Living life to the fullest!

Over a year ago I first came into Canberra Chiropractic barely walking. Today I am feeling no back pain and am able to live to the full – thanks to Dr Ben and chiropractic. I sincerely appreciate Dr Ben’s advice, and his refreshing principles on health and responsibility.

He will also “go the extra mile”.  Just two examples – I recently contacted the clinic on behalf of a Sydney-based friend who was overseas at the time and had hurt his back; Dr Ben was on holidays, but rang me at his first available opportunity to provide advice, although there was no gain for him in doing so. Dr Ben also lent me a book, which I notice from the front cover was a valued gift to him from the author – but he was prepared to lend it to me for my benefit.

Tremendous service, friendly advice. I look forward to my next regular monthly visit which, I must add, costs me next to nothing thanks to private health insurance.

Leon

7 month old with reflux

Leon was 7 months old when we took him to Dr Ben with reflux. We  also mentioned  that Leon was very uncomfortable when we put him in crawling position. Dr Ben treated Leon for the reflux and found that his left hip was also out of place.

After the first appointment with Dr Ben, Leon started to crawl and within days, he was very happy crawling all over the house.

It is a big decision for any parent to put their child in the hands of any therapist, but as I was going to Dr Ben for treatment myself, I had every confidence in him and Leon really enjoys the sessions.

Bronte

Struggling at school… Poor reading and concentration

I had been concerned for some time that my daughter, Bronte could not read or spell at an appropriate level for her age. After trying various alternatives, I read about kinesiology and ways of reorganising neural pathways in the brain.

I decided to take Bronte to see Dr. Ben, because he used chiropractic and kinesiology. After seeing him over a couple of months, practicing the exercises Dr. Ben gave her; Bronte began to show improvements in her focusing and concentration and is now achieving an average level in reading for her age. I would recommend Dr. Ben Schutte to anyone who has a child struggling at school.

Chiropractic care for 30 years

I have had care with Canberra Chiropractic Clinic for over 30 years. I have an active life in my retirement and I need to have my back in as good a condition as possible. Regular care means that I don’t have many relapses and that when I do, Dr Ben can get me going again within 2 or 3 visits. But I still come in for check-ups. It’s worth it!

X-rays lead to discovery of prostate cancer

Dr Ben needed to take x-rays of my spine because in the examination it felt like there was wear in the joints. It tuned out that I have a thing called DISH. After looking up his reference books he decided that it was important to get a blood test to rule out diabetes as there is a strong association with DISH and diabetes. Any way I had the blood test…negative for diabetes but positive for prostate cancer. I have had appropriate treatment for the cancer and everything is under control including my back which is why I went to him in the first place. Oh and my spine feels great!

Trudy

Migraines gone too!

I am a dance teacher and came to see Dr Schutte for upper back pain. While taking my history, he found out that I was getting 2 or 3 migraines per month. I had no idea that Ben could fix these as well. So after a few weeks of care my back feels normal and more to my astonishment the migraines are gone! No more pills!

Dr Ben Asks some important questions of interest to Turner residents - Chiropractor Turner Dr Ben Asks...

How come medical doctors don't recommend chiropractic?
That's changing. Years of prejudice and bias are giving way to research showing the benefits of chiropractic care. As more and more Turner folks seek alternatives to drugs and surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to chiropractors.
What does a chiropractic adjustment do?
Chiropractic adjustments give your spine a little "nudge" at the right place, right time and the right direction so your body can use that energy to "right" itself. With a schedule of consistent chiropractic visits, a new, healthier spinal pattern emerges.
