Extremely Pleased
My doctor and his excellent staff have treated my wife and myself for several years now. We have been extremely pleased with the treatment, care and compassion exhibited by my doctor and everyone else at Oak Creek Relief and Wellness. The facilities there are all also state of the art for acute care, wellness and fitness.
As a pastor I also take very seriously who I recommend to my congregation, but we have been so well treated at Oak Creek Relief and Wellness that I have referred several church members to his care. To me that is the highest measure of confidence I can give. I endorse him without hesitation!

Decompression Program Helped Me Avoid Surgery
As a school bus driver, I had an accident Sept. 11, 2000 resulting in whiplash and bulging discs. I was so pleased to receive help without surgery at Oak Creek Relief & Wellness. It was FANTASTIC there! My lower back hurt so much it made my life a trial. I’d sleep for one hour then wake in pain, shift positions, fall asleep, just to wake to do it all over again in another hour or so. This went on for almost 7 years. There are so many benefits to Dr. Krimpelbein’s Decompression Program. I can feel my butt, my toes can now hold my sandals on, I walk, dance, do outside as well as house work with no pain. I can drive or ride to our cabin without pain.

Low Back & Neck Pain Relief
I originally came into Oak Creek Relief & Wellness in January 2011 with lower back and neck pain. The back had been bugging me for about 15 years, and the neck had been about 5 years. When the pain had first started back in the day, it would come and go, and wasn’t much of a concern. Only the last few months to a year did it become pretty constant, so I sought treatment.
Like many, I was a bit skeptical of chiropractic at first. I had heard the stories about them being bone crunchers, certain injuries, etc., all of which are misinterpreted. After sitting down with my doctor and learning what type of program he would put me on, it made sense to give it a try. I felt things were explained very well, I knew what I could expect from the plan, and I was inspired to get going.
At this time, about 4 months into correction and treatment, I am pretty much pain free. I still have some slight pains when I wake up in the morning, but it pretty much goes away within a half hour, and the rest of the day is great! It has continued to get better every day it seems.
The experience that made me particularly happy was the fact that I have gotten results that have been, and seem as if they’ll continue to be long term, rather than just the quick fix that didn’t last, or just masking the pain with medication. I am able to basically carry on with life’s daily activities without experiencing back and neck pains. Another benefit is that we also discussed overall health issues/improvements during my visits, which has helped me get back on track physically through exercise and diet.
The main advice I would give anyone with similar issues is that if you are living with pain and feel that it’s just something you have to live with, it’s not true! If you take the time to truly learn what chiropractic care is about and give it a chance, your quality of life really can be improved.

Simple Things Have Become Simple Again
I had been dealing with pain in my upper back area since about 1985, but it never was constant until about 3 years ago. My whole right side of my neck, shoulder, and upper back area would ache, burn, and at times, be sharp shooting pain. The pain was so bad that I couldn’t sleep through the night. It also interfered with housework, dressing, doing my hair and writing. The simple things were no long simple. It got to the point where I could not lift my grandsons, which broke my heart. I didn’t know what to do, and over-the-counter pain relievers I tried wouldn’t work at all, no matter which I tried. Believe me there was quite a few I took. I tried physical therapy too. I had about 20ish sessions of PT, but still had pain!
Besides just less pain, the simple things have become simple again! Dressing, doing my hair, housework, no problem! I can sleep through the night without pain. I can even write this testimonial for my doctor pain-free, something that was so hard to do before I became a patient of his. I have become a fun grandma again to my wonderful grandkids. I can lift them up and play with them, and it warms my heart to see their smiling faces when we are having fun together.
I have been so relieved of my aches and pains, and how they were affecting my life, people shouldn’t hesitate to see a chiropractor. Better yet see my doctor. I feel so much better all over thanks to him. You’re in the right place! Thank you Big Bend Relief and Wellness and my doctor!

Decompression Gave Dancing Back to Me
I first became Dr. Krimpelbein’s Decompression patient early April 2007. Overall, I felt Oak Creek Relief & Wellness is a very professional place with a positive and friendly staff. It is a nice, well-equipped facility. Due to my work schedule, I am generally not available during the regular clinic hours. Thanks to the doctors and staff’s willingness to come in early, I was very happy that I was able to minimize my time away from my job. Now I can dance again (pain free). I literally couldn’t make my feet move to dance before.
-Susie R. (South Milwaukee, WI)
Decompression is Outstanding!
I became a patient after watching an ad on TV for Dr. Krimpelbein’s Decompression Program. I called the toll-free number on the screen and they sent me free information and referred me to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness. I think this is one of the best places I have ever been for the problems I was having. I have never been anywhere that is more concerned about you, the patient. I was very happy with the way I was tested before anything was even done and being told that the Decompression Program may help me. After only 5 treatments on the machine I could feel a vast improvement on all the things that were giving me trouble.

