Testimonials
Starting Chiropractic treatments (adjustments, herbs & acupuncture)
with Dr. Olson Many years ago was one of the very best things
I ever did! I continue to see Dr. Olson on a regular monthly basis
to maintain the improvements we've made in my overall health.
Myasthenia Gravis is a muscle weakness disease and when I began
seeing Dr. Olson, I was experiencing many muscle weaknesses. Depression
was also one of my main difficulties.
Dr. Olson told me when I began treatment that he felt he could
bring me to approximately 80% improvement in my condition. The
improvements have come steadily along, despite other health interferences.
It's with a great sense of gratitude to Dr. Olson and his staff
for their help that I share my testimony. My health has improved
greatly since I began chiropractic treatments with Dr. Olson.

I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis in 1998. This was after
a stress-filled three years of being a caregiver for my mother
who has Alzheimer's disease. I became sick with flu like symptoms
for a period of 2-3 months. The joints of my fingers and hands
began swelling and caused intense pain. I made the rounds of M.D.'s
whose prescription's side effects were unacceptable for me. A
doctor of rheumatology wanted to have me use a cancer drug to
control the swelling. I did not take the drug because of the serious
side effects. By this time all my joints began to swell. I had
to find a better way to get relief from the pain. I read an article
in Alternative Medicine Magazine about JMT treatment for arthritis.
This was what I was hoping for. Dr. Olson's name was listed as
a practitioner of JMT.
When I started going to Dr. Olson for the JMT treatment I could
hardly walk, go up or down a step, or really move any joint in
my body without great pain. After several months of JMT treatment
by Dr. Olson I am happy to say I can walk without pain, I can
put gas in my car and do more things around the house than I have
done in a long time. I am so thankful and blessed that I have
found treatment from Dr. Olson and his chiropractic staff I just
wish more people knew about this alternative way to achieve better
health.
Thank you,
- Linda M.

While talking with my Aunt about my arthritis symptoms she recommended
that I find a doctor who was N.A.E.T. Certified in my area as
she had had remarkable and amazing results with her treatments
for candida. So I went to the website (http://www.naet.com) on
the Internet she told me about and found Dr. Olson in the St.
Louis area which is two hours each way from my home.
For years I had suffered with muscle and joint pain with extreme
stiffness especially in my back, ankles, and hands. Some mornings
I would be so stiff that I would have to stand in a hot shower
just to get some mobility back enabling me to function for the
day. My ankles would make snap-crackle-pop noises while walking
and especially while going downstairs. The joints on my hands
are enlarged like my Grandmother's and they were swollen, reddish-purple,
and looked like I had been in a fist fight with a brick wall which
is what they felt like most of the time. I could no longer open
the simplest jars and I use to be the one everyone brought the
jars to that they couldn't open. I was taking Excedrin's, acetaminophens,
and occasionally ibuprofens like they were candy just to get some
relief.
After my initial consultation visit with Dr. Olson he recommended
JMT treatments and gave me an article to read entitled "Reversing
Arthritis with the Jaffe-Mellor Technique" found in the November
2000 issue of the Alternative Medicine magazine to read. The rest
is history; I started my JMT treatments in March of 2002.
I am currently free of pain; my hands are not red and swollen
anymore; my ankles no longer make noise while walking and they
are not nearly as noisy going downstairs; I have more flexibility
and mobility in all of my joints; I can do things that I haven't
been able to do in years; and I have not had to take pain relievers
for my arthritis since midsummer 2002. It's wonderful!
It feels good just to feel good again from the inside out. I
will forever be thankful and grateful to Dr. Olson for recommending
the JMT treatment for my arthritis. The quality of my life has
dramatically and significantly improved. I highly recommend JMT
treatments to anyone who is suffering and gladly spread the good
word when the opportunity arises."
Sincerely and with Best Regards,
- Anita V.

When I first came to Olson Chiropractic, it was extremely difficult
for me to even get out of bed. My neck, shoulders and back hurt
so much that just sitting up and moving was an effort. After each
treatment, it seems to get easier and easier. I fell more comfortable
and have more mobility.
Dr. Olson treats the whole body, inside and out. He helps me
to be congruent on all levels. He is very perceptive and caring.
Dr. Olson really listens to what I have to say.
On my first visit, I told Dr. Olson that I felt that my body was
talking to me, but no one was listening. I had seen other doctors
and told them what I was experiencing, but they dismissed me as
if I were imagining my symptoms. Dr. Olson just smiled and told
me that I should always listen to my body because it is talking
to me. I feel that I have finally found a doctor who cares and
is able to help me to reach and maintain optimum health.

