Testimonial

(If you have a testimonial about the excellent care that you've received at Life Wellness Center that you would like to let everyone know about, please contact one of our staff.)

"I started coming to Life Wellness Center last February. I had lost a lot of mobility in my body from 8 previous surgeries, and three years of my body trying to protect itself. I had lost two inches of my height, could not stand up straight, walked with a limp, and could not put my socks on my feet. I was desperate for help and relief from the pain that I was constantly in. I talked about this with a friend from my bible fellowship, and they recommended Dr. Shannon, and Life Wellness Center to me, and it changed my life. I can now stand up straight, my limp is nearly gone, I am no longer in pain, I gained back the two inches of my height that I had lost, and I can now put my socks on after 3 years of feeling like an inviolate. My thankfulness to the entire staff at Life Wellness Center, from the ladies up front, to Dr. Shannon, (and Dr. Tom for his assistance,) to Tom, the physical therapist, to his assistant Tom, to Andrew, who is everyone's assistant, to the staff that does massage, and to every part of that wonderful God sent team. Coming to your center has totally changed my life. You all have my thankfulness, and my total trust! Thank you from the bottom of my heart."

How To Finish Great in 08'!

Life Wellness Center and Puravida Fitness have teamed up with three other highly respected Lakeville health, fitness and wellness professionals to host THE event of the year.
It's a 2-hour extravaganza called...
"How To Finish Great In 08!"

The focus of the entire event is YOU, your body, your appearance and your health - because without your health, what do you really have?

This Blueprint for Success will provide the strategies and techniques that radically and rapidly improve your quality of life and will raise much needed funds for the Community Action Council.

You will have an opportunity to win some of the $700 in prizes we will be giving away at the event. Wait until you see what we have in store for you!

We are hosting this event for three reasons:

1. We want to give back to the wonderful Lakeville community that supports our businesses.

2. We want to challenge residents to get back on track with their health and fitness goals.

3. We want to raise money for a very worthy charitable organization.

We are not charging anything for you to attend "How To Finish Great In 08!" - all we ask is that you make a $10 tax-deductible donation to the Community Action Council. The Community Action Council will have a representative at the event to collect your donation and provide you with a receipt for tax purposes.
So you can help yourself and help others at the same time.

Go to our website to get all the details about "How To Finish Great In 2008!"

- Neck, shoulder and lower back pain.

- Misalignment of the vertebra (subluxations).

- Numbness in the arms and fingers.

- Headaches.

- Postural misalignment.

- Abnormal gait.

- Disc herniation.
