ADD/ADHD Hi, my name is Matthew. When I was three years old, the doctors decided that I should go on RITALIN. It was thought that I might have ADHD. I have been going to Dr. Simpson for over two months, and I feel much better for it. I am not as tired as I was before and I can still concentrate on my school work, and I do not get as frustrated as I use to be. Also I do not have to worry about taking my medicine to school each day. However, I still like to bug my sister!!! I would like to thank Dr. Simpson, and her staff, for giving me the chance, to try this program, and for getting me off Ritalin. - Matthew David is a very active child with A.D.D. (attention deficit disorder) as well as slow delay in speech, language, and motor skills. Since David has been coming here every area of David’s development has increased. His resource teacher says and believes this therapy has done wonders - David’s Mom Allergies/Sinus My allergies have not been near as bad as in past years and I have taken very little medication this season. YEA! - Cindy I started with chiropractic care around the middle of December 1993. I was suffering from sinus problems, stuffy head, always sniffing, and very irate about it. I have had these problems for about 2-3 years, but after going to the chiropractors for a few months, the sinus problems seemed to be diminishing at a rapid rate. It feels good to not worry about always stopping what I am doing to blow my nose every 10 minutes. - Don Asthma Joshua is not 4 years old, he began having asthma problems at about age one. Joshua saw an asthma specialist and frequently took Flovent and Apo-Aalvent. He was hospitalized with difficulty breathing approximately every 6 weeks during the winter months an occasionally during the spring, summer and fall. At the hospital he would be given mask treatment (sometimes two) and then sent home with a prescription for Pediapred. Within 2 months of the onset of his chiropractic treatment Joshua's condition greatly improved and we have just now, completed the winter without one single visit to the M.D. or the hospital. What a wonderful relief. Thank you Dr. Simpson. - Joshua’s Grandma I am asthmatic and since beginning adjustments I have not had to use any of my 4 puffers. - Lee Back Pain I started chiropractic treatment with Dr. Simpson in October 1994. I was suffering lover back pain, I couldn't bend, sit or stand for any length of time. Prior to this, it would happen occasionally but only when I was tired or under stress. I always relied on pain killers and it would go away in a couple of days, this time it didn't. Dr. Simpson was recommended to my by a co-worker. We started with x-rays and adjustments three times a week. As time went on, I progressed to one adjustment a week. I am now on a maintenance program every two weeks, which keeps me "limbered up" and able to keep up with my 15 month old grandson. Regular adjustments has also helped with the arthritis in my hands and various other aches and pains which happen once in awhile. I am sure that if it wasn't for my regular adjustments, I wouldn't be able to do all of the things I am able to do. - Betty When I came to Dr. Simpon's office I had severe mid-back pain. Within the first couple of treatments I felt relief and within the first couple of weeks of treatments the pain was gone altogether and I had regained mobility. It was obviously what I needed I thank Dr. Simpson for her professionalism as well as her treatment. - Josee Bed Wetting My 3 year old instantly gained complete control of his bladder! Before chiropractics he wet the bed 3-4 nights per week and he hasn't had daytime accidents either. My toddler is reaching milestones much more quickly and hasn't had an ear infection since he began his treatment. He used to get them once a month. - Robin Alex has only had on short period of bed wetting since he began getting adjusted. With consistent adjustments. Alex should stay dry and happy - Alex's Mom Bowel/Bladder I was very constipated and now I am regular. Unbelievable. I am so pleased with Dr. Simpson and the way I am progressing, Thank you. - Parin I guess I was looking particularly haggard and sleep deprived when my daughter's grade 1 teacher told me about Dr. Simpson and her chiropractic care for colicky babies. Within days, we noticed a difference in the amount of fussiness and regurgitation Colic We would like to thank Dr. Sandra Simpson and staff. Our youngest daughter, Olivia, was born two weeks premature and delivered by Cesarean section. Our problem had just begun. We observed that Olivia was in constant pain and spasms accompanied with clenching and mostly crying. This was most prevalent at breast feeding time. She developed propulsive diarrhea. We then, upon medical advice, changed the formula (actually twice). Some of the cramping subsided but still Olivia exhibited most of the same symptoms as before. She didn’t sleep well, nor did she feed well, consequently losing weight. One can imagine the stress and anxiety this put on us and our other siblings!! After the fifth medical drug intervention didn’t improve Olivia’s condition i.e. gripe water, Ovol, Glycerin suppositories, sugar in water solution, many warm baths; we even changed the bottle feeding systems to try to eliminate extra gas; we all were in a quandary. We were exhausted and at the “end of our rope”. It was by sheer luck that my wife read an article in the baby magazine about chiropractic intervention in infantile colic. Needless to say, I was a lot apprehensive, with visions of the baby’s bones cracking etc. But , as my wife continued to read the article to me over the telephone and I was just half listening when I heart the words “pulling on the baby at birth”. I asked her to repeat the paragraph and listened this time earnestly. I remembered quite vividly that in the delivery room there was pulling on the baby at the time of delivery. My wife’s Chiropractor was knowledgeable in infantile colic treatment so we all went for an appointment. Dr. Simpson explained what possibly occurred at delivery and suggested that we begin treatment. Well, now is the best part of our little saga! The treatment session was brief and painless. Most of all, the result was almost instantaneous. Olivia was passing gas from both ends of her alimentary tract. We know that is hardly an interesting topic to discuss but after what we went though this was a welcomed reaction. That same evening Olivia fed well and slept “like a baby”. In fact we spent the night checking her because she was so quiet! We followed the regimen of treatment as suggested by Dr. Simpson. The change was remarkable. Olivia put on weigh, has a good sleeping pattern and we all have become ourselves. Once again a very happy family. As a busy pharmacist of 25 years and a father of five children, I consider myself extremely fortunate to see this “drug free” approach to good health. Thank you Dr. Simpson and your most helpful and considerate staff.
