Dear Dr. Mattingly,
Thank you for making me a part of the chiropractic family at your office. I know that you are really going to help me and I am truly thankful for that. I really believe that chiropractors help people, and I wish that everyone could realize this. If only they could learn what I have learned at your workshop, it really made me understand a lot better. Again, thank you, I am very glad you’re my chiropractor.

We brought our son in to see Dr. Mattingly because he had a bed wetting problem. He would wet the bed every night, sometimes twice a night. We tried to control his liquid intake before bed but it didn’t help. He has had this problem since we potty trained him a year ago. Due to the bed wetting, everybody’s sleep was interrupted. He would wake up wet and I would have to change him and he would sleep on the couch. He had two adjustments and we noticed that he was no longer waking up wet. Chiropractic care is great and we have no more bed wetting problems.

I came to Dr. Dusty for help getting off all the medications I was on. While that is going well I recently discovered something else. For the last 15 years my third toe on each foot was been numb. I've gone to several medical doctors over the last 15 years and have mentioned it to all, to no avail. Recently, I scratched my toe and felt it. After 15 years of numb toes I finally have complete feeling in both toes. Thanks, Dr. Mattingly.
I worked at a glass factory for 40 years and stood on cement floors. For 35 years I have had pain in my feet, especially the right foot. I had seen other doctors over the years and tried several remedies for the pain, including orthotics for my shoes, but nothing ever helped much. Walking for two or three blocks was difficult and painful!
I filled out a survey that Dr. Mattingly was conducting for Pressure Point Therapy. I began treatment, which has included Pressure Point Therapy, electric muscle stimulation and chiropractic adjustments, and I have had the best results. I now can enjoy walking and I am looking forward to doing some traveling. I started seeing Dr. Mattingly three times a week at first and then less frequently as I began to improve. Now I am on a maintenance program and see him just once a month, or whenever I feel a need to see him more often.
After seeing the success that I has having with treatment, my husband also decided to start chiropractic care for his neck, shoulders and lower back. We have both been pleased with the good results that we have experienced.

When I began chiropractic care, I had been having migraine-type headaches since I was about ten years old. They would be so bad I would stay in a dark room for hours. The headaches would cause severe nausea. All I could do was cry and hope that would ease the pain. I took Tylenol by the tons to try to help ease the pain. I was told by a medical doctor that I would eventually outgrow this.
I went to a workshop at Mattingly Chiropractic earlier this year and began working there shortly after. I began treatment on a regular basis and soon my headaches became less frequent and if I do have one now it is very minor compared to what they had been. I also started taking nutritional supplements recommended by Dr. Mattingly. I have never had more energy or felt better. It has really helped with PMS and mood swings.

I came to see Dr. Mattingly with pain and numbness due to a work related injury which caused pain in my shoulder and numbness starting from my ring and pinky fingers running all the way up through my arm, shoulder, and neck. I suffered for one month before coming to Dr. Mattingly. I had seen my general practitioner and had a nerve test done. They wanted to perform surgery to remove this pinched nerve. I was taking muscle relaxers; I took one kind for six days and another kind for one month. I was also taking an abundance of Tylenol, switching to Tylenol-3 and eventually Ibuprofen. The pain was so bad that I’d work my scheduled eight hour shift and then come home and lay down on the couch and the kids would do my household chores for me. I would sleep and cry a lot. It hurt just to sit. I had to give up my hobbies that I enjoyed doing like bowling, crocheting and needlepoint.
After just three weeks of adjustments and ultra-sound, the numbness went out of my ring finger and arm. The pain had lessened so much that I quit taking the muscle relaxers and was taking less Tylenol and Ibuprofen. After six weeks of adjustments on my wrist and elbow, my wrist became more flexible. Within one month of adjustments on my neck I had more range of motion. When the pain had lessened I became a happier person, easier to get along with, and could do my daily activities and hobbies. I believe one hundred percent in chiropractic care, because it helped me feel better, function better at work and I didn’t have to have surgery! I even referred my daughter to Dr. Mattingly after she was involved in a car accident. I’d recommend chiropractic care for everyone.

When I came to see Dr. Mattingly I had Bell's Palsy, which is a temporary paralysis of the muscles on one side of the face. My right eye would not shut correctly and the right side of my face felt strange. My symptoms started one week before I came to see Dr. Mattingly. I went to see an optometrist first, and he referred me to Dr. Mattingly.
I had some improvement after the first adjustment. After just two and a half weeks of adjustments, I am feeling 100 percent better. Chiropractic care has helped me a lot. I no longer have Bell's Palsy symptoms and I feel 100 percent again. I feel comfortable referring my friends to Dr. Mattingly.

I was listening to the radio one day and someone was on there talking about pressure point therapy and its benefits. I was driving along in my car and at the time I was in severe pain and thought, "Boy, I sure would like to try that pressure point therapy." As I said that to myself the announcer said, "If you'd like to try it out, see Dr. Dustan Mattingly for a free pressure point therapy session." Then he gave the number and I wrote it down and called the next day on Monday.
I tell you the truth when I say that since the day I made that appointment and came to see the doctor, my life has not been the same. Before I came in I was a 40ish wife and mom, feeling like I was going on 80 with all the pain I was having. But now I feel better that I took the first step to get help. Now I feel 20 again. I'm practically pain-free and loving life and all it has to offer once again. Thank you, Dr. Mattingly, for giving me my life back.

I attended one of the introductory sessions Dr. Mattingly offers. At the end of the session, I approached Ryan, who does the pressure point therapy, with an ear problem I had been having for several weeks. The ear had been feeling "clogged" and I had thought the trouble was in my hearing aide. After finding no problem with the device, Ryan applied pressure point therapy to the affected ear and worked his magic until I felt relief. Viola! The ear was totally unclogged thanks to Ryan's Magic Fingers. This event convinced me of the benefit I could gain through Dr. Mattingly and Ryan's therapy. I am a happy patient!

When I began treatment with Dr. Mattingly, I had severe pain in my arm. I had heard Dr. Mattingly’s radio advertisement and decided to call for an appointment. He used Pressure Point Therapy and other therapies (ultrasound and electric muscle stimulation) to help heal the nerves and muscles in my arm. Now my arm works as good as ever.
