 "My name is David, I am 55 years old and am the Financial Aid Director at SMSU in Marshall. I have been married 26 years to my beautiful wife Anna, we have three kids, Amber – 35, Ashley – 28 and Austin – 22, and two Grandkids, Ayden – 12 and Kennedy – 9 months.  I have always tried to stay active but after a few car accidents and just general aging it became harder to stay active. The car accidents had caused me years of pain in my neck and shoulders. Trying to work out, golf and other activities were painful.
My primary care physician sent me to an Orthopedic Specialist about 4 years ago. Over that time I had quite a few injections and actually had the nerve endings in my neck burned off 4 times. This would give me temporary relief but after 4 or 5 months the pain would be back.
In January of 2018 I was sick of the continual trips to the specialist and decided to try chiropractic care. A co-worker of mine referred me to Dr. Derrik Pinckney at the Preferred Health Clinic in Marshall.I wish I would have gone to him 15 years ago!! The pain in my neck and shoulders are completely gone. I thought I had torn something in my shoulder but it was because of the neck pain. The difference in how I can turn my body again swinging a golf club is amazing. Other activities are easier and pain free as well.I would recommend Dr. Pinckney and chiropractic care to anyone and everyone!!"

Our success story of the week is Laurie! She came to our office with chronic pain in her low back and hip that was causing her to take anywhere from 10-12 pain pills a day. Her goal was to become medication free so she could get the surgery she desperately needed on her hip. After weekly acupuncture treatments and chiropractic adjustments, Laurie is medication free and recently had surgery on her hip. She has received acupuncture treatments post-surgery and is doing great. Along the way she increased her mobility, eliminated her stomach and digestive issues, and continues to be headache free. The strides Laurie has made have been life changing for both her and her family! 
Laurie came to our office with stomach/digestive issues and was diagnosed with a serious infection in the lining of the stomach. At the time, she was prescribed a medication that she was allergic to and could’ve led to serious complications. Laura wanted a natural approach to try and fight this problem head on! Dr. Pinckney started with chiropractic adjustments along with strong nutritional probiotics. Laura was amazed at how fast she improved and now she rarely notices her stomach issues. She also began acupuncture treatments with Dr. Eichten for her stomach, stress, sleep, and anxiety. Laura is happy to say that it has helped with all of those issues and many others! She stated, “I didn’t realize how bad I felt until I started feeling this good!” If you or someone else you know could benefit from chiropractic or acupuncture, don’t hesitate to give us a call and see how it can change your life!



"I am a mother of two and work in the retail industry.  My job can be very demanding on my body.  There have been many times when I have woken up with a sore back or neck and after a few days with the help of a heating blanket and Tylenol it goes away.  However, this last Christmas was a little different.  One morning I woke up and was unable to move my head to the left.  As the day progressed I had to move my entire body to look left and I had sharp pains running through my entire body.  I called Preferred Health of Marshall and they were able to get me in right away.  After a series of tests and x-rays, I found that my back and neck were not curved the way they were supposed to.  I saw my chiropractor 3 times in the first few weeks and then each week after that until now I only go once a month.  I go through a series of adjustments that continually correct my back and spine.  I have yet to have another episode and couldn't be happier!"

"The first time I injured my back, I was lifting a box out of the freezer.  I saw stars!  The pain was extremely bad.  I made it into see Dr. Evans and after a couple of sessions I was on the way to healing, which does take time.  The most recent incident I had was sitting on the bleachers at a basketball game.  I had to use a walker to get me into the doctor's office.  After a couple sessions with Dr.Evans I was again on the process of healing up.  There is nothing to compare with when it comes to back pain.  I am very happy with Preferred Health and Dr. Evans."

 "I worked for a friend of mine helping him whenever he had a big job.  One day I fell off a roof and broke my back.  Over the years since then my back was getting worse so I called Preferred Health and they were able to get me back in shape.  To be honest my back hasn't felt this good in years.  Dr. Kern was very precise on explaining what was taking place in my back and what he wanted to do to take care of it.  Very nice staff, very willing to help you and answer any questions you had."