Ear Infections With the chiropractic care, Zachary has gone from frequent ear infections and pain, to almost none. –Zachary’s Mom Fibromyalgia A firm believer in the benefits of Chiropractic. I would recommend it to anyone and when meeting anyone with fibromyalgia I offer this as a definite aid to better health!
Headaches I was very skeptical about going to a Chiropractor until I met Dr. Simpson and her staff. Dr. Simpson immediately put me at ease and pinpointed my headaches. I visited Dr. Simpson figuring what did I have to lose – making that appointment was the best thing I have ever done for myself. After a thorough family history and exam, Dr Simpson explained everything she found and every step of the treatment I would receive and just a few weeks later, the frequency of headaches decreased. Today, after only a few months, my headaches have disappeared and I have a feeling of well being I haven’t had in years. Thank you Dr. Simpson. -Joanne I started Chiropractic care about one month ago. I used to have headaches four to five days a week. This was an ongoing problem for years. I was taking far too many Tylenol 2’s and 3’s to relieve the pain. Since I have been receiving Chiropractic care, I have not taken any drugs in the last three weeks. It is such a relief not to take Tylenol. I never thought I’d day it, but Chiropractic care really does work. -Donna Neck Pain I have suffered constant neck pain for the last four years, during that time I had physiotherapy treatments with little success. I was told about Dr. Simpson and attended one of her workshops. I was impressed although I was skeptical. At that time my neck problems were quite acute, but decided to give it a try anyway. After a few treatments I found relief from the pain. Now four months later my neck problems are greatly improved, more than I ever expected. I am grateful to Dr. Simpson for the kindness and concern that she has shown to me as a patient. –Marion
Pregnancy and Childbirth During my second pregnancy, in my 7th month, the baby went into breech position and Dr. Simpson performed the Webster Breech Technique (5 adjustments) and the baby moved back into proper position. I came in for an adjustment the day I went into labour and that evening after 40 minutes of labour, I had my second daughter. –Kalee I started going to Nottinghill Family Wellness Centre because of infertility problems, a sore back and allergies. I had tried to conceive for 5 and ½ years and because I could not get pregnant, I was under a great deal of stress. My allergies and back had bothered my for the same amount of time. I got pregnant after only a month of Chiropractic care. I am sure it made a difference and today I have a beautiful little girl. My back feels better and my allergies are much improved. My newborn daughter also receives regular chiropractic care for colic and general health maintenance. –Jeanne When I first came to Nottinghill Family Wellness Centre I was experiencing lower back pain to the extent that I had some difficulty walking at times. I also learned that the problems I was having with my lower back could have b3een affecting my reproductive organs. This could explain why my husband and I were having difficulty conceiving (over a year and a half). Needless to say, after just three months of intense treatment, I happily announced my pregnancy. I continued to see Dr. Simpson right up until the birth of our second daughter. I did not experience back pain during this pregnancy as I had with my first. Now, my whole family, my two daughters, myself and my husband visit the clinic regularly. We have been very pleased with the treatment we have received from the entire staff at Nottinghill Family Wellness Centre. Thank you. -Karen Shoulder/Arm/Wrist The pain in my shoulder started out as an irritation and the lack of movement, an inconvenience. I couldn’t raise my left are more than 90 degrees from vertical, but if I didn’t try, there was no pain to be concerned with. So for two months I ignored the signs, the pain growing more acute and my shoulder movement reducing to 60 degrees from vertical. From the eighth month mark, I had full extension of my arms at a full radius with absolutely no indication of tightness of the muscle or any pain in my shoulder.
I first sought chiropractic help in early April 1991 for relief of frequent headaches and constant shoulder pain. I was taking Tylenol almost everyday. My exercise program didn’t help the shoulder pain at all. I attributed my problems to stress but got to the point that something had to be done. Thankfully, now my shoulder pain has completely gone and headaches are rare. I wish I had sought this help years ago, but unfortunately I didn’t know that it could help me. We need to spread the word about chiropractic – it’s wonderful! -Susan The greatest benefit I have from chiropractic care is improvement in my carpel tunnel. Most of the time I have no symptoms. When it acts up, two adjustments correct the problem. –Kimberly TMJ/Jaw My jaw problem has improved greatly from before, even with monthly dentistry work being done. –Kevin Wellness Chiropractic treatment has been an important aspect on my journey to improved well-being. Dr. Simpson has been very helpful and takes time to ensure that I understand what and why things are changing as a result of treatment. I live and work in Mississauga and choose to travel the extra distance to attend at the clinic. If that’s not an indicator of satisfaction, I don’t know what is. –Nadia My soccer has improved quite a bit and I feel I have a much better range of movement. I also feel much better and full of energy knowing that my back will not bug me when doing activities. –Adam I still have a ways to go but you can’t deny the positive effects of chiropractic. The freedom to move, play, work without soreness and stiffness is amazing. Suffering is not necessary! -Amber You listen to my concerns. -Sally Before I started coming to Nottinghill Family Wellness Centre, I was in such pain that sleeping hurt. It’s been 6 months under Dr. Simpson’s care and I’m pain free. Bi-weekly adjustments did the trick. Fools suffer…and I’m no fool. -Rob I have tried a number of solutions for my problem. I didn’t know a thing about Chiropractic treatment before I tried it and it has worked. But I would also like to add, what a pleasure my maintenance visits are – little social interludes in my busy schedule where I always leave feeling better than I arrived. Thanks guys. -Anne |
