OCTOBER 15, 2003

My name is Mary Corder. I am a medical examiner for several insurance companies. I was referred to Dr. Venn from one of my patients. I had been to numerous doctors regarding my situation with no avail. I was diagnosed in May of 2003 with microscopic colitis and undifferentiated spondylarthropathy. Basically, that means a tendency toward inflammatory arthritis of the spine, sacroiliac and other joints of the body. Bottom line, I was in pain.

After listening to my patient speak so highly of Dr. Venn and how Dr. Venn has helped him I thought, Why not? Well, thank God I did. I could barely get up in the mornings. I thought, “How will I ever make it to work today?”

I went and saw Dr. Venn. His staff is wonderful. Everyone made me feel right at home. Dr. Venn was extremely informed and I felt very comfortable with him. He knew exactly what to do to help my pain I had been dealing with for the last several years.

After just the first visit with an adjustment, it was amazing how I felt. Not only did my pain seem less, but I was able to sleep better at night. During the day, I felt energetic. I was amazed.

I had spent so much money on all these doctors who basically couldn’t help me with anything except with more prescription drugs. I don’t like to have to rely on anything like that to help me get through the day. With Dr. Venn’s knowledge and his technique I have never been better.

I wake up every morning feeling great and I owe it all to him. I am glad I was led to Dr. Venn. He has helped me be me again.

Thank you.

Why did you come to our office, what was going on? That is, physically (symptoms), at work (focus, abilities, productivity, loss of income), at home with relationships (were you grouchy, irritable)?

I suffered from TMJ and scoliosis. My TMJ had gotten so severe, I could barely open my mouth. I put up with this for 2 years.

What did the problem prevent you from doing?

I had great difficulty chewing and had just gotten used to the pain. Forget kissing my husband!! It was too painful.

What did you do for the problem before you came to see us (go to M.D., use prescription drugs, use over the counter drugs)?

I had seen my dentist and was fitted for an oral appliance to wear at night and given muscle relaxants. The appliance was uncomfortable and the drugs made me feel awful. I’m a pharmacist and I hate medicating to cover problems.

What happened to you after starting chiropractic care? What ways did your life improve? (Symptoms, life at work, home relationships, etc.)?

Dr. Venn completely fixed my jaw! It’s been about 8 months and my jaw is still perfect! Dr. Venn fixed the problem in about 3 visits. But I felt relief after the first visit. GOD BLESS DR. VENN!!

Why did you come to our office, what was going on? That is, physically (symptoms), at work (focus, abilities, productivity, loss of income), at home with relationships (were you grouchy, irritable)?

I had whiplash from a car accident, but I also had gastritis, which is a non-specific pain in my abdomen. I’d had the gastritis for months, and it kept getting worse and worse. I spent almost every night doubled over in pain, and medicine didn’t help. Plus, as an author of dating books, I usually spend twelve plus hours each day hunched over my computer. My shoulders constantly ached.

What did the problem prevent you from doing?

The gastritis kept me from eating normally. I had given up onions, garlic, butter and oil in an attempt to stop the pain. Nothing worked, and my husband was cranky because I wouldn’t eat his fabulous (garlic filled) Italian dinners. In addition, my writing was suffering because of the chronic pain in my shoulders.

What did you do for the problem before you came to see us (go to M.D., use prescription drugs, use over the counter drugs)?

I had been on antibiotics and a plethora of stomach acid medicine for the gastritis. And I took Advil on a regular basis for the pain in my shoulders.

What happened to you after starting chiropractic care? What ways did your life improve? (Symptoms, life at work, home relationships, etc.)?

Not only did my neck start to feel better (from the whiplash), but my chronic stomach pain literally went away. I have not had an attack since my first week of seeing Dr. Venn and I sleep much better now that I’m not in chiropractic pain. And I’m happy to say that my latest book is almost done!

Dear Dr. VennFirst of all, I would like to apologize for not writing this letter sooner, but life has been quite busy for our family lately. I am sure you can understand, since you have experienced my kids’ energy levels at your office before.

Secondly, we would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping our Alex get better and for breaking the cycle of ear infections he was stuck in for such a long time.

Alexander suffered from recurring ear infections. When he developed a cold or became congested, his ears would not drain properly. He suffered from five consevutive ear infections, and on our last visit to his pediatrician, we were told that he would need to see an ENT to explore the reason why hi sears were not properly draining. We were also told that further rounds of antibiotics would most likely not work for him.

We shared our situation with a friend and she told us about you and how much you had helped her child. I’ll admit that when Gwen first told my husband and I about chiropractic treatment I was very skeptical, but our only other choice at that point was to take our child to an ENT for a possible surgical procedure due to the recurring ear infections and the antibiotics’ lack of effectiveness.

We decided to give it a try, and what a difference your treatments made! After just a couple of treatments Alexander began to sleep better and seemed to be in a better mood. He also started to vocalize more, and no longer was a “clingy” child at the Mother’s Day Out program where he attends. Also, before he began chiropractic treatment, Alexander would get colds, but I noticed that there was little or no drainage coming out of his nose, like most other kids. After a few treatments, his nose began to drain more when he was congested. The last time he had a cold he was able to recover faster and I never had to give him any medicine for it!

The best result from your treatments is that Alexander has not had an ear infection again since we began chiropractic treatment. We feel so blessed to have such a healthy child and to have found you. We not only want to use this letter to thank you, but would like for you to share it with others so they too can benefit from your treatment

Thank you so much for all you have done, and God bless!

Lola Alexander, Isabella, and Floyd Hess
