Patient Testimonials
TREVA: I’ve had migraines and neck issues for at least 15 years. I’ve been seeing Dr. Elder for about 3 weeks and have only had 1 mild migraine (from travel and hotel bed) & only 1 headache. I LOVE that he doesn’t pop my neck! My day-to-day functionality has improved! The Blair technique is so unique and mild that it doesn’t even seem like chiropractic care… Yet IT WORKS!!! As a side-note, my jaw has bothered me and felt “heavy“ for as long back as I can remember. When I mentioned it to Dr. Elder, he did a smooth, swift motion… not a popping… and it has felt wonderful! I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Elder and Blair Chiropractic Clinic.
PAUL: I had terrible headaches for many years and had tried medicines, different doctors and chiropractors, injections and even ablation on nerves in my neck. Most procedures actually made the pain worse. Medicine helped temporarily but it took several days to get over the “medication hangover”. I was skeptical when my doctor recommended Dr. Elder at Blair Chiropractic Clinic because I had tried several chiropractors and it had not helped. I started seeing Dr. Elder twice a week. It did not improve quickly but within a month my headaches were better. I have now been a patient for a year and a half and I rarely ever have a headache. I used to have 2-3 bad headaches a week and I haven’t had one in over a month. I highly recommend Dr Elder. Be sure to give it time. Your body has to heal but it is so worth it! I feel like I have my life back!!
VALERIE: I have been going to the Blair Chiropractic clinic since the late Seventies when Dr. Blair, himself, attended to my neck and back. I then saw Dr. Addington until his retirement. As a former dancer and current Yoga and fitness instructor I have maintained a strong, active, relatively pain free body at age 71 thanks in part to chiropractic care. I am pleased to continue my care with Dr. Elder in the Blair technique. The environment is professional, pleasant, and efficient, and the technique is gentle and non invasive with positive results.
REBEKAH: Last August I had gone on a road trip and came home with terrible neck and shoulder pain. I wasn't even sure what triggered it. I waited several days for it to ease up and it never did. My right arm was even starting to feel tingly and numb. I could barely turn my head to the side without feeling intense pain. My sister referred me to Dr. Elder and what a difference he has made! After taking an x-ray, he found 5 different places where I was out of alignment. He explained so thoroughly and in a way I could understand what was going on with my body. He adjusted my neck and jaw and I barely felt anything! After the initial adjustment, I gradually began to feel better. He would check me about twice a week for the first month to make sure I didn't get out of alignment. Eventually I went down to once every week, then 2 weeks, to once a month and recently I have graduated to once every two months! Each check up only takes about 5 minutes. He's only needed to make one other adjustment since the first one. I've had less headaches and overall feel so much better. Dr. Elder is amazing and you can tell he really cares about his patients. I would highly recommend him to anyone!
SUSAN: Meeting Dr. Gordon Elder was a turning point in my health and wellbeing, and unlike any chiropractic I have experienced. Dr. Elder was able to skillfully pinpoint, diagnose and treat two upper cervical areas which were undetected sources of lifelong pain throughout the body. Treatment is so gentle, but there is lasting relief. Between sessions, the body responds and continues to heal itself. Friendly and efficient atmosphere and attentive/topnotch 'doctoring.' I highly recommend Blair Chiropractic.
JEREMEY: Better and more effective Chiropractic care. Found a neck injury I didn't know I had. No violent pops. Dr. Elder poked me in the neck and fixed the lower back muscle spasms I'd had for 15 years! Dr. Elder finds the root cause of problems and fixes it. If you want to see your Chiropractor every week for the rest of your life, Blair isn't for you. If you don't want your life to revolve around your Chiropractic care, then come see them.
DIANE: Dr. Blair was my father and I have been under Chiropractic care my whole life. It is a blessing that Dr Elder moved his family to Lubbock to keep Blair Upper Cervical Chiropractic available to our area of the country. Getting and keeping your neck in alignment will help your whole body. There are so many success stories about this technique. Give it a try, it really works!
KARLA: HAPPY FEET!!! I have had pain and aching in my feet that has been progressively getting worse over the last 6months. I was having trouble getting to sleep at the end of the day due to continual aching in my feet. I was blaming myself thinking it's just because I have gained weight or I'm getting older etc. etc. When I went in for my 6 month check up with Dr. Elder, I happened to mention the pain in my feet, not even thinking there was anything he could do. He informed me that one of my arches in my feet had collapsed causing the others to collapse as well. He spent several minutes adjusting the bones in my feet. Over the next couple of days the pain completely subsided! It has not come back. I went in for a re-check a week later and everything is still in place. I love the Blair method of chiropractic because I never have to get "cracked"! The adjustments hold for the long haul and Dr. Elder's goal is the see less and less of me over time because I DONT't need an adjustment. If you are having to go to your chiropractor over and over to get "cracked" on a monthly basis or more, you are not being cared for properly. There is a better way that helps your body align itself naturally and stay aligned.
