Since coming to Alternacare I have seen a lot of improvement in my physical well-being, i.e. I have lost 25 lbs. Also, I have had my thyroid tests checked @ my medical doctor and have been able to stop taking Synthroid, Cholesterol is in ok range and my 2 year bone density tests have shown improvements in bone density with NO medications. Thank you all at Alternacare for being compassionate, caring and good listeners.

When I first came to Alternacare, I had muscle and joint problems. My blood pressure and cholesterol was also a problem. I could not walk for very long and steps were a problem. I have always been a person with high energy and a lot of flexibility, and now I felt as though I was in my 80’s instead of 61 years old. Now I feel as I did back in my 40”s. It is great to get out of bed with a great attitude. I no longer have to go running to my coffee pot to wake up in the morning. I can sleep at night and the pain in my legs and hips are gone. My sleep is restful, I say my prayers at night and I am out like light.
When I started coming to Alternacare I was very overweight. I felt terrible and had joint pain that was severe everyday. I had high cholesterol, high blood pressure, could not sleep full nights, was easily fatigued, had sinus infections regularly and could hardly get around the golf course due to hip and joint pain.
My experience has been a very positive one. When I first came, I really didn’t know what to expect. I have been educated on how the body works, which has helped me to understand my care that I am receiving. The workshops are great to help with that.I had so many problems. I was hormonal, tired all the time, could not sleep through the night, hot flashes, depressed, and aches and pains in my joints. With feeling and questions of WHAT DO I DO TO GET BETTER? I feel I have found the answer.
After seven days on my program, I have lost eight pounds, my energy is improving, I sleep though the night, my vision is better and my joint pain is better. I am so excited about getting well. Now I have hope. One day at a time.

The last three times I went to my primary care doctor, he told me it didn’t matter what I did nothing would helped me. That’s when my daughter found the Holistic Wellness Center in Newnan. She made an appointment for herself, my daughter-in-law and me. I was so proud they went with me, because we all needed help. I’m a diabetic, with high blood pressure, stomach, leg & foot cramps, joint pain, thyroid problems, high cholesterol and felt tired and weak all the time. I was on eight prescriptions and four over the counter medicine. My numbers were:
Diabetes(Blood Sugar) – 303
High Blood Pressure – 148/70
High Cholesterol – 215
Triglycerides – 500
I weighed 220 lbs. and I’m 5’5” tall. My primary care doctor was going to put me on insulin the next visit. I asked him to let me see if I could get the numbers down on my own. That’s when he told me it didn’t matter what I did nothing would helped. WELL YOU BE THE JUDGE!
Diabetes(Blood Sugar) – 95
High Blood Pressure – 129/70
High Cholestrol – 157
Triglycerides – 187
Weight – 201
The muscle cramps and joint pain are gone. I have more energy, and feel so much better. Thank you Dr. DeBease, Dr. Poli and staff for caring enough to show me I can do it, and prove my doctor wrong.
I CAN DO SOMETHING!!!!

When I came into Alternacare, my Internist had me on 6 different prescription drugs. I have had high blood pressure for 15 years as well as reflux. I was retaining fluid and had high cholesterol as well as seasonal allergies and asthma. My Dr. was going to put me on more meds for a kidney problem also. The kidney problem was caused by all the other meds I was taking.
After getting sick from a statin drug, my boss had a talk with me and asked what the problem was . I told him about the meds and he told me that statin drugs are so bad for you. He gave me info that changed my life. I stopped taking the statin drug and started feeling better.
I went to one of Dr. Rob’s workshops and what he was telling us, hit a nerve. I had a lot of these symptoms. Tired, no energy, weight gain, and just not feeling right.
I was tested and Dr Rob took over. It is some months later and I am proud to say that I am off all my prescription drugs and have not felt better in my life. I keep taking my blood pressure cause I don’t believe it. It is always normal (125/73)…That is so low for me. I’m almost 66 years of age and can bend better, walk longer and I have so much more energy. Plus I sleep so good now.
I can’t say enough about Dr. Rob and Dr Poli and Pam and Nola the beautiful ladies at the front desk. I truly believe that God knew how bad I wanted and needed my body healed and sent me to Alternacare. God Bless them all.
PS I have lost 10 pounds so far. We are working on eating right to deal with what is left.

Before coming to Alternacare, I had high cholesterol, could not lose weight and had no energy. I felt tired and sluggish all the time. It felt as if it was just slowing me down. I was not able to do the things I wanted to do. I was also taking medication to reduce my cholesterol. Since coming to Alterncare my energy has increased, I have lost 26 pounds and reduced my cholesterol medication by half. I am feeling great and always recommending Alternacare to others.

