Testimonials

“The Optimal Wellness Center in Zionsville is a one of a kind experience for individuals who want to create wellness in their lives. I began seeing Dr. Lauren in April after severe abdominal pain that lasted at least three months. Not being a fan of traditional medicine and/or antibiotics I pursued a holistic approach to my pain and healing. My first visit was fantastic. I was greeted by a wonderful receptionist and placed in a massage chair while I waited – which was only for a few minutes or so. Dr. Lauren showed me my scans and what places in my body I need to pay better attention to. We found out in fact my stomach was not communicating well with my nervous system – holistic lessons learned . I was given my own personal road to wellness plan and I am here to say that I have been PAIN FREE ever since. Literally not one attack since April.

I cannot thank The Optimal Wellness Center, Dr. Lauren and her team for giving me the belief that if I live a healthy lifestyle, eat well, live well and receive routine chiropractic adjustments wellness will happen. The best thing I learned is that even if you are pain free it does not necessarily mean you are healthy. There is only a small percent of your nervous system that can feel “pain.” It is very important to get scanned and routinely adjusted to reach your optimum health!”

I love my OWC family, everyone there is wonderful to work with they are kind, understanding and very knowledgeable. I started going to the OWC (Optimal Wellness Center) back in May 2010 and my health & state of mind has gotten so much better. I’ve had problems with stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, headaches and lower back pain for years. No matter what meds the doctors gave me or what ever I tried it wasn’t working, I wasn’t getting any better. A good friend told me about the OWC and I tried it out.

I’ve learned so much from Dr. Lauren and her staff about how meds, stress and the things we eat can effect your whole body and how it functions. In the past months I have got adjustments, cleanses, foot bath detox, massages, education on meds, eating healthier and so much more. Little by little I’m making changes, trying new things, got off the meds and learning healthier choices. I can proudly say today my stress levels are down and all my other problems are either gone or gotten much better. Plus people around me are noticing the positive changes. Thanks OWC!!

“Take cortisone shots every three months, ortho visc every 6 months, ice the knee when home, and take 2 Aleve 2 times a day. This is as good as it gets-still no steps and no long walks. As far as your job- you walk on cement floors, you have to figure that one out. As far as exercise, you can use a stationary bike, and swim. Some patients have used glucosamine chondroitin to help with the symptoms. You can do this until you get no more relief and then we can get you a knee replacement, but 51 years old is a little young to do a replacement…are you sure you were not an athlete?”

The previous statement was given to this patient from a well respected orthopedist in Indiana. There was no hope. My life and my career were gravely altered. We took our family vacation that summer with me in a wheel chair and limited on any participation on activities planned. I returned to teaching that fall with a cane and limited walking time with increased pain medication. It was as the doctor said, 3 months for cortisone, 6 months for ortho visc, but there was no complete relief and I had very limited motion in my knee.

I had been completely active and one morning as I was walking down the hallway of my home, my knee buckled the opposite way it is meant to move and the pain was excruciating. Doctors’ visits, x-rays, MRIs, and treatments were to be my life, but it didn’t feel right to me. How could bone on bone in the knee change everything? There had to be more that could be done. By this time, my whole body was getting out of alignment as a result of my gait changing for the pain in my knee.

In a newsletter that I received from a health food store, I heard about Optimal Wellness and the mission they have for complete wellness. Cold laser was an option for treatments, so I began to search the Mayo Clinic Website for confirmation that the treatments mentioned were legitimate. Indeed, I found my confirmation and since then have found many more. My Optimal Wellness treatment combination has been life saving for me. After about 3 months of treatments ( a combination of chiropractic adjustments, cold laser, and graston techniques) I had motion in my knee that I had not had for a year. A year into my wellness plan, my knee is not an issue in my life…95% of the time.

Are there still times of discomfort when I overdue activities? Absolutely, but the excruciating pain has not reoccurred. Will I have to revert to conventional treatments eventually?…I don’t know. All I know is that for the last year, I have my life back. I can bend my knee, I can walk with my grandchildren, I can teach students and feel like I have a life. I do not feel dependent on doctors, I feel free to live life as God had intended for me.

Dr. Montieth Cares!

As a long time customer of Georgetown Market, I was so excited for my first visit during opening week of Optimal Wellness Center to see what Dr. Lauren offered. I scheduled my first Neuro Spinal Functional Exam, waited for the results … and grew anxious planning my course of action. OWC is exactly what I had been searching for. Dr. Lauren listens to your needs and works around your ups and downs. Her knowledge has no limits – but if she doesn’t know the answer, she will help you find it.

The Optimal Wellness Center is warm, calm and beautiful. I just love being greeted by ROXY and enjoy the friendly and helpful staff that are always willing to help with questions and needs. My two grandkids are always so happy to go and see Miss. Lauren too!

Dr. Montieth CARES about your health, body and soul and wants you to live a whole and healthy life free of pain and toxins, and full of energy, love, and happiness.

I am so glad I have the Optimal Wellness Center and the support of Dr. Montieth in my life…

“For almost 6 years, my son had constant, terrible ear infections that would last for weeks. Our days and nights were spent listening to screaming and cleaning pillow cases that were soaked with fluid from his ears. We had tubes put in his ears at age 2 which did not resolve the infections. After only a few adjustments with Dr Lauren, his earaches subsided and have not returned! We are absolutely thrilled.

To make things even better, I had a terrible pain in my foot that ended up leaving me bed-ridden for days. Dr Lauren came and treated me a few times and completely resolved the pain. When I had a head cold for two weeks, I got adjusted – and immediately felt better! Dr Lauren has made a profound impact on my life and my family’s. We are so thankful to have found such a compassionate, educated chiropractor!”

“Ten years ago I first experienced lower back pain to the degree that I had to find a new occupation. At which time I began the process of trying different chiropractors to solve my problems. To no avail. This persisted until my experience with Dr. Lauren Montieth of Optimal Wellness Chiropractic. Dr. Lauren’s expertise enabled me to once again experience life as an active adult.

I can sleep at night without painful interruption and partake in other mundane tasks that were once a painful chore. Not only am I physically satisfied with the treatment , I also had many epiphanies about my own physiology during consultation with her. Simply put, I now feel like I am 19 and not 49″

“I am so thankful to have found OWC. I first started chiropractic care in my early 20’s and I have FINALLY found the path to relief that I have been searching for through OWC. I am still on my journey for better health, but I believe the knowledge and training that I receive from Optimal Wellness has me directed on the right path and I am so thankful for that. I originally came in because of pain and discomfort in my toes. I have continued coming because of the overall improvements in my health and life. I have seen improvements in my energy levels and outlook on life and overall well-being. I am more positive, have much less pain, much more function and movement, and am finally taking care of myself physically, nutritionally, and psychologically.”
