I recently visited Active Life Chiropractic after being gone for two years. What an amazing team! When I explained my issues to Rebbeca on the inital phone call, she got me in that day. Once I got there, I was taken back for therapy immediately and treated for an hour and 1/2. My medical history and chief complaints were thoroughly discussed, a physical exam, and 2 separate muscle relaxing techniques provided prior to the adjustments needed. I got immediate relief from Dr Schade's healing hands. After the adjustments, there was a laser therapy applied to aid in quick healing. I was treated by a few different team members throughout the appontment, most of them long term employees of Active Life Chiropractic. They are all very knowledgable and very imformative on all proceedures. It was nice going back and seeing so many familiar faces. Dr Shade definitely has the touch!

In May 2009 I was having a problem that my primary care physician passed me along to a specialist, who passed me along to another specialist. Specialist #1 wanted to give me lupron depot, a shot that would send me into menopause and then do surgery. Specialist #2 seemed to agree and wanted an extra surgeon. I did not think they'd done enough testing and diagnosis to come to such an extreme conclusion, I googled around and found that chiropractic is often used for this condition with good results. I have been to Active Life 4 times now, and my problem did not come back on its previous schedule, and I'm feeling good. The doctors and therapists at Active Life work with me to give me things I can do for myself (dietary changes and exercises) and also use various massage and chiropractic techniques & other tools in their clinic to help my body heal itself. No invasive chemicals or surgery. It's not a 'magic solution'--It's going to take a while to get to 100% healthy and I have to do my part with my eating choices and exercises a few times a day, but I am satisfied with my results so far and I ALWAYS feel better leaving the clinic than I did going in. I am a down to earth, somewhat skeptical, somewhat cynical person, but chiropractic WORKS for me. What a relief. Pros: Saturday appointments Cons: none yet

Every time I went in I was remembered and greeted wamly by the receptionists. Then I recieved care from at least three different professionals, including a chiropractor, massage therepist, and physical therepist, and spent time hooked up to one of their fancy machines. I was never in there for less than 1.5 hours! I loved how they integrate treatment with prevention elements like nuttition and posture, and they really worked with me to find a way to fit my schedule and insurance difficulties. And its far from your normal steryl doctor's office environment, they have beautifle art displays and the staff are casual and joke with each other. I would highly reccomend them for anyone with any sort of health problem and I hope the rest of the healthcare industry follows their example. Pros: Great staff, a variety of care options, flexible payment Cons: It's on the expensive side, but they take ins & its worth it

I would like to say how great my results have been to your new treatment addition. Dr. Nick and his technical marvel have been just wonderful. After nine months with another chiropractor and six months with therapy and adjustments, it only took a couple of months of sublaxation for me to be pain free. I have complete range of mobility and feel great. The treatment itself is amazing and so comfortable. I'm usually snoring by the end. Dr. Nick has been so professional and thorough as well. His explanations of the treatment and its benefits were just perfect. I would heartily recommend this treatment to anyone with persistent back pain caused by compressed disks. You, of course, have my permission to use this statement in any way you like. Thanks. Pros: Pain free Cons: Patience and dedication

Dr. Schade and everyone at Active Life make every visit a good one. Rebecca manages the front desk with efficiency and friendliness. Dr. Shade is a skilled healer with a variety of tools at her service, including Graston, the roller table, heat therapy, massage and more I can't remember. She examines each person then treats your body on that day. She pays attention to every detail and makes sure that each person walks out of there feeling better than when they came in. i can't recommend Active Life highly enough. Dr. Schade saved my back after a car accident that caused me severe whiplash, and she has also worked on various parts of my body to make everything better as I need it.

From the first time I called for an appointment, Active Life Chiropractic has exceeded my expectations. I have been plagued with severe headaches for several years and have taken numerous medications with very little relief. When I called to make an appointment, I was greeted with friendliness and professionalism. I was able to see Dr. Schade the very same day. Dr. Schade was very encouraging and, at my request, gave me an adjustment at my first visit. When I left there I knew I had made a decision that would change my life for the better. I was right. Over the first several weeks, my condition improved dramatically. After almost three months, I continue to improve. I am now on a 'maintenance plan' where I go in once every three weeks for treatment. I feel better than I have felt in a very long time. If you have chronic pain, you should give Active Life a call! Pros: caring, friendly doctors and staff; effective treatment Cons: no cons I can think of!

I went to ALC with little hope of really getting well, I had been through a mirage of test and doctors.After one visit I was hopeful.After my second visit with Dr.Lara I was AMAZED !!! I felt better than I had in over a year.I had almost given up trail riding. Now I'm back to riding my mules,working on the ranch and even put in a garden this week. The staff is professional & friendly. If your tired of being in pain ( it's depressing) don't wait any longer. I have heard back from people I referred and they are as delighted as I am. My pain is gone, my balance is back and I'm LIVING LIFE again, you can too !!! See ya on the trail, Rhonda Pros: excellent care, no long wait times Cons: none

When I came into ALC, I was hunched over with extreme (!!!) neck and back pain. To be honest, I was skeptical and a little fearful of chiropractic care - all the wrenching and jarring of the bones...and I was hyper-sensitive to touch. After the first visit, I had some real relief (I was upright and moving slowly) and the hope that all would get better soon. After about 4-5 visits, I was able to resume my everyday activities, and after about 10 visits, I was upright and able to move freely and rapidly. I AM SOOOOO THANKFUL FOR EVERYONE AT ALC for both their expert skill and know-how to get me moving again soon, but even more for their constant kindness and professionalism. I was always welcomed with a compassionate smile and treated with kind hands and calming, up-to-date therapies. If you are a first-timer like I was, this is the place you want to be. Pros: When you're in pain, compassion is what you need most. They've got it in spades! Cons: Insurance only covered 20 visits per year.

I was reluctant to go to a chiropractor after a past experience, but I was in such pain, when my daughter in law mentioned Dr Lara, I made the appointment. The treatment with the activator is so new to me, I had no idea how it could help, but it made such a difference. Each visit I get better and better and now I am going to continue my visits so I can avoid lapsing back to the severe pain . Several members of my family now go to Active Life for care and I have already referred my friends to Dr.Lara and will continue to do so. The entire experience at Active Life, the reception, the treatments the therapy, and the caring have made me a true believer in chiropractic care! Pros: Appointments are always on time. Cons: None so far.

For well over a decade I've turned to Dr. Schade for a variety of problems (e.g. rotator cuff injury, fractured tailbone, whiplash, twisted knee, pinched nerve, etc.). Not only do I feel better upon leaving, but I've found the recovery period is faster and more effective compared to other types of treatment I've tried and other practitioners I've seen. I also call upon her when it feels as though I need a general-maintenance adjustment; I always emerge feeling refreshed and "unlocked"...taller too! What's more, I continually receive compliments about sitting "so nice and straight". I can assure you this is not due to genetics or concerted effort, rather a corrected and sturdy spine. In utilizing various techniques and services, practitioners at Active Life Chiropractic Center are able to treat patients' immediate ailment(s) as well as attend to the process of whole-body healing. All who work there are genuinely personable and interested in patients' well-being.
