What Our Patients Say
Monica Tews
Patient
"I was referred to Dr. Wes by one of his patients after being diagnosed with bulging disc in my neck from a car accident. Rather than having surgery, I started treatment with him. He was able to treat my disc and minimize my chronic pain after several sessions. He saved me from surgery and gave me hope again. He is extremely knowledgeable and I owe my recovery to him! I highly recommend Waukee Wellness!"

"Went to them for a twisted back. Tried a medical doctor first and of course they spoke ill of chiropractors. I tried their drugs only never suggested physical therapy, I tried massage therapy with hours of relief only so by the time I tried Waukee Wellness my back was twitching and no sleep or peace from the pain. Dr Nyberg told me he could make it better. I started 3 times per week, then 2 and finally 1 and now its bi weekly. Wow! I never thought not only would it be gone but my stress level is amazing! Never knew that chiropractic medicine not only allowed your body to align but that it would also distress the body and the mind. For those of you that have been told only prescriptive drugs will do it..THINK AGAIN! Thank you for changing my life! Karen Towers"

Patient
"For years, pain in the lower back and neck, more recent TMJ and loss of hearing caused recurring debilitating discomfort and pain. Physical therapy and pain medications provided no lasting relief. Seeing a chiropractor was not an option even though hearing and speaking with acquaintances, family, and friends that I should give it a try. After an appointment with Dr. Wesley Nyberg, the entire team proved to be incredibly welcoming and attentive.<br/>Dr. Wes took X-rays and explained in detail and on a level that I could understand the source(s) of the discomfort. The personalized treatment plan led to a dramatic improvement within weeks, and for the first time in years, the I slept pain-free. Energy levels have increased, range of motion improved, and I could continue activities without flare-ups. This practice is highly recommended!"
