“I first consulted with Dr. Elkin for a sciatic nerve problem. I’m GRATEFUL for his advice and care.

“My first encounter with Elkin Natural Health Centre was in the beginning of 2000. I had developed IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). The medical doctors told me that I have to live with it – nothing could be done.
“With Chiropractic care, the pain went away and I’ve never had that problem again.
“Also, my daughter went to the Chiropractor because I was tired of all the antibiotics the doctors were giving her to get rid of an ear infection. She would get a cold and it would always escalate.
“Following Chiropractic care, she doesn’t need to be on antibiotics, or puffers. She wants to see the Chiropractor instead of going to the medical doctor and being medicated.” |

“I came to Elkin Natural Health Centre for an assessment and have walked away with a whole lot more. The staff has always been cheerful and helpful with my sometimes silly questions.
“Gone are the little aches and pains I woke up with each morning. I sleep much sounder now and do wake refreshed!
“Prior to Chiropractic care I used a nasal spray for 3 years. I thought I was developing allergies to something. After each adjustment the congestion just drains away. IT’S AMAZING! I haven’t used the spray in months and don’t intend to.
“...I’M HERE TO STAY.

“I have not experienced any sinus issues since my care began. I used to take medication daily and no longer need to!
“I have not been ill at all this year.
“I HAVE NEVER FELT BETTER.” |

“For 3 years in a row, my 2 sons, aged 3 and 4½, came down with a bad cold at the end of October. This would last 4-6 weeks.
“After they started their adjustments, the colds only last a few days at most.
“Chiropractic care has OPTIMIZED THEIR IMMUNE SYSTEMS to fight and overcome any sickness that comes their way, to a much better degree than before chiropractic care.” |

“I had an eating problem for 3 months and was living off boost and other liquid meal replacements.
“When I started care, I felt more energy almost right away. Now I am eating normally!… and this is after 5 perplexed specialists!
“Elkin’s have been a great blessing and I will continue Chiropractic FOR LIFE.” |

“Following my stroke which ended my working career, my right leg was affected, and riding my bicycle was very difficult.
“When I started going for my adjustments, I thought I was wasting my time. After 4 months of following all instructions given to me, I got my bike out again. I was able to ride it with little trouble.
“This is the best I have felt since I had the stroke.” |

“Through Chiropractic care I have experienced greater physical mobility, ease of walking, and overall a sense and feeling of well-being.
“My entire spinal column feels much more flexible than ever before, my stress level has been sliced in half, I have certainly gained an improved posture, and I am able to bend, twist and reach with more ease and flexibility.
“I am a living proof that Chiropractic works.” |

“After eight months in Dr. Ali’s care, I am pleased to report that the episodic back spasms which first brought me to Elkin Natural Health Centre have largely disappeared –- to the point where I no longer worry about when the next bout of back pain is going to lay me up for a week.
“As well, the morning stiffness which I thought was simply part and parcel of growing into my mid 40’s has also lessened noticeably.” |

“Since my care began at Elkin Natural Health Centre, I have noticed many, many health benefits:
- I have begun to jog again;
- I sleep better (i.e. without interruption);
- I can play tennis with my kids for 2-3 hours at a time (whereas before starting care I would have to call it a day, after an hour).
“I am so happy because the Elkin Natural Health Centre has given me my health back and I am also extremely grateful for the gift of wellness.” |

“When Harrison was about 6 months old he began to have seizures.
“At first I thought it might have been over-tiredness or hunger. I was really concerned when I knew he was well rested and his little tummy was full. I called TeleHealth and took him to the doctor and neither one had an explanation.
“Harrison’s grandfather suggested that perhaps it might be a neurological problem and that he should go see his chiropractor.
“We made an appointment with Dr. Colin right away and we were treated like family as soon as we walked in the door. Harrison enjoyed his visits and within about a month the episodes began to disappear and had stopped completely 6 months later.
“The help we received from Dr. Colin and his staff didn’t stop there. Information and helpful advice for both Harrison’s and my health has been invaluable.
“As of March, I too have been seeing Dr. Colin. I feel great after every visit and according to the scans alone, in just 4 short months, IT HAS MADE QUITE A DIFFERENCE.” |

“I Came to Elkin Natural Health Centre with the attempt to better my posture, reduce my migraines and to ease my lower back pain.
“In just the first two weeks, and to my surprise, I have not had a migraine (I was normally having at least 1 a week and headaches everyday). I am now sleeping better, my moodiness is minimal and I’ve cut back on the medication for that.
“Overall my health has greatly improved and I am more energized.” |
| Trisha Murfin |
 |
“Very pleased with progress so far.
“In fact I came into the office with a huge headache, and Dr. Colin did my adjustment, and within 5-10 minutes my headache was completely gone and never did come back. I suffered with that headache for 4 days.
“So in my opinion, it goes without saying: Adjustments do definitely work.
“Added note: my sleeping pattern has improved drastically.” |

