Before seeing Dusty my neck and back were in terrible shape (phase 3) from lifting and heavy activity! I visited Dusty 3 times a week for the 1st year and incredible improvement was noted! I slept better, had less neck and headaches, and had better flexibility. Also, the Cataplex-B product has given me extra energy during the day, and the Calm Plus Calcium has helped me sleep and relax. Dusty and his staff are very personal and caring people, and I have no idea what I would have done w/out them! Finally, Dusty donated quite a bit of chairs, tables, wood and a refrigerator for our church. Thanks so much for changing my life towards the better, Dusty and staff! – K.H.
I worked at a glass factory for 40 years and stood on cement floors. For 35 years I have had pain in my feet, especially the right foot. I had seen other doctors over the years and tried several remedies for the pain, including orthotics for my shoes, but nothing ever helped much. Walking for two or three blocks was difficult and painful!
I filled out a survey that Dr. Mattingly was conducting for Pressure Point Therapy. I began treatment, which has included Pressure Point Therapy, electric muscle stimulation and chiropractic adjustments, and I have had the best results. I now can enjoy walking and I am looking forward to doing some traveling. I started seeing Dr. Mattingly three times a week at first and then less frequently as I began to improve. Now I am on a maintenance program and see him just once a month, or whenever I feel a need to see him more often.
After seeing the success that I has having with treatment, my husband also decided to start chiropractic care for his neck, shoulders and lower back. We have both been pleased with the good results that we have experienced.

I came to see Dr. Mattingly with pain and numbness due to a work related injury which caused pain in my shoulder and numbness starting from my ring and pinky fingers running all the way up through my arm, shoulder, and neck. I suffered for one month before coming to Dr. Mattingly. I had seen my general practitioner and had a nerve test done. They wanted to perform surgery to remove this pinched nerve. I was taking muscle relaxers; I took one kind for six days and another kind for one month. I was also taking an abundance of Tylenol, switching to Tylenol-3 and eventually Ibuprofen. The pain was so bad that I’d work my scheduled eight hour shift and then come home and lay down on the couch and the kids would do my household chores for me. I would sleep and cry a lot. It hurt just to sit. I had to give up my hobbies that I enjoyed doing like bowling, crocheting and needlepoint.
After just three weeks of adjustments and ultra-sound, the numbness went out of my ring finger and arm. The pain had lessened so much that I quit taking the muscle relaxers and was taking less Tylenol and Ibuprofen. After six weeks of adjustments on my wrist and elbow, my wrist became more flexible. Within one month of adjustments on my neck I had more range of motion. When the pain had lessened I became a happier person, easier to get along with, and could do my daily activities and hobbies. I believe one hundred percent in chiropractic care, because it helped me feel better, function better at work and I didn’t have to have surgery! I even referred my daughter to Dr. Mattingly after she was involved in a car accident. I’d recommend chiropractic care for everyone.

Two years ago Dr. Mattingly treated my left shoulder and fixed the pain I was experiencing at that time. I am a swimmer and will swim for at least 1 hour at a time; so I over use my shoulders sometimes. This has caused a bone spur. I have tried therapy but it doesn’t seem to work. After I stop therapy the pain comes right back. Since Doc got me out of pain before, I decided to come to him when my right shoulder began to hurt. The adjustments have improved my movement a lot since I started coming and I am out of pain.

I had parked my car and was gathering some materials when another vehicle landed on the hood of my car!! I had already released my seat belt, so was thrown up to the roof of my car and my neck was seriously injured. The next morning I could not move my neck. I had to move my whole body to turn my neck. I was stiff and sore and in a lot of pain.
I called Mattingly Chiropractic and the receptionist worked me into the schedule right away. Dr. Mattingly examined me and took X-rays. He began EMS (electronic muscle stimulation) and chiropractic adjustments three times a week for the first few weeks. Then as I improved he reduced the frequency of the visits. Soon my mobility was restored and most of the pain associated with the injury was gone.
I am so glad that I knew of Dr. Mattingly. My husband has been a patient of Doc’s for a year or so, and has had great results. I am doing very well now. I have full mobility of my neck and very minor pain that actually depends on certain activities such as lifting or driving. I love Dr. Mattingly’s staff. They are friendly and caring. I would not hesitate to recommend chiropractic care to my friends and family. As a matter of fact, I did refer my daughter to him and she has had great results for relief from her headaches. Thanks for the relief, Dr. Mattingly!

When I walked in around the end of May my right shoulder was in such pain that hardly any movement would cause extreme pain. After about 2 months of pressure point therapy and adjustments the pain is gone and my flexibility is almost back to normal. With the pain that intense, the thought of surgery entered my mind. So to say that I am thrilled with the results is an understatement. Thanks to the staff and especially Dusty.

It’s hard to believe – I am actually able to rotate my neck, drive and sit at the computer. Aging should not be a miserable journey and thanks to Mattingly Chiropractic I am on an adventure! Thank you!

I came in with severe shoulder, neck and back pain. I hadn't been to a chiropractor in about six years. I was in serious need. I had cancer surgery in 2004 on my neck and it was extremely tight! The pains in my neck, shoulder and back really restricted my movements. I had one pressure point therapy session and I feel wonderful. I will be continuing with the therapy to keep those muscles relaxed and range of motion better. Thanks, Dr. Mattingly!
