Twenty years ago a friend referred me to Dr. Tuttle, which was life-changing for me because when I first entered his doors I could barely walk and was in intense pain every moment of every day.\r
\r
My spine issues started with a bulging L-5 disk, which my surgeon repaired with a discectomy. Two years later, a truck ran into my car, which sent me back to the hospital with ruptured L-3 and L-4 disks. My surgeon advised me to avoid further surgery because he would have to fuse my disks, which would result in very limited mobility. For a woman who enjoys daily exercise, travel and outdoor sports, the inability to bend or move freely would have been unbearable. That was when I was introduced to Dr. Tuttle.\r
\r
During my first visit, he told me Chiropractic would improve my mobility and help diminish the pain, and that is exactly what happened. Within two months, I could walk with little pain, and within four months, I was back into my daily workout. Now, twenty years later, at age 62, I still drop in every two weeks for an adjustment and always leave feeling better than when I entered his office. When I tweak a knee, a shoulder or a hip, or wake up with a painful migraine, I see Dr. Tuttle first because I know if he can’t fix it nobody can.\r
\r
I value Dr. Tuttle's knowledge as a Chiropractor and an athlete, the unwavering positive energy he greets me with every time I walk through his doors at 6:30 in the morning, and the care and time he spends with every adjustment. The fact that I am mobile at my age still surprises me because I know things could have gone differently. \r
\r
I sincerely appreciate Dr. Tuttle for all he has done to keep me upright and healthy. I wouldn’t drive from Auburn to Seattle and home again through rush hour traffic for anyone else.\r
