Reviews of Whole Body Chiropractic

Jim Rose

My experience over the last two weeks has been superb. They listen to the individual. They explain how the body works and how their chiropractic approach works. And then, candidly, their approach works. I went from very severe pain due to martial arts over-training (among other ailments) to very positive recovery. Oh, and the people are very loving, caring, and very-nice human beings! At the minimum speak to them for free!

Rebekah Stillwell

I came in not knowing what to expect. The wonderful aura of cinnamon and warmth throughout the place was an amazing beginning. The helpful care from the staff throughout my experience was over the top!! I felt truly cared for. They gave me somewhat instant relief, helpful information, and hope for my condition getting better. I 100% look forward to my next visit.

Patricia Collins

So glad to find Dr. Reema and her friendly office. The Doctor is patient and knowledgeable. The office technology is up to date and the office atmosphere is relaxed. Finding relief for a chronic spine issue is making a difference in quality of life!

Cindy Meehan-Patton

I have only been to Reema a few times for a difficult diagnosis. Because I was married to a Chiropractor and have have extensive experience with and in the field, I'm skeptical of healing through this method. It has been a great maintenance tool for decades of spine related challenges as well as acute and chronic illness. Immediately I sensed that Reema is different. That perhaps she really is a gifted and wise physician. She seems to intrinsically care. Juliana is kind and professional. I'm thankful to be in their care during such a hard time. I will review again as I move through my treatment program. You will find that I'm very honest. 2/13/23 After 6 out of the 12 treatments I had to stop and get a refund because my symptoms began to get worse. I have since gone to my prior chiropractor and started feeling better. I've also been to a Spine MD who is not convinced of the diagnosis Reema gave me. So I am getting a follow up MRI to verify. In the meantime because of the alarming diagnosis I received from Reema I have stopped any type of jarring exercises that could further injure me. I will continue this review.

Leigh Anne Sullivan

Through the years, I’ve suffered with chronic neck and back pain. I’ve been adjusted by many Chiropractors during that time. But, I can honestly say that Merrimon Chiropractic truly provides the most effective adjustments I’ve ever experienced! So, if you’re dealing with any kind of pain… Merrimon Chiropractic is who you need to call.

Mackenzie Evans

Beautiful and clean office! Juliana is great at breaking down insurance and what to expect cost wise. Love the vibration therapy, and can’t wait to reach my goals with Dr. Reema!

Teresa Courtney

For a long time I had pain in my lower back and also both of my knees. This made walking up the stairs and sleeping through the night difficult. After just 2 visits I was pain free and playing my beloved pickleball as if I were 15 years younger.

Melissa Chapman

I came to Merrimon Family Chiropractic about six months ago in hopes of getting help with my constant extreme body pain and my extreme lack of energy. The treatment modalities and the excellent chiropractic adjustments have brought me to a state of pleasant comfort and I have more energy than I dreamed was possible. The doctors and staff are kind, caring, friendly, and light hearted. This is the place to go if you want your body and health restored!

Sara Hollier

I came to this practice with very little experience in chiropractic care, a lot of pain, and doctors suggesting I meet with a spinal surgeon to correct some neck issues (that didn’t necessarily need surgery or pain meds- just a little work). The staff was able to create a plan and schedule for me, along with some “homework”. I’ve been going there for almost 2 years and I can’t believe how great I feel! The staff are so nice and welcoming, and I love the doctors. I highly recommend this practice!

Esther Hansen

What a truly wonderful and healing place. I love the incredible staff and their honest work. Highest compliments to WNC Holistic Center. Juliana is cool. (please put me on the wall)

Mary Stewart

The care & treatments I've received from MFC have kept an old injury from causing further pain and allow me to maintain my quality of life. The doctors and staff genuinely care for the welfare of their patients and are constantly striving to improve in any way they can.

Mikey Laurens

Suffering a strained muscle and a pinched nerve, I came here seeking help and adjustment for my recovery. Dr Fortini and Juliana were very helpful in listening and addressing all of my concerns. Before my first visit, I had very limited range of motion and sharp pain throughout my body. One week later after two adjustments, I can move my neck and arms freely with no pain. The treatment works and is loads better than any medication I was prescribed to mask the pain. Here, your discomfort is addressed at the root and I’m confident to say that the wellness of the patients at Merrimon Family Chiropractic is the primary focus of the practice.

Charlene Plemmons

The Staff at Merrimon Family Chiropractic are always courteous and kind. And I always leave feeling refreshed and ready to tackle the rest of my day ! A great investment!

Jillian Landon

We are so thankful for Dr. Rick, Juliana, Esther, and Farmer as our new favorite people and home away from home. This is an amazing team and we are so happy to have them as part of our family wellness maintenance.

Donovan Nordellia

I have never been to the chiropractor before coming to Merrimon Family Chiropractic and I was really nervous. The staff is warm and kind, the atmosphere is welcoming, and I always leave feeling better than when I came.

