for me.

Results at the beginning I was kind of having
doubts because it was like 2-3 months and I was going ”Geez is this
ever going to get turned around” but it finally getting it turned
around and now I have been going almost a year and sometimes I feel
like even though I come once a week because I really know I need it
I sometimes feel like I don’t even need to come but I do just to
keep it going because otherwise I would be back where I was
originally before I came in here just coming when it was hurting
and then it would take a while to get everything back into
place.

Describe the Condition for Which You
Consulted Your Chiropractor, Including:

headaches on a regular basis. The headaches were severe.
Describe Previous Treatment and
Results:
Just taking over the counter Tylenol
Tell What Drugs And/or Medication You
Were Taking, If Any, and If You Feared Addiction:
I felt I was having to take way too much of it, I
don’t think I realized how much damage it could cause but I was
concerned because I was taking so much of it and so often
What Led to Your Decision to Try
Chiropractic?
2 things: 1. My husband got adjusted and I
noticed what a difference it made for him. And then secondly when I
was pregnant with our oldest son my sciatica nerve was pinched and
when I got adjusted for that I realized what a difference it could
make
Had You Been to a Chiropractor
Previously?
No
Did You Have Any Doubts That
Chiropractic Would Help You?
It has been so many years now I don’t remember; I
guess because Dan got adjusted I didn’t think so, I thought it
would make a difference
What Recommendations Were Made by the
Chiropractor?
I guess when I saw the x-rays and then I realized
just how bad my back was I was really shocked and the damaged that
I had done with it over the years by not having it adjusted was a
real shocked and that I knew that he couldn’t make it completely go
away but he makes it much more comfortable to live with
Describe Your Results, Including Time
Involved:
It really has been amazing because I went from
probably a big bottle of Tylenol a month to possibly one big bottle
in 2 years so it really made a difference my headaches went away I
used to have an catch when I breathed in my ribs and it wasn’t
until I got adjusted I realized it was a rib out and so that’s all
gone away I am much more comfortable walking now than I used to be
so it has made a big difference.
Is Anyone Else in Your Family a
Chiropractic Patient? If So, for What Conditions?
All of us are, all 4 of us

off within I think, Rene was just a couple of months old not even 2

Had You Been to a Chiropractor
Previously?
Yes
Did You Have Any Doubts That
Chiropractic Would Help You?
I knew chiropractic would help
What Were Your First Impressions of
Chiropractic, this Office and the Doctor?
(Laugh) he is appropriate he is professional, he
has very good people skills he makes the patient relax and
comfortable he is a little warped personally (Laugh) but I mean you

terrific too always appropriate, professional very helpful and he
couldn’t be as good as he is if he didn’t have good support
staff.

