Introducing Dr. Jacob Lyhne

Dr. Lyhne and his two beautiful daughters! The very first time I visited a chiropractor I knew nothing about the body or why it felt like at the age of seventeen I was moving like a 75 year old. Quite frankly, at the time, I didn't care. All I knew was that my low back was in so much pain that there were days where I could barely stand up straight. I went to every "specialist" that my doctors could refer me to Physical Therapy; the Spine Clinic for pain management (I didn't want the pain 'managed,' I wanted it resolved!); even to the leading sports physician for athletic injuries!

At seventeen I was popping so many anti-inflammatory drugs on a regular basis and STILL felt severe discomfort in my low back. It was time to STOP THE MADNESS! It was nearly impossible for me to compete in the sports that I grew up loving to play, I had trouble sleeping at night which caused me to lose focus while in school trying to learn. This was the critical time in my life where my path in life took a turn. A friend of mine was seeing a chiropractor for low back pain, and it helped her and seeing the other miracles in this doctors office led me to wanting to become a chiropractor myself.

But that was not the defining moment...

It was 10 years later at the age of 27, having continued to neglect what my body was trying to tell me, when finally 2 discs in my low back erupted. It was a pain I had never experienced before: numbness in my left foot, shooting pain down the back of my leg, and a knife-like hot coal sensation in the center of my low back. Oh, and I was stooped forward unable to stand up because if I moved suddenly in the wrong direction my legs dropped from beneath me and I would crash to the ground. Did I mention this lasted for 2 weeks!

Well, it was at that moment that I was introduced to a chiropractor again. It was amazing how he approached my problem and got to the core of the situation, rather than masking it with drugs and pain killers.

Due to this experience, and having attended the most highly acclaimed Chiropractic College in North America, my role as a doctor has been molded by the best in the profession. With the experience of having now practiced for almost 5 years, and having helped hundreds of people with their discomforts, I feel as though my maturity as a chiropractor coupled with my history of severe health problems is what allows our office to help so many people seeking aid in their personal journeys with health and challenges with conventional medicine.

After years of competitive basketball, having played over-seas in Europe, and a severe injury that side-lined me for almost a decade, I decided to embark on the greatest journey which was to learn how to not only heal my own body, but help others create the same miracles with chiropractic.

This is my story of the power that brought me to chiropractic and why I share it with as many people as I can.

Introducing Dr. Julie Dunfield

I first started working for a chiropractor after graduating from college. I needed a job, and my mom was going to a chiropractor for pain, and heard they were hiring.

I was one of their front desk receptionists, and loved the interactions I had with all the patients on a daily basis. My main job duty was to make sure that the patients were directed through the office in a timely fashion to receive their adjustments on a regular basis.

What I noticed in the first several months was amazing.

As I started to get to know people by name, and then their family members as well (who were also getting their spines checked) it dawned on me that chiropractic is a family matter. The doctors in the office were not just checking people for pain, but were preventing symptoms from happening for the parent's little children as well. We were seeing so many kids coming into the practice, and some of these kids had suffered with ear infections, chronic asthma, allergies, stomach problems. What was amazing to hear was that the parents were talking about how their baby no longer is colicky, or that their son no longer suffers from asthma when he plays baseball, or that their daughter no longer gets an ear infection every time she catches a cold at school.

It was miraculous, but true healing was actually taking place before my eyes...not just "relief of pain" which is what my impression of chiropractic had always been.

This position in the chiropractors office started as a job to earn money. It evolved into my passion for wanting to create the same miracles as a chiropractor myself.
