I would like to thank the people at Back to fitness for the care I receive there. I always thought they were concerned about my serious discomfort. They took a lot of pain away from me. The lady that does the massages is really awesome. I would recommend Back to Fitness to anyone. They are all top of the line. Thank you so much,
Howard
I first met Greg and Mavis back in July of 2004 at a benefit concert for my daughter Isabella. Whan an event this was, lots of caring people. Our mutual friend Rhonda introduced us; we hit it off right away. Mavis was a very talented musician and I had a passion for singing.
Dr. Greg was so full of compassion for our desperate situation regarding Isabella's health; he offered to see her and mentioned that he could help our entire family. Not really knowing how messed up my physical structure was, having daily headaches, chronic pain in my neck and low back. My body just had seemed to adjust to the pain.
Overwhelmed by the stress of our situation with our daughter, finances, stress of my wife Jessica being gone all of the time, and me needing to stay home to work and take care of our two boys Brandon and Aaron the pain and headaches were a real challenge for the Pro-Adjuster.
Being consistent like the Dr. said three times a week I saw dramatic results in a few weeks. Not being able to turn my neck sharply to the right without turning my entire upper body has been a problem for me since I was 21 years old. I was in a serious car crash and this became the normal, living with the pain.
From a strenuous working position as a welder favricator throwing iron around 8- 12 hours per day, it takes a real toll on your body. Seven years into my job I ruptured a disc in my L4 L5 sacrum area. Wow what pain I was in. I began looking for a chiropractor to adjust my low back when it would pop out of place. It started out once a month and I was off work for 2-3 days. Then it became 2-3 times per month. I was off work for 6 months on a Workman's Comp claim and they rehabilitated my muscles in my low back to get me back on the job. Months of 3-4 times a week doing stuff that they never really explained to me why I needed to do it. This was very frustrating, so I faked my way through their program just to get back to work.
Finances were rough so I knew I needed to get back out there to make enough money to support my family. Needless to say this wasn't a real good idea. I had worked like this until I met Dr. Greg. Hard work isn't something I try to get out of doing, it's more something I run to and hit head on to accomplish. Keeping this in mind, Dr. Greg and the Pro-Adjuster has had their hands full in my situation.
I've learned that eation right, exercise, taking more time with my family, and being adjusted properly and consistently is the key I was really missing in my life. Dr. Greg and his staff have showed me this.
I also learned that taking Ibuprofen everyday for years and years was extremely unhealthy for my body and that when I quit taking it and with proper and consistent adjustments my body began to naturally heal itself. I also believe that Dr. Greg and his staff are a God send. For 2-3 years I prayed everyday for God to heal my low back and neck. I didn't think the doctors could help me anymore except prescribe heavy medications to me so I relied on my "higher power." God sent Dr. Greg into my life and he's since then helped our entire family.
Not with surface talk of talking down to you like a lot of doctors do but desiring to build a quality and personal relationship with a caring heart to see all his patients not just get through the day, but get on to being healed and healthy. God bless Back to Fitness.