Ramona Williams

I enjoy going to Merrimon Family Chiropractic. The staff is friendly and professional and work together like a family. When I started going to see them I did not realize how bad I had been feeling until I started feeling better. I have dealt with shoulder and neck pain for so long that I just don't remember not having it. Now I am moving much more easily and freely and with no pain! Thanks to the wonderful staff and doctor's at Merrimon Family Chiropractic I continue to feel better every day.

Francesca Dowd

Amazing! Dr Kristen and staff are so kind and supportive! I had laser and adjustment today after a fall and I feel I’m in the healing path and road of recovery! Thank you 🙏🏼 thank goodness for Merrimon Chiropractic and awesome staff! …

Lenny Pettinelli

I was injured and came to them for help because they were referred to me by two people on the same day. They've really helped my back and neck in tremendous ways. I am certain it would have been far more difficult to recover if I hadn't come to them for chiropractic adjustments. All the doctors and staff are kind and supportive and it feels like a great environment for healing. They are great at what they do and I would strongly recommend them to anyone.

Rosemary Morgan

Such a professional, welcoming, kind and caring group of people. From front desk Sarah through Serenity on to Dr. K - everyone is focused on helping clients feel better in a very upbeat holistic atmosphere. It's a beautiful up to date facility in every way!

Bill Asbell

There is such a positive attitude about all the improvements we can make together. Not scary at all, very gentle and sharing what we are doing and why.

Kathleen Johnson

My husband and I have been going to Merrimon Family Chiropractic for approximately five months now. I attend Asheville Community Yoga and am very happy that Merrimon Family Chiropractic was there giving spinal evaluations so that I became aware of them. I had my x-rays and started treatment in April. I felt so much better right from the very beginning, and had my husband start there as well. I am a senior and had been diagnosed with a degenerate hip. The idea of surgery is a non idea to me. However, at times walking without pain was not easy. Not only did Merrimon Family Chiropractic concentrate on my spinal and neck adjustments, but they have adjusted my hip so that I rarely have pain now when walking. My husband tends to overwork on our property, and as a result suffers from back pain. Particularly, Dr. Ben has been working with him, and helping him feel better. They are a great group of individuals, and make it truly enjoyable to attend. The doctors at Merrimon Family Chiropractic are a very caring group who seem truly interested in having you feel the best possible. I am very happy that I started treatment with them, and intend to maintain treatments and maintenance in order to feel the best I can at all times.

Ann Weber

Realigned and Revived I came in with knots, kinks, and some parts of my body just refusing to speak to others. After a friendly greeting and a short wait, I got a good brief massage, a thorough "reading" of my body's condition, and a wonderful adjustment ... So just a short time later, I realized, suddenly the knots were unraveled, the components are communicating again, and everything is flowing like music. As I left and walked down to the lot, I even felt light on my feet, as if I were dancing. An hour earlier I'd had trouble moving without pain, but after Michael's therapeutic contact, I already felt strong and fluid, ready to go, and to do what needed to be done -- and more. This is my reliable, typical experience at Merrimon Family Chiropractic. They know me and can read on my face or hear in my voice what I might need. Each member of the staff responds with interest and caring. They don't just realign my spine, they also seem to revive my spirit and restore my energy. Each individual there is a consummate professional, an engaged and compassionate individual. I feel cared for and supported and restored. Their advice, recommended exercises or stretches always work. Even the informative health tips on the waiting room screen are educational and helpful. I learn something valuable every time I visit. Thanks for being such good listeners (very important with a wordy person like myself), so good-natured, and so generous. It really is sustaining. I'll see you next month, if I can wait that long, so you can "straighten me out" again!

Melisha Mullins

My sharp neck pain is gone, and my lower back pain is much more tolerable now thanks to Dr Martin and the lovely staff at Merrimon Family Chiropractor. The care here is exceptional. They truly care about your health. I get so much more than just physical care; my spirits are lifted everytime I leave the office. I am so grateful to be a part of this chiropractor family.

Brianna Nicol

I look forward to my weekly visit at Merrimon Chiropractic. Dr. Fortini and Dr. Martin are both wonderful doctors and are helping me with the reverse curvature in my neck. I was initially concerned with the cost but they worked with me and we found a plan that I could afford to get me back aligned. I highly recommend them for all your chiropractic needs! The entire staff is amazing and I can't say enough how they make you feel at home, like you are part of their family. I appreciate all you do for me and my family. So thank you Merrimon chiropractic for all that you do!

Hannah Rabideau

This place is remarkable. I found out at 26 years old that I have scoliosis, and the team here has been making me feel better one visit at a time. I cant even express how grateful I am that I decided to visit. I am more comfortable day-by-day and my anxiety has lessened GREATLY! thank you all so much for improving my quality of life❤️

Pam Collins

I have been a patient of Dr. Martin’s for six months. I suffer from fibromyalgia and arthritis and have constant pain, inflammation and stiffness. I have a targeting massage before each visit which has been beneficial to me. It relaxes the muscles so I can get an adjustment. She uses a different type of technique that is not as painful. Dr. Martin listens if you are having a bad day and adjusts your treatment. They use X-rays to actually target your problems. I will never be pain free but it has offered some relief, even it it’s temporary. The staff is wonderful, well educated, and caring. It is a comfortable, upbeat atmosphere, and they give a lot of encouragement.

