, IBS, Colitis, and headaches. I have had these conditions for years. There was one time when I was hospitalized for the Colitis in July of 2006. I was on medication for the flare ups, and they told me I would have to be on it for the rest of my life!

I was going to another chiropractor for my lower back, but he never explained to me that my body could heal itself with chiropractic care. This chiropractor was helping with my lower back pain, but I still had the IBS and Colitis symptoms.

My friend Marilyn Reichwald asked me if I wanted to come to the weight loss class with her. That is how I got introduced to Peterson Chiropractic. I have always been interested in things that would help improve my health.

Since coming to Doctor Pete I have not had any stomach problems. I have also not taken any medication for my Colitis! I have been drinking the Dream Protein and Red Alert and I can say that I have not slept this good in years!

I don't know how you couldn't feel better going to Peterson Chiropractic. The office has such a positive atmosphere, and they all want to make sure you are feeling better. I look forward to my appointments and will continue with chiropractic care for the rest of my life!

The Activator is very gentle and pain free. It is the only way I will be adjusted. I would recommend the Activator to someone else because you don't have to worry about if it is going to hurt, because it won’t.

Chiropractic is Great for Kids

In January of 2000 we were totally discouraged. Our children, ages 4, 3, and 1 ½ had been sick almost continuously since the previous September. They were having problems with upper respiratory symptoms, and our daughter had just had a urinary tract infection following a bout with the "flu." Our 3-year-old son had been very ill, and had almost been hospitalized due to dehydration. Our 1 ½ year-old son was constantly congested with swollen glands. All of the children had been on various medications to try to alleviate some of their symptoms. None of these drugs had any positive lasting effects, nor healing qualities, and I was concerned about putting harmful substances into their young bodies.

We brought all of them to Dr. Pete, and within a few visits started seeing improvement. Our 4 and 3¬year-olds improved so quickly it was like they were different children. Our 1 ½ year-old took a little longer, but after time he lost his "pale, sick look," and took on a very healthy glow. Their energy levels increased and they were back to being happy, healthy children!

Since coming to Dr. Pete none of them have been to a medical doctor! This year they have each had a cold, which resolved quickly without incident. Such a contrast from last year!!

All of our children love coming to see Dr. Pete. He is such a positive influence in their lives and makes each one of them feel so special. He treats each of them with respect and has so much patience with them as they eagerly share their day with him when it’s their turn to be adjusted. He’s really great with children!

Not only do our children love Dr. Pete, but they enjoy coming to the office for their adjustments. It's like an adventure for them. Everyone is so kind, and takes a special interest in them. It's like going to a favorite Aunt and Uncle's for a visit. When you're at Dr. Pete's it's like being with family.

In November we added a new member to our crew. He got his first adjustment when he was 4 days old. He was having problems with swollen, mattery eyes and eating problems. With regular adjustments these are resolving, and he is a peaceful, contented little one. Dr. Pete is so gentle with him, and he has even slept through some of his adjustments! I'm grateful to know about chiropractic so I don’t have to turn to drugs to try to stop unwanted symptoms in my children.

I highly recommend Dr, Pete to anyone who is having health problems, or wants to avoid having them, I trust him with myself, and my most precious treasures, my children. He has truly given us a new lease on life, and we are the healthier for it.

Thanks, Dr. Pete, we appreciate you more than words can say!!

No More Sleepless Nights!

I have been a patient of Dr. Pete's since the clinic opened.

In the winter of 1996, I noticed a severe pain in my neck, probably due to a fall on the ice.

A week or two after the fall, I felt a sore spot in my neck, which kept getting worse.

The pain caused a lot of sleepless nights. I also had numbness in the fingers and thumb of my left hand.

Dr. Pete found a pinched nerve, which was the cause of the problem.

After about two months, the pain and numbness were gone and have not come back.

I still come periodically for adjustments to maintain my health. I do not go to medical doctors because chiropractic care has taken care of my health concerns.

Effective Technique

On my first visit to Dr. Peterson's office I was in excruciating pain in both my right side and left side extremities. I had been taking a lot of pain-killing medication which was supplemented with pain shots. I was so desperate because the unbearable, intermittent pain was, at best, made bearable with pain medication for short, intermittent periods.

My right side had been bothering me intermittently since around 1989, but a few months ago, my left side started acting up. At times, I couldn't do anything at all except cry and pray that the pain would go away. Over the last 15 years, I have seen several different neurologists and chiropractors for my condition but, until I saw Dr. Pete, my pain only got progressively worse.

Neurologists attributed my pain to a combination of my sarcoid and arthritis and treated me with pain medication. Other chiropractors only manipulated my body which provided me with temporary relief, but Dr. Pete has actually moved my bones successfully into their proper place by using the activator technique, which is a painless, gentle, low-force adjustment.

While I was waiting for another appointment with a different neurologist, a friend who had a numb leg before getting treatment from Dr. Pete told us about the new activator technique used by the doctor. He highly recommended Dr. Pete because he had regained full feeling of his leg in a very short time.

My prayers and the prayers of my family and friends were answered starting with the first adjustment. I have been relatively pain-free since I started seeing Dr. Pete. I am so delighted with Dr. Pete's treatment because it works. As a result, I want to tell everyone about the activator chiropractic technique.

My family and friends have marveled at the incredible results which my daughter, who has TMJ, and I have experienced under Dr. Pete's care.

My sister, Diamantina, who lives in Manhasset, New York, was so impressed that she told her neighbor, Dolores, about Dr. Pete. Dolores has been suffering for many years with very similar symptoms. As a result, my sister and her neighbor flew from New York City on August 25, 2004, just to seek treatment from Dr. Pete. The quality of life, like better sleep, being able to move without pain, or just being able to get dressed without help, has dramatically improved. My daughter has also experienced a lot of relief from back and neck pain. I now wish and pray my brain would catch up with my body's recovery!