The book, classes, and talks are a real eye-opener. The footbath
is very interesting, and I feel a lot calmer. The people working
here are some of the nicest people you can ask for.

has been both a physical healer and an emotional healer for all
of us. His gentle nature and uplifting spirit have truly been
inspirational in causing me to evaluate my life-in priorities,

because he is in it!

Starting at the front: Diane and Nicole are wonderful. Always
helpful, fun, and just plain nice. What I've seen of Dr. Johnson
is quite positive. I have no qualms about him sharing in my care.
Dr. Olson is on a plane all his own. He is helping and teaching
me to heal my whole self. I've never encountered someone like
him. His wisdom and caring are unique. Even though I'm moving
quite some distance away, I will continue to come to Olson Chiropractic.

Dr. Olson gave great and excellent explanations for his treatment
and good communications with his patient. These make me feel very
confident and comfortable while in and during the treatment process.
He thoroughly understands what he does and gives detailed guidance
to the patient on how to exercise at home which greatly improves
the healing results. Kindness, knowledge, and experience make
his therapy treatment very successful.

Last week after lying down in the evening after my treatment,
I had an uncontrollable urge to keep stretching my legs. My left
leg, which had been stiff and hard for so long, felt great! For
the next couple of days, it felt like I'd never had knee surgery!
Some of the stiffness returned, but not to the previous level.
With further treatment, I expect it to keep improving!

I was really nervous on my first day because I had never visited
a chiropractor. Of course, I was so nervous that I cried. Dr.
Olson made me feel very comfortable and I really like and enjoy
my visits. The staff is very wonderful and treat you like an old
friend.
Dr. Olson and the staff and I have exchanged a number of books
and enjoying talking about them.
I have told my friends about Dr. Olson and how much he helped
me, and I would recommend him to everyone.

I enjoy care at Dr. Olson's office nearly once a week. I don't
come so often because of an ache or pain, or any type of symptom.
I come because Dr. Olson is an extremely special person with great
God-given abilities to serve mankind by giving him a greater awareness
of things both temperal and spiritual. I find this office to be
the perfect place to gain a better perspective of things, as well
as a place to enjoy a side of healing that I have only recently
come to know...emotional and energetic and spiritual. This is
a place of healing and rejuvenation. By sharing this opportunity
with others, I feel that I am extending them help that they can
find nowhere else.

I began treatment with Dr. Olson for joint pain I have been experiencing
since the birth of my daughter. I have met with a handful of doctors
since the pain began. We had been unable to diagnose the problem.
Each doctor I visited wanted me to begin some type of medication-pain
or anti-depressant. I became more frustrated as the years went
by. Dr. Olson came into our lives when the pain was at its worst.
I felt as though I had nothing to lose by giving it a shot. I
initially had a visit and was not quite sure what to expect. His
theories made so much sense, and I was willing to give it a try.
Dr. Olson takes so much time with me. My body seems like a mystery.
He is the first professional that has been able to provide me
with relief from the joint pain. He has given me new perspective
on life and health. I am so grateful for his time and patience
with me.

Everyone in Dr. Olson's office exudes a genuine warmth, so walking
in the door is healing in and of itself. Dr. Olson's 5 part approach,
S.E.N.S.E., has helped me heal on all levels-spiritually, emotionally,
nutritionally, structurally, and energetically. In the past two
months since participating in this program, I have experienced
growth and healing in every facet of my life. When the student
is ready, the teacher appears. It is an honor and a privilege
to be ready to work with such a healing, compassionate, talented,
and knowledgeable teacher as A. Rand Olson.

Today, driving to my appointment I thought I would feel better
if I could just remove the left side of my head. I told Dr. Olson
about this headache and, after placing the needles and before
he even left the exam room, my headache was gone. Driving home
was so much more comfortable than driving here was!
-Karen J.

Dr. Olson has helped me through numerous health problems, including
a boating accident, a blood clot in my leg, and stress! Chiropractic
healing is the way to a healthy life. Chiropractic keeps me feeling
energized and well.
