I am 65 years old. I have had arthritis issues for many years. I have had two knee and two hip replacements because of severe degeneration of my joints. After my last knee replacement, I was convinced that my problems were solved. However, I then experienced a terrible, chronic pain in my lower back. The left side of my body was so weak that I had to walk with a cane. I was unable to be on my feet for more than 15 minutes without finding a chair and sitting down. I couldn’t shop in stores that didn’t have carts that I could use for support. I had to walk up and down stairs holding on to railings for dear life and taking them one foot at a time. I visited an orthopedist and a rheumatologist. Their solution to the problem was to put me on more drugs.
One day this past August, as I was sitting at the traffic light beside Tressler Chiropractic office, something on his sign drew me in for an evaluation. Now, six months later, I am free of the terrible back pain, and am able to climb stairs in a normal fashion. In addition, I have made some nutritional adjustments which are helping me have more energy and to lose weight. Finally, through the help of a personal trainer, I am exercising at least three days a week and have developed considerable strength. But one of the things I am really thrilled about is that when I am driving and have to change lanes in traffic, I can actually turn my head enough that I can do so easily and safely. (I used to have to shift my entire body so that I could see out of the back of the car., and I’ve had many really close calls as a result).
I am grateful to God for nudging me into making the stop at Tressler Chiropractic, and I am grateful to Dr. Tressler and his staff for their help and expertise and for their passion regarding restoring people to good health. I find myself wanting to say to everyone who "complains" to me about health issue, "Have you considered seeing a chiropractor?"

I had an eye problem (amblyopia). At age 8 the eye doctor wasn’t very hopeful that there could be change by patching my good eye. My parents brought me here. The Chiropractor said the subluxation in my neck could very well be part of the problem.
After 6 months my 20/200 vision in my right eye is NOW 20/25 and NO MORE PATCH! We believe the patch, Chiropractic care and prayer has helped. I AM HAPPY!!

Sydney Tressler
Having five children, I have had many experiences with health related issues to deal with, understand and overcome. One of the most interesting of all my stories is when my fourth daughter, Sydney, was born. Sydney, now approaching 4 years old, was born at home with our midwife with no complications. But within hours after birth we noticed her right eye was drawing towards the middle appearing cross-eyed.
I had already checked her for subluxation minutes after birth and all appeared well. So I began investigating other areas to explain why her eye was still crossed. I found her right cranial bones had shifted out of position (due to the birth process) and were fixated. Newborns cranial bones are movable to allow the cranium to go through the birth canal easier. There are soft spots, the sutures, that allow this to happen. I gently began to adjust (slide) the cranial bone by very gently stroking this locked cranial bone to the right position, and "BAM", her eye sprung back like it was attached to a rubber band. I continued this for eight straight days, each day it kept improving. After eight days it was fixed. I have never seen anything this traumatic in a child in all my years of practice. Birth trauma can occur in many ways and all children need to be examined before permanent subluxation and damage occurs.
Sydney actually had strabismus, not a lazy eye. Strabismus is when an eye is weak and crosses to the middle. When an eye is crossed, the child gets a different picture from each eye. The child’s brain blocks out the picture from the weaker eye. If the eye is not fixed when a child is young (under six is the critical stage), the child’s brain will always ignore the pictures from the weak eye! The first few years of life are critical for proper neurological development which develops a child mentally, physically and behaviorally.
So a crossed-eye could lead to developmental weakness and less than 100% development of language, hand/eye coordination, mental confusion and just less than their God-given potential. Having learned this information, I knew it was crucial for Sydney to have "normal" eyes. What was in her future? An eye patch, hours of therapy, special glasses or even surgery? All of these may have to be considered, but Thank God, her eye returned to normal. We work with one of the top specialists in the area, Dr. Hans Lessman, who with the latest technology helps restore these eye problems naturally without surgery. His work is magnificent and his results are even better. If you have a child with a weak or cross-eye, or even know someone, have a proper chiropractic exam immediately and visit Dr. Lessman to have this problem resolved now before it becomes too late.
Darnell
Before chiropractic adjustments I had a very painful neck and limited mobility on my right side. I had to calculate every movement I made, even canceling my daily routines. Including chiropractic care into my weekly routine has vastly improved my quality of life beyond belief. I have lost weight, reduced the amount on medications I need, and have less visits to my MD.

Severe Headaches – I began to have headaches and my Dr. was concerned because I was on a blood thinner so I was sent for a C-scan and it was negative. 2 weeks later they were worse, unbearable, a 2nd C-scan = negative. Pain meds were prescribed that I didn’t want. The FIRST day of Chiropractic Care gave relief from the Excruciating headache! X-rays were taken and the problem was found. I personally recommend Tressler Chiropractic. I guarantee that you will feel better, sleep better and perform better in what ever you do. By the Grace of God, he has done wonderful things for me, and I thank God for him.
Mark
I’ve been going to chiropractors, on and off, for 20 years. I really only went when I was in extreme discomfort, trying just to live with the pain. Within only a few weeks of regular chiropractic adjustments, I noticed I was able to breathe more deeply than ever before. After only 3 months of regular care I have less sickness, more energy and all over better health.
Lisa
I have been under chiropractic care for about 1 1/2 years. I have had major changes in my life since starting care. I use to suffer with spring time allergies and I always took some over the counter drugs. Now my sinuses don’t bother me as much and I don’t need the use of any drugs. I also have more energy and fewer complications. I’ve told many people about chiropractic care and how it can help, I’m living proof.
Joe
I suffered from allergies my whole life, shots as a child and OTC meds as an adult. I was born with clubfeet that were surgically repaired at age 5. Shin splints "were to be expected" my entire life. Traveling and computer left me with a chronic sore neck, limited motion and headaches. My first Chiropractic adjustment eliminated this. My lifetime of meds for allergies has ceased and NO SHIN SPLINTS!!

My Testimony
My association with Dr. Tressler began about one month ago when I sought his help for pain in my upper shoulders and increased stiffness in my neck. After my exam, I was shown how my neck problem, if not corrected could escalate into other health issues involving blood pressure, heart and lungs. Since I was already taking prescription medications to control my high blood pressure, I felt that I was on the road to more serious health concerns. I never really associated my lifelong neck issues with my hypertension.
When my primary care physician told me that if I was able to lose some weight, I might be able to bring my blood pressure down to a normal level and that one day I may possibly no longer need the blood pressure medications I was thrilled. However, any weight loss I experienced seemed to have little effect on my blood pressure. Even though I did not like taking the medications and experiencing the side effects, they did seem to keep my blood pressure within the normal range. Years passed and I felt that my dream of ever living healthy and medication free would never be realized.
As I began my treatment with Dr. Tressler, it was my hope that the pain in my neck and shoulders would decrease. I never thought much about the effects on my hypertension. After the first visit, I felt mobility in my neck and relief in my shoulders far beyond my expectations. I was delighted to see that I could back my car out of a parking space without turning my entire body to check for traffic!
Today I had a scheduled physical with my primary care physician and was informed that my blood pressure was a shocking 96/60! Although my weight was lower by 6 pounds, I have never noticed such a drop in my blood pressure when I lost weight before. I can only conclude that my treatments with Dr. Tressler have had a very positive effect on my hypertension as well as my neck and shoulders.
I must add that after years of needless suffering with neck and shoulder pain as well as high blood pressure, I never really expected to see results so quickly. In the brief time I have been under treatment with Dr. Tressler, I truthfully feel so much better. Finally, I have to thank Dr. Tressler, Robin, Sue and Wendy for their friendly encouragement and look forward to the fulfillment of my dream of better health!
