Two months ago I rushed to the ER with numbness and pain in my left arm and leg. The doctors could not determine what was causing it and sent me home with pain medication. I went to see Dr. Stirton that afternoon and after an examination he determined I had some issues around my lower back area. One adjustment and the pain and numbness went away. Between getting education on daily stretches and weekly to bi-weekly therapy and adjustments my pain and numbness hasn’t returned to the intensity of that day. I highly recommend a visit to Dr. Stirton if you’re experiencing pain and discomfort. He’s professional, friendly and will work with you to help suggest a customized stretching approach that you can do at home to help manage any issues you may have. His treatment plan pricing is also affordable and reasonable (even without health insurance for chiropractic care).
I have been seeing Dr. Stirton since November of 2017. When I first starting going to Winters Family Chiropractic (WFC) I came in with bad Heart Burn, which was making me experience nearly constant nausea. I have since not had any instances of the nausea that had plagued me for 2 years previously. I find myself more relaxed, more flexible and better able to function after being seen at WFC. I would definitely suggest anyone in the area looking for a friendly, professional, experience, that is dealing with any joint issues go to WFC. Dr. Stirton truly helped me get to the point where I could do more of the activities I had wanted to do, but had been unable before due to health. My Favorite Chiropractic experience is with Dr. Stirton. He definitely helped to put me back together and continues to make sure I stay in the physical condition I should be in.
I’ve experience first hand that getting adjusted can make you a better person. I’ve suffer many pain physically and mentally from a car accident years ago. Ever since then, I thought it was normal to not be able to sleep and continue to have pains shooting through my body. Doc Jim changed everything after being treated by him for several months. Don’t give up after one adjustment, make sure you go back to all your appointments. Make it to his office for your adjustment as instructed and you won’t regret it. I’m honestly telling you from strictly personal experience. Start caring about how your body works and you’ll quickly see the impact being adjusted can have!
Awesome very caring doctor! Fantastic adjuster. I always feel amazing after my adjustment!!!!

More than just an adjustment. Dr. Stirton helped so much with my shoulder pain and encouraged full body rehabilitation. I have 30 + years in my career with the body aches and pains to go with it. He has made it so that I can enjoy what I do for a few more years without the chronic pain.
I truly appreciate having Dr. Stirton in town. He is very professional, personable, knowledgeable, and helpful in helping me to achieve my health and strength. I encourage all of those who have any health issues to go and see the good doctor.
