I have been to numerous chiropractors since I was a little kid and nothing has come close to the help I received from Wellness For Life Chiropractic! I have had headaches and migraines since I was 9 years old and was beginning to think it was just something I had to learn to deal with for the rest of my life. I have been treated by doctors who just wanted to push pain pills at the problem and chiropractors who only provided minimum relief for short periods of time. I normally don't do reviews of places but I want to give credit where it is due. I found this place when I started suffering from daily "neck headaches" which were affecting my ability to do everyday tasks. After only 2 visits with Dr. Ekberg all the pain was gone. Not only was it gone but it has stayed gone! I have walked into this office in pain and walked out pain free and for that I can't give it enough stars!

Accident injury - Wellness for Life – Chiropractic care

After a car accident in 2012 that caused severe shoulder and back pain I sought an alternative to the usual solution of drugs, heat, cold, and rest.  I visited a local chiropractor and received treatment for my injuries.  

With a combination of chiropractic adjustments and physical therapy over a period of 2 years I was pain free and in reasonable health.  I continued to see the chiropractor monthly to maintain alignment of the body.  Then there was the plateau, no further improvement, just maintain the status quo.

Always looking for improvement I began a search for a team to help get me to the next level of complete wellness.  Enter Dr. Ekberg and the Wellness for Life team.  Dr. Ekberg invited me to a seminar at his office to learn the values of neurologically based chiropractic care, good nutrition and spiritual calmness.
I had held similar beliefs all my adult life and the more I learned the more the method made sense.  Let the body know what isn’t correct, give stimulation to open the nerve path to the brain, and give the body the nutrition needed, and let it fix the problem.  

It works!!!  I am not only pain free, but have mobility I haven’t enjoyed in years.

I will continue to be a fan and patient working toward wellness for my life with Dr. Ekberg and the Wellness for Life team.

Go to a seminar, listen, learn, and get healthier!!!!

Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Dr. Ekberg & Dr. Smith are very thorough and take their time with each patient. This practice is not just about treating a particular ailment, instead they address the body holistically and look to get to the root of why symptoms are manifesting. If your goal is to achieve wellness for life, this place is for you. And shout-out to administrative staff who are pleasant and accommodating.

Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

With my busy work and school schedule I can usually call and get worked in by Dr. Smith. Occasional adjustments (one or two a month) keep me going strong. It is a great place with great folks who truly care about my wellbeing.

Nutrition and Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Dr. Ekberg is the best doctor I've been to. He listens to your concerns and tailors the program to your individual body chemistry. I have been on his program now for 5 months and have seen tremendous improvements in my health. Very glad I met Dr. Ekberg!

Nutrition and Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Although I am just getting started with the Nutrition Response Testing program with Dr. Ekberg,  I am beyond excited to see  where it leads.   Looks like this journey may take some time, but I am ready thanks to Dr. Ekberg and his very pleasant and patient staff. Thank you!

Pain Relief and Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Wonderful experience!  I had a great deal of pain in my neck and lower back for some time. I had never been to a Chiropractor before, this was the first time for me.  I was nervous about the visit but needed relief tried many other options nothing seemed to work.  I read the reviews online...  I thought I would give them a try.   I was surprised by the quick results this was the best decision for me.  Great experience I highly recommend!

Stiffness and Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

I am a student at college.  Sitting in class all day and evening studies had left me with overall body stiffness and aches.  It would wake me up at night. Getting ready for school in the morning was tough because of the stress from inadequate sleep and muscle tension.  I tried stretching and taking ibuprofen but neither worked.  It was becoming difficult to sit through classes and my concentration was suffering.  I started hearing positive things about Dr. Ekberg's Wellness For Life in Cumming, Ga., so I made an appointment.  It's one of the best things I've ever done for myself.  My first visit virtually eliminated all of my joint stiffness.  When I returned, I decided to add a therapeutic massage and the combined results were remarkable. My concentration has improved and my energy level has risen. I have been sleeping better than ever.  I highly recommend Dr. Ekberg's Wellness For Life for everyone.  His seminars are informative and his staff is amazing!! They truly care about your overall health inside and out.  Kaitlyn R. (Gainesville, Ga).