I remember my mom first told me she was going to Dr. Greg for adjustments and he had really helped her with a lot of things she been dealing with. I was kind of skeptical because I just wasn't sure what she was talking about. Then my husband went to a meeting and consultation and he was so excited and told me all about it. It was pretty amazing that I saw a difference in him so quickly. He didn't have his headaches that he had all the time, he was able to turn his neck which he couldn't do before, and I noticed that after he was adjusted his back problems started getting so much better, not near as much pain as he had been having.
I was so amazed at his progress but I truly didn't think it could help me until my first meeting. I remember the first time I came into the offece, totally unsure of what it was all about. They brought me back for xrays and pictures, and I was impressed what all he could find out must from that . I remember how friendly all of them were and I just wanted to come back because they made me feel welcome. After visiting with Dr. Greg we got an idea about what he needed to do to get me back ino alignment. After that I went to the class that you're supposed to go to and I could believe how much it opened my eyes to a whole new area of healing. I love the idea of the body healing itself because that's what it was designed to do.
After I had a few more adjustments, I started seeing a difference right away. I had no more headaches, which I had so frequently before. I also noticed that my leg cramps that I had from when I was little were so much less and were actually starting to go away. I started having more energy and was really looking forward to my adjustments each week.
Then the time came for me to have to make many frequent trips to Portland, at least once a month. The drive up and back was very hard on me having to take my daughter to Doernbecher Children's Hospital, along with the added stress of the situation. I am so grateful to Dr. Greg for helping me through that, as a friend, full of compassion and kindness. I remember many times I would pull into his office after a long trip. I would be exhausted, stressed, and just about wanting to cry and he would be there waiting with his big smile that says everything's going to be alright. He would give me a big hug, put me in the chair to adjust me, while someone else was playing with Isabella. Five minutes later I would be feeling like I could go out into my world one more time. There were many times that my arms would be hurting so bad, and my back from sitting so long and after he would adjust me I would feel incredibly better. I remember him always saying that he was here for us and we were going to make it. He doesn't know it but that meant so much to me to help get through on more week.
We started sending our boys in to see him about onve a month. He would adjst them, they still look forward to it because they knew they would feel better and more energized. I could not believe the difference in them, especially their energy level. They were dealing with so much stress along with us about Isabella and that really helped them to do so much better. I can't remember the last time Aaron had an ear infection, which he was getting so often before the adjustments. Every \year around cold season I see Dr. Greg for Aaron's asthma.
One of the biggest things Dr. Greg has helped me with is my back. I was having to carry around my daughter all the time because when she was on dialysis for two years she didn't walk or hardly move. When she was in her spica cast when she was a year old, she couldn't walk or move, so I carried her around plus the weight of that very heavy body cast. Dr. Greg said it's no wonder that my back is having so much strain. He said there was no way my husband could've handled it because he said it would be like Shane carrying around 30 pounds of wieght all day and night long. That's what my back and body was going through. His adjusting me helped me continue to be able to carry her around without killing my back. I can't explain how it works I just know that I am living proof that it does work. Having the Pro-Adjuster in our lives has been one of the biggest blessings God could give us.
I was able to tell others about it, and now he's helping mine and my husband's family. I still talk about it to everyone I see, because it's been that life changing for me. I truly don't know what I would do without Dr. Blanchfill and the whole team, I appreciate so much their personal and professional relationship with every patient. They truly are our family and we love them for all they are, all they do to help people lead better lives and they've done for us.
I encourage anyone to try it for themselves, it will change you in great ways, for the better, and you will be much healthier.

The first time I took my daughter Isabella in to see Dr. Greg she was pretty sick and fragile. I remember that he used this machine that adjusted her right behind her ear. It was nice because it wasn't scary for her and it didn't hurt. She was pretty used to doctors poking and prodding her, so this was a nice change. We were fortunate to have Dr. Greg be able to adjust because she was not able to have a lot done to her because of her frail little body. We had to be careful whatever methods we used on her.
I have brought her to see him for ear infections. I remember soon after her kidney transplant when she was actually starting to feel so much better I started having her adjusted more. I noticed a dramatic increase in her energy level! She went from not moving at all all day, to moving constantly and having so much life!
Now, she will go in to be adjusted and she just loves to sit in that chair, she'll put her little head down on the back of the seat, and let Dr. adjust her without even moving. It's really helped her become less aftaid of doctors which is a big blessing.
The first couple years of her life she was really sick, and now she has had a successful transplant. She's doing realy well. I take her to see Dr. Greg for her ashma also. She is just like a whole different kid now, and it's so great to see the difference.

I have made several trips to chiropractors in years gone by. I have been to Back to Fitness for just a few weeks. I love the Prod-Adjuster. It is easy and works great! Adjusting your body should not require hours to do it. This doesn't. I just love it. Get well, I'm going to... and I'll be 80 in december!

