Pain-Free & I Need Fewer Medications

I was referred to Dr. Christine Hoch at the Natural Health and Wellness Center by a client of my daughter’s veterinary clinic.  I was experiencing severe pain in my neck, upper back, shoulder and arm.  I sought medical advice and was prescribed various drugs, but the pain was still intense and I often had trouble sleeping.  It was limiting my lifestyle.  Dr. Hoch gave me a complete physical exam and evaluated my posture and muscle and foot balance.  She designed a special plan for my care that included spinal adjustments to balance and straighten my spine and custom orthotics to support and balance my feet.  I experienced nearly complete relief about six weeks into my care and total resolution of my shoulder pain at 3-4 months. As I progressed, I noted my knee, ankle and heel pain had also nearly subsided.  With regular chiropractic adjustments, I have improved my overall health.  Also, I am diabetic and although I admittedly haven’t made all the dietary changes Dr. Hoch recommended, my blood sugar levels continue to decline from regular adjustments. I’ve been able to cut down on the amount of diabetic medication I once needed. I tell everyone I can about the tremendous benefits of chiropractic care and of the marvelous staff at Dr. Hoch’s office. I love those girls!  - Ed Wessels

Chiropractic Care Ended My Severe Headache Pain

I accidentally gave myself a concussion one rainy day.  For weeks afterward, I experienced severe headaches and dizziness. The pain was 9 on a scale of 10.  After a month with no relief, I decided to see Dr. Christine Hoch at the Natural Health & Wellness Center. I was hesitant at first because I have heard “stories” about chiropractic. However, my first visit was fantastic! The office was very clean and the staff was friendly. Dr. Hoch recommended EMS and ultrasound therapy along with adjustments. All I can say is that after ONE treatment I felt like a MILLION bucks! The dizziness and headache pain went away. I couldn’t believe after only one treatment I felt so good. I was miserable for so long and I finally felt like myself.  I have told everyone about chiropractic and now even my husband and mom are seeing Dr. Hoch!  - Kelly Schroth

Chiropractic Cured My Severe Allergies. I Now Have My Life Back!

I will be the first to tell you I was very skeptical about chiropractors.  My husband persuaded me to see Dr. Christine Hoch (an old school chum of ours) because I had been miserable with allergies and asthma for years.  I am allergic to dust, weeds, trees, grasses, feathers and dogs to name a few.  I saw two different ear/nose/throat doctors who each put me on various medications and high doses of ibuprofen for my headaches.  These medications made me nauseous, gave me headaches and sinus infections. I couldn’t be very active because I couldn’t breathe well.  I became even more unhealthy and depressed. To make matters worse, I live on a farm with dogs, horses, and chickens and I am a dog trainer.  I had few options.  I could quit the job I love and move to a more allergy friendly area, continue with all the meds that weren’t working and be miserable, or see what Dr. Hoch could do for me.  

Dr. Hoch’s comprehensive care plan for me included acupuncture, adjustments and homeopathic medicines twice a week.  After only a few months, my symptoms were subsiding.  My life has changed and I would NEVER have believed it possible through chiropractic medicine.  Although it seemed to take a while to get healthy, 18 months later I was just that.  I no longer keep a supply of medications and very rarely take ibuprofen. I now only receive acupuncture as needed to keep my allergies at bay.  I take homeopathic meds that have no side effects and are not damaging my body and I will eventually not need those anymore. The monthly adjustments also help my body to fight infections, walk straighter and tons more that Dr. Hoch can tell you about in keeping you healthy.

I have recommended Dr. Hoch's office to many, many people.  Sadly, some people are as skeptical as I was, but many others have gotten help from her and are very satisfied as well.   - Karen Travis

When my son Justin was four, he didn’t have any medical issues until our family moved to the country.  Soon after we moved, Justin developed really bad allergies.  We took him to an allergist who put him on a lot of medications.  He was in and out of the hospital several times with breathing difficulties in the course of less than a year.  His symptoms were not getting better and so his medications were increased.  As a result, he suffered major side effects from all of the medication.  My friend, Karen, referred me to Dr. Christine Hoch at the Natural Health and Wellness Center.   Dr. Hoch recommended initial visits three times per week and we took him off all of his medications.  He soon felt much better.  Now his appointments are once every two weeks.  He takes homeopathic drops twice a day and is doing wonderfully.  He has not had an allergy or asthma attack in several years.  Thank you Dr. Hoch! -  Kay Craven

I Go Out of My Way to See Dr. Hoch & Dr. Hoch Goes Out of Her Way for Me, and All of Her Patients.

I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis in my left foot prior to coming to see Dr. Christine Hoch at the Natural Health & Wellness Center. I had been seeing a chiropractor close to my home (45 minutes from Peotone), but I was unhappy because I was not getting results. So I decided to see Dr. Hoch, knowing that under her care, I’d get the desired results. I wasn’t disappointed. My plantar fasciitis no longer bothers me. People ask why I drive completely out of my way to see Dr. Hoch, and I tell them I know and trust Dr. Hoch. She’s always been committed to helping people achieve their best possible health. She takes the time to understand your situation and makes sure she is addressing every facet to achieve her patient’s peak health. Not every doctor takes the time to do that. This is why I drive the 45 minutes. I tell my story and recommend Dr. Hoch all the time!
