Great first experience. The staff were knowledgeable and gave great insight on what was going on with me and what was needed moving forward.
I felt like I was heard and my needs were met I feel this is the beginning of extended care that will help keep me pain-free for a long time and I'm grateful for this group of people and them accepting me for their treatments
All I can say is wow. I had a month long head ache with neck and upper body pain. They took the time to check my spine and neck via x-ray and some wand that checks the nerves leaving each disk. He took the time to show me the data and explain what was wrong and why. Once he knew he could safely adjust me he did. He popped my neck for the first time in my life. My headache was immediately relieved. He adjusted my hips and popped my mid back. Today is the next day. I have full range of motion in my neck for the first time as far back as I can remember. I can breathe in fully without feeling like someone is squeezing me as to not let me have a full breath. I highly recommend.

I am very pleased with this place so far! Friendly environment. Dr. Norton really explains everything. He really educates you on what he's doing, why he's doing it and the tools he's using. I'm a hairstylist who is constantly on my feet for long hours at a time! No neck, knee, or shoulder pains anymore!! Highly recommend for any hairstylist or anyone in general who has any of these issues!
Feel so much better after seeing this chiropractor. Breathing better and able to sit for long periods of time without all the aches and pains. Recommend this chiropractor highly. Pleasant and clean environment with friendly employees!
Friendly staff, super great and quick adjustments. My back has never felt better and after a year I still look forward to my weekly adjustments to help my back to keep improving. I work a desk job so I used to sit way too much and have terrible posture, coming here has greatly reduced my pain, helped me sit with better posture and I get up and move alot more often now. I highly recommend coming here and checking them out.
I have been attending the practice for about a month now, but have used chiropractic for years on and off. Dr. Frank is unlike most chiropractors and does not do the traditional snap-crackle-pop that must have done on me. Instead he uses a scan tool to analyze your spine and find the root causes of pain. For the adjustments, he uses a tool to perform precise adjustments creating less discomfort (at least for me).
Dr. Frank is really great at what he does. Office is new and easy to find. I've seen a big improvement with my migraines that I've had for many years. His technique is very gentle and I leave not feeling like a twisted pretzel.
It'll be a year since I started lifeworks. Dr. Norton has been so encouraging in my achieving relief from pain. I've came a long way... about 40-50% improved, off of the horrible norco and have really limited my intake of pain meds. Thank you Dr. Norton!
Love this place
It's been good, I'm very happy very satisfied
I have had chronic neck pain for years. It would get so bad sometimes I could not move my head without pain, my arms and hands would go numb. I was in pain sitting/standing/laying. I would hold my head a certain way and I tried everything. Dr. Frank and his staff are caring and informative. I noticed a huge improvement in my pain and numbness after a few adjustments. I would recommend Dr. Frank and his staff to anyone with neck pain or looking to improve their overall life!
I've been to many chiropractic offices and this has been one of my best experiences. They really care about helping all of their patients get healthier and live better lives.
Dr. Norton cares so much about his patients! I'm so glad that I decided to try out a chiropractor. I feel a lot better after being established under care.
great service staff and dr. was great
