Yours in Health,
Dr. Wade Anunson
Before Anunson Chiropractic I tried everything...
“I couldn’t function with my day to day tasks because I was having migraines & seizures in my brain. I never knew when I was going to fall over. I ended up on disability with my job and couldn’t take care of my two young children; I would have to hide out to rest all the time. Before coming to Anunson Chiropractic, I felt I had tried everything for this condition; it had been going on for about six months. I saw a neurologist, other physicians, a conventional chiropractor, tried over the counter medication & I even tried things off the internet to get help. Nothing worked.
After a month and a half of receiving adjustments from Dr. Anunson, I noticed significant changes with seizures and migraines. Suddenly I wasn’t falling down all the time. Before, I was having four to five seizures a day and now, some days I don’t have any. I very rarely have a migraine that puts me out of action. It was like I turned a 180!
I can drive again & most of all, I can play with my kids. We go out, we run around, we play tag, and I make them dinner. I can be a mother. My moods are better, I have more feelings of hope & I never expected to get that. I believe that I can get my health back so I can live again.” -R.P., Madison, WI
The results are amazing
“Wade's enthusiasm and knowledge as a chiropractor are a great combination. The results are amazing. He has raised the bar for the level of chiropractic care I expect.” – J.H., Middleton, WI
Quick recovery from a sprained ankle
“When I sprained my ankle while teaching a fitness class, my first instinct was not to see a chiropractor for care. Knowing the integrity of Dr. Anunson and his wife, I decided to see what he could do for my ankle. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly he helped my recovery, getting me back to teaching in no time. Dr. Anunson is filled with energy, positivity and a true passion for healing and educating anyone that walks through his doors.” – A.M., Verona, WI
Dr. Wade is the best practitioner of Chiropractic care I've found
“My lower back was very tight and painful, causing radiating lower left leg pain and general weakness. This was a condition that first appeared in the late 1980's a result of heavy lifting and some bone structure issues. When I founded my own business in 2006, I soon discovered that daily physical work caused my back to become worse, resulting in difficulties simply bending and spending extended time on my feet. I tried three different Chiropractors in Madison with limited results. I was referred to Dr. Wade by another one of his patients.
Dr. Wade is a very observant man, noticing my posture and how I was walking before I sat down and his people skills are excellent. The equipment Dr. Wade used to diagnose my lower back issues is state of the art and extremely accurate but I admit that the Activator Method he uses for treatment had me skeptical initially. But by following Dr. Wade's treatment plan for progressive health I found that there was weekly improvement in my back, beginning with a reduction of pain in the areas affected from the lower back injury itself and finally elimination of pain entirely. I have been pain free now for over 7 months and able to work better and more importantly feel better.
If you suffer from back pain, I highly recommend Dr. Wade and would be happy to talk with any of you personally if you're reluctant to take that first step.” -T.S., Madison, WI
Dr. Wade is full of enthusiasm...
“I have known Wade for almost 4 years via a BNI referral group and have always been impressed with his constant upbeat attitude and desire to always get better. He’s full of enthusiasm. From a care side, I asked my wife to visit with Wade for a back problem that has ailed her for years. She has seen other Chiropractors and really never had anything but short term relief. After seeing Wade for a few months she tells me she feels better than ever. Thanks, Wade.” -D.W., Oregon, WI
Migraine relief... priceless
“Yesterday, I was having a migraine that would normally send me into the ER. My whole body reacts to it; I have body chills, I vomit, my eyes water, I’m completely bed ridden & morphine is the only thing that would usually break the cycle. It’s unbearable. I came to see Dr. Anunson that day, not expecting him to really help me that quickly - even though I trust him.
After my adjustment, I laid down for an hour & when I got up the pain was gone. That has never happened! For me, that is priceless. You can’t be yourself when you have so much pain in your head. I’ve always said that migraines are time stealers & Dr. Anunson saved that time for me. It’s amazing.” – R.P., Rockford, IL
I appreciated Dr. Anunson's truly down-to-earth approach
“He is very easy to interact with. The "Activator" method that he uses for chiropractic treatment is awesome, no lying tensely in wait for a manual bone crack! Dr. Anunson also focuses on a holistic way of treating patients rather than just addressing symptoms.” -V. Deakin, Madison, WI
Great solution for my back problems
“I have been to several chiropractors in the last 15 years and everyone in the past has primarily focused on fixing the immediate issue I had but not gotten to the root of the problem. Dr. Anunson had great insight as to why I had continual back problems and presented me with a great solution and advice to maintain my back health rather than just fix issues that come up.” -N.H., Madison, WI
I highly recommend Dr. Wade Anunson
“I have been treated by two other Chiropractors in the past, but working with Dr. Wade was a whole new experience.