When I found Alternacare, I had been battling extremely high blood pressure (225/125) for approximately six months. I recently had an allergic reaction to several blood pressure medications, which put me in the hospital. I was fearful that I might have a stroke, both of my parents died of strokes. I also suffer from fibromyalgia and because of the allergic reactions to the blood pressure medications, I had severe FM flare ups.
Over the eight years, since being diagnosed with FM, I have gained 30 LBS. I have been unable to exercise, unable to lose weight, have had restless sleep, suffer severe pain nearly 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Most of all, I was unsuccessful in lowering my blood pressure.
I have been coming to Alternacare for 6 weeks. My BP is down to 143/88! I have begun exercising every other day, walking 1.5 miles at 3 mph on a treadmill. I am swimming and doing stretching exercises in the pool at my gym. I am sleeping restfully nearly every night. I have stayed on the Liver Enhancement Diet successfully and have lots more energy and very little pain!
I am very grateful for this nutritional-holistic healing.
Dr. Poli, Nola, and Dr. Rob, Pam, and the girls- Thank you for everything!

Before starting treatment at Alternacare my cholesterol was 350 mg/dl. My triglycerides were 386 mg/dl and eventually went as high as 406. I was very lethargic, my blood pressure and glucose were elevated. I knew I was headed for serious trouble with numbers like these. After 1- 2 weeks of regimen I realized I felt better, had more energy and endurance. At this point my cholesterol is normal, triglycerides – 86, BP-110/70 and glucose has gone from 186 to 130. I am well pleased with my results and would recommend Holistic Wellness to everyone. I really feel this treatment has saved my life.
P.S. The staff is great too!
Thanks

I started coming into “Alternacare Physical Medicine and Rehab" because of my high cholesterol, as I had suffered with it for many years. I also had pain from my head to my toes. I had a lot of stress in my life, and that caused my whole body to ache. I would have constant burning pains in my neck and shoulders. I had suffered with those pains for 6 months before I started my care. My hip had given me problems for 7 years. I had been told that my hip pain was from scar tissue and the only way to make it better was to have surgery to take it out. I had problems with my knees as well. I could not put any pressure on them or bend them without incredible pain. I had problems with my eyes too. They were always dry and itchy. I had tried every kind of eye drops and nothing worked at all. I went to other doctors before I started coming into this clinic. All that they would give me was medicine and I am not a medicine taker. I would take it at night just so that I could sleep, but I would suffer through the day with the pain.
I had been under care at “Alternacare Physical Medicine and Rehab" for only 2 weeks before I started to feel much better. I felt like I had a new body that was pain free. All my pains were a lot better if not gone. My eyes were completely back to normal. I was able to stand and bend without my knees hurting. I have had my cholesterol checked many times since I started care, and it has been back down to normal range from the extremely high range it was in before I started care.
I think that the care at Alternacare is great. I think that the combination of chiropractic care, massage therapy, and stretching therapy is very beneficial. I think that holistic care is absolutely amazing. I would much rather use a holistic health care method to fix a problem than to just take pain pills to ease the pain.

I have been coming to Dr Rob for 7 weeks.
I was at a stage in my life when all the exercise and dieting was not working for me. I could not figure out why I was actually putting on weight, so after reading about Alternacare I decided to give it a try. I am 54 and have some health issues; high cholesterol, high blood pressure and acid reflux. After being under Dr Rob’s care, I have lost 16lbs. My cholesterol is down from 244 to 162 (hoping to stop medication soon). I have learned to eat right and actually enjoy my food. I am happy to say that I am only 10lbs off my goal weight and this will be easy to do, because I have all the right tools to achieve it.
Thank you Dr. Rob and everyone at Alternacare.

I had been unable to lose weight even though I was watching my diet carefully and exercising frequently. After coming to Alternacare, I have lost 22 lbs. My cholesterol has dropped from 204 to 163, and my triglycerides have dropped to 54. I was also having problems with sleeplessness, fatigue and mood swings. All of these have disappeared since coming to Alternacare and following the recommendations.

My doctor was about to put me on medicine for high blood pressure and for my cholesterol. (for the rest of my life). It was my wife’s idea to come to Alternacare for the health and wellness program workshop. I just wanted to feel good again and have energy, the weight loss was a bonus. (Thank you to my wife Debbie) On the first day of the program my Blood pressure was 190/94 after 1 month of the program it was 110/70.
Before starting program my cholesterol count was 198 after 1 month of the program it was 137. Before starting program my triglycerides count was 229 after 1 month of the program it was 83 My heartburn is completely gone. Rosacea gone. Psoriasis gone. Belly Fat gone (lost 39lbs). Fatigue gone. I feel the best I’ve ever felt. Oh yea and I stopped snoring my wife now has to check and make sure I am still breathing. I am working out with a personal trainer 3 days a week and walking 4-5 miles 3 days a week, and can
play all day with my 3 year old grandson. I am happier, healthier and have the energy to the things I could not do a year ago.
Thank you Dr. Poli, Dr. Rob and the entire Alternacare staff
