Dr. John & Dr. Betty are some very amazing Doctors; I suffer from transverse myelitis which has caused paralysis of my left leg requiring me to use a wheelchair. I'm on my 7 visit with them and I can lift my heel off the ground and pull my leg back. This is the first time in 4 years since I could do this. They are very knowledgeable, honest and take their time with the patients. The receptionists are very friendly and helpful. I definitely recommended them!

I had never been to a chiropractor in the past and was hesitant and a little nervous to try one. My fears were alleviated by the friendly initial phone call to schedule my appointment and then upon meeting Dr. John and Allison. He took the time to get a complete history of my concerns and explain everything he was doing during the visit. He is very knowledgeable and has really helped improve chronic conditions that have been bothersome for years and I'm feeling so much better! Allison also spends time demonstrating exercises and working with you to be sure you have the proper technique down. They even emailed videos of the home exercises to reinforce what I'm supposed to do. I am extremely happy with my experience and would recommend them to anyone!

I am facing a lower back problem and i went there after i read some reviews on the internet. Dr. John is Experienced chiropractor and he helped me recover really well. I wasn't able to stand for longer period of time nor was able to sit for the longer period of time. But with just 7 visits i was able to do both for longer duration. Even my pain has reduced and now i am in self recovery zone. Thanks to Dr. John.

This is my first experience with acute low back pain with sciatica. A friend looked up Active Health and told me they were rated 5 stars in Yelp, so that is what prompted me to choose them over a chiropractor I used 2 years ago. The office staff are warm & inviting, Dr. John spent quality time with me asking about my pain. I felt like I was in the right place.
He told me my back was too inflamed to do a manipulation so they did electrical stimulation and acupuncture. I felt physically and emotionally better and calmer than when I arrived. Two days later I had my next appointment and the atmosphere felt the same: warm & inviting. My back was less inflamed and Dr. John was able to press on some trigger points and give me a small adjustment + another acupuncture session.
I have been to 2 other chiropractors in my life and Dr. John has my best interest at heart. He is very knowledgeable and not a salesman. He is an educator and a great chiropractor. And their prices are very reasonable. Active Health has won my business. If you are in pain and wondering if you can trust these people, I can tell you with 100% certainty that they are caring & knowledgeable healers. Getting out of back pain feels great. Thank you Dr. John

My wife and I needed to lose weight and were desperate to find a solution. We met Dr. Betty in September, 2014. We started the Ideal protein diet. The plan includes weekly weigh ins and guidance from Betty. At first we struggled to learn about nutrition. With her expert guidance and knowledge, we were successful. 6 months later, I lost 75 pounds and my wife lost 55 pounds.
We could not have been successful without Betty's patience and encouraging help. She taught us all about weight loss, using vegetables, portion control and health. It was amazing what we accomplished with her help. I am not the most cooperative patient when losing weight but she ignored my negative attitude and kept me motivated. She found a solution when ever we encountered a problem, from appetite to health issues.
Her office staff was very supportive. I highly recommend Betty to anyone trying to lose weight. She changed our lives for the better. A patient and knowledgeable professional.

My wife has been a patient of this office for a few years now and has been recommending this office to her friends. Dr. John is very compassionate and has incredible insight. With that said, our three year old daughter has been experiencing some health issues and Dr. John advised my wife that he offers evaluations for toddlers and we went ahead and brought our daughter in to see him.
Apparently doctor John has a lot of experience in alternative medicine and we have been impressed with some of the finding that we discovered during our visits and the progress that is being made by our daughter. We are extremely pleased with the service we receive at this office and would highly recommend this to anyone seeking a great experience.

Dr john and dr betty are fantastic. Not only are they great at fixing people. They work with you on payments. I once owed the 400 dollars and it was around x mas time. I went in to pay a little towards the balance and they turned my payment away. They said this is a time of year everyone is short on money. Dont worry about it we won't send u to collections or anything just have a merry Christmas.
Do u know any other business that would say that. These people are genuinely nice people who care about there clients on a professional and personal level. I recommend everyone I know to go see them.

My husband and I have been going to Dr John for over a year now. We commute over 30 minutes each way after we relocated but it is worth it. The treatment we receive brings great relief to our areas of discomfort. It is very easy to get an appointment and he takes his time to ensure your needs are met and questions are answered. We recommend him highly.

I found Active Health and Dr. John, tried them out based on the reviews I read online. I was looking for something close to home making it easier for me to get to their office. They are worth a drive now that I know about how well they treat you. My experience thus far has been very good and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for care. I have already talked about them to friends who based on my comments are going to try them out as well. Hope this helps you.
