Your Visit to the UpCenter
Are you interested in getting rid of your neck or back pains, your headaches, your sinus issues, carpal tunnel, or even reclaiming your deeper level health?Are you tired of taking too many drugs, or having doctors do a lot of expensive tests—and then not really doing anything particularly useful for you? Do you feel like you're not getting the personalized service that you think you deserve?
If you answered yes to any of the above, you owe it to yourself to make an appointment at The UpCenter. By following the links, you can find out what to expect from our treatments, how to make an appointment, what insurance networks we participate in, what specials we offer, and read testimonials from our patients.
Though we cannot promise that you'll get your health back in that shortest time we would all like, we can promise to do things to change the momentum of your life, health–wise. In many ways, we are the opposite of a specialist who focuses only on one thing. We believe we can help most people. Why? Because we provide what most people today lack—balance of natural health principles. The well–being of our head and sinuses, our neck, lower back, and organs are all dependant upon the balanced flow and invigoration of these natural principles within us.
What unifies all the variety of things that we work on is our ability to apply a set of "natural health principles" to any part of the body, and any health issue, any body "dis–ease." Again, it does not mean we will be treating your stomach ulcer, or your prostate. We will be applying "natural health principles" to you, so as to reawaken, reinvigorate and finally, to help you to reclaim your health, naturally.
As we work together we will find certain parts of your body improving, and possibly other weak parts coming to the surface, looking for more focused therapeutic attention. Generally these are more subtle problems. They may show up as different organ related symptoms, or musculoskeletal issues. Even as this occurs, patients often know they are on the right track; they do feel measurably better. We are often retracing a distortion pattern, or a physiological weakness back to its origin—so as to finally remove it.
Our goal is to take the time needed to help you find a more natural health. Your natural health therapies may involve Cranio–Sinus therapies, nutritional supports, spinal adjustments, acupuncture point stimulation, posture work, walking instructions, breathing therapies, Chinese herbs, exercises, and even more.
We recommend that you give us a call as soon as you've decided you're ready to feel better, naturally. We'll find a time to get you in for your first visit, a Natural Health/ Whole Body Consultation. We typically can get a new patient scheduled within 1–2 weeks, sometimes sooner.
During your first visit you will go over your health history. Dr. Walsdorf will listen as you tell him about all the concerns, fears, prior doctors' attempts to help you. If you have any blood chemistries, or x–rays, we recommend that you bring them in at that time. We recommend loose fitting clothes during that and all visits.
Dr. Walsdorf is a participating provider in BC/BS and many other insurance networks. However, all it covers are spinal adjustments, or a basic office visit. We have special programs for people with or without insurance to make our services more affordable than are most doctors' office visits for comparable face–to–face, quality time spent with them during one's office visits.
Call us up and say something on the order of "I'm ready to move upward health–wise" (don't feel too foolish saying it, practice it even, because we only want you if you are ready!). When you do, you get your initial office consultation at half price—saving you $25.00!
"I was suffering with headaches weekly. The cranial work that Dr. Walsdorf did really changed my life. I get my headaches only occasionally now!"
— Judy M.
"I have been coming for treatments for over a year. Each time I leave Dr. Walsdorf's office I feel more relaxed. Over time I have had less back discomfort and the ache in my ankle and elbow has disappeared."
— Linda R.
"Dr. W has a way of making you feel better in body and mind. When I first came here I knew he was the best and always got me on track. I've been to a lot of chiropractors, and I never feel as good as Dr. W makes me feel. I tell a lot of people, he's the only chiropractor that has helped me. I have Lupus and his guidance and adjustments have helped me more than any Dr I have been to. I don't take medicine only vitamins and Doc Howard's adjustments. The UpCenter is a real stress relief, and a very relaxing environment — good people and great care.
I wouldn't go to anyone else. I don't know what I would do without Doctor Howard. He's the best, spiritually, and has a good sense of well–being.
I'm the only person with lupus and fibromyalgia that I know who doesn't do badly — I do better than most when I stay on track. That's by the guidance from Doctor Howard, and his adjustments."
— Ginger Parker
"Dr. Walsdorf helped me when I had migraine headaches during menopause days. 20 years later he still 'fixes' me when neck stress or back pain brings me back. I am very grateful."
— Grace F.
"Relieved hip joint pain, neck pain, lower back discomfort and also successful cranial work to help with my allergies and sinuses. I no longer take allergy pills that I've been on for five years. My posture and overall body feels better than it has in a long time. Thanks Dr. Walsdorf."
— Ron Mc Donald.
"Dr. Walsdorf was able to pinpoint my problem when other doctors couldn't. He explains what he is doing and what the procedure is for. Recommends at–home therapies. The staff is knowledgeable, courteous and fun. Makes me look forward to going to the doctor."
— Jim Rayo
"I'm a lot more aware of where and why I'm injured. I get treatment for my back and also food for thought on prevention of mental and physical problems."
— Anonymous
"An easy experience — comfortable setting. Not like a regular doctor's visit — relaxing. Fixes the whole body, not just the ailment."
— Katrina McDonald
"Dr. Walsdorf takes the time to get to the root causes of problems. It's that attention and concern that makes all the difference."
— Kevin Hayes
"Dr. Walsdorf is much more than a chiropractor. He is an honest, patient, caring person committed to helping each individual with their health and well–being. I can honestly say that I do not know how I would have gotten to the healthy state that I am in today since my car accident (years ago) without Dr. Walsdorf and his caring staff. My family members feel the same way as well. Thank you, The UpCenter."
— Kristina Kassel
"Dr. Howard's comprehensive approach to health care can benefit people of all ages and all levels of activity. Weekly visits have drastically decreased my daily discomfort. My work on the SU Crew Team has been helped by what he has done."
— Michael Dietrick
"I came to Dr. W through a good friend many years ago. She spoke so highly of him and his office that I had to see for myself. I am now a believer. I look forward to each visit as I know he will get me back on track.
Dr. W. has a kind, gentle, encouraging way about him. He will listen intently, then go to work healing mind and body. I can't say enough nice things about the UpCenter. I look forward to every visit. :)