Renee Owen

Merrimon Chiropractic is something different. I have had some bad chiropractic experiences, even from some of the most popular "best of" chiropractors, and finally I have found someone who is truly talented and gives personal attention on every visit. Michael Fortini has improved chronic issues that I thought I would have to live with the rest of my life. Also, the staff are wonderful and they provide a little massage every visit to help me relax and to make the treatment more effective. I have never experienced such authentic care at a chiropractic office before.

Sarah

When I first started going to Merrimon Family Chiropractic, I had terrible lower back pain and headaches on a daily basis. After 9 weeks of therapy, I have no headaches and my lower back pain is GONE! I am now on the maintenance program and am getting adjusted about once every month. I have had a chance to visit with all but 1 doctor and they are all wonderful! They are amazing at what they do. Everyone at Merrimon Family Chiropractic cares about you and your well-being; I've never experienced a "doctor's" office that cares more about you than MFC. I am a very happy client!!

Vikki Suttles

I have been going to Merrimon Family Chiropractic for about 3 weeks. From Maria’s magic fingers to Dr. Martins précis adjustments my aches and pains in my neck and shoulders have almost disappeared. After each visit I find myself with a new energy that wasn’t there before. The entire staff has been friendly, courteous and willing to work with me on my crazy schedule. I am so thankful I took this huge step in getting back my pain free life!

Jessica Tipton

when I walked into Merrimon Family Chiropractic I felt and still feel like a part of the family. They CARE. The staff there is very helpful and kind. My life is becoming adjusted in more ways then one. I know that adjustments are making the blood flow better because my migraines have decreased, the tension in my back and neck is so much better. the clinical massage therapist is awesome too. I had siatica reer it's head and she helped me know alittle more about what I needed to do to take care of it so I could go on my honeymoon. I love this chiropractors office because it doesn't feel like an office. it feels like your home with family.

Krystal Marie

I love this doctor! I can’t say enough good things about my experiences so far. Everyone in the office is so accommodating and informative, the atmosphere is laid-back, and I truly feel like a huge difference is being made in my back already. My pain is dramatically reduced, range of motion improved, and even my moods are more regulated! Dr. Martin is my superhero!

Dave P

First time going to a chiropractor and glad I have chosen these people. The practitioners seem very skilled and are very education oriented. The staff are super friendly and competent - which is more than I can say for several other health care office I've been to. No exaggeration - every time I leave after an adjustment I feel lighter, calmer and glad I started going here!

Dustin Foster

After only a month of visits I noticed a tremendous difference in amount of neck and lower back pain. I also felt more aligned than I had in several years due to sports injuries! Everyone in the office was always friendly and very helpful assisting with all questions and always with a smile! Wonderful place to visit if your looking for a great chiropractor!!

Molly Kirsch

I have never met a more friendly team of caregivers who are as genuinely passionate as this bunch! They explain every step of the chiropractic process and are eager to help patients learn and heal. I am happy to walk into the office three times a week because I know I will be met by several smiling faces.

Carolyn Reichert

Wow! I'd been having hip & leg pain for a couple of months & was limping around. It really slowed me down. I finally went to Merimon Chiropractic & within a week I feel 100% better. Thank you to my neighbor Matt for recommending his place of employment. I was thoroughly examined & treated appropriately by Dr. Martin. I was impressed with the computer software they use where notes & x-ray shots are on screen for patient & doctor to see each visit. The entire staff has been attentive and very caring during a difficult time.

Jonathan Simpson

I started treatment a little over a month ago. I'm already walking straighter and have better balance! This wasn't the initial reason for a visit, but it's a great result! From day 1, the staff and doctors have always been friendly, helpful, and caring. They were also very easy and flexible to work with about payment. I highly recommend this office!

Leah Elizabeth Jackson

The staffing is extremely helpful and friendly. My ten year old absolutely loves Dr Ben and Dr Fortini. There have been incredible improvements in my son's attitude and behavior since we started to see them. And as a woman who is 5 months pregnant I'm much more confident in the pregnancy than when i was only seeing a ob. I hope that more people realize the benefits of chiropractics

Ryokiie

This place is professional, clean, and persistent on getting results for the clients. The energy of the associates is vibrant, compassionate, and welcoming. I respect the practice and what they have to offer as they have actually made a difference in my spinal issues. For any newcomers: Stay committed, be patient, and open to what healing can be had here!