Massage, Pain Relief and Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

I have been to countless doctors and at least four Chiropractors over the past several years for consistent back, arm, and leg pain. Each of them gave a different diagnosis and relieved some of the pain for 1-3 hours total, before I was agonizing all over again. That was, until I learned about Wellness For Life Neurologic Chiropractic. WOW! I couldn't believe that after my very first session with Dr. Ekberg's Associate (Dr. Colby Smith), my pain was not only instantly relieved, but it was 3-4 days before I began feeling any pain at all. When the pain did return, it was very slight and once again quickly alleviated for several days. When I first entered their office I couldn't even raise my arm without excruciating pain. Now I am able to clean my home, run errands without assistance, and do my daily activities. Having suffered in pain for so long without relief, I and so grateful to have found Dr. Ekberg and Wellness For Life Chiropractic. My daughter now sees Dr. Smith and enjoys the therapeutic massages given by Asha, Licensed Massage Therapist who is also onsite.  (KLR - Gainesville, GA)

Pediatric Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Dr. Ekberg's practice was exactly what I was looking for to help my one and a half year old son be truly healthy!

Julie F


Nutrition and Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

I got amazing results after 3 months of visits to Dr. Ekberg Clinic. He has holistic approach to many issues you have in your body. This really worked for me. He not only helped me to stop lower back pain but also helped me to take off my anxiety medicine using breathing technique. Any disease best works if your body and mind co-operates together. Dr. Ekberg helps you to achieve this approach.  I'm an engineer and understand how well feedback system works. He does use this mechanism to get feedback using unique technique that helps him to adjust whenever needed in your spinal cord. I visited many chiropractor and many of them adjust only few pressure points and keep some for next visit. However Dr. Ekberg get feedback and adjust all points needed. He is one of the honest Dr. I met since last 30+ years. I have been with this Dr. since 2012. I visit at least once or twice a month to maintain my body. I do not have lower back pain since 2012.

Nutrition and Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Best Chiropractor! Dr. Ekberg explains health in a way that makes sense and is very effective. If you are tired of doctors not listening or just giving out meds like candy then you have to see Dr. Ekberg. Dr. Ekberg has a holistic approach in everything he does. Dr. Ekberg is like a holistic doctor, naturopathic doctor, functional medicine doctor, chinese doctor, sports medicine doctor, and chiropractor doctor all rolled into one with more knowledge than a medical doctor. I have learned so much at Dr Ekberg's chiropractor's office ! I don't understand why medical doctors don't explain health so simply. Dr Ekberg really understands health and explains it in a way that anyone can comprehend. Getting healthy is no longer a mystery. It is nice to know that someone actually cares and knows what they are talking about.

Pain & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Highly Recommended Chiropractor!!!

I slept wrong and normally I would ride it out for about a week or two, but this time I thought I would see if a chiropractor could help. Due to Dr. Ekberg’s excellent reviews I thought I would try him. 

Dr Ekberg explained very simply that the brain controls everything from your heart beat to signals of feeling pain. Pain is the body's way of telling me something is not right in my body. It is not that I slept wrong. Many times I have slept like I was in Cirque Du Soleil and never had an issue. 

The problem was already there before I went to sleep. I learned that this is the beginning signals that my body is not working at 100%. These little pains are early warning signals for me to know that I need to get healthy before I end up with something like diabetes, heart disease, or even cancer. 

Dr Ekberg explained that stress (structural emotional physical) is the issue in most chronic diseases and many times why we feel pain. Well I just changed jobs, so yes I am stressed. He explained that stress is not always something we are aware that over 95% is subconscious. 

I was out of pain by the time Dr Ekberg finished. For all the time, personal attention, and care that Dr. Ekberg puts into his patients he is underpaid. 

I highly recommend Dr. Ekberg for not only pain relief but to be the healthiest you can be.

Dr. Ekberg is great chiropractor. I have been visiting for last 4 years to keep myself healthy. Recently I joined program Nutrition Response Testing. This program has greatly helped me auto heal various symptoms such as angina, knee pain, back pain etc. I read review from Cory and want add that this Dr. Is not an emergency hospital and will not heal in one visit. It took me one month to see some results and 3 months to symptom disappear completely.

Fibromyalgia & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Improvement of Fibromyalgia. After years of chiropractic adjustments, I have found something unique that is helping my pain. Dr. Ekberg's technique is so different. Because of severe neck pain and being unable to relax prior to twisted neck adjustments from other chiropractors, I usually hurt worse after going. Dr. Ekberg uses a low force technique that doesn't send my fibromyalgia into a flare. I am looking forward to continued improvement while under Dr. Ekberg's care and have a new hope to living with less pain and hopefully no pain. Go in with an open mind to a new way of being adjusted. - Gail R

Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

The most comprehensive chiropractic care I have ever received. Dr. Ekberg doesn't just fix what's wrong for the moment, he teaches you to live better in order to heal you for life.

