Patient Testimonials
My name is Jessica and I must tell you about the miracle of Chiropractic Care. About a year ago I was a true skeptic. I believed in the corrupt circle of medicine and pain relievers. One day I could not get to sleep and nothing was helping. It was pain, crippling pain, in my back, legs, chest, and neck. The pain was so bad I could barely breathe. That was the first time and it was very scary.
Now, I know what you're thinking.... Take ADVIL!! Well, the problem with that was I had been living with similar pain for the prior 5 years. So as you can imagine Advil and I were very good friends. So close, it wasn't cutting it anymore. And in this circumstance I kept thinking to myself "I have to go to the ER, nothing else is going to work, there must be something extremely wrong with me." After a sleepless night by 7:30 am I had had enough and , yes.... I called my mom! When she saw the agony I was in, she got me ready to go to the hospital. At the same time my roommate woke up and and as she had been telling me for years I needed more than a temporary fix. I needed a chiropractor. And she knew just the one for the job, Dr. Sweet. Now I has to tell you it wasn't that I didn't think chiropractors worked for some people, but the fear of a stranger moving my bones and trusting him not to break them was well beyond something I could grasp, let alone, let happen. Hesitantly, but in immense pain and knowing doctors hadn't helped me before I went.
When I arrived I was immediately made to feel welcome and in caring hands, from Dee Jay's motherly voice and Dr. Sweet's gentle hands, they gave me hope. It was Dr. Sweet's diagnosis that I had several subluxations and it was correctable! I hadn't believed them until the good doctor adjusted me for the first time in my life. I entered his office as a 28-year-old cripple and left comforted and walking on my own, just a little sore from the neglect of the people I had trusted to heal me, my old doctors. Since this experience Advil and I are a thing of the past! And with continued adjustments from Dr. Sweet and my own life changes I am happy to say I have not taken any pain medications since this wonderful family came into my life. There are not enough thank yous that I could give to Chiropractic Care, they are now and will be forever family to me. I am forever grateful.
Thank you infinity!

I had suffered from disabling pain in my back and shoulders for years, and by 2001 I was in a state of constant pain that affected every area of my life. I couldn't sleep for more than 45 minutes at a time because of pain which would wake me and make me get up and kneel on the floor with my upper body on the couch until the pain lessened enough to allow me to lie down again for another short period of rest. I took huge doses of both prescription and non-prescription Ibuprofen, and other pain medications daily just trying to get enough relief to be able to sleep. At a local pastors event I was in visible pain, another pastor and his wife told me about Dr. Sweet and his remarkable ministry in Petaluma.
They told be about his practice and that I need Chiropractic Care. Being open-minded, I said, "I don't believe in chiropractic..." My friends got me in between them and emphatically told me "you need to try this- it works", so I called and made my first appointment with Dr. Sweet the following Monday. I was enrolled in the back clinic at Kaiser at the time, and seeing one of their Physical Therapists, and I had an appointment there the same day as my first one with Dr. Sweet, so when I saw that I was running late getting back to Petaluma, I called Dr. Sweet's office to say I wouldn't be able to make my appointment that day ("saved by the 101 traffic!" I thought) Fortunately, Dr. Sweet's chiropractic assistant, who answered the phone, was having none of my excuses... "we are here until 6pm, you can come later" she said, so I surrendered- after all, I had told Pat and Judy (the pastor and his wife) that I would go see him, so I showed up for my appointment, however reluctantly.
That day in March 2001, Dr. Sweet ran his knowledgeable hands over my aching back, with his fingers knowing exactly where I hurt, without me saying a word. He did what he does, and then asked me to come back two more times that week. I remember that Saturday night, after my third adjustment, because for the first time in a really long time, I slept, really slept, deep refreshing peaceful sleep that had been absent from my life for so long.
As the years have passed, my much used (and abused) body has continued to age, but I know now that pain is not a natural state for me to live in, and the good doctor (for that is what he is) continues to improve the quality of my life. Thanks to his gifts, skill and continued ministry to me, I am able to live pain free most of the time. I say, "Thank you, God, for Dr. Sweet!"

For the past 7 months I have received care from Dr. Sweet and since I started care, I have noticed a great improvement in my health, for starters (I was suffering from frequent severe migraine headaches and since I had not even felt what some will call a common mild headache. Also the chronic tinnitus (ringing in the ears) has improved greatly.
Prior to this I had never visited a chiropractor before due to ignorance on my part of what this practice was all about, after my experience I refer others and told my story to those that have noticed a difference in my every day activity levels.
