We were blown away with how friendly everyone was! They didn’t rush us through to try and get to the next person they answered all of our many many questions and were so sweet and helpful with our kids! We were there for a while and not once did anyone seem aggravated or annoyed with us, which as a parent comes often in these situations. Could not have had a better experience! This was our initial visit and we are looking forward to starting our treatment today!

This is one of the best places any person could hope to get in chiropractic care. Amazing staff and extremely courteous. I have not been able to go back to finish my treatments as I have been pretty ill but I am looking forward to going back. It is not like going into a doctors office. It is like being around family members.

I have never left a Google review but for this I will. From the moment I walked in until the moment I left I felt at ease. I was super nervous and didn't know what to expect but the staff were very helpful every step of the way. I have bad social anxiety but I felt calm the whole visit. Dr. Sprague was awesome and super out going. The adjustment felt amazing and I left feeling way better than when I walked in. I can't wait to come back to get my next adjustment. Highly recommend for anyone who needs an adjustment.
- Mike

Schilsky Chiropractic has been a great place of healing for getting my strength back after having a back injury. The staff is wonderful and always friendly with a positive attitude. Everyone here is so welcoming and thoughtful and I feel like I have a group of friends checking in on me every time I step through the doors. The office is also very clean, with upbeat music playing instead of the painfully boring elevator music. I recommend Dr. Sprague and his staff to all of my friends and family. My body has never felt better and I will continue coming here for my monthly adjustment to keep me moving and pain free!

Very professional and relaxing I go once a week now, before going I was hurting so bad I didn't want to move. Same with my husband he had a herniated disc and now we are both able to go back to our daily lives and play with our kids again. I went to them before my pregnancy and during my pregnancy and still going to them and it helps my back out so much with that. Me and my husband are still going, and it's been almost 3 years. They are very friendly and help in any way. I have an almost 1 year old they they are basically watching him grow and my other 2 love everybody there. Dr. Sprague is amazing at what he does and will explain things if you don't understand. I recommend them 1000 percent yes, I said a thousand.

I have been receiving care here for about a year. I am a retired Marine officer, suffering from chronic back and knees issues. Since coming here, my quality of life has improved 100%. I've realized that as I get older I need regular Chiropracic care to maintain an active lifestyle... I keep coming back, not only because of the positive results, but also because of the world class customer service that I receive, at every visit! Wonderful Staff and a very positive and welcoming atmosphere. Thank you for taking care of me!