Pain & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Quality care and wellness for life

I have been in and out of Chiropractors offices my whole life. Dr. Ekberg was the first one to help remove the pain and teach me how to keep it from coming back. - SD


Headache & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Dr. Ekberg is amazing! He is the BEST chiropractor ever!!!!

For over 6 months my daughter has been suffering from a chronic headache, the pain has been so serve that she was hospitalized, unable to drive her car, no social life etc. We visited many doctors, acupuncturists, Reiki masters, massage therapists, cranial-sacral massage practitioners, chiropractic, stress relief exercises, hypnotherapy and many types of medications, all with little or no relief.

Then while doing an Internet search we found Dr. Ekberg’s practice, we liked what we where reading about his practice so I called the office. Dr. Ekberg answered the phone so I was able speak to him directly. I enjoyed speaking with him so made an appointment for my daughter as soon as I could. We drove to the office which was around 40 miles from where live and were wondering if the trip was going to be worth it, as we where becoming very skeptical from all of the failed attempts to relive her pain.

Dr. Ekberg actually LISTENED to my daughter Kayleen, before he began treating her. He used a combination of treatments while continuing to listen to her, and fully explaining to her what he was doing and why. Within 30 min her headache pain was reduced from a pain range of 8 out of 10 to 4; that was only on Thursday (the first visit). Kayleen’s 2nd appointment was Saturday morning her pain range still at a 4, Dr. Ekberg began treating her again, and the pain range went from a 4 to about a 1.5, just a regular headache. Kayleen actually cried with joy on her trip home as she had begun believing that she would be living her life in pain and Dr. Ekberg changed that.

She has actually had pain free days now and is driving her car again, all of this within a week of treatment.

Dr. Ekberg explained very simply that the brain controls everything from your heartbeat to signals of feeling pain. He is very caring and does not treat you like just another number at his practice.

I recommend him without hesitation; we pass many chiropractic offices on our way to see Dr. Ekberg, however the drive is so worth it.

Do not make distance an excuse, call his office 678-638-0898 and make an appointment even if you are feeling well, as Dr. Ekberg will teach you how to stay healthy and live your best life.

Numbness, Back Pain, Sleep & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

I just wanted to say a quick thank you on behalf of the family for your wonderful care and expertise. My hand and arm numbness have stayed away since our appointment yesterday, and I had the first full night's sleep in a month! I have already become diligent about supplementing with the back stretches,which by the way are done very well on line for us to follow. We will be using your exercises to keep us going while we are on the road showing, and look forward to seeing you upon our return!

Sincerely,

Scoliosis & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

5 star care

I have seen chiropractors my whole life and am so grateful to have found Dr.Ekberg. He is about finding the solution to the cause of the problem. I have scoliosis and the way he adjusts gives me the most relief I've found with chiropractic. On top of great care, he gives free health talks that have so much great info. I've learned so much and I am getting back to 100% health. This office really cares.


Chiropractic & Health - Chiropractor Review

You are Well taken care of with Dr Ekberg

Dr. Ekberg is extraordinary! He is a true professional who makes positive health results come to life for his patients. And on top of that he is a great person to deal with. Very customer service oriented.. Highly recommended.

Whereas, there are Chiropractors are all over the city of Atlanta.. some treat their "patients" as though they were a car in for repairs. They can be impersonal, shuttling you in and out as fast as they can, doing the absolute minimum for the billing code. This type of Chiropractor is what give the entire practice a somewhat bad reputation.

Dr. Ekberg is NOT of that type.
He takes wonderful care of his patient and seeks first to understand the comprehensive causal source of health problems a patient may suffer from. Then, and only then, does he address the cause as well as alleviating the symptom. He makes sure that you are well cared for and that you leave the office better off than you came in, both physically and mentally.

I give Dr. Ekberg my highest recommendation.. He is just great.

Neck Pain, Back Pain, Stress, Health & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Wonderful, caring chiropractor!

I was a bit skeptical of chiropractors before coming to Dr. Ekberg. He helped me with neck and back pain, but also helped me to realize how stress played a major factor in my overall well being. Dr. Ekberg suggested breathing exercises, change in diet, exercise, positive thinking, and other techniques to help me reduce my stress level and improve my overall condition and morale. He does way more than just pop your neck and back, charge you, and send you on your way. He really seems to care about his patients' well being. His Wednesday free clinics are great as well. I would highly recommend him.