-His level of proficiency with the Activator method of treatment is remarkable. The treatment is pinpoint, comfortable and very effective.
-Dr. Wade's agenda was my agenda. I have felt that previous Chiropractors had a treatment plan in mind for me based on how much money they wanted to make rather than what I really needed or wanted. Dr. Wade offered different options for treatment plans, explained them thoroughly and didn't push me in any direction.
-Dr. Wade and his staff "get it" from the standpoint of being very efficient and proactive. I never wasted time waiting in their office and they even sent e-mail reminders to me for appointments.
I have referred my wife to Dr. Wade due to the fabulous experience I had and we now have a higher level of expectation for the other health care providers we deal with as a result.” –B.P., Fitchburg, WI
Sincere, attentive and correct adjustments
Hi Dr. Wade: Just a note of thanks to you for your sincere, attentive and correct adjustments. Since last Thursday I haven't had a headache or a backache. And I also started using the Zypan faithfully and can't believe how good a job it does for me. Thanks for the reminder.
You and your method is just SO awesome!
Gratefully, -S.S., Mezomanie, WI
I love the treatments here - they are so simple
“For someone considering chiropractic, I would say you have to go to my chiropractor! I love the treatments here – they are so simple. They make you feel good. It’s much smoother than the typical chiropractic care you would get. When you lie on the table, Dr. Anunson goes right to the problem area without you telling him. I’m just amazed at how he just knows & takes care of you. “ –C.C., Madison, WI
If you’re considering chiropractic, come here!
“Within a few minutes of meeting with Dr. Anunson on my first visit, he asked me how my digestion was. I’ve seen so many doctors for issues with that, to the point where I’ve been off & on medications that weren’t working. After receiving adjustments, I noticed that I was digesting my food better & I never expected that to happen. It never entered my mind.
If you’re considering chiropractic, come here! The treatment works, the staff is great – they take care of you every step of the way. They checked in to my insurance, made sure my x-rays were covered & the overall fee is reasonable – I was impressed with it.” –D.E., Madison, WI
They really care!
“Everyone at Anunson Chiropractic is very friendly and they joke around with you. It’s more than just a doctor patient/ staff patient relationship; they really care. You’re not just a number here; my family & I are always greeted by name.” –R.P., Madison, WI
In two weeks I noticed a difference!
“I had talked first with Dr. Wade and his wife Dr. Heather, whom I had met socially. Dr. Wade seemed different than any other chiropractor I had met. He was so excited and energetic that I really wanted to see what his office was all about. For the previous 6 months my back would just be tied up in knots – I couldn’t sleep, I had no energy, and I was having horrible headaches and difficulty tasting my food….it was terrible! I had quit working out because I was in so much pain.
In two weeks I noticed a difference! I now work out regularly. I’m able to run and sit in a chair comfortably…It’s great! One thing I also noticed is that my allergies have gotten a lot better. I am able to concentrate and focus my mind. My husband noticed my energy level increased. He commented that I was back to the old me!” -SL, Madison
I’ve been to all kinds of chiropractors and I’ve never experienced results like this!
“I see guys in rough shape at work and they are half my age. I say look at me… I feel good! My wife found out about Dr. Anunson from a co-worker at UW Hospital. I thought I’d give him a try. I had back & leg problems for 15 years and saw different chiropractors but none of them seemed to help. I’d say I’m 99% better now. In fact, I noticed improvement after 1 month of being adjusted using Activator methods. Now I get out of bed instead of “crawl” out of bed. These are things I don’t take for granted. You see, I went for two years not being able to walk up and down stairs alternating my legs. I had to take the stairs one leg at a time. Big difference!” -RH, Westfield
I’m not new to chiropractic. I’ve been under care since I was 18...
“I exercise very regularly, practice karate and enjoy cardio-kickboxing. Prior to coming to see Dr. Wade, I would do a lot of stretching. That’s how I dealt with my years, and years, and years of low back pain! I met Dr. Wade through a business networking group. My wife and I decided to come in together and get checked out. After a week of this style of chiropractic care, I noticed a change. A lot of my exercises are just more comfortable now.
Since starting a series of chiropractic adjustments and making some diet changes something else really interesting happened for me. Although I am very active – I don’t sweat. I would get my heart rate up and then suffer from slight chest pain and very little perspiration. Now I’m working at heart rates up to 160 with no chest pains… AND I SWEAT! As a business owner, I like to do business with people I know, like and trust. I like the atmosphere and the personnel at Anunson Chiropractic. I really appreciate Dr. Wade and the method of chiropractic that he specializes in.” -MJ, Evansville
After the first 3 weeks, my asthma began to improve...
