Child with NLD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, chronic illness, headaches, unable to run
“Dear Dr. Fuller,
We wanted to thank you for your role in helping Evan become a normal, healthy 11 year old. Prior to seeing you a year ago, he was weak, chronically sick and suffered from emotional problems and learning disabilities. His pediatricians were unable to figure out why his immune system was not functioning properly, and kept prescribing more and more antibiotics, until he wound up in the hospital with a serious stomach disease. He also suffered from daily debilitating headaches, and his legs were so weak he could barely run. We were desperate to get answers that the traditional medical community could not provide.
The regular adjustments and prescribed exercise, along with a change in diet and nutritional supplements, you recommended have changed Evan’s life. He is now happy, confident and well! The balance and coordination exercises have been so successful, he can now juggle. The supplements seem to keep his immune system strong, and the adjustments have cured everything from swimmer’s ear to daily headaches. His academic performance has improved and his learning disabilities are much less pronounced.
Evan still has some hurdles to overcome as he enters middle school, but we are confident he will continue to progress. We truly thank you for your thought and caring as well as the hard work in helping to make Evan well.”
Sincerely,
Andrea and Jim C.
CHRONIC LOW BACK PAIN: SOLVED
“When I first came to Fuller Chiropractic, I could not sit in a chair for more than 20 minutes without experiencing excruciating pain and requiring 2 to 3 minutes to ratchet myself up to a semi-straight standing position. A genetic condition exacerbated by years of being on the road playing music and traveling in planes, trains, buses and cars did this to me. At one point, I even thought about surgery, considering my life was so drastically limited by this chronic condition. I met Dr. Scott Fuller through a fellow student friend of mine while I was in school re-training for a career in Dental Hygiene, which would allow me to stay off the road and work in a program that would allow for recovery. From the very first appointment, I knew I had come to the right place! The clock was not ticking in Dr. Fuller's world. I felt like I was his only patient. Quite frankly, I was not accustomed to the continuous follow-up calls and concern that he show for my condition and me. I felt like I had a trainer in my corner! I attended one of his classes and was amazed at the depth of his knowledge. I have been to many chiropractors before, not to mention acupuncturists, acupressurists, medical doctors, herbalists, faith healers, soothsayers… you name it. I tried them all! And no one had the complete understanding and wherewithal to disseminate information like Dr. Fuller. It was based on this body of information that I was able to assimilate what was necessary for my recovery. From that point on, I took every word of advice, every exercise, technique and recommendation that Dr. Fuller prescribed and made it policy. This brings me to the reason I am writing this testimonial.
I now live a relatively pain-free life! For those of you that are at the starting gate with your therapy, heed my words: the road back to health can be a long one, and at times it may seem like nothing will ever get you back to the freedom of movement you desire. After 18 months of compliance with my therapy, and occasional windows of relief, I was still not where I wanted to be. Dr. Fuller never gave up on me, so, I didn't give up. I doubled my time on the exercises and the foam block that was part of my therapy, and came more often to see Dr. Fuller, putting my faith and trust in his medicine. After all, it took years to get to the condition I was in, so it made sense that it may take some time to rectify it. Well, somewhere around the two-year mark, I made a miraculous breakthrough. Talk about a new lease on life, I felt like someone had just quitclaimed a new spine to me and shaved 15 years off my life. I was able to live like a normal human being again (something I had long given up on). I went for months without any relapses, and when I did have a relapse, it was due largely to the fact that I was taking risks like a teenager again. That's how good I felt, being able to run, bike, ski, workout, etc., sometimes pushing the limit. Now I see Dr. Fuller once a week and do my therapy at a maintenance level that has all but allowed me to forget I even have a back condition. I did give up certain activities that tax my limits, and I suggest you evaluate the risk-benefit factor in any activity. But all in all, what I have given up has been easy considering the reward of living an active, limber, flexible and pain-free life! Trust Dr. Scott Fuller, stay the course with your therapy, and have faith that someday you will wake up feeling all whole lot better!”

