I have lower back pain and sciatica. These conditions are quite common. I went to Orange Chiropractic Center with an open mind seeking relief from my pain. I arrived early every visit yet often felt rushed. I was placed on the spinalator table which feels like a relaxing, gentle massage meant to improve and maintain mobility of the spine. Problem was only once was I allowed to stay on the table long enough for the timer to actually time out and go off.
The services received by Dr. Eileen Whelan did not help my condition. I felt worse after the chiropractic treatments and needed to take Advil for the pain. On my last visit I was presented with a plan made up for me to visit the workout center using their trainer under the Chiropractor's supervision. I am not overweight nor in need of work out machines. I said I was not interested. The attitude changed much like a time share salesperson does as soon as you say "no thanks, it's not for me". When asked why I was not willing to keep coming 2x a week, I tried to explain how I was rushed off the spinalator table but I was interrupted by Dr. Eileen Whelan so I politely stopped talking to listen yet I was not given the chance to respond. I was actually told not to come back again. I said you are overreacting. I got the feeling if I was not overjoyed with her care I was no longer welcome- ever again!
In my opinion this office seems to be Chiropractors that set up their practice with the intention of keeping the clients coming indefinitely. read more
