I was in some of the worst pain I had ever been in. I didn't realize 5 weeks earlier when I fell and broke my ankle I had wrenched my hip and back. Family Chiropractic of Kennebunk not only got me in as quickly as possible. they treated me with the care and help I needed. After just a couple visits the pain started becoming less and less. I look forward to going each time to continue to heal and feel better.

My wife has been seeing Dr. Pete for almost 2 years. We've recently upgraded to the family plan. My wife, my 3 kiddos, and myself really enjoy seeing Dr. Pete. He is a very knowledgeable, jovial, and kind person who truly cares about our family. You'd be hard to find a better or more professional chiropractor. Thank you for everything you do for our family!

I've gone to chiropractors for thirty years, and I know the benefits to chiropractics. I just started going to see Dr Pete and already, I feel like a new woman. My lower back had finally had enough, and I ended up missing a whole week of work (unpaid). I'm now able to move without pain (mostly) and I will be back at work tomorrow. Aside from helping me with my pain, Dr Pete is so friendly and professional. Thank you so much for your help!

Pain and discomfort are hard things to live with. They hinder work, sleep, and every moment of your life and all you want is relief. I've lived with these for so long because going to a professional (physicians, Dentists, ect.) for relief is usually met (in my experience anyway) without any degree of compassion towards eliminate agony with the true immediacy one would think they would find or even wish for. Months after a bad fall I went into Dr. Pete's office just hoping that I'd find a modicum of relief, maybe even to be able sleep through the night.

First appointment was the examination as well as x-rays. The second was the discussion of a treatment plan and the first adjustment. That night was the first good nights rest I've had in so long. Every adjustment has made a noticable difference in my life. There are few people or businesses that I hold in such high regard. It is in my humble opinion that you would be hard pressed to find more compassionate, intelligent, knowledgeable Chiropractors. They are simply incredible.

Super knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. Flexible scheduling. Dr. Pete has been taking care of my family for over a year and my kids love to come each week. Since beginning care my son sleeps better and my daughter no longer complains of chronic headaches. I work on my feet every day and Dr. Pete's adjustments help tremendously with the aches and pains that i used to get. I highly recommend Family Chiropractic to anyone who is interested in improving their health naturally.