ADHD improved with non-drug solutions
"When my son Michael turned seven, he was diagnosed with ADHD. His pediatrician recommended medication. I did not approve his approach and started searching for different available treatments. I noticed my son’s condition worsened when he ate processed food, anything with sugar or food colorings.
I brought Michael to Dr. Fuller's office in October 2003. He recommended high doses of fish oil, a special exercise twice a day, chiropractic treatment twice a week, and to eat lots of fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
Within two months, I noticed that his symptoms improved dramatically. He was able to sit at school and be focused. I also saw improvements at home.
To this day, Michael continues to see Dr. Fuller once a month. He still does his exercises every day, takes fish oil and maintains a healthy diet.
It is very important for children diagnosed with ADHD to exercise. Michael plays indoor and outdoor soccer and participates in a swim program all year round. We go on bicycle trips when the weather permits. We ski in the winter months and go camping in the summertime.
Michael feels better about himself.
Thank you Dr. Fuller!"

Chronic neck and back pain from Scoliosis-solved with Chiropractic
“I first came to Dr. Fuller over the summer because of the pains that I was having in my back and neck due to my scoliosis. I had never been to a Chiropractor and at the time I did not believe that there could ever be a time that I would not have pain on a daily basis but due to the work that Dr. Fuller did with me coupled with staying consistent with the exercise program that we put together my back and neck are virtually pain free!!
Dr. Fuller is a miracle worker and I am so thankful that I took the initiative to make my first appointment. I would recommend him to anyone who has pains in their back or neck and who do not want to go on living with the pain!
I really appreciate how you go the extra mile for your patients!”

Chronic Low Back Pain: Solved
“You can’t keep doing the same thing and expect different results!
After suffering for 3 years with low back pain that could not be diagnosed by traditional doctors, I decided to see a chiropractor. Luckily it was Dr. Fuller! It was his impeccable expertise that left me pain free upon my first visit and alignment. I have remained so ever since.
One cannot explain the frustration of being limited in their active life by a constant pain, that traditional doctors tell you is nothing that they can diagnose.
Upon my first visit to Dr. Fuller, he looked at me before doing x-rays and said, "You have one leg shorter than the other. You must have had foot problems too."
Boy, was he ever right! Not only had my back been bothering me, but I had seen my foot doctor on two occasions for sores on my feet. In addition, after walking every day for exercise, thinking the more I exercise the better it will be for my pain, the more my hip joints hurt. It all made sense now!
Well, everything changed with my first visit to Dr. Fuller! I received my first alignment and x-rays were taken. The pain was finally gone. My x-rays revealed that my left leg was ¾ inch shorter than my right leg. This put strain on my spine and everything else. In addition, it was revealed that I also had a reverse curve in my neck with 2 spurs. Dr. Fuller stated that if nothing was done now this would cause real problems in the future.
Currently, I go for regular alignments, do daily exercises to reverse, slowly, back to where things are supposed to be and to keep them there. Even though some damage can not be repaired, the pain can be stopped! Dr. Fuller gave me lifts to place in my shoe to compensate for height [short leg]. In the meantime, I have had special lifts placed on my shoes by a store that specializes in this. With all of these changes in place I am now pain free and can stay that way. As an added bonus, Dr. Fuller had a wealth of information of diet & health! I discovered that the traditional American diet that I thought was what my body needed, was completely counterproductive. I used the information I received on certain foods as an experiment on myself. After thorough research, I found this information to be accurate, truthful and also not public! My visit to Dr. Fuller was a visit that changed my way of thinking about traditional methods of doing everything. And this resulted in a treatment of my body, inside and out. Today, I am back to having more energy than ever, and who would have thought it would come from my neighborhood chiropractor.
Thank you Dr. Fuller!”
Sincerely, Susan Deteso