Beverly Rumler

This is the most amazing office I've ever been to, the doc is awesome she really cares about her patients, as well as having the hands and heart of a true healer. The staff there are very warm and friendly, you can tell they care about the patients as well. The office is very calming and inviting.

mam mam

I'd just like to say Merrimon Family Chiropractic is hands down the best Chiropractic office I've ever been too!! I look forward to coming in and seeing Dr. Ben for my visits instead of dreading them. Just a few weeks after I started coming and feeling better, I hurt my knee(pending surgery) and quit coming because I couldn't get on and off the table. The office staff called to check on me and in our conversation told me they had a bed that raises up then lays you down for treatment. Thank goodness, now I can continue my treatments without fear of injuring my knee further!!! The doctors and office staff genuinely about you and I can feel the love with every visit. Sharon Roberson

Denise Taylor

Through the years I periodically have sought chiropractic care. The staff and Doctors at Merrimon Chiropractic far surpass my other experiences. In a reasonably short time I am experiencing a reversal of many of the symptoms I had been complaining about. Education and modern technology have indeed brought chiropractic care to a rightful place in Health Care. These folks know their stuff and I am privileged to be under their care. I highly recommend this business establishment.

Alaina Plemmons

This place can change your life! My husband has some pretty severe heart problems and after 3 heart attacks and as many surgeries his cardiac doctors wanted to implant a device inside his heart to keep it beating steady. For him chiropractic was a very last resort but now he is urging other people to go in. The hope we didn't even notice we had lost is back. He is in his 2nd full week of treatment and our lives are different. He is becoming the funny, loving, silly man I married. We are excited for his next cardiac appointment to see how he is improving. Thanks to all the staff who have been instrumental to his and our healing.

Stephen Thomas

My wife and I love the staff at Merrimon Family Chiropractic. They are genuinely concerned with the health of their patients. They often go beyond the "call of duty". The atmosphere in the office is always friendly and positive.

Freeman Music

I would say that I should have taken advantage of chiropractic care over a decade ago but I wouldn’t have been in Asheville to experience the professional, warm, and personal atmosphere created and sustained by these folks. So grateful I found Merrimon Family Chiropractic. It’s unique and perfectly tailored to my needs. I can’t say enough. They are changing my life.

Lauren Besse

The chiropractors at Merrimon Family Chiropractic are pros! We drove across the country to Asheville, and needless to say, they helped us lift the 'brain fog' and our bodies get back to normal from the travel. We've continued our care with them, which keeps our minds clear and focused and bodies working properly. Cannot say enough good things about this team of experts!! If you truly want to attain better health, chiropractic is the absolute BEST thing that you can do for yourself & family. My son started getting better grades in school, was happier all of the time, and overall healthier due to chiropractic methods. The friendly, knowledgeable staff is a plus as well, they make everything simple, and are always available when needed!

KIM & Guido Roth

The team at Merrimon Family Chiropractic are professional, and have a genuine deep concern for their patients. Dr Martin and Dr Fortini have healing hands and skill to help your spine heal. I am so very thankful for the relief I have received in their care.

Shelby McIntyre

Dr. Martin is amazing. When I started going to Merrimon Family Chiropractic I was having daily migraines that were accompanied by dizziness and blurred vision. In just the short amount of time that I have been seeing Dr. Martin those migraines have stopped. After my first adjustment Dr. Martin took the time to text me and see how I was doing. Dr. Martin and her staff are absolutely amazing.

Kristina Harder

The Doctors and staff are amazing! They helped my husband and I feel so much better and we have more energy and less pain. No matter what your issue is, give them a try. I have been to several chiropractors over the years and they are the best!

Brittany Williams

I love going to Merrimon Family Chiropractic, everyone there are really nice and very friendly. They all make you feel right at home. I personally have only been going for 2 weeks now and Im only 22 years old and I can tell a complete difference in my spine neck and shoulders. I always thought going to the Chiro would hurt or be to aggressive, but ever since I have experienced it myself I love going and who knew your spine controlled majority of your body and your nerves. I would go everyday if I could. It is an amazing experience and I most definitely would refer many people to go to Merrimon Family Chiropratic, not only for the chiropractic but for the love and care they all have for all their patients. Thanks Merrimon Family you all are great!! :)

Sue Holliday

"I first sought Chiropractic Care in Brandon, MS in 2009 for a problem that had plagued me for several years. Steroid injections, anti-inflammatories, and physical therapy gave temporary relief but nothing actually corrected the problem. After approximately 2 months of chiropractic treatment, I was vastly improved and with continued monthly visits, became pain free. We moved to WNC in the fall of 2013 and because of all of the issues involved in buying and renovating a house, and getting started, I neglected my chiropractic needs for over a year. HUGE MISTAKE! After becoming increasingly uncomfortable and developing numerous problems, I researched and discovered Merrimon Family Chiropractic. I asked for an evaluation appointment and realized immediately they were a perfect fit for me. We agreed on a course of treatment and they are getting me back on track. I have every confidence I will soon be at optimal health. I will definitely continue maintenance according to their recommendations. The doctors at MFC are amazing. They inspire confidence, they are professional, kind and understanding. They are always willing to answer any questions I might have and give good explanations of their treatment methods. All members of the support staff are friendly and efficient; the financial plans are affordable and understandable. I am grateful to Merrimon Family Chiropractic for taking me on as a patient and highly recommend them to all who wish evaluation and treatment." -Sue Holliday

Kathryn Barnwell

Dr. Fortini and his staff initially began treating me following a car accident several years ago and I have continued to see them for monthly maintenance adjustments. They have proven to have such a positive impact on how I feel, move, and think - it has truly changed my life - no more horrible shoulder, lower back, neck, or headaches! My overall health is much improved - I have fewer colds and allergy problems! I have better posture! I sleep better! My 87 year-old mother-in-law was about to have back surgery for sciatica issues. My husband, also a regular patient at Merrimon Family Chiropractic, convinced her to try chiropractic treatment first and she is now pain free! No surgery!

