Turning Point Chiropractic celebrates first anniversary<br />

On August 15th, 2011,<br />

Dr. Jeffrey Elmore and Dr.<br />

Rachel Berent opened <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

doors to <strong>the</strong> public at Turning<br />

Point Chiropractic. It’s<br />

been exactly one year since<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir opening day, but <strong>the</strong>y<br />

feel like it was just yesterday.<br />

“We are so honored to<br />

be in a town like <strong>Perrysburg</strong>.<br />

The community and<br />

our patients have given us<br />

such a warm welcome this<br />

past year,” said Dr. Berent.<br />

A lot has changed in one<br />

year for <strong>the</strong> two doctors.<br />

Not only is <strong>the</strong>ir practice<br />

growing, but in this past<br />

year <strong>the</strong> two doctors got<br />

married on New Year’s Eve<br />

at St. Rose Catholic<br />

Church. They were thrilled<br />

to start a new life and to<br />

continue <strong>the</strong>ir journey<br />

toge<strong>the</strong>r of making <strong>Perrysburg</strong><br />

and <strong>the</strong> Toledo area a<br />

healthier place for all residents.<br />

Dr. Elmore and Dr.<br />

Berent are very passionate<br />

about <strong>the</strong>ir method of<br />

health care, because more<br />

people than ever are starting<br />

to search for alternative,<br />

natural, and holistic ways to<br />

achieve health. They are<br />

also very driven <strong>by</strong> <strong>the</strong> type<br />

of chiropractic <strong>the</strong>y perform,<br />

which is a unique<br />

type of care called Upper<br />

Cervical Chiropractic care.<br />

Many people have heard of<br />

full-spine chiropractors that<br />

adjust multiple areas of <strong>the</strong><br />

spine in one visit. However,<br />

Dr. Rachel Berent and Dr. Jeffrey Elmore<br />

tic care is a rapidly growing<br />

technique that focuses on<br />

<strong>the</strong> relationship of <strong>the</strong> top<br />

two bones of <strong>the</strong> neck and a<br />

very vital portion of <strong>the</strong><br />

nervous system, <strong>the</strong> brain<br />

stem. The brain stem is <strong>the</strong><br />

healing communication<br />

between <strong>the</strong> brain and <strong>the</strong><br />

rest of <strong>the</strong> body. This link<br />

Owner Tonya Wilhelm & Dexter<br />

between <strong>the</strong> upper neck and<br />

brain stem is essential to<br />

<strong>the</strong> body’s ability to heal.<br />

Dr. Elmore adds, “We<br />

have seen many cases of<br />

neck pain, headaches and<br />

low back pain alleviated<br />

with minimal adjusting.<br />

Chiropractic care is amazing<br />

because it supports <strong>the</strong><br />

body’s natural healing<br />

process.”<br />

Their accurate and light<br />

technique involves no<br />

twisting, popping or cracking<br />

of <strong>the</strong> neck and body.<br />

This unique technique<br />

offers endless possibilities<br />

to restore your health while<br />

seeing patients less and<br />

obtaining more results.<br />

Their technique is for you<br />

and your family,<br />

Come share in <strong>the</strong>ir journey<br />

of getting <strong>the</strong> people of<br />

<strong>Perrysburg</strong> and <strong>the</strong> surrounding<br />

areas healthier.<br />
