Working Together

  • James Mattern
    James Mattern

    Dr. Mattern first gained experience with the positive impact chiropractic can have on an individual in the late 1970’s when his father began seeing a chiropractor. Dr. Mattern again experienced the positive impact of chiropractic when he was in extreme pain in high school following a tough wrestling practice. Ultimately, from these experiences, he realized that chiropractors are capable of making a huge impact on movement, function, and overall well-being.

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • I've suffered from migraines my entire life. As I've gotten older they have increased in frequency to about 3 times a week. No pain killers, either over- the-counter or prescribed have ever been able to take away one of my migraines in the same day. But if I visit Dr. Mattern, and he adjust me, my headaches are usually gone within a few hours and they stay gone for quite awhile. Unbelievable! I would recommend at least trying chiropractic care if you suffer from migraines too.