Dr Ekberg the Olympic Chiropractor

Dr Ekberg was one of the few doctors that was very concerned about my health. He is more than just a spine doctor / chiropractor. He addresses the whole body. I really like that he sees all his patients. I had been to chiropractors before, but never saw the doctor. I see doctor Ekberg every time I go there. He is extremely gentle, and he is way under priced for all that he does. I love my Olympic Chiropractor. (He was in the 1992 Olympics)

Margaret P


Auto Accident, Pain & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Best Chiropractor around

Dr. Ekberg was extremely gentle after I was involved in a car accident. He explained that my nervous system was very fragile after such a traumatic event, and tha adjusting me hard could cause more pain and a longer healing time. That made perfect sense to me as it hurt just to sit after the car wreck. Two months later I feel 150% better. I feel better than before the car accident!


Mobility, Pain Relief, & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Unbelievable Results

I can't believe what what Dr. Ekberg has done to increase my mobility and virtually eliminate my pain. After seeing an orthopedic surgeon and undergoing physical therapy 5 years ago without success, I resigned myself to not running again and living with pain. I didn't think a chiropractor could help until two of my neighbors raved about the remarkable improvements they experienced from Dr. Ekberg's treatment. I began seeing Dr. Ekberg two months ago and have experienced dramatic results. I can run again without pain! My shoulder no longer droops, and my hips are no longer twisted. I just enjoyed a pain-free hike in the Berkshires that I never thought I would experience again. I can now sit straight, stand straight and walk straight without pain. Unbelievable.

Lower Back Painm & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

My son and I were Geocaching (treasure hunting and hiking) and I went to bend down to see if the "prize" was under a rock I felt a slight pain in my back. The pain didn't seem to be too bad, so we kept on treasure hunt. About an hour later I had to sit down and rest. I felt good until I stood up. The pain in my lower back was so intense that I had to sit down again. After some time I was able to walk very slowly back to my car. A neighbor of mine was outside and saw that I wasn't doing so well when I got out of my car. He recommended Dr. Ekberg before, but I always thought chiropractors were quacks. Of course it was a Saturday, but luckily Dr. Ekberg's office was open and they were able to see me right away. Dr Ekberg changed my mind about chiropractors. What he explained made perfect sense. I am a programmer, so I sit at a desk for hours a day. The chiropractor, Dr. Ekberg, explained that your body is smart and it uses the "use it or lose it" mentality. By sitting at the desk all day, and not working out much, my body didn't have to use the muscle to bend over. Over time not only did I lose the strength of the muscle in that area, my brain connection for that body part got also weaker. He explained something about learning to play piano also strengthens the synapses in the brain, so that is why after a while playing piano is very easy to do. When I walked out of his office I was pain free. I felt a little sore, but I could walk normal. Monday I saw him again and I felt great. I see Dr Ekberg on a regular basis now and trust him. Thank you so much Dr. Ekberg. The other reviewer was correct when he said Dr. Ekberg doesn't just pop your neck, charge you and send you on your way. Dr. Ekberg really does care about my health.

Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Chiropractic care has dramatically changed my life! I've been getting chiropractic adjustments for the past 5 years. I have seen a lot of chiropractors, all of them having something different offer. Wellness For Life Chiropractic is by far my favorite chiropractic office. Dr. Ekberg is a great chiropractor with great knowledge in so many areas. I learn so much about my health and well being every time I go. Thank you Dr. Ekberg and the rest of the staff! Traveling for work can get crazy, but it's nice that there is somewhere to go in Alpharetta to get such amazing care, relax, and be around people with such great energy. Thank you for caring...Thank you all around!

Pain, Health & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

THE best overall doctor in Atlanta!!!

He is truly gifted and he will put his fingers right on your pain! Dr. Ekberg is about getting you healthy from the inside out and not so much worried about treating symptoms! When you heal from inside out then your body is reset and able to heal itself and you will find you can put away the Advil and Tylenol and you will sleep like a baby! 

Give him a try and you won't be sorry!


Health & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Best Chiropractor and Holistic Doctor in Georgia

Dr. Ekberg is a genius. I had been looking for awhile for a holistic practitioner who could really help me understand what was going on with my body and health. Dr. Ekberg not only addressed all aspects of my health he also took the time to explain so that I could understand. I have so much more joy and confidence in my body now.


Health & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

ABOVE AND BEYOND!

