She said they found opiates in my last urine sample. Really? I didn't do drugs before, then, or after. NEVER. Then when I went to her for a follow-up, she had a waiting room full of patients. I waited at least 2 hours before going into a room and had another long wait. When she FINALLY came in, she said she remembered me from having the drugs in my system. That's the very last time I saw her. Hope she rots in hell.

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!

Renee, as a registered dietician and nutritionist, is so knowledgable about the human body and it's correlation to dietary needs as well as the psychological correlation to food, dieting, well-being, etc - which, aside from the actual dietetic aspect of the plan, are such crucial pieces when trying to figure out the best plan 'for you'. She not only has the expertise mentioned above, but most importantly (IMO) is compassionate, nonjudgemental, caring, and really wants to see you succeed.

I met with GCW initially after an instagrammer I follow recommended them (shoutout @froyotofitness)…read more. I came back from Mexico in December with a bug, hives , numbness , body aches , and 10lb weight gain , and $4000 later of MRI, colonoscopy , endoscopy , etc doctors (literally 5 specialties) still couldn't figure it out . Now it was May, with hardly any resolution and I saw this come up on my Instagram feed. This was my "last resort" . I will admit I am a cynic when it comes to a lot of things or holistic "trends" - but I figured this was worth a try . Fast forward to now- I had my initial consultation and they suggested to do a full workup of blood work , hormone tests and stool analysis. After doing that I had to wait a month for my follow up, which was today. The results showed a lot of information I was unaware of, and after meeting with Dr. P and Faith I'm hopeful I will start to feel better once the vitamins and food plan are implemented. Dr P was extremely thorough and even addressed my birth control with me which was nice to combine that aspect with the resI'm a pretty healthy person (truly probably don't have more than 15 lbs to lose) and have been to a nutritionist before, and have been told to really alter my entire lifestyle in order to lose weight. I was really impressed with faiths willingness to listen (ie: I don't like / have time for a smoothie every morning before work, sos he changed up my meal plan on the spot ) and literally said to me "I'm not trying to tell you to not drink wine or eat out because I would be a hypocrite ". She also isn't super into calorie counting which is a nice thing to hear (I've done it many times before - it works for sure, just can get exhausting to maintain 100% of the time). She made me feel like small tweaks in my diet and focusing on specific foods as opposed to restricting things- something that made me much more comfortable and less anxious about starting- and more confident about sticking to this until I figure out what foods affect me in what way . I will post an update in a month or so with some results - but so far I can say although not really covered by insurance , it's been worth it. I wish I would have started here as opposed to $4000 of neurology/rheumatology/ gastro appointments but you live and you learn :) * update 7 weeks later and I feel like such a better person. I've lost 6 lbs and feel way less bloated than I ever have. I am going back in a week or two to get re tested, but as of now I feel amazing . Couldn't be happier with choosing to come here *

Mental health counselling…read more I had a not so good experience with this company last year. I really liked the counselor a lot. I asked her to read a story that I had written about mostly my life from 2021 to 2024. I thought it would help explain the way I communicate to certain people. I don't think she read it. So, I was talking about an email I sent to somebody, and all of a sudden, she became very judgmental to the point that I ended the session and never went back. I was trying to get away from being judged without knowledge of what might have made my email a little stronger than it needed to be. In plain English, I was really tired of being wrong all of the time. I filed for a divorce after 47 1/2 years of marriage partly because of that. Fast forward, a couple of weeks ago. I decided to try to do therapy at this company once more, because I had been going through a very difficult time in my life since late December. The intake form was clearly designed for physical therapy, and that was pretty frustrating. For instance, it asked me what part of my body needed physical therapy. It would not let me advance to the next page until I finally check the "head" box. Well, I finally agreed to a therapist, and a time. When I first talked to the therapist, I tried to explain what had happened last year. I pretty much begged her to please read my "story". I offered for her to read it on my time. She was having no part of it. I explained to her that I have finally healed with a lot of what was in that story, and I saw no reason for me to relive it. Some of it was very dark, and it took an awful lot of work to get past it. I won't elaborate in this, but suffice it to say, it was the darkest days of my 74 years. I knew it had happened but had absolutely no desire to revisit it. Well, we did it the way she demanded, and it affected me just the way I thought that it might. I emailed her how it made me feel, and I received a "canned email" back telling me that if I was having psychological issues call 988, and if I was having medical issues call 911. Gee thanks! Fast forward to yesterday (Monday April 20) I had made an appointment for 1PM Monday, and I simply got confused about it, and thought it was at 2PM like most all my appointments are due to my having trouble sleeping. I was sent two emails between 1PM and 1:20 PM, although I was nowhere my computer. I admitted it was my "bad". But after thinking about i was wondering why, that in that 20 minutes she couldn't have called the office and have them check up on me. I very much believe in the golden rule, and I can say without any reservation, that is what I would have done. I would have done that with anybody, not just a 75 year old man with very limited mobility. I am beginning to understand now why the about the only thing this country leads in now, is record debt, and minimal common sense.
