Dr. Art is phenomenal - he quickly, accurately diagnosed underlying cause of my shoulder pain, explained it and then prescribed a relatively simple PT cure - stretching & progressive strengthening exercises. It has produced amazing results - my shoulder pain is virtually gone and as an added bonus my upper arms look great! Next my wife strained her lower back 2 mos. ago so I brought her with. Dr. Art diagnosed and remedied her back pain. But much more importantly he convinced my wife she might be able to overcome her balance issues (resulting from suffering a stroke 17 yrs ago) & possibly eliminate her reliance on a cane if she undertook a PT exercise program (again stretching & progressive strengthening exercises). In 8 weeks she's made great progress so we're very optimistic! Finally Dr. Art's been considerate & flexible re our stingy insurance provider - since they won't cover our PT sessions we pay Dr. Art directly. He charges us less than the trainer at our health club would charge while delivering exceptional results! We greatly appreciate Dr. Art's help! If you have an issue that could be helped by physical therapy I again highly, highly recommend seeking treatment from Dr. Art!

Dr. Joe is great! I actually went there one time with a friend of mine initially. I thought some…read moreof his methods were a bit "interesting", but after seeing them work almost immediately, I was intrigued and sold on his methods. The Results: After a car accident, I decided to give him a try. I was in pain, had limited motion in my neck, and had frequent headaches. After just ONE treatment, I had less pain, drastically more movement, and significantly less headaches. He had me completely back to normal in two to three visits. I really like that about him. He fixes it quickly and painlessly, and doesn't drain you. I've been to others who want to treat me for months for one issue, and I didn't see results for weeks. Dr. Joe brings it! I have now recommended many there, and they all have the same great results! He has a proven track record. Pricing: Very affordable. You get more than you pay for! The Dr: He is very current and up-to-date with methods. He stays abreast of trends and new methods. He is passionate about what he does, and it shows that he loves his job! The Methods: They are unique, but EXTREMELY effective. I am NOT a fan of the jerking/quick popping/painful approach that many use. He uses a variety of methods. Incredible! He is a miracle worker as far as I'm concerned! Fabulous!

Chiropractic care tends to steer away from scans and conventional medicine. The previous reviewer didn't seem to understand that. He rarely orders x-rays or prescribes medicines. If that is what you are looking for I would suggest going elsewhere. If you are committed to a medicine-free pain solution I would go with Dr. Fouts. He is reasonable priced and an excellent doctor.

Dr Fouts is amazing. I have been seeing him since I was a child. Initially I had basically pigeon…read moretoe. The ortho doctors wanted to break my hips and fix my legs and gait that way. With a lot of patience and care, Dr Fouts was able to slowly adjust my legs and hips to where I did not need to have my bones broken, and to this day my gait is normal and my legs are normal. He took a lot of time and care with a very young child, and never once was I ever scared of him. As an adult, due to a military accident, I have a VERY bad back. Dr Fouts is amazing again. With careful manipulation, he has been able to great help my mobility, decrease my pain levels, and get me back on my feet. The military doctors have not been able to do anything close to what he has done. If you are looking for someone who truly cares about helping people, who practices natural medicine, with no pills, no expensive tests (which usually aren't needed), you should see Dr Fouts. He is life changing.

I just worked in the yard for a couple hours for the first time in 8 weeks and feel no pain!! In…read moreJuly, I completely threw my back out, to the point that I could hardly walk, and it had grown weaker as I did things to push it in the years leading up to this. An MRI told me "flat tire between L3 and 4 and nothing between L4 and 5," (lower lumbar). Spinal surgery (NO), cortisone (NO) or pain meds (NEVER). After my visit to the hospital in May (that offered nothing but about fifty co-pays and a "healthy as can be" in every way diagnosis), I decided to try alternative medicine. Based on a YELP recommendation from the typical "guy," admitting that he didn't think it would help but went to pacify his wife and basically skipped out an hour after his first treatment, I decided to try Alternative Healing Works in Dyer. My journey started 7 weeks ago, and I have waited to write till now because I wanted to be fair in my assessment. For the last seven weeks, I have taken Chinese herbs, gone twice a week for acupuncture and performed acupressure myself, three times per day, according to the practitioner's assessment and instruction. In my first session, he asked if I wanted to relieve my symptoms or--by restoring the flow of energy--allow my body to heal itself. After the medical year I have experienced (I also broke my arm in Feb and had the worst case of vertigo in my life in May), I told him, I want the full Monty. I have followed his advice--all of it--religiously. And I have never felt better. In every way: physically, intellectually and emotionally. I feel like I have freed my spirit. You must take me with a grain, here. If you know me, you know I'm a little wacky (by choice), but my body tells me what it needs and always has (which is why I never get sick). It told me to try acupuncture, and this two-million-year-old practice is pretty miraculous. I knew it would be. One of the good things, too, is that Jason Wilson, M.S.O.M., L.Ac is a practical person who also lets the spirit move him. I have practiced creative visualization and Louise Hay (affirmations) for over 20 years, so I know I'm on the right path. He will answer any question I ask, but for the first time in my life, I simply let go and truly trusted the process. Is it my attitude? Is it ancient herbal and acupuncture techniques that have helped people for thousands of years? Don't know. Don't need to know. I'm just grateful. My body is healing itself on levels I could not have predicted. My skin is great. My headaches are gone. My arthritis is non-existent (I have to struggle to remember how awful I felt), and I am aligned with spirit. It has been what some call "a religious experience." I'm not a spring chicken, but I feel like one. What more can I ask!