Lauren Tamayo

I was recommended to Merrimon Family Chiropractic because of a bulging disc in my neck. I tried massage, heat, and physio-tape, which in the past helped the discomfort but over time couldn’t manage it. After completing my sessions, my neck pain was gone and I noticed things like sleeping on my side was actually comfortable again. Merrimon Family Chiropractic helped me get back to doing my job - racing bikes - and it made it a little less painful.

Chip Smith

Great staff here- all are very friendly and personable! They don't just treat patients, they educate them....... Have been getting treatments for app. 6 weeks, and most of my neck and shoulder pain are gone- a great relief. I would definitely recommend this office to anyone with pain, or someone just wanting to feel better overall.

Marcia Knight

I have been a regular patient for two years. Having received chiropractic treatment in Indianapolis before moving to Asheville, I knew I wanted to continue to receive this service. Merrimon Family Chiropractic was recommended by their representative at the Gay Pride Event and I signed up with my life-mate Mary Z. Longstreth. We have been very pleased with the treatments and the continued health we enjoy as a result of our monthly visits We highly recommend this Chiropractic group.

Rejoicing Mountains

I am a musician and singer songwriter. I found it is essential to my health to have chiropractic care as a part of my life. I started going to Merrimon Family Chiropractic over five years ago. I had a lot of migraines and dizziness issues and just overall not feeling the best. Since I started it has definitely changed my life. I feel so much better now. I continue to see Dr. Ben and Dr. Fortini because they help me be the best I can be at what I do. I believe chiropractic care should be a part of everyone's life. If you get the chance to go visit Merrimon Family you won't be disappointed. Melanie Griggs

Jessica N

I really enjoy being a patient here. The staff is super friendly and treatment has been extremely effective.

Sue McQueen

Everyone there is friendly and willing to help. The hours are reasonable. Many types of insurance accepted and they offer discounts when paying for 10 visits at a time. Three doctors on staff with a nice range of expertise. They even give their patients massage! Great place for chiropractic therapy.

Kelly Russel

Fantastic practice. I was delighted to deal with a practice like these guys. Everyone is wonderful. They have so many things to help you with your overall health here. I’ve never seen people who care so much about my overall well-being as Merrimon Family Chiro. Dr. Martin is great. Serenity is great. Megan is great, Matt is great. I’m so happy to have found them through my attorney, Lakota Denton, P.A. I had a major car accident and they have been angels to me. I feel like I might even be able to heal with them by my side. Thank you, Merrimon Family Practice!!

John Shagren

I was diagnosed to have several discs o in my sacral area that was which she X-rayed the areas she felt were affected. And she was spot on in all the diagnosis made. She set up a treatment plan which involved my cooperation in the form of exercise and information on diet and its effects on our health.All in all this is a very caring, knowledgeable and compassionate staff with A nr 1 attitude. I feel that they were Life savers John A Shagren Jr LPN (Retired from 45 wonderful years)

Kristen Hipps

"Although I have had chiropractic care from other doctors, none compare to the care and compassion that Merrimon Family Chiropractic has shown me. I am a very busy person so having a chiropractor who works with me and has very flexible scheduling is something I greatly appreciate. I've also had financial trouble over the last few months, and they have been incredibly helpful with working out a payment plan that fits my needs. They are genuinely concerned with giving me the best chiropractic care possible. As far as the care itself, when I walked into the office the first time, I was in constant pain. It was always worse when I was at work. By the end of my work day I would be in tears from the pain shooting up my back and down into my legs. I could barely walk. After the first month of care, I saw a huge difference. Going to work was no longer unbearable. I have seen so much improvement since I started coming to Merrimon Family Chiropractic. The whole team here has been wonderful, caring, honest and have done absolutely everything to give me the best experience in chiropractic care!" -Kristen Hipps

Julie Parker

I am loving my work with Dr. Ben and Dr. Fortini!! And the staff are SO warm and welcoming.I especially value the education component of the work. AND I immediately feel my body responding to each adjustment. My friend Nannette loves the work too but she doesn't have a computer. She is delighted we are on this healing journey and is full of praise for the docs and staff.

Worth Bodie

Staff friendly, helpful. Chiropractic adjustment effective.