“I have had asthma since I was three. Dr. Hagen, a retired chiropractor, told us about Dr. Anunson because he felt that the Activator Method would help me with my problem. I have been to many other health providers and I have tried medicine and inhalers, but I still did not feel great. After the first 3 weeks, things began to improve… A LOT! My sinuses began to clear up and I was able to breathe much more easily. I am now able to participate in and enjoy Gym class. I wasn’t able to do that before. I have already referred Dr. Anunson to my mom and to some of my friends!” -KS, Mazomanie
Trouble breathing while running...
“I just completed my senior year of high school where I competed on the cross country team. For the past 4-5 years I have been frustrated because I have had trouble with my breathing while running, yet I love to run! I have gone to my family MD and a sports medicine doctor to try to figure out what the problem is, but neither of them had answers or a solution for me.
Within a week of starting care, I noticed a difference! Running became a lot easier- I could also run faster and didn’t get sore as easily. I was better physically…ran faster, less pain and physically felt more relaxed. At the beginning of the season, I was hoping to just be on the team and be able to run. I remember when I met Dr. Anunson, telling him that “I really enjoy running, but that I’m not that good.”
Amazingly, as I got adjusted, my pain got better and better, my breathing improved and suddenly running seemed easier. So much so that I started out on the JV team and ended up on Varsity as the #2 runner for my high school team! Aside from the great results, I like the relaxed atmosphere at Anunson Chiropractic, and that the appointments always fit my schedule.” -MM, Verona
I had been having constant back and neck pain all the time...
“Every year, it became worse than the year before, and I could not stand it anymore. I avoided anything that involved twisting. I had to rest all the time and I didn’t feel good very often. One day, I would feel okay, and then the next day, I would feel as if I had been hit by a car. I hated how it affected my life. I now feel consistent on a day to day basis. I can now work out without the pain. I have better movement and I feel more athletic. I no longer have the constant nagging pain in my back.
I am not normally a grumpy guy, but when my back hurt, I was pretty grumpy. Dr. Anunson is the best chiropractor that I have ever met. He has helped me more than anyone else. I like the Activator Method that he uses versus the twisting and banging that I used to experience. I think that this method is more technical and consistent than any other. I can feel the difference more quickly.” -CQ, Madison
After one week of care at Anunson Chiropractic I noticed big changes...
“I met Dr. Anunson when he came to my workplace to speak on proper lifting and injury prevention. He talked about correcting nerve function in a different way than any chiropractor I had been to. I had tried other chiropractors, medical treatment, and had full G.I. testing and treatment trying to end the back and foot pain that I have been living with for 23 years. I never thought that chiropractic could help some of my ongoing health problems.
After one week of care at Anunson Chiropractic I noticed big changes, after two weeks it was amazing, and after one month things were clearing up that I didn’t think anything could be done about! After two months, I feel like I did 15 years ago! A problem I had with my eyes very much improved, and my stomach problems are almost completely gone! The pain in my shoulders that was so severe that I could not roll over in bed is gone. I am now able to rise from bed normally, walk normally and comfortably, eat normally, I am taking less medicine, I sleep better, and the best of all – I have lots more energy left at the end of the day. I like Anunson Chiropractic’s personalized care and the holistic approach.” -BB, Middleton
Excruciating daily migraines...
“I had been under chiropractic care since 1992 for excruciating daily migraines and I had reached a plateau. While still seeking relief, I was introduced to the Activator Method in the Summer of 2006 by Dr. Hagen, a retired chiropractor, who fills in temporarily at other chiropractic offices. I was very curious about this new chiropractic technique, and so I went online to seek more information. That is how I discovered Dr. Anunson. Dr. Anunson has an advanced proficiency rating as a practitioner of the Activator Method. I began seeing Dr. Anunson in January of 2007. Since that time, I have experienced only 1 migraine! And now I rarely take any kind of medication. The results have been amazing!
I am still in disbelief that Dr. Anunson is able to pinpoint the exact location of my pain. I am once again enjoying life. Dr. Anunson has provided me with results that I have never experienced before. He is extremely knowledgeable and truly committed to his patients’ well-being. I attribute my new found sense of health to the Activator Method and the outstanding quality of care that I have received from Dr. Anunson.” -SD, Black Earth
Able to communicate more easily and think more clearly...
“I’m 25 years old, but when I was 5, I was diagnosed with ADD. I have been to many different doctors since that time, and have been on several different medications which didn’t solve my problem. As an adult, I have done my own research trying to solve my health problem. I read that some people may have a misalignment in their spine that can cause symptoms similar to ADD – lack of focus, decreased brain function, and digestive issues to name a few.
After my 3rd adjustment, I noticed that I was able to communicate more easily and think more clearly. My family and friends have noticed that I am able to do things more quickly. But more importantly, their comments about how much I am frustrating them have decreased. I feel like I have found the key to unlocking my ability to be well.” -TB, Madison