Seldom do you find a health care practioner that REALLY cares about EVERY aspect of your life. When you find one, you keep them forever Dr. Ekberg is one of these. 
I have been to several Chiropractors in the past that just did your adjustment and collected their payment. Dr. Ekberg is the complete opposite of the stereotype: he is careful, asks many questions, discusses the root cause to an ailment, and presents alternatives. He showed me how harmful "Splenda" can be to me and I have not touched it since. BONUS, I haven't gained any weight! I have been seeing Dr. Ekberg for nearly 2 years and will continue to see him regularly. Seek him out and you will be grateful you found him! TWO THUMBS WAY UP!


Health & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Great Chiropractor (and then some)!

I had neglected my health for several years and came to Dr. Ekberg with multiple complaints. 
Dr. Ekberg has integrated "traditional" chiropractic care, allergy treatment, nutrition, and breathing (to help manage stress/blood pressure) to help me realize my health goals. 
After a few months in Dr. Ekberg's care, I have seen impressive improvements in overall health. 

Cost-wise, Dr. Ekberg is out-of-network for me, but he files the paperwork and in the end, my cost is equivalent to my previous in-network chiropractors. I'm sure this varies by insurance company and policy, but don't be too quick to assume out-of-network care is more expensive. 

Dr. Ekberg is also excellent to work with. He runs an efficient operation and my wait time averages under 5 minutes! My previous chiropractor averaged over 40 minutes wait before seeing him, and then, the treatment was not as effective (nor as comprehensive).


Vision & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

WOW

I wasn't a believer in chiropractic (until now). A friend talked me into going with her to her chiropractic appointment, so I went. I had some flashes of lights in the corner of my vision and asked the chiropractor if he could help me get rid of the flashes of lights. The lights I saw were like when sunlight dances on the floor after its been filtered through glass or water. To my astonishment Dr. Ekberg was able to get rid of the flashes of lights. Within two minutes of him working on me the lights were completely gone!!! My vision seems a little better too. Now I am not sure if my vision is better or the lights were just distracting me, but it seems like I can see better.


Shoulder Pain, Knee Pain, Allergy, Health & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Whole body wellness

I definitely recommend Dr. Ekberg if you are frustrated with long term pain. I'd had nagging shoulder and knee problems that I thought I was just going to learn to live with. He spends time and listens carefully to what you have to say. He has a very thoughtful approach to chiropractic and considers your whole well being, using a mind-body connection process. I've benefited in other ways in regard to allergies and overall wellness. If you're looking for a thoughtful chiropractor, go see Dr. E! It's not the usual pop and go chiropractic.


Back Pain, Shoulder Pain & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Care for your overall health - painfree health

I saw Dr. Ekberg four years ago when I had back pain. He made me feel better, so I figured I was better and stopped seeing him. Recently my shoulder started hurting me, so I went back to him. He explained that he could get rid of the pain like he did before, but to get to the source of the issue it will take more time. Like he said he got rid of the pain after three visits. This time I am working on the issue, so I don't have to feel like I am 100 years old. It is nice to know that someone else cares about my health and happiness.

Relief...finally!

I have tried many remedies to my neck and shoulder problems, all to no avail. I dreaded going to sleep at night because of the pain and discomfort. After four weeks of treatment by Dr. Ekberg, I am "sleeping like a baby."

THE BEST EXPERIENCE

My husband and I had been going to Dr. Ekberg for a while and our health and quality of life has improved since. We are very pleased and grateful!


Auto Accident, Sleep, Stress, Health & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

I feel young again

Dr Ekberg helped me in 1 day what others couldn’t do in 10 years. After a car wreck other chiropractors would harshly pop (rip my neck off) 1 area that showed up on the x-ray. Dr E used muscle testing, which apparently works, and gently popped several areas. 

Dr E is extremely gentle and also cares about my overall health. I didn’t know chiropractors could help me with sleep, stress, & auto immunities. A painless stress response exam showed me in black & white what I was doing to my body. Taking drugs daily or going to the chiropractor weekly… easy choice… especially since what Dr. E is doing to me is working, easy & pain free. 

I highly recommend going to Dr. E for body pains and your overall health!

Top Quality

Dr. Ekberg's focus on total health is refreshing. He brings an extra dimension from his background as an olympic athlete. His focus on healthy life style gives useful insights and an extra dimension to chiropractic care.