“Before I began care at Elkin Natural Health Centre, I was a mess.
“I was unable to stand for long periods of time due to continuous back aches, and couldn’t get regular sleep. There weren’t very many happy days, and fatigue was getting out of hand.
“Since my care began, I can now work a full day. I have no pain in my hips when I sleep, and walking is now a joy instead of a chore. I no longer take any regular medication except for an occasional headache, which also now is very rare.
“I wish I had taken the chance and gotten proper information long time ago.
“Thank you for giving me a better life to be more active, and happy to get up every morning. I always look forward to coming for my energy lift.
“All of you are great!” |

| “The staff is very friendly and I am pleased at how they accommodate my busy schedule to see my appointments. I am grateful to Dr. Elkin and his associates for their expertise and how they have HELPED IMPROVE MY QUALITY OF LIFE.” |

“I was a pessimist at best. As an ex-internationally ranked athlete, and farm boy the thought of having a few little adjustments to my spine and bones to cure sickness, sore joints, stuffy noses, and other bodily ailments was quite foreign, and even a bit comical.
“Over my life I’ve suffered breaks, sprains, concussions, kicks from cows, and many other small types of injuries that I never honestly paid much attention to. Nothing a cast, some pills, and a good night’s sleep couldn’t cure anyways.
“It wasn’t until earlier this year when I couldn’t tolerate the stiffness in my lower back from an office job that brought me to the Chiropractor.
“Only wanting to be instantly adjusted, and good to go for the next 24 years.
“I learned that all the of the bumps, breaks, and bruises had brought me to a more severe “phase 2” neck. X-rays showed the pinched nerves in my neck probably resulting from a concussion 2 years ago that I never did get checked out. I missed a day of practice, slept, took a lot of Advil and was back in the water the next day.
“I’ve always had a stuffy nose. I’ve been to specialists, been through allergy tests, taken many different types of nasal sprays, and pills but nothing ever worked longer than 5 minutes.
“After only about a month or 2 of being adjusted 3 times a week did I notice my nose wasn’t stuffy any longer! I was pretty amazed. X-rays a few months later showed minimal improvements to the curvature of my neck, but at least my nose wasn’t stuffy. I just saved a few hundred bucks on prescriptions!
“Now into the 2nd last week of November and like clock-work this is the week of the year I always catch the flu, putting me out of commission for a few weeks. Before Chiropractic care, even with the flu shot, I ended up getting the flu. THIS YEAR… NO FLU!!!, OR EVEN A FLU SHOT. Still getting adjusted now 2 times a week, I didn’t get more than a day of feeling rough.
“So in conclusion, it has to be more than placebo. I have more energy, I haven’t been sick in a year, colds last only a day or two, and the improvements in my x-rays make it all seem worth it.
“It’s been a positive lifestyle change for me, and I’m sold on the concept of Chiropractic care; powering myself up and keeping all the nerves flowing. I guess that makes me an optimist now.” |

“I have benefited from chiropractic care from age 16. At that time, my family doctor sent me to a specialist to treat a whiplash injury. Their solution was to recommend fusion of the vertebrae in my neck.
“My parents then tried Chiropractic care because they knew that surgery was too limiting a solution. I understood from that point on, that I would need maintenance care for the rest of my life, to maintain a healthy spine.
“Due to a series of circumstances that occurred, I was unable to follow up with care for a few years. Now at age 61, I have learned through my assessment and x-rays taken at the Elkin Health Centre, that I have scoliosis and subluxations in some spinal joints. No one has ever taken the time to fully explain my x-rays to me before.
“At the point of writing this testimonial, I have received only 3 adjustments and am already able to sleep through the night without being awakened by severe headaches and pins and needles in my arms and hands. I am thankful for the referral of my son’s family who began care for themselves and their 3 children, 2 months ago.
“I have found the doctors and staff to be most friendly and attentive. They listen to my story, and respond accordingly. Dr. Ali has phoned my home to make certain that I am tolerating the adjustments.
“By contrast, my family doctor, who felt certain that my headaches and the numbness in my arms and legs was due to a stroke, has not even phoned with the results of my CAT-scan which I had done several weeks ago.
“The teachings regarding the nervous system and Chiropractic, has given me a better understanding of my body’s functions. I am confident that with continuing Chiropractic care, I will begin to experience better health and regain energy!” |
