I have been a patient of Dr. James Whittlesey for over 20 years. Now at age 75 I have a healthy spine and have been healed of other ailments through his multi-faceted abilities and techniques both in chiropractics and knowledge of natural remedies.

I had a lot of lower back pain and leg pain. Every 2-3 months I would be unable to stand erect, walk comfortably or sit for longer than ten minutes. I was no longer able to lead a normal life. No skiing, hiking, biking, walking etc. I was missing time at work. A friend recommended Dr. James Whittlesey. I had never been to a chiropractor before. I am very pleased with my treatment and Dr. Whittlesey’s wonderful attitude has my attitude about chiropractic. I regret not coming here 3 years ago.
I was in chronic pain and was having frequent migraines when I first saw Dr. James Whittlesey. I have been to many specialists including, neurologists and orthopedic surgeons without relief or a solution. I heard about him from a friend who swore by him. Right away I was impressed by Dr. Whittlesey’s friendly manner and professionalism. He seemed to know just what was causing my pain.I felt better after my very first visit. After a few sessions my pain and headaches were completely gone. It has been a few years since my first appointment. Occasionally when I start to feel out of balance I return for treatment.