Three years ago I originally went to Dr. Ekberg because I slept wrong and due to Dr. Ekberg’s excellent reviews I thought I would try him. I felt great and my life got very hectic, so I stopped going to him for awhile. While I was not going there and all the stress in my life I ended up having high cholesterol and high blood sugar. I made the mistake of following my medical doctor's advice and started taking medicine. My labs didn't get much better and I felt worse when I was on medicine. Then I remembered Dr. Ekberg and called to get an appointment. It has been 2 months since I started back and I am no longer on any medication. My cholesterol level is normal, my blood sugar levels are normal and I have so much energy. I feel great! I highly recommend anyone that has: pain, fatigue, brain fog, high cholesterol, blood sugar issue, or anything else to give them a try.

I use Chiropractic care to keep me healthy and feeling good. I've seen a variety of different doctors that use a variety of techniques. Dr. Sten has a unique system that really gets to the core of what is going on with your body. He has very nice demeanor and is pleasant to work with. His staff is friendly and welcoming. I like the convenience of his location to where I live & I'm amazed at how much better I feel every time I leave his office. I highly recommend trying his technique.

Knee Pain & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Glad I saw Dr. Ekberg about my knees

My knees had been hurting for years. When I went to the orthopedist all they could tell me was that the pain came from arthritis and I would have to live with it. Well, after a few sessions with Doctor Ekberg, the pain was gone. He explained to me how the body really works and took the time to help improve other aspects of my life style as well. I strongly recommend Dr. Ekberg and Wellness For Life. Don't make it your last resort - make it your first.


Health & Chiropractic  - Chiropractor Review

Keeps me healthy!

Dr. Ekberg is a part of my general health routine and I am so grateful to have found him! I work in a stressful environment and have to manage the toll on my body. While I occasionally need adjustments for my skeletal system, more importantly, I require support for healthy hormonal function and a taxed nervous system. Dr. Ekberg is able to address these issues with a host of therapies and a wholistic approach to wellness in a short amount of time. Bottom line: He can offer a lot more than a regular chiro if you need it and you can trust that he will listen to your concerns and provide the care you need.


Chiropractic, Upper Back Pain & Nutrition - Chiropractor Review

Excellent

I started going to Dr. Ekberg after his initial visit to my workplace around 6 months ago. He seemed very knowledgeable and willing to work around my financial needs w/out "pushing" me to go. I was mainly going for "preventive maintenance", although I have had an issue w/muscle inflammation that I have been dealing w/on my left upper back region. After several visits, he continually works on that part of my back in addition to making adjustments where needed. My upper back is much more mobile since I have been going. In addition to aligning my back where needed, I like the fact that he suggests nutritional supplements that would work for my body/lifestyle. He educates his patients which I feel is much more important for preventive health!!


Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Thorough, precise, & gentle

I have seen Dr. Ekberg for chiropractic care, BRT, and Kinesiology. He is thorough in his exams and diagnosis, precise in his treatments, and gentle in his adjustments. Dr. Ekberg really listens to you and works with you to heal. He's a gift to his patients.


Migraine & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

I was skeptical

When I first went to see Dr. Ekberg, I was really skeptical. He made a believer out of me right away. I've suffered from Migraines for many years. Nothing worked! While I still get some headaches, they're not as severe, and not as frequent. Definitely more tolerable! There's not a session where I don't learn something. Dr. Ekberg is extremely knowledgeable, and is always willing to share that knowledge. He takes the time to make sure you understand even going so far as to offer free informational seminars!! I highly recommend attending!!


Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Very Patient and Caring

Dr. Ekberg took his time with me and was very patient with my issues. I feel much better now. Thanks Dr. Ekberg!

The Nicest Doctor

I saw Dr. Ekberg today and he is the nicest doctor. He helped me with my alleriges and thyroid issues. I highly recommend him.


Knee Pain & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Reviewl

Thank You - I had been suffering from weakness and pain in both legs for about a year. After hearing a talk given by Dr. Ekberg, I decided to go to him. I have had 7 appointments so far and my weak legs have gotten stronger, almost back normal. My knees don't hurt when I bend them and my big toe which had been numb for years is getting feeling back in it. I am particularly pleased because he muscle tests to see exactly what is needed by my body and not just guesses what is wrong. So everything is done as directed by my body, that makes your treatment fast and effective. I certainly would recommend Dr. Ekberg to anyone.

Pain, Fatigue & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Finally got relief

I had been everywhere, and all they did was to more tests and tell me everything was normal, but my pain and my fatigue was the same. After 5 years I was starting to despair. Dr. Ekberg spent a lot of time explaining how things really work, and after about 3-4 visits my pain was down to half. After 6 visits it was gone. I can't recommend him highly enough. Don't make it your last resort. Make it your first choice.