Chantae Shor

Prior to coming to this place I experienced chronic back pain and muscle spasms due to a server accident a couple years back. Overall, I am a very healthy, active, balanced person and sought to heal the areas that were out of balance. I am very happy I stumbled into this chiropractor. All the people here are super friendly, always smiling, and helpful. The adjustments serve the body well. Within my time span here I went from my initial 10 degrees angle (this is the angle that the neck needs to be to allow maximum amount of flow to the rest of the body through the spinal cord) to 17 degrees to now 21 degrees. I need to be at 33 degrees. I'm pleased to see the progress and I can feel a TREMENDOUS difference in my back and posture. Keep up the good work!

Krisy Williams

My 2 children and I are receiving chiropractic care and are extremely happy with the results!! Every doctor and staff member has made their experience welcoming and loving. Both sons are currently active in Tae Kwon Do, Bike Club, and Baseball which has resulted in several months of chronic neck and back pain. After the first treatment they had immediate relief and have been better athletes, have been able to have a good nights rest, and have had more energy during the day at school! I have also been treating for neck and back pain with chronic headaches. I have improvement in all areas and have been greatful that I do not have to medically manage my pain but use natural methods.

karen paradis

I would recommend to everyone I know! My experience has been extremely positive to my overall health. I have range of motion back in my neck and upper shoulders do not get the stress knots that I would get on a regular basis. My mind is clearer and I just feel better inside and out! KP

Margaret See

I love this place. Staff are professional yet the atmosphere is very relaxed, They always takes the time to answer any questions or concerns I have. Dr. Martin is very knowledgeable and gentle when doing my adjustments. My husband and I are having great results. I no longer have pain in my mid back that drove me crazy for years. Of course we know, it's not an instant fix but it is getting better. Thank you guys.

Ron Lapointe

Dr Fortini's orientation on my first visit really helped me let go of the angst I held because of past bad chiropractic care in the past. After only 6 visits, I'm no longer having pain in my right hip from years of drumset playing, experiencing more flexibility in my kneck, and generally feeling more energized. Indeed, if the wiring(nervous system) is firing correctly through the gradual reduction of subluxations, your body can't help buy heal itself as it's meant to. Thanks Doc.

Matt Popowski

Dr. Craig worked wonders on my neck, back and jaw within months of starting a treatment plan. Since a bad experience in college, I've always been suspicious of chiropractors of being out to take my money for unnecessarily frequent office visits. I was an as-needed patient converted to a regular care plan, and it's been worth the investment. I felt like Dr. Craig spent extra time and care making sure that I was correctly aligned and he addressed all my concerns. I'm also a severe TMJ patient who had relapsed into painful jaw-popping, and the issue has subsided to the point where I rarely think about it. Their front desk staff is terrific. Unfortunately Dr. Craig had heart trouble and doesn't work there anymore, but the other Drs. offer good care at a fairly reasonable price if you don't have insurance coverage like me.

Cynthia LaLuna

High performers often have a "team" that helps them be the best they can be. As someone who expects a LOT out of myself and life, I consider the doctors and staff at Merrimon Family Chiropractic to be part of my "support team." I first started seeing Dr. Michael Fortini in 2011 after moving to Asheville because he is a cervical spine specialist, and I was suffering chronic neck problems. He, Dr. Rob Resnick, and Dr. Ben Giebell are all three amazing healers. Thanks to them, I can keep pushing the limits with whitewater kayaking, Tae Kwon Do, and whatever else I feel inspired to do and keep on going!

Karen Bogan

I came to Merrimon Chiropractic with back pain that had not gotten much better after doing 4 months of physical therapy and having had two epidural block injections. I have had to live in pain for years because of fibromyalgia and I had watched my quality of life continue to decline. I was at the point of giving up on ever doing more than just getting through the day. I was a tough patient because I felt like they would just be one more place to check off my list of things I had tried. I was given a very honest and up front report from Dr. Fortini and Dr. Ben, they told me that while they could not "cure" me, they could certainly help with my pain! Within just a few weeks I could feel improvement not only in my back but in other areas as well!! I have been more active than I have been in years! They were right, they didnt cure me, what they did do was give me back a life of being able to hold and play with my grandchildren, go out with family and friends, take a walk around the lake....yes, I still have times of pain, but I know that all I have to do is pick up the phone and they will do everything within their power to help me through it!!

I hobbled into Merrimon Family Chiropractic a couple of weeks ago seeking help for the extreme amount of back pain I was experiencing. The folks at MFC were super welcoming and helpful. They talked to me and took x-rays right off the bat to figure out if and how they actually could be of service to me.The x-rays revealed, not to my surprise, that my spine and pelvic bone are totally wonky. We set into motion an 18 week session of therapy to help repair what I am hoping is not irreparable damage. I am in my last week of intensive three days a week therapy that has consisted of site-specific adjustments, massage, and early on, electrotherapy, to help ease the pain. After this week, I will go to once a week for a while, then once a month. I was incapacitated and miserable for three days before visiting MFC. I have their super friendly, welcoming and professional doctors and staff to thank for helping me discover this culmination of years worth of damage to my spine and getting me back on my realigned feet again. Thanks MFC for not only getting me back to my life, but helping me to improve it hugely!

