Dr. SARAH L

Two years ago, I came up limping while working out and running. Turns out, I had developed a labral tear and glute tear to my left hip area, resulting from deterioration which comes along with the aging process. I could no longer run; walked with a limp; and could only sleep on my back due to side sleep pressure to my hips. After six months of negligible relief from going through physical therapy, I walked in to the Active Health Chiropractic Clinic in order to purchase some Ideal Protein dietary product. During the purchase, I asked Dr. Sarah Lawson whether there was anything else that I could do for my hip, short of surgery. She could tell visually that I had a rightward lean and did a quick adjustment to my spine. That took some pressure off of the pain source, and I had less discomfort to the hips when I tried to sleep on my side that night. We started a therapy regimen, which included alternating sessions of ultrasound, electrical stimulation, stretching and alignments. I also started taking supplements, gave up running for long bike rides and walks, and continue to see Dr. Larson for an occasional tuneup. I have been walking pain free/limp free for about a year now. I sleep on my side without any discomfort. I know the labral and glute tears will be with me always, but I can do everything I used to be able to do pre-tear. With the exception of running. That pounding makes me sore for a while, so I think I'll lay off of that. I figure, at age 70, I'm doing well enough. By the way, the Ideal Protein diet took 22 pounds off of me early on, and with Dr. Lawson's guidance, has stayed off. I honestly feel that Dr. Lawson put 20 years back on my life, and I am grateful.

Dr. Sara Lawson is absolutely wonderful! Very Very highly recommended!!! I came in for an ankle issue which is resolved, but back now for hip problems. I appreciate all the different modalities of care - and I am impressed at my healing rate ! Dr. Sara is very conscientious, thorough and caring. Also, Deana and V are extremely wonderful at stretch and massage. I love the vibe of the office- caring , healing, friendly and even a bit fun!!

What a great experience! First time any of us visited a chiropractic clinic for actual treatment, and your welcoming and down-to-earth approach put X at ease immediately. After 2 - 3 treatments he felt so much better. He was thrilled to get back on the field so quickly! Thank you!