Pediatric Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Dr. E is an amazing chiropractor!!

I have been bringing my family to Wellness For Life, and my now 9 month old son has seen life changing improvements. We have been getting chiropractic adjustments for the past 2 months and the changes in my son and myself are wonderful. Before getting chiropractic adjustments my son would not sleep very often, and he had a lot of trouble eating. After the first chiropractic adjustment he started sleeping 12 hours a night and eating on a regular schedule. His weight has gone up and he is thriving! As a breastfeeding mom, I struggled to maintain my milk supply and had to pump several times a day and take herbal supplements. After getting chiropractic adjustments, my body has been making a full supply of milk. Totally life changing! Thanks Dr. E!!!

Back Pain, Allergy, Asthma & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Excellent knowledge. I have seen Dr. Ekberg for pain in my back. Not only the pain now is gone - he also treated me for my cat allergy that I have had since s a child. And the allergy - running nose and asthma - is to my astonishment and relief gone as well! Dr. Ekberg's knowledge in addressing the cause of a problem exceeds by far regular doctors' who only know how to address the symptoms.

Psoriasis, Sleep, Flexibility, Allergy & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Dr.  Sten,

I thought you'd be interested in my comments on my progress.

The psoriasis on my right arm that I have been fighting for several months, is going away. It's about 25% of what it was before.

My nasal passages are totally clear 24/7 for the first time in my life (remember, I started smoking at 12 years old).

I'm sleeping soundly at last. No more waking up in the middle of the night, sweating.

I'm amazed at how much more "flexible" I am. We get used to our bodies being stiff I guess, and it just seems natural.

The "allergic reaction" (runny nose) is MUCH better.  I finally worked up the nerve to return to the restaurants and stores that gave me trouble before, and the reaction was about 20% of what it was two weeks ago. However, I've been working outside the last two days, and the pollen gave me fits.

The redness on my left forearm, from prednisone and vitamin E is almost gone.

No more offensive body odor -- this may be new to you, but when I started on my "program" 12 years ago, B.O. was one of the things to go away, and that was a real surprise  -- and I haven't used an underarm deodorant for many years -- I've used a natural crystal.

However, in the past couple years the B.O. problem had returned.  But now it's gone again.  Some people might think that all this is a coincidence, but since the only thing I've done different in the past month or so, is come to you for adjustments and "clearing" of some of the toxins in my body, I'm convinced that your "methods" are the reason for the improvement.

As I told you, I've been to a lot of Chiropractors since 1963, but none have been anywhere near as effective as you have been.

And to me, results are what counts.

Frankly, not only do I feel better than I did a month ago -- overall I feel better than at any other time in my life.  No, I couldn't outrun a teenager, but I'll bet I can out walk him -- and he'll get tired while I'm still going strong.

I'm carbon copying this to a friend  whose wife may be calling to make an appointment with you.

Your new friend and very satisfied patient,
Bob H (76 y/o)


Health, Stress, Depression, Fatigue & Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Dear Dr. Ekberg,

Thank You for all that you did to help me regain my health after a year of burnout throughout 2007.

I started an MD/Masters Dual degree program in 2003/2004; typically a 6 or 7 year program. So, while studying for medical school classes for 2 years, I had the added responsibility of also having to study for a full-time Master's Degree Program. Attending Medical School is difficult enough in its own right, but adding a full-time Master's Degree program is increasingly difficult and utterly challenging.

In addition, I also worked 40 hours a week in my medical school's library. So, I had a full plate (make that platter) to say the least. There were times during which I only had time to sleep every other night. When I began studying for my medical boards in March of 2007, it took a couple of months for me to realize my state of burnout and mental exhaustion. Over a period of several months, my doctor placed me on and switched me from medication to medication to help me concentrate & focus, and for depression and exhaustion. And, I actually became exhausted by the circumstance of nothing really alleviating the symptoms.

Having to sit for my boards it soon made my circumstance seem dire and in a state of despair. I have suffered from Moderate to Severe Clinical ADD & Mild Depression since college; and most likely long before my initial diagnosis in 1995/1996. And, over the years psychiatrists and internists have switched me from medication to medication to medication. Each seems to last anywhere between a couple of months to a year; and then its effects would fade...

