Diane "Dee" KittleDiane “Dee” Kittle was 19 years old when she woke up unable to move her neck and was starting a new job the next day.  She contacted a chiropractor, had X-rays and her first adjustment that day, reporting to her new job fully functional. That was nearly 49 years ago and Dee has been in chiropractic care ever since!

“Chiropractic has been an ongoing part of my health care and critical to my overall well being. I suffered a significant injury to my lower back as a teenager and was told in my twenties that I would likely need surgery on my L4 and L5 vertebrae before I turned forty.”

Dee’s mother had extensive back surgery at forty that left her in a body brace for nearly a year, followed by years of recovery. After years of pain medication and unresolved issues, she agreed to see a chiropractor in her late fifties, which changed her life.

I was determined to care for my vertebrae, avoiding surgery at all costs.

Over the years, Dee has experienced acute issues, primarily with her neck and lower back.  The first 20 years of her career required lots of travel and hours sitting at a desk and on the phone. The past 17 years, Dee has owned a bakery, baking and decorating cakes, which results in a lot of repetitive motion, heavy lifting and standing for an average of 11-12 hours a day.

Each time she’s experienced subluxations, Dee has been treated and relieved of pain through chiropractic. Maintaining her spine through regular adjustments limits and prevents acute occurrences, until a recent car accident, which currently brings her to Dr. D three times weekly.

Dr. D became the first doctor I made as part of my wellness plan when I moved to Connecticut in 1999. His staff has always been caring, attentive and a pleasure to see, as is Dr. D himself. I know I’m in the best care with Dr. D and his team!

"Being a fitness instructor and lifetime athlete, it is important that I keep my body healthy and moving. Pat DeFrancesco has been a huge help in this process. He is extremely knowledgeable, but more importantly he truly cares about my wellness & well being. He goes above and beyond & I feel lucky to have him on my wellness team. He leads by example in all areas of health & to me that is so important. Pat and team are top notch!"

"I have been a patient for over a year and have seen terrific results from my plan of care. I was introduced to the office by a friend after I told him I was having back pain. The staff and doctors have been outstanding. They took some x-rays and ruled out certain things and put me on a plan of care that helped get me straight and pain free. I can't thank them enough."

"Best Chiropractic center in the State. I went to three chiropractors and none of them got my lower back back into place. I went to see Dr. D. and he snapped me back to normal in the first visit. Look no further. This place is the pinnacle of Chiropractic."

"I lost my cousin (who was also a lifelong best friend) tragically back in November and happened to mention it during an adjustment, and a few days later, I received a handwritten sympathy card from Dr. Joe and the team. Things like that go a long way! I recommend CHCG without reservation."

"My whole family goes to Chiropractic Health Center of Glastonbury. My other half has been getting adjustments for years and he has been the driving force for the family to get checked out. He says since he has been coming here, if his back has any issues or is out, it seems to get better much faster than ever before. If you've had any problems with your back, you'll know that speaks volumes. We trust this group!"

In addition, Dr. Keith Wade is knowledgeable, passionate about his craft, patient and thorough in answering questions. As a direct result of all that, my low back, ankles an knees feel much better, I am in less pain, and I am less afraid that my back will keep hurting or "going out." I am very grateful."

"If I could give more than five stars, I wouldn't hesitate to do so. The office staff are all very professional and accommodating. There have been several instances where I had to make a last minute change to my appointment - either a cancellation or different time - and the office responded right away to make it happen. Not only this, but my appointments are always quick, yet very efficient. The doctors take their time in addressing my questions and explaining things so that I receive the best possible care."
