Last year my health took a downward turn. The medical doctors eventually diagnosed Chrones disease in too many areas of my intestines. A friend introduced me to a diet-The Specific Carb Diet- book is called “Breaking The Vicious Cycle by Elaine Sottschall” Another friend introduced me to Dr. Dean and for that, I am big time grateful.
Within a couple months, I started feeling stronger and in three months came off some of the medication. I recently had some health tests and after only 6 months of seeing Dr. Dean and staying fairly loyal to the diet my medical doctor announced I was in remission!!! Yeah Dr. Dean, Yeah God!!!!!!
When I received a Christmas card in the mail from my Mother-in Law I was very interested in getting my spine checked. For about a year before I had received the card I was having horrible headaches, sinus problems, hip pain & clicking in my neck and hips. I have tried chiropractors in the past but I did not receive any explanations as to why I felt the way I did, when I called the lighthouse chiropractic centre I was greeted by Janice who was very friendly and helpful. The first information meeting really helped me to understand why I needed to see a chiropractor to heal properly. Since I have started the clicking in my neck has “stopped”, my headaches are less frequent, and the pain in my hips is less. In January I had also started to eat more healthy, three meals a day with healthy snacks, I had cut down on drinking coffee, sugar, and fatty foods. I am now exercising more, and I feel great!!!
Dr. Dean has helped me feel better from the inside out!

After three knee operations, and 7 years of pain in both knees, pain killers (did not work entirely), knee brace (helped about 50% of the pain), orthotics (helped some), but after this I still limped and in pain. It was time to try something else. The something else came along in November, 2006 at the Home Depot, when Dr. Dean and Janice were on site giving a complimentary spinal exam of the neck and a follow up consultation. I went for it, and to this day I am glad that I did. Wow! What a difference in my life style, more energy, very little pain in my knees, none in my back and neck, walking more upright. Also due to the fact I have flat feet, orthotics are now being used on regular basis.
Chiropractic care is a science within itself; not only treating but educating patients on their difficulties and what approach can be done to lessen pain or in some cases alleviate it all together. The past six months have gone by very quickly and with very little effort, from the lively welcome when you enter the office, to the treatments, and consultations, it has been a welcomed relief. Thank you, Thank you.

In the past few years my back deteriorated to the point that it was often sore. Occasionally, if I lifted a heavy lead my lower back felt like it had seized. The last time this happened, April 2007, I decided that it was time to talk to my Son-In-Law Dr. Dean about a course of treatments. Since then I have a “New” back, and life is much more comfortable.

I started with Dr. Dean in January, 2007. My husband and I were introduced to the centre by a friend through the Christmas card event from the centre. I did not have many symptoms bus was intrigued by the opportunity to be assessed. My neck has been the area of concern for many years as I have felt it was stiff & painful in some of the daily movements.
Through Dr. Dean’s education of the spine, I have learned o the importance in keeping a healthy aligned spine. The perspective of healing from the inside our made a lot of since to me. I have been open to trying new ways to move to a healthier lifestyle so I decide that this chiropractic care was a worthy choice.
Changes have been subtle but I have noticed that I have more flexibility and less pain in my lower neck now after 6 months of adjustments.
I certainly feel good about doing something positive for myself and overall health.
A very important difference at Lighthouse Chiropractic Centre is the feeling of being part of the family. Both Janice and Dr. Dean are warm and welcoming and have created a centre that reflects their vision. The care and concern for others shown at this centre provides positive and powerful learning opportunities to the clients. Thank you for your care!

On may 25, 2002 I have injured my back, I was sitting around a lot, gained a lot of weight, and I had also developed blockages in my legs, which would swell from the knees down to my feet, and I was in constant pain so I went to my family doctor and he had prescribed pain killers and muscle relaxants, I didn’t know where to turn. The pain and swelling in my legs were so bad that I could not walk from my bedroom to the kitchen, I could not even stand in line at the grocery store, and it was too painful.
In June, 2006 I decide to take a different approach, I had meet Dr. Dean at a local community event, the Aurora street festival, at that time I would carry a small chair with me, so every few steps I would take a seat. When I approached the Lighthouse chiropractic booth and I had spoken with Dr. Dean, I knew that chiropractic is my only hope, after a few visits I could feel the beginning of the healing process, and after three months of care I really felt a difference, and I stopped taking my pain medication. “I know now that I can have a life free from pain, the blockages in my legs are insignificant, the swelling has disappeared, and I can walk without pain again”.
My advice to everyone and anyone is to try chiropractic care; I believe that it had saved my life.

After a serious car accident and years hunched in front of a computer, my neck and back were slowly degenerating. Like most people it was not something I thought about and I was skeptical of chiropractic care.
I would get headaches or migraines daily and constant tension in my neck and back and shoulders, but I would take some pills and think nothing of it.
About 6 months ago I happened to walk by a free chiropractic analysis with Janice and Dr. Dean, like everyone else there I though “hey, why not” it’s free!! After hearing Dr. Dean’s concern about my condition, I decide to go for the information session. When I was properly informed about chiropractic care and the spine and nervous system, I knew this was going to be the best investment I would ever make. My headaches come once a week, instead of everyday, and I haven’t has a migraine in months, my posture is much better, and I even had to adjust my headrest and rearview mirror in my care, twice! I never thought that five minutes a day for 2 or 3 times a week would make me feel better in so many ways.
Words cannot describe the appreciation I have for the care, time, knowledge, and friendliness that Janice and Dr. Dean provide. Thank you!!

I was introduced to Dr. Dean through a friend that was getting treatments for back pain. I had never suffered from back problems in the past, but it was recommend starting chiropractic treatments in order to correct my posture & help with general health and well being. I have been seeing Dr. Dean for over a year, Wow! & I can see myself walking straight and more comfortable. I work at a computer all day & I feel that Dr. Dean’s treatments have been helping counter the negative effects that can be caused from working at a desk all day. I find the office very inviting and informative, and would recommend it to anyone.

Dear Dr. Dean…Three months ago I came to you because I was desperate looking for relief from the soreness of my lower back, upper back, neck, and leg pains. The pain started on my lower back five years ago and with the progress of time the left part of my body deteriorated. I was having migraines every day and this had started to affect my work to the point where I felt I needed to stop working. This was a very scary point in my life because I am only 46 years old and I find fulfillment in my work, I also enjoy sports such as swimming, rollerblading and biking, but I stopped doing them too. I also had difficulty driving, especially making a lane change as I could not move my head and neck to check my blind spots. To better describe myself I was broken.
I was very skeptical of chiropractic care when I came to you and I listened to your seminar, I was still undecided, never the less I gave it a try because I was desperate. I diligently came for my treatments and slowly week after week I felt small improvements happening, my arms did not feel heavy, nor did my fingers tingle. I could also sit for a longer period of time and feeling tall after each treatment. I could move my neck without pain. Without these pains, a new outlook came about, a feeling of strong positive energy every morning that I wake up.
