I started seeing Dr. Carr when I was recently rear ended and hurt my neck. He's friendly, honest and truly understands the human body. We did my first visit, which included X-rays. We looked at how the accident affected my neck and back, and what the recommendations were for continuing forward. We set up a plan which I agreed to follow 100% for the best results. Let me just tell you what a difference a month makes!
Thank God I tried again and wound up in Dr. Carr's skilled hands when the migraines were joined with annoying lower back pain! Not only have I been migraine-free for six months, my whole feeling of health has improved. I don't feel crouched or hunched when I'm working at my desk, and the more appropriate alignment of my neck has meant I feel when I'm out of proper posture and get up and walk around to rejuvenate.
I would not have recovered so quickly without Dr. Carr's work. He's been doing this for a long time and his experience shows. He is 100% committed to his practice and his patients. Also, as a former professional athlete he has the experience to work with athletes who are recovering from injury or who are looking to maintain peak performance (not just broken-down duffers like me). He is also one of the most genuine and positive people you will meet. I always leave this office with a smile.
I've been getting adjusted by Dr. Carr for a few months now and it has improved my sleeping so much. I used to have low back pain that would make me have a restless leg and I would wake up at night bc I would get frustrated. Now I sleep through the entire night. He is amazing at explaining everything very thoroughly and his staff is just amazing! They are very friendly and always recieve me with so much energy. He helped me and I am more than confident he can help everyone else too! Love this place!
I had a very positive first experience at Stanford Chiropratic. I was having some lower back pain and was able to get an appointment the same day I called in. The team was very welcoming and very detailed in finding out what was happening with me, I did not feel rushed. They also did a great job explaining the medical terms and how it applied to my situation. Very courteous staff and I'll definitely be back for a follow up.

“We came out strong in the first quarter,” said Coach Debby Steensma. “In the second quarter, we could not make the adjustments or get any shots. We finally settled down in the second half, but we got into too much of hurry for our shots.”
For the Lions, they suffered a tough loss to Cornerstone, 58-38. Senior Patrick Binzer led the team with 25 points, 18 rebounds, 4 steals and 1 block.
“We came out nervous in the first quarter,” said Coach Jim Steensma. “But in the next three quarters, the boys settled down and did better. We outscored them the rest of the game, but it hurt us that we made too many mistakes early on.”
On Friday, the Lions and Lady Lions were on the road. The Lions traveled to Westlake to face Westlake Academy and the Lady Lions went to Irving to take on Stonegate Academy.
Senior Ashleigh Garvin was outstanding with 13 points, 10 steals, 5 assists and 4 rebounds. Sophomore Hannah Burks was solid with 8 points and 9 rebounds while Fell added 8 rebounds and 3 blocks.
“This was a good game for the girls,” said Debby Steensma. “We did a better job of hitting our shots tonight as everyone on the team scored.”
“Tonight, we could not execute our offense,” said Jim Steensma. “We made some of the same mistakes again from the [Cornerstone] game, but we struggled to break Westlake ’s press and zone defense.”
The WCS Lions’ and Lady Lions’ will play again on Friday at home against district opponents Victory Baptist. The Lady Lions play at 6 p.m. and the Lions play at 7:30 p.m.