I've heard of chiropractors and for the most part people either love them or they don't. Well, I love Back to Fitness Chiropractic in Sutherlin. There are times that I barely walk in there and I'm still a little stiff leaving but much better and better yet as the day goes on. My lower back was out of alignment prior to my first visit; then a week later I got into a car accident which gave me whiplash. There have been times that I did not need adjusting because my body held up from the previous time. I am proud of that fact. They check progress on how well you are coming along. The staff greets you face to face by calling your name- real personable. When I'm not feeling "up to par" I go see Dr. Blanchfill and all in all I feel better. When I get my massage from Tanya, I can feel my sore muscles move and loosen up even ones that I did not know I had. My friends and I go there and I have heard of their progress from them as well. With the help of Dr. Blanchfill and his team, I am better on a regular basis and off my pain pills, Thank you,

I'm so excited to have this opportunity to give my testimonial and especially to say "Thank you" to Dr. Greg and all of the wonderful staff here at BACK TO FITNESS CHIROPRACTIC.
At first I was more than a little skeptical because as a young teenager I had a very bad experience with a chiropractor. After having everthing explained to me, having my x-rays, and having my initial adjustment I was SOLD! I began having treatments three times a week almost one year ago. What a difference you have made in my life!
Whenever I first started coming to see Dr. Greg I was using a lift-type innersole in my shoes because the hip pain was so intense without them. Within about three weeks I threw away the innersoles and haven't needed them since.
Dr. Greg started me on an exercise program three times a week and although I've only lost a few pounds, I have lost inches. And for me that is very important! I'm excited to get rid of those inches!! Yippee!
I'm so grateful to have you, Dr. Greg and all of the staff in my weekly routine. What a blessing you have all been to me. I would, and I do, recommend your chiropractic sevices to those who have problems with their backs, their weight, allergies and sinus problems.
The office atmosphere is more like family than doctor-client. Thank you all so much for what you have done for me and my family.
You know, you can't have a testimonial without having a test, and this test has been a 100% winner!

I began appointments with Back to Fitness in March, 2007. My recent problem began last september when I was suspected of having had a heart attack. Tests showed no heart damage and it was concluded that I had Pleurisy. I was given anti-inflammatory and antibiotics for more than three months.
However, I found no relief for the pains in my back, shoulder and ribcage; some rather sever. That was the situation when I came to Dr. Greg. X-rays showed my spine bowed and badly out of alignment.
The adjustments have been performed for two to three weeks. Most all of my back pains are gone. I am able to exercise again and sleep all night.
The healing has also been aided my deep-tissue massages that I received here.
I can't praise Back to Fitness enough for the relief and comfort I have been given, and continue to receive. Thank you,

I started coming to Back to Fitness on a workers compensation claim for a pinched nerve in my back in November 2006. Dr. Blanchfill started having me do core strength training at the beginning of the new year. While I had already lost approximatley 20 lbs. before starting this, I've since lost almost an additional 10 lbs. and approximately 3 inches and have dropped 2 sizes.
I have more strength and stamina at work and at home. I feel much better about myself and practicall have a new wardrobe in my closet, fitting into clothes that I haven't been able to wear for years. This is actually the first time I've really gotten into working out and enjoy it.
Thank you so much for helping me make less of me,

Hi, I'm Dana. I've been coming tro see Dr. Greg since the end of August 2006 and let me tell you, it's the best thing I've ever done for myself. Not only do I feel healthier, but I feel better mentally too. My wife use to call me the Grinch (no heart) and say I looked like I could chew up her cast iron skillet like it was a marshmallow. Now, I feel healthier, stronger and a lot less stressed. I'm happy now because I don't hurt anymore. I don't think I knew how much I hurt and how bad I really felt until starting with Dr. Greg. My whole outlook on life in general is 100% better now.
So I'll tell you if you want to feel and be healthier and be at the top of your game, you need to see Dr. Greg and his staff and let them help you improve the quality of your life.

Howdy, My name is Lela. I have been a patient of Dr. Greg for 7 years now. I was one hurting unit before I found the Doc and was told by other doctors I would be in a whellchair if I did not have back surgery. I have degenerative disc disease and have seen chiropractors my whole life. When I first came to see the Doc my discs were in stage 2 of degeneration and declining fast. I honestly believe that without the Doc's care I would be in a wheelchair by now. I am still in stage 2 but I am stronger. It has taken a lot of work, dedication and commitment (but what doesn't that will improve your quality of life?).
The Doc worked with me like I was his only patient and even 7 years later he still makes me feel that way. I will never give him up nor will I ever give up on myself. I thank you doc for you commitment, dedication and your passion to helping others! Because of you and your wonderful staff, Iwalk taller, straighter and stronger!Thank you with all my heart!
Lela
