" I was dizzy for a year. I went to every doctor, neurologist, chiropractor, and physical therapist recommended to me with no results. I did cardiac tests, EKG, stress tests, CT scans and nobody could tell me what was wrong. I was referred by a friend to check out Taylor Creek PT as he had very good results eliminating his dizziness. On the first day, I was able to experience more relief in the first two hours than I did the entire previous year. I am a retired physician’s assistant from the military and in Albion. I understand the medical field, but I had no idea there could be such a simple fix to my problem that did not require medication or surgery. I was to the point that I couldn’t work anymore. I used to do construction, run the Albion locker, work outdoors cutting trees, etc. I couldn’t stand on a step stool. I couldn’t walk across the yard to the house without getting dizzy. When working outside, I found it difficult to make it back to my house because the dizziness was so strong. I was fatigued all the time and couldn’t get anything accomplished during the day. Now I have the energy that I haven’t had in 10 years. To me it is a miracle because I was told by doctors that I would just have to live with it. There was nothing I could do. I have had so much relief in just a few weeks that I’ve had to tell my health care providers that they need to know about this Postural Restoration™ therapy and how much it can change a person’s life. I don’t know where I would be without Taylor Creek and this unique approach to treat dizziness."

"Left shoulder pain for 5 years. Neck tension that was making it impossible to hold my head up by suppertime. Headaches were daily. MRI of my neck was normal. Facial pain and jaw popping. I felt off balance. Ears were full and ringing. Medications were not relieving the headaches. Besides addressing all these symptoms, my goal was to carry the Big Bang Boom flag over my head in the Fourth of July Parade. Now I’m headache free and have full use of my arms without pain! I no longer have facial pain or jaw popping. Dizziness is 75% gone but I’ve had days without dizziness at all. I can go upstairs without being winded. I have more energy at work and home. In the past, I had EXTREME fatigue all over my body. I would have to sit often because of the fatigue. Now I can stand longer at work and home. I used to lay down nightly because I couldn’t hold up my head. Those days are gone. I knew all these symptoms were connected but I did not know how to “fix” it myself. Thanks to Taylor Creek PT and using Postural Restoration, I now have my old self back."

"At the age of 26, my eye burned. I would experience a pulling sensation in my right eye. The head pressure and eye strain felt like the worst headache. I had multiple symptoms that had my physicians confused. My symptoms included ear pain, pain at the base of my skull, right eye pain, weakness on the ENTIRE right side of my body and extreme tightness in my right shoulder. I had balance issues because my right leg always felt weak. I was dizzy, stumbling and couldn’t walk normal. I had extreme fatigue and lack of energy.

One morning I woke up with severe burning in my eye. I then lost vision in my right eye for 3 weeks. I was scared. I didn’t know what was going on. I could not feel the ground under my feet. My foot felt like it was floating. After a 5-hour MRI and multiple scans and tests, the doctors stated could possibly have early onset multiple sclerosis.

Everything changed coming to Taylor Creek PT. After my first appointment, Kristi gave me a temporary appliance for my teeth because I’m a clencher. I was able to take it home with me and needed to use it with my home exercises. In the past, I had tried everything recommended to me and there were no results. This was the first time I had a glimpse of hope after my first appointment at Taylor Creek. I could walk. I could feel the floor. I had my balance back. The pressure in my head and eye went away – as long I was using my temporary appliance and followed the home exercise plan.

I honestly feared I was going to lose my passions in life. I am now able to function like a normal 26-year-old. I hate to think what life could have been if I had not found Taylor Creek. I’m able to live my life to the fullest and enjoy everyday pain free. "

Bob presented with constant tinnitus since last fall. His ear ringing was best described as 1,000 crickets in a room. All day, every day. The ringing was more noticeable in a quiet room and worse while trying to sleep at night. Bob was referred to Taylor Creek Physical Therapy by his ENT. On his first day of therapy, he presented with lack of molars on one side of his mandible. We encouraged Bob to move forward with his dentist’s plan to correct the lack of molars he had been without for 10+ years. Once the dental work was in place, Bob was able to progress with his Postural Restoration therapy and experience decreased frequency and intensity of his tinnitus. He had amazing results after 8 visits and is ‘mindful’ of how to sit, stand and sleep to maintain his body’s position to support the head and neck. Without the expertise of his dentist, this gentleman would not be able to successfully navigate through his therapy and change the tinnitus in his ear. He has days where he barely notices the tinnitus. Evenings in a quite setting are pleasant without 1,000 crickets in the room.

Dizziness and Migraines for 8 months: The first time it happened I fell out of bed and onto the floor. Then I experienced episodes of severe dizziness at least once a week that would last up to 3 hours. The head pressure was unbelievable. I would have nauseating headaches. The dizziness was paralyzing. I couldn’t move or leave the chair. I would sweat so bad that it felt like I took a shower with my clothes on. I was soaked in sweat. The nausea made me vomit. It was hell. I would never wish that on my worst enemy. I didn’t have a normal life because I lived in fear that I would have another attack of dizziness. Something was wrong with my eyes. I couldn’t clearly read the newspaper, my phone or a book. Scrolling on my phone or through the channels on the TV would make me very dizzy. I couldn’t turn my head while walking. I had look straight ahead. If I used my peripheral vision, turned my eyes to the side or looked up, I felt like I was going to fall. I lived in a tunnel. I had light sensitivity. I never had the lights on in the room. There were times I had to be under a blanket as my wife drove me to my appointment. I couldn’t ride in the car at night because of the sensitivity to headlights. I had to quit driving. The first session at Taylor Creek, I had a headache that was 8/10. I left my appointment with 0/10. I couldn’t believe it. I don’t have headaches anymore. I was able to read clearly at my first PT session. I could walk and turn my head without feeling so off balance. With each session I could see improvement in my balance, my head pressure and my overall mood. I was back to driving after my 4th visit. Today is my 9th visit and I am mowing the yard, driving a tractor, pulling weeds in the garden, I can read clearly – and the biggest improvement is my confidence. I don’t live in fear of having another attack. I was recommended by two different friends to come to Taylor Creek. This is vastly different than the previous physical therapy I’ve tried for my dizziness because my symptoms would return but this Postural Restoration therapy worked!
