Our Patients Speak
I first came to Total Body Wellness in Arlington June 2007 with severe neck pain after I had a baby. There was not a single pain reliever that would work and I could barely move my neck. I had never been to a Chiropractor before, but after just 12 treatments I had absolutely no pain and I now have more energy. Total Body Wellness is great!

I began coming to Total Body Wellness in September of 2006. I suffered from scoliosis and high foot arches. I guess the arches are a by-product of bad genetics and the scoliosis is a result of taking poor care of my back. Both were pretty severe cases.
I had previous met with an orthopedist and a podiatrist. Both gave me braces that were only temporary fixes for a long standing problem.
I first starting coming to Total Body Wellness for massages. Then I met with Dr. Jessica and my back feels much better, but the main inprovement has been in my feet. After purchasing shoe orthotics, I can run long distances pain free, which before was somthing more than impossible. I wear them in every pair of shoes I own.

I came to Body Tune-up on Aug. 15, 2005 suffering from headaches, sinus/allergy, pain between my shoulder blades, and addiction/craving issues. I have had my headaches and allergy problems seasonally for 5 years. The pain between my shoulder blades was so severe that it interfered with my daily activities and was have "hunch back syndrom" for 5 years. I have been addicted to pain medication for the last 5 years and was severe enough to where I have been hospitalized several times for.
I have been seeing a medical doctor for the past 5 years for the addiction and allergies/headaches. My results with the medical doctors was for the addiction they put me on anti-depressants along with other medication for the cravings, which really didn't help. For the allergies and headaches they put me on medication that only helped until I quit taking them.
I found Total Body Wellness through a job opportunity and never even realized how chiropractic care worked. I thought it was just for back pain. After 12 weeks of care I no longer have headaches. My allergies are about 90% better with no mediciation. I am very happy to report I am off all my anti-drepression medication, sleep-aide medication, craving medication and have been "CLEAN" for 4 1/2 months. I have never made it this long in 5 years!!!

After 12 weeks of chiropractic care, Braeden no longer gets ear infections, and best of all his ear have quit draining. He is a much happier child and no longer takes any medication.

Came to Total Body Wellness on Aug. 18, 2005 with severe allergies/sinus problems and headaches. So severe she was taking 2 different medications for it. ENT doctor told her to just stay on her medication and it will control it.
After 12 weeks of chiropractic care Rachel is off all her allergy medication and no longer get's headaches. Mom wishes she knew Dr. Jessica before Rachel got her tonsils removed last year, because she had complications from the surgery and would have probably never needed it if she had been getting regular adjustments.

Came to Total body Wellness on Aug 18, 2005 with IBS, Type 1 Diabetic, headaches, and severe menstral cramps. She has had IBS since she was 8 years old and has been hospitalized for it. Diagnosed as a diabetic a year ago and is taking insulin shots daily and has also been hospitalized for this as well. She has had headaches on and off her whole life and has taken medication for it. Her menstral cramps have been so severe for the past 5 months, she has taken over-the-counter medication and missed school on several occasions for it.
After 12 weeks of chiropractic care her IBS has improved a great deal. She will always have to take insulin but is managing much better. Her headaches have improved 90% and doesn't take any more over-the-counter medication.

I came to Total Body Wellness on Oct 24, 2005 having trouble walking, sleeping, and back and neck pain. I have seen medical physicians and they couldn't find a reason why I was feeling the was I was.
I found Total Body Wellness through their website. After a couple weeks of chiropractic care I have had great results. I can walk without pain, I am sleeping better, and generally feeling great. Last weekend I was able to give my kitchen the deep cleaning it needed, without realizing it 5 hours had past and I was feeling very little pain. That never would've happened before I started receiving chiropractic care.

I have had low back pain for as long as I can remember. In 1995, after a work-related injury, I underwent shoulder surgery-a year later my elbow was done. Neither of these surgeries delt with the root of the problem (ruptured disc in the cervical spine). The basic result of the surgeries was cronic pain in my neck and shoulders.
During just one month of adjustments by Dr. Jessica, I can honestly say I feel amazingly energized. No longer do I have to constantly stop while on the computer because my arms are numb. I have no headaches and I'm sleeping much better. In fact, I've already reduced my dosage of my antidepressant.
Since June, I have been walking 1-2 miles per day. One would think it would become easier, but it never did-my legs and back always hurt. Now, my time is cut, distance increased and I have no pain. AMAZING! Thanks Dr. Stangenwald!!

I first came to Total Body Wellness in April 2006 at the age of 16 months old. I was always suffering from ear infections, fever and colds from going to a daycare were the other kids would bring germs and the rooms weren't clean enough.
Before seeing Dr. Jessica, I had gone to a medical doctor and he gave me antibiotics, which only worked for a short time.
After about two weeks of coming to see Dr. Jessica, my ear infection went away and my colds diminished. I haven't had an ear infection since!! No more pediatricians or meds ever!!!!

I started coming to Total Body Wellness in March of 2006. My chief complaint was low back pain and neck pain during pregnancy.
I had never gone to see anyone for this pain but I came into Body Tune-Up for a massage and talked to Dr. Jessica about it. I came in for an appointment and after time the results were excellent. I had exercises I had to complete 2-3 times a week with adjustments. Following the exercises increased my recovery time. As a result, I have increased mobility.

I first came to Total Body Wellness in July of 2006. I was suffering from migraines and I was diagnoised with 2 bulging disks in my neck. I cried everyday because the pain was so bad!
I was treated by a Pain Specialist who wanted to do Steroid Injections and I freaked out and that was when I showed up at Dr. Jessica's office. I was first looking for a massage therapist, because I was literally getting a massage 2 to 3 time a week becasue the pain was so bad.
Now when I see Dr. Jessica, they know me so well I can tell them where the pain is and I walk out without pain - NO MEDS REQUIRED!!! HALLELUIA!! I'M BEING HEALED - PRAISE THE LORD!!!

I first came to Total Body Wellness in early April 2007. I had a couple of things going on. First, my lower back stiffness - a chronic condition, years old, from improper lifting and posture problems, the severity varied from a 1-2 out of 10 to a 7-8 out of 10 on the pain scale. I also experienced numbness in my index fingers due to poor posture and football injuries.
My low back stiffness had been treated by another chiropractor before, as well as a medical doctor through muscle relaxers and neurosurgery. For my finger numbness, I have been treated by a physical therapist and another chiropractor. As a result of my condition neurogurgery was required to repair a ruptured disk and repeated visits to chiropractors to treat muscle strain. However, the physical therapy had no effect on the fingers and one chiropractor aggravated my shoulder/finger problem.
I came to Total Body Wellness through Gold's Gym in North Arlington. I felt Dr. Stangenwald addressed some nagging questions I had and through her treatment protocol my back feels looser.
