John Painter travels the world hunting and fishing…so when a car accident left him stooped over and in pain, he felt like a entirely different person. He says, “I met Steve, aka Dr. Harris, through Rotary almost fifteen years ago (we have both been District Governors). After I got to know him, I came to him at the Sugar Land Health Center for an occasional adjustment. In fact, he fixed my shoulder from an old baseball pitching injury. Then in 2010 I was in a serious auto accident. I had a broken neck, seven crushed vertebrae, and hurt my elbow and my knee. For a year I was under the care of a neurologist and wore a brace to stabilize my neck for six months…further reducing my mobility. I could hardly turn my head, had severe pain between my shoulders and could only go a couple of hours a day before I had to sit down…and stay down! My entire life I’ve had almost military posture. Shoulders back, chin up. I have always been a very active person…and I wanted to get back to my life. We began therapy understanding that was the goal.”

“I told my doctor I wanted to go the chiropractic route for my physical therapy and I had three different chiropractors with in-office therapists under consideration. He said whomever I chose would need to write a letter explaining in detail their treatment plan for me…then he gave the okay to Dr. Harris. I proceeded with treatment because I was impressed with Dr. Harris’s chiropractic ability, his therapist, and his equipment including an oscillator, a hot laser machine, and a Triton DTS disc decompression machine. For six to eight months I drove forty minutes each way from the far side of Houston three to four times a week (right past a hundred other chiropractic offices) until I completed therapy. Now I just come to his office for an occasional tune-up.”
“What was the end result? I went hunting in Alaska for moose, carried my pack and rifle, and kept up with all the walking. Later I went hunting in Africa and Argentina and fishing on the Amazon in Brazil…without any problems at all. I’m not in any pain and can go all day without stopping…I’m even back to riding my motorcycle! Years ago I had a little motorcycle incident and knocked my knuckle out of place. It stayed that way for years and had started throbbing at night…but Dr. Harris fixed that too! I’m 73 years old and very happy with the results of my chiropractic therapy. I’ve referred my own wife and my former secretary to Dr. Harris. Thanks to him, I recovered without any surgery on my neck or back!”