Before receiving treatment at MFC, I was experiencing chronic pain in my hip and it had gotten to the point where it was hindering my ability to complete simple daily functions. I saw Dr. Craig three times per week for a month and in that time, I found that I was able to walk, sleep and function without chronic pain. After the first month and reducing to two visists per week, I found that the pain was almost non-existant. I am so grateful for the kindness and professionalism demonstrated by the folks at MFC. I feel like my needs were adressed and preferences heard when I first came and ever since. I am always greeted with a smile and I have come to truly appreciate the "family" atmosphere that the docs and support staff provide. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone that is curious about seeking chiropractic care.

A whole new level of chiropractics! Dr. Fortini is at the top of his field and it shows in his work. Since my first visit about two months ago, the curvature of my spine has corrected over 10 degrees (it's visible on an x-ray!), I've cut my anti-anxiety meds in half and completely ceased my sleeping medication, my posture has improved, and my pain levels have dropped dramatically. It is absolutely astonishing. Dr. Fortini provides an excellent education on the many crucial functions of the spine, as well as nutrition and lifestyle changes I can make to improve my overall health. He's a diamond in the rough, for sure, and his team members are an absolute joy. I look forward to this coming year of new life in 2016.

Stanley Bradley

GreT place. Has really been an asset to me with my neck and back problems. I would highly recommend them to anybody in need of chiropractic services.Great staff.

Sam Kistler

I have been to several chiropractors and orthopedic doctors over the last fifteen years, all who've told me that my right leg is shorter than my left. After 5 visits with Dr. Martin, both of my legs are now magically the same length. Amazing.....

Christian Smith

This is a loving, healing place for my body. I'm in construction and have extreme schulliosis. Merrimon family chiropractic keeps me moving and working with less pain than I've been in for almost a decade♥️ I have nothing but good things to say about the entire staff. They have changed my life!!!

Tiny Finley

After just one message I felt like a new person . I was no longer that intense ball of tight muscles.However what really won me over was that I had hope now of getting off the meds. that I am currently taking for the pain that I have to deal with on a daily base; plus I could lose some unwanted weight that I had gained over the years. I left the office with a new out look on life and extremely excited about.

Tom Hartwell

Regular visits for "maintenance" purposes have kept away colds, flu and allergies that I am typically susceptible to. Lately I have been so busy with life that it had been well over a month since my last adjustment. I am certain that my cognitive functioning is improved to a much needed "cracking"! I just feel better all over!

Salih Cotten

Wonderful staff, dedicated to client's healing and provide effective measured results for us to see and experience. Highly recommend Merrimon Family Chiropractic for those with discomfort and those seeking a healthier life.

Pam Collins

My initial visit was wonderful. I was met with very knowledgeable staff. They went over my medical history, explained the equipment they use, and explained the spinal cord and how it works. The doctor did an initial exam and explained what areas need attention. I would highly recommended them.

Denis DeBan

From my first visit walking in the office I met a wonderful person Cathy( her nick name), Serenity her true name. Dr. Resnick started my treatment after a car accident. Then I met Dr. Fortini who took over my treatments three days a week. His thorough and dedicated work has done wonders on my injured shoulder and neck. I'm greeted each time with smiles from the staff as if being part of their family. Dr. Fortini is always concerned with my progress and works extra hard in my treatments. He even gives me exercises to do at home in helping the treatment progress. Denis F. DeBan

Karen Hough

"I was dubious when I first made my appointment. I had been told by an allergist to never see a chiropractor. From the moment I walked in I knew I had made the right decision. The office staff is always accommodating. My severe headaches were alleviated almost immediately. My allergy attacks are also less frequent. My experience has been nothing but positive. I am glad I didn't listen to the allergist." Karen Hough

Kevin Anderson

All of the staff displayed grace and professionalism sufficiently to make me very likely to recommend Merrimon Family Chiropractic to anyone I meet having a need for help with their body functioning the way it was designed.

Kimber Jones

I thoroughly enjoyed my recent visit to see Dr. Fortini. He was kind, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. Jenn, at the front desk was incredibly helpful and professional. You are in good hands here!

Monica Cook

I came into the office wtih back pain. I'd seen two other dr.'s in different medical fields and neither could help me. Dr. Fortini took xrays and discussed that part of my problem was not Chiroprctic related and referred me back to my primary care physician (whom I started with when I started having the pain). After they performed more tests they concluded that Dr. Fortini was correct and my problem was not only a kidney stone but a kidney stone the size of a gumball that was blocking my right kidney and my kidney was dying. I had emergency surgery 3 days later. I am so thankful for 1. a Dr. who listened to me and helped me find the root to my pain and 2. cared enough that he referred the part of my problem that wasn't in his field back to the correct area. This office is definately 5 Star when it comes to educating and caring for their patients.

Alan Laibson

It's always a positive experience when I go to Merrimon Family Chiropractic. Everyone is very friendly and capable. I always feel welcome and when I leave I feel terrific.