This led me to believe that traditional western, allopathic treatments and remedies don't have all the answers; something that I had pondered prior to even applying to medical school. Finally, in the spirit of open-mindedness (and complete desperation), I found a link to your seminars online and decided to attend one. Being a skeptical medical school student (and a Virgo), I approached the seminar in a highly critical way. However, I was quickly surprised by the medical knowledge that the workshop/seminar disseminated to the group.

So, after a month or so, I booked an appointment with you for an assessment even though I was still very skeptical about the treatments. However, I quickly saw my symptoms of exhaustion, depression and malaise disappear over a period of a few weeks. I felt a renewed sense of vitality, energy, purpose, spirit, health, and determination. I sat for my medical board exams on December 15th, and I hope and pray that I performed well.

I deeply regret that I had not sought your treatment earlier in the year; in which case I would have been 100% cured of my burnout. But, even just a month of treatment did wonders for me. I deeply and sincerely thank you for helping me restore my health.

As an Allopathic Medical School Student, I'm taught to be skeptical of Alternative Remedies, Treatments, Therapies, and Modalities. But, I must admit that you made a complete believer out of me. Regardless of my performance on my boards, I'm utterly confident that 2008 will be a much richer, robust, and healthier year for me due to your skills as a medical practitioner.

I will also recommend you as a PRIMARY, 1st-Step care provider to anyone that I know who's suffering from a medical malady... You have completely proved to me that your methods, skills, and techniques, in many ways, outperform traditional, allopathic therapies and modalities; in both the long-run and most certainly in the short-term.

It's been over 30 days since my last treatment, and I still feel just as vital, energetic, and full of life as I did the day after my last treatment.

Sincerely & Gratefully Yours Dr. Ekberg,
David W

Dr Ekberg explains health in a way that makes sense

I went to Dr Ekberg's health talks at his chiropractor's office and learned so much! I don't understand why medical doctors don't explain health so simply. Dr Ekberg really understands health and explains it in a way that anyone can comprehend. Getting healthy is no longer a mystery. It is nice to know that someone actually cares and knows what they are talking about. Oh and he post the videos on his website if you want to see past ones.


Chiropractic - Chiropractor Review

Thank You Dr Ekberg! I loved and appreciated the lectures I have attended. Thank You so much. I am now learning the different views of how to approach health. I am watching what I put in my body and trying as much as possible to stay stress-free which is a little hard. I have started looking forward to Thursdays so I can be here and learn new stuff. Thanks again and God bless you!

I really liked the workshop. I loved the fact that it was very personal and informative. Basic concepts of body make-up, cells, needs and consequences. I loved the information on nutrition - how different foods aid in proper cell growth and organ function. The information on diabetes and blood sugar was very powerful in explaining how it develops. If you understand how it develops you can act to slow it down or even reverse it and recover. Dr. Ekberg covered areas that need to be learned, relearned and reinforced.

Thank you Dr. Ekberg. I really liked how you put food requirements into simple terms. I also liked the diagrams and illustrations of the body types and the concerns of each one.

Massage Reviews


Recently I experienced the healing hands of Asha. After too much this and too much that, mainly exercise and work, I sulked into her relaxation den. She was so kind and empathetic, listening to All my aches and pains from farming, cycling and living life to the fullest! After identifying key areas to work on for maximum comfort and critical healing, she worked her magic. I left feeling the most at peace I'd felt in a while. Looking forward to returning for a maintenance visit to continue feeling better and better!

Accident injury - Wellness for Life – Chiropractic care
After a car accident in 2012 that caused severe shoulder and back pain I sought an alternative to the usual solution of drugs, heat, cold, and rest.  I visited a local chiropractor and received treatment for my injuries.  
With a combination of chiropractic adjustments and physical therapy over a period of 2 years I was pain free and in reasonable health.  I continued to see the chiropractor monthly to maintain alignment of the body.  Then there was the plateau, no further improvement, just maintain the status quo.
Always looking for improvement I began a search for a team to help get me to the next level of complete wellness.  Enter Dr. Ekberg and the Wellness for Life team.  Dr. Ekberg invited me to a seminar at his office to learn the values of neurologically based chiropractic care, good nutrition and spiritual calmness.
I had held similar beliefs all my adult life and the more I learned the more the method made sense.  Let the body know what isn’t correct, give stimulation to open the nerve path to the brain, and give the body the nutrition needed, and let it fix the problem.  
It works!!!  I am not only pain free, but have mobility I haven’t enjoyed in years.
I will continue to be a fan and patient working toward wellness for my life with Dr. Ekberg and the Wellness for Life team.
Go to a seminar, listen, learn, and get healthier!!!!
