The only thing that keeps me from visiting is that I live outside the US. I watch your videos almost daily. You've opened up my eyes on how the body functions and how things in our body are related. Amazing insight, knowledge and approach. You've even gotten me interested in neurology. It's driving my husband insane! I genuinely believe you should be part of the educational system in schools. Wish I'd known all of this earlier in my life, I would've had a different approach raising my kids. I've started on a Keto/IF lifestyle 3 months ago and I've never felt better! Can't thank you enough

Thank you for posting videos on YouTube! I found you over a week ago and watch your videos daily! I am retired, on a Keto diet and between my family doctor and your advice, I have been able to continue losing weight with the commitment of making it a lifestyle change! You explain things so anyone can understand it!

I've started visiting Dr. Ekberg to improve my overall health. Following Dr. Ekberg's videos and his in-depth knowledge during office visits, I was able improve my overall health validated with full panel blood tests. It's refreshing there are still Dr's out there who truly care about their patients health. Dr. Ekberg is one of those people!

I sought Dr. Ekberg's advice for keto diet, general health, and lifestyle issues. I was thoroughly impressed with Dr. Ekberg's knowledge, level of care, and advice. Dr. Ekberg took the time to review my diet and bloodwork, providing very sound advice and helping me find a path forward. Because I had elevated cholesterol numbers from being on the keto diet, Dr. Ekberg suggested a Coronary artery calcium (CAC) test.
My results came back with "0" across the board, indicating that I have no arteriosclerosis, which validates my diet and lifestyle choices are healthy. I cannot recommend Dr. Ekberg enough to anyone looking to get healthy or stay healthy and understand their bodies.

I have been seeing Dr. Ekberg at Wellness For Life for about a month now. I had a skin issues, anxiety, sleep issues, Thyroid problems and finally feeling much better. I did try to get healthy on my own for about 2 years but never had the results close to what I have after only one month here. Thank you!

I am very pleased with my care from Dr Ekberg. I am doing the nutritional response testing, and am already seeing positive changes with anxiety. My digestive health is improving, and I am seeing that it's possible to reach my goal weight. This holistic approach is what I was looking for to help balance my body and catapult me forward on my health journey. The office is very nice and the staff is friendly and helpful.

I live overseas and I watch Dr. Ekberg's lectures on YouTube. My life has completely changed in just 5 weeks. Dr. Ekberg explains bodily processes in interesting detail and in such a way that anyone could understand. How can we make the necessary changes for good if we don't understand the how and why? Dr. Ekberg's channel is a gift to the world and I thank him for his devotion to the health of his fellow man. If I lived in the US I would make an appointment. America is so blessed to have you! Thanks for sharing your knowledge on YouTube. It means the world to so many.

Dr Ekberg is the BEST Chiroprator ever. I had an accident 20 years ago I did not have any strength on the left side, after just 2 sessions my left side has improved 1000%. I feel much more younger, it's like he gave me back 20 years! I'm also doing the nutritional program and feel more energetic, optimistic and happy. If you don't feel well and looking for answers make an appointment w Dr Ekberg.

I have been coming to Dr. Ekberg for about 6 months now. In that time, he has helped me with numbness and rashes. I had a rash from exposure to poison ivy that lasted for over three months. He diagnosed it as a parasite and after taking the supplements for three days the rash is completely gone! I can't thank him and his staff enough. They not only help me, but three of my daughters as well.

Wellness for Life isnt just a simple adjustment and go. Its a lifestyle. They want to make sure that you feel good, but also learn how to maintain feeling good. Seminars are available on more information about ways to better your health and life. The problems i had were insomnia, back pain, shoulder pain, and neck pains. Ive had these issues for several years and I wasn't sure how to "fix" myself.
The doctor's and staff made me feel welcomed. They were knowledgeable and very kind. They explained their process and came up with a program that would help with my issues. 2 months later, I am feeling the best ive ever felt. I can sleep for more than 5 hours, I no longer have intense back and shoulder pain. I came into this program a knotted up ball of yarn and came out feeling better than ever. Thank you wellness for life for giving me my life back!

If it let me give yall stars youd have 5
I have nothing but good things to say. Dr. Ekberg and Dr. Smith make a great team and the rest of the staff here is amazing. They truly care about wellness and making sure your body works as a whole again! You may think it sounds strange or weird as a method, but it makes sense if you just think about it. Come to a seminar! The supplements and adjustments have made a huge difference for me. Ive struggled with anxiety and neck pain and plantar fasciitis for months (anxiety for years) and after I got off my medication for anxiety I started working on my wellness, but my neck pain and foot pain were a huge obstacle.
My neck pain is nothing like it used to be, it is rare not constant, and I no longer sleep with my foot brace for my plantar fasciitis. For the first time in a long time Im ready to keep going and keep on my journey to get back to natural and lose this weight that pills put on me (100lbs in about 6mo due to Zoloft).
Im excited to get the nutrition aspect going as the next part of my journey.

I had just about given up on chiropractic care when I went to see Dr. Ekberg's. He has been very helpful with his painless approach and I am very relieved that I have his knowledge of the human body to help guide me to the next stage of recovery from pain.

I was a bit skeptical of chiropractors before coming to Dr. Ekberg. He helped me with neck and back pain, but also helped me to realize how stress played a major factor in my overall well being. Dr. Ekberg suggested breathing exercises, change in diet, exercise, positive thinking, and other techniques to help me reduce my stress level and improve my overall condition and morale. He does way more than just pop your neck and back, charge you, and send you on your way. He really seems to care about his patients' well being. His Wednesday free clinics are great as well. I would highly recommend him.

I've had chronic pain for many many years due to JRA. It's been difficult finding a job that I'm able to do because of physical requirements. Dr. Ekberg identified several problems with my diet that were causing added pain. Medical doctors don't do that. He takes care of the whole body in order for you to enjoy living! I highly recommend Wellness For Life Chiropractic before a medical physician. See if he can make the difference you are looking for naturally!

Dr. Ekberg has been seeing me since I first became pregnant with my second daughter. I see him for nutritional checks and chiropractic care. He is truly amazing at what he does. I have now been off my Crohn's medication for 18 months and I am doing great. He teaches you how to fix the underlying problem versus just putting a temporary band aid over the symptoms. He also sees my newborn and has done wonders for her when she got her first cold and ear infection. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to get to the bottom of their health problems.

I am currently a patient of Dr Ekberg and Dr Smith at Wellness for Life in Cumming, GA for 4-5 months now. I am being treated with monthly spinal and hip adjustments as well as nutritional supplements to bring cleansing and allows my body to Return to its wellness state if given the proper nutrition and adjustment, and this is the place to come for just that! They ask how I am feeling at each visit to stay informed and to treat each area of my body needing attention.
But to come here requires a commitment to yourself and to your body to choose this way of treatment. I had a thumb that would not move and was painful and through nutrition and adjustments, my thumb has returned to normal. My hip, neck and upper arms are feeling much better and I know that coming here will not be the usual treatment with meds that have side effects that many doctors prescribe. I just wont take them!!
Natural food supplements are the safe treatment. And you receive a lot of information about health that will keep you on the right track. Come check out Wellness for Life. You will be glad you did and your body will thank you!
