What My Patients Say

“I drive an hour to see Dr. Howie! Thats how incredible he is. I recently had the pleasure of visiting and it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by a friendly and professional staff. Dr. Howie took the time to thoroughly assess my condition and explain the treatment plan in detail, making sure I understood each step. The adjustments were precise and effective, significantly reducing my pain and improving my mobility. I appreciate the personalized care and the holistic approach that he provides. I highly recommend to anyone in need of chiropractic care!”

Anshanika

“Dr Howie is the perfect combo of a consummate professional and exceptionally friendly and approachable person who makes you feel at ease immediately. I’d trust him with any health matter and consider him one of the best in the industry.”

Amy

“My favorite thing about Dr. Howie is that the chiropractic adjustment is only a fraction of the value you get for each visit. The real value is gaining the knowledge and mindset on how you can actually improve your body in the long term, rather than just chasing temporary relief.

His program is designed to make sure each client moves from a “corrective” plan to a “maintenance” plan, and I can honestly say that I’ve never worked with another doctor who is more passionate and excited to improve your health at a fundamental level. Whether you are a competitive athlete, have bad posture, or just tired of being stiff, Dr. Howie is your guy!”
