Actual Patients

My lower back pain was very intense (10/10) from throwing it out shoveling and a horse accident 8 years ago. Upper back and neck was 8/10 from car accident. Neck and upper back pain mostly gone and lower back pain is down to a 2/10. I have tried multiple doctors and therapies before this and I would recommend Dr. Stewart.

I had pain in my neck that kept coming back. I had gone to several other chiropractors, but the pain kept coming back until I tried Dr. Stewart. Now I am pain free and can move my neck easily without pain.

Andrea Clubb 11-28-11 Schererville, IN

I came to Dr. Stewart because of a chronic lower back and shoulder problem. On a 0-10 scale my pain was severe (8-10/10). In the middle of treatment I also hurt my neck (10/10 severe pain with that one). My neck pain was gone within a couple visits. My back pain is gone and my shoulder is also pain free now. I had received a lot of treatment for these issues from other therapists and doctors before coming to the Spine Institute without much success at all. Dr. Stewart has accomplished what several others could not.

Five fractured bones on the right leg, plate and six screws, extraordinary pain. I started walking without crutches after 6-8 sessions, pain disappeared about the same time. I am back in my roofing business! They could not believe I was walking without crutches on my first follow up with the surgeon. I would definitely recommend the spine institute of Schererville.

I would highly recommend him to anyone who has problems due to spine or disc degeneration. Thank you Dr. Stewart!

Knee and Hip problems

I came to the Spine Institute of Schererville with low back pain and intense neck pain with turning. In just 3 visits my pain is gone. Amazing!!!

Low back pain (Chronic and/or severe)

I had thrown my back out at work. On the scale of 1-10 it was a definite 9.5 plus. After the 1st visit, I couldn’t believe how much better it was. After the 3rd visit I would say that it was the best my back had felt in years. He was a far different Doctor than I had gone to in the past, and now, I’ll never go to any other chiro. A hundred times over, thank you Dr. Stewart

After sudden onset of severe lower back pain I had to just lie flat due to the pain. After going to the Spine Institute of Schererville my back pain is completely gone. I feel as though I can do anything but will continue to be cautious and do the recommended exercises.

There’s nothing mysterious about chiropractic. It’s a natural method of health care that focuses on treating the causes of physical problems, rather than just treating the symptoms. Chiropractic is based on a simple but powerful premise. With a normally functioning spine and healthy nerve system, your body is better able to heal itself. That’s because your spine is the lifeline of your nervous system. It controls feeling, movement, and all function through your body.

I first called Dr. Stewart’s office on a Saturday afternoon expecting to leave a voice mail. He stayed late and got me in that day. I had been having intense head aches and neck pain. Those pains all resolved. I recommended my wife and son come in and they also got good results from his practice. Thanks to Dr. Stewart and Amy, I currently feel great.

Jack Barton Beecher, IL

I could not make through the winters without steroids and multiple pain medications and I still had a hard time walking and staying in any prolonged positions. Now I am off steroids down to my regular weight and can move a lot more than I ever could. He is a miracle worker. His bed side manner is wonderful and his staff are great. I cannot give them enough accolades to express how grateful I am.
