Stephanie W. knew her health was on the decline and that she could be feeling a lot better. She saw people around her who were patients of MHWC making positive lifestyle changes and reaping the health rewards. She wanted that for herself. The months of not sleeping because of hot flashes, suffering from irritable bowel, medicating herself to try and help her cholesterol and thyroid numbers, and being overweight and not fitting into her clothes were taking their toll on how she felt inside and out.
“the things we used to do, or what we were taught, are not always the best thing for us.”
- Stephanie W.
Stephanie decided enough was enough and began her journey to better health in May 2008. After listening to her situation and concerns, we looked at how her body was functioning as a whole. It was determined that a detoxification program and making some lifestyle modifications would be the right course of action. Stephanie admits her initial thoughts of making these changes were almost frightening, but within 10 days, she began feeling completely better. She then realized that the program really wasn’t nearly as bad as she thought it would be. Within 24 days, she had lost 11 pounds and was able to fall asleep easily, without terrible hot flashes.
Stephanie now has a new outlook on life and realizes “the things we used to do, or what we were taught, are not always the best thing for us.” She still cannot believe the good results she has achieved and highly recommends the holistic approach at MHWC to others who may be suffering from unnecessary illness.

We met Wendy W. In September 2008. Wendy was struggling to get through her day. She was not feeling well (miserable in fact) and this impacted her whole family. She did not like the person she was becoming because of how her headaches, vertigo and low energy impacted her life.
“The program has changed the way I think, drink, and eat.”
- Wendy
When speaking with Wendy, it was evident that she greatly wanted to feel better and be healthier for herself and her family. She was not willing to just live with the symptoms as she had been told to do by other doctors.
We were able to pinpoint for Wendy why she was feeling the way she was and why her health was on the decline. After following her individualized program for 1 ½-2 months, Wendy’s life has changed significantly. “The program has changed the way I think, drink, and eat. It was exactly what I needed to regain the person I’ve always wanted to be. My health has been renewed and my attitude has changed in such a positive way. I am so much healthier and happier.”

Melissa's life changed in May 2009. Melissa had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and bi-polar. Despite being on seven medications that were supposed to make her feel better, she felt she was in a downward spiral. With constant digestive problems, poor sleep, headaches, back and leg pain, she was unable to clean homes, walk, or have a social life. What bothered her most was that her confidence and self esteem were low and getting lower all the time. She questioned if the medications were helping, but she didn't want to stop them for fear things would get even worse. As she felt worse, she was prescribed more and more medication. She saw her family doctor, OB/GYN, therapist, psychologist and neurologist who all told she is the best they could do and she would have to learn to live with it. Melissa always knew at some level there had to be something else. AND...that is when she stumbled (almost literally) into us at a local family health fair.
After listening to what was really going on with Melissa, we were able to pinpoint some problems within her body that needed to be corrected and balanced again. Through chiropractic and a targeted nutrition program, Melissa has lost a lot of weight, has greater energy, her headaches are gone, her thinking is much clearer, her social life is picking up again, and she is able to work without pain.
Melissa is still getting used to all the attention and questions she gets as she sees people she hasn’t seen in a while who do not recognize her. She gladly tells them how she got where she is today and continues to enjoy her newfound health and vitality. She would definitely recommend Muskego Health & Wellness to other people looking to regain their health and their lives.
