I am very grateful to have met Dr. Mary Howell, Dr. Peggy 40 years ago..They helped me more then any other doctor and I learned so much from them. My mother, brother, sisters and our children often visited the SA office. I wish I could speak to them now, as my 17 yr.old son just broke a vertebra on June 29, 2008. They would know what to tell us. They are all missed by me... M. Parker

That lady was a miracle worker. My son had 2 neurosurgeons tell him that he needed surgery to stop being in pain. She had him pain free in one month with her adjustments 3 times a week. After 10 years of migraine headaches, she cured me in about 5 adjustments. I could go on and on. We got her name from a waitress that was able to not have back surgery because of her. Another friend was told by Kaiser that he needed surgery, and she fixed him too. She had an unusual neck technique, and she was willing to show other chiropractors her technique, but the men were all too proud to go and learn from a woman. I even offered to pay them to go and learn. She is greatly missed by her patients and those that knew and loved her. 12-31-08