Daniel Kripak

The administrative and the medical staff are extremely nice, and are willing to work with the patient. They are committed to improving your health and do their best to comply with the patient's time and budget constraints.

Clare Hill

"When I began treatment here I was having trouble with my lower back getting very tight after standing a while or walking a lot. After a few months of treatment, I definitely felt a difference. I recently went on a 3 week trip to Italy where I walked 3-5 hours every day and stood in art museums for hours. I had no trouble at all. If I had gone on this trip a year ago, I would've had to sit some things out. I truly appreciate how considerate and kind the entire staff is. Dr. Ben has always been on point with getting me feeling in tip top shape. I also really appreciate the reminder texts and emails I receive to keep me from missing an appointment. My parents have been coming to see Dr. Fortini and Dr. Resnick for years and we as a family are so grateful for everything that the staff does." -Clare Beumer

James Kitchens

These people have redefined the meaning of great, kind, caring and professional service. I went two weeks ago after pulling out my back as I could hardly walk. I am now feeling the best I have in years. Thanks so much to the team!!! Your attention and individualized service is impeccable.

Samantha Perry

After just a few visits, I have full mobility and range of motion in my shoulder after a year and a half of limitations. The staff is super friendly. They have been very flexible with my unusual schedule.

Great people Great place to get your life back after back problems

Brian

The staff here are so awesome and friendly... before i came here i was in constant pain in my back and neck and so far after almost 20 visits i feel great. The key point though is to keep going back even if you feel good and stay adjusted. I highly recommend anyone to try this place out and you will not be disappointed.

Barbara Gilbert

I've never had such a kind and concerned team treat me so well. I look forward to my next appointment. I know I'm in good hands.

Norma Richard

"As a new resident to Asheville, I was concerned about finding health care providers to continue the high level of care I had received for many years in Maine. I hit the jackpot when my primary care physician referred me to Merrimon Family Chiropractic. Everything about my treatment at this office has exceeded my expectations and I look forward to every chiropractic appointment. It is apparent that everyone at Merrimon Family Chiropractic supports health and wellness for their clients. The office staff has made me feel at home with their care, positive attitude and efficiency. Dr. Ben, in just a few months of treatments, has helped to rid me completely of severe headaches. And those massages - they are incredible! I am feeling so much better and experiencing improved energy and joy in my life. I recommend this practice with my highest regard."

Mike Morrell

Merrimon Family Chiropractic is such a gem. Drs. Fortini and Childers are highly skilled, and their staff are very friendly and helpful. We take our entire family of four - including our special needs daughter - there, and our health is demonstrably improving. I feel more flexible, clear-headed, and pain-free. I highly recommend checking them out for yourself.

nick lenos

This is not one of those places where they don't know your name and the table does all the work. Their first concern is your well being and it shows!

Rick Barnett

"My name is Rick and I started coming to this office in Aug. 2014. I had problems staying bent over at the waist, as well as not being able to turn my head to the right very well. Now, that I am in maintenance, I feel like a new man. I can't say enough good things about all the doctors. They have been awesome! Then there is the office staff, the ladies here are the best hands down from any other doctors office I have ever been to. I want to thank everyone for such great care! -"Tigger"

Denise Chambers

The staff is fabulous. They truly care about you! I have only been going for a few weeks and I am doing so much better. I was walking with a cane on my first visit and a few visits later - NO Cane!!!

Elana Kann

These people are so kind, competent, caring, conscientious, and playful. They are totally devoted to the best service they can provide. When they fall short, they are the first to realize it and to self-correct. I look forward to my visits.

Tina Parham

"I have never been to a place where I have been treated so well. I've never experienced anything but kindness, and always greated by name. That's so unusual for most places you go. I came into this office in a lot of pain and numbeness. After just a month and a half, I've felt so much better!"

Sandra King

I had pain for 15 years back pain and sciatica went to physical therapy different times and other chiropractor's when I found this office they have helped me so much I'm sleeping and able to do so many things I haven't been able to do in a long time they always take time to listen it has been a blessing to feel so much better I'm so glad I found them,

Amalia Grannis

Dr. Reema is a skilled, compassionate, and intuative doctor. She has provided me life altering care. At the age of 20 I slipped 3 discs in my lumbar. I was informed that I had degenrative discs, and that my condition would worsen over my lifetime. I could only look forward to spinal surgeries and limited mobility as I aged. At the age of 29, thanks to chiropractic care from Dr. Reema, I measure a half inch taller than I did at age 25. I own and operate successful junk hauling business. I enjoy a life of health, strength, and mobility. When I do experience back pain a visit to the office ensures a recovery time of days, not weeks. I am no longer taking prescription muscle relaxers and I have no plans for surgeries. External medicine is very underrated. I am so grateful for her help.

Joyce Landreth

The practice is a peaceful place and the staff are very knowledgeable, putting a lot of consideration into exactly what the client needs. The last thing that I want is surgery and I believe that my regimen there is the best option to avoid that.