Is Anyone Else in Your Family a
Chiropractic Patient? If So, for What Conditions?
My brother
How Has Chiropractic Helped
Them?
It has helped him out with a back that has a I
think the whole vertebrae that is about twice the size that it
should be it’s elongated his whole body. Dr. Bell told him the
first time that he did the evaluation on him that he had the
problem with the vertebrae and he asked him, “Is your mother fuss
at you all your life for sitting on your spine “and he said “Yes
how did you know” because that is the only way that you can
possibly sit and be comfortable. And Jerry told him that, that was
the only way that he could sit without his legs going numb. This
vertebrae is like this wide from top to bottom he got a rather
interesting looking x-ray if you ever see it
What Would You Recommend to Others Who
Are Sick, Suffering or in Pain?
I have and I do
How Many Others Have You Told about
Chiropractic?
Any body that will listen seriously
How Do You Feel about Chiropractic, Now
That You Have Enjoyed its Benefits?
I think it is differently one of the best things
that you can do for your health the medical doctor has his
limitation just like chiropractic has its limitation it can’t take
care of everything that is possibly wrong with you but it can take
care of just about everything that is wrong with you. (She is a
register nurse with many years of experience)
Gulia G.
Describe the Condition for Which You
Consulted Your Chiropractor, Including:
My neck was always bothering me and my lower
back. The pain was pretty well constant when I first came in they
found that my neck was so straight that’s why I was having all the
trouble that I was having with my lower back
Describe Previous Treatment and
Results:
Everything that they did was not helping the neck
situation.
Tell What Drugs And/or Medication You
Were Taking, If Any, and If You Feared Addiction:
At times yes, that could be too (about being
addicted) I never really thought about it
What Led to Your Decision to Try
Chiropractic?
I had heard a lot about it and I decided that was
a good way to go because I had gone to doctors and they were not
really helping me
Had You Been to a Chiropractor
Previously?
Yes I had and like I said all they did was jerk
me around and popped my neck and that kind of thing
What Were Your First Impressions of
Chiropractic, this Office and the Doctor?
I’ve enjoyed every bit of it when I came in they
were very friendly and they wanted to really help
What Recommendations Were Made by the
Chiropractor?
They took x-rays and found that the neck was very
straight and that is why I was having all of the pain. So then we
went onto a plan that would work for me
Describe Your Results, Including Time
Involved:
Very good result I did forget to say that I had a
lot of ear noises and when he put my neck back to where it should
be the ear noises went away so I really felt that it was really
beneficial to work with that plan
Is Anyone Else in Your Family a
Chiropractic Patient? If So, for What Conditions?
Yes my husband gets adjusted also and he has had
his back trouble for so many years that I think he waited to long
to go into a plan
How Has Chiropractic Helped
Them?
It is helping him some if he would come regularly
why it really does a lot of good but sometimes he gets lazy and
don’t want to come
What Would You Recommend to Others Who
Are Sick, Suffering or in Pain?
Absolutely, I would
How Do You Feel about Chiropractic, Now
That You Have Enjoyed its Benefits?
I think it is absolutely for any body that has
any kind of back pain, neck pain anything I think they should
really get into a plan to help because it does help
David H.
Describe the Condition for Which You
Consulted Your Chiropractor, Including:
I came in for lower back stiffness and there was
some degree of pain but mostly I couldn’t move my lower back. 8
months before I came in and saw the Doctor I tried letting it ride
and see what happened but nothing did so eventually I came in and
started working in chiropractor
Tell What Drugs And/or Medication You
Were Taking, If Any, and If You Feared Addiction:
A lot of Advil’s, I was somewhat concern about
the addiction but not really but yeah I was taken too many that was
a for sure
What Led to Your Decision to Try
Chiropractic?
Well my wife had been going to Dr. Goff for
several years so it was like, I should have to try
Had You Been to a Chiropractor
Previously?
No
Did You Have Any Doubts That
Chiropractic Would Help You?
I didn’t know weather it would work or not but I
was willing to try and see
What Were Your First Impressions of
Chiropractic, this Office and the Doctor?
Well, I had been coming in with Sheryl for years
so it’s like I already knew it’s a pretty good set up so I felt
comfortable with that.
What Recommendations Were Made by the
Chiropractor?
Just his adjustments I haven’t really been given
any exercise routine or anything like that to go with it so its
been mostly an ongoing thing but it’s been a lot better. I know I
have improved a lot, I can move a lot more freely
Is Anyone Else in Your Family a
Chiropractic Patient? If So, for What Conditions?
My wife Sheryl is
What Would You Recommend to Others Who
Are Sick, Suffering or in Pain?
Yes I would recommend chiropractic to others
How Many Others Have You Told about
Chiropractic?
Yes I have in my immediate family a couple of
other friends perhaps half a dozen people in all and it’s been
overall positive for me
How Do You Feel about Chiropractic, Now
That You Have Enjoyed its Benefits?
It is more confirmed beliefs the alternatives
were going for physical therapy routine that is what one doctor had
suggested was that and then he suggested taking even more Ibuprofen
which I was not going to do that I know how that goes if your just
taking medications to hide the pain it is not actually helping
anything your just masking symptoms. I hardly take painkiller I
don’t like to take anything I don’t take cold medication no pain
medications. I worked myself over pretty severely skiing last week
and then I came in on Monday and I was pretty maligned and I felt a
lot better after I left and as a couple of days more I said oh okay
yeah I am getting it back together again where I know my recovery
time if I hadn’t come in and seen Dr. Goff it would have been
significantly longer.
Maxine B.
Describe the Condition for Which You
Consulted Your Chiropractor, Including:
Well for a long time. I couldn’t bend down 11
years ago and I could not feed my dog and I had a terrible time so
I went to one of these health places and met him there
Describe Previous Treatment and
Results:
I came here I went to an examination and in 2
days I was able to feed my animals but I didn’t quit there because
you don’t quit or you revert back to the way you were if you don’t
complete the treatment
What Would You Recommend to Others Who
Are Sick, Suffering or in Pain?
Well, if they want to live as long as I have
lived I think they need a chiropractor and they need treatment
regularly because waiting for your back to go or something to go
out that’s to late you need to do it before those things happen
How Do You Feel about Chiropractic, Now
That You Have Enjoyed its Benefits?
I think they are good in everything they do. I
tell you if you go to Dr. Goff he’s the best, don’t go to anybody
else.