Try Chiropractic Before Surgery!
After I was diagnosed with degenerative discs, it was recommended that I have surgery to fix the problem, a few months later, there was very little improvement, and soon my symptoms were back. Desperate, I found the Oak Creek Relief & Wellness website through research on my own, since I already had the surgery with 3 disc fused, I wasn’t sure they could help.
I only wish I had been given other options by the surgeon to try before going through with a surgery that only left me with the same symptoms I had before I went in. I would recommend my doctor to anyone going through a similar situation or anyone needing help and relief from pain to consider trying chiropractic care, before agreeing to any surgery.
-Lynn A. (Milwaukee, WI)
Great Success!
The problem that initially brought me to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness was neck pain and lower back pain. The neck had been bothering me for a few months, on and off, and the lower back pains had been there for a few years. I wouldn’t say any of it was constant, but the frequency of which I felt it was increasing.
In the past, I hadn’t tried anything as far as other treatments. Mostly I’ve just dealt with it, as I’m not the kind of person to look for drugs or surgery for any small problem, and the pain was manageable. However, having these pains was a daily reminder that something was wrong.
Aside from the help with my symptoms, I have learned a great deal about the spine and the body, as my doctor took the time to “educate” along with his treatment, which you don’t get too often nowadays. Another thing that made me very happy was the initial “special” which brought me in the door. I realized that for just a small amount of money that I could at least find out what might be causing the problem, what if anything my doctor could do about it, what it would take, and how much it would cost. That brought me in, and the results I experienced kept me coming back!
Besides just the relief, some of the other benefits I have from this place is I now have the confidence to do certain exercises knowing they aren’t harming me, and I have the encouragement to keep exercising. The information they provide really helps one understand the structure of the body and why it’s so important.
I would tell anyone with problems like I had to see my doctor for a work-up and a report of findings, and then based on the reasons behind it and the results I’ve had, FOLLOW THE PROGRAM THAT IS PRESCRIBED.

Shoulder and Knee Pain Relief
Before I came to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness, I was suffering constantly from shoulder pain (both shoulders) and knee pain (both knees). I have been dealing with this pain for years and have been affecting my every day life during sleep, performing home chores and even playing with my grandchildren. I have tried physical therapy, medications, injections and even surgery, All of which helped me minimally, but it wasn’t as long as I would like. I was discouraged that I would have to live with this for the rest of my life.
For treatment, my doctor gave me exercises to perform at home as well as chiropractic adjustments and within 2-3 weeks, I was starting to see a difference. What I value most about coming in to see my doctor was that my shoulders and knee are not as painful as they used to be and I can perform the chores around the house as well as take care of my grandchildren. I am enjoying life. Not only do I come to see my doctor, but my granddaughter comes into the office and has found to have great results.

Relief has been Both Physical & Mental
The main problems which I had dealt with for over 15 years that initially brought me in to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness clinic was neck pain and low back pain. My pain came and went to an extent, but was around more than it was gone. I had been to another chiropractor for treatments in the past, with which I had minimal improvements. These pain bouts I was dealing with kept me from functioning normally. I couldn’t do a lot of household chores or even walk in the yard without a lot of pain. Sometimes I could hardly stand up straight or even have such pain I would have to stop what I was doing.
I began care with my doctor and Oak Creek Relief & Wellness in March of 2010. My experience here has helped me more than I ever thought imaginable – not only physically, but even mentally.
Another specific benefit has been the chiropractic adjustments. The manual adjustments that are made to my neck by my doctor are unbelievable. I was always in pain, always had headaches, could not move my head from side to side like I should. He has made my neck, head and shoulders feel like I’m 20 years old again!
If anyone has problems like the ones I have had with my spine, I highly recommend they try Oak Creek Relief & Wellness. Surgeries are hardly ever the answer to relief. Sometimes it takes finding the right doctor, and that I have done!

Improvement in as Little as 2 Weeks
I started at Oak Creek Relief & Wellness in December 2010 for lower back pain. Before I started, I had low back discomfort for approximately 6 months and it was starting to get constant and kept getting worse. Medications did not seem to help much and the pain was starting to affect my sleep and work. Since I walk for long periods of time throughout the day at work, it was starting to get unbearable. I have seen a chiropractor in the past, so I already knew that chiropractic was a great option for me, so I sought out care at Oak Creek Relief & Wellness.
After about two weeks, I started to see improvements in my symptoms and it got better from then on. I do not wake up with the stiffness as much as I did before and walking at work is easier. I would recommend Oak Creek Relief & Wellness to anyone with back pain. The doctors, techs and other office staff are very nice and helpful. I already recommend them to co-workers and family of mine.
-Scott L. (Franklin, WI)
Chiropractic Works
When I first started at Oak Creek Relief & Wellness, I had left upper back and shoulder pain as well as pain into my lower back. I have had these pains and discomforts for approximately eight years and it would come and go throughout the years. It would normally start or get aggravated more while sitting at my desk, which is how I spend most of my time while at work.
All of the staff has been very helpful and pleasant. They have all helped me realize my bad habits and how I can correct them. The facility itself is kept clean and orderly which is great.

Chiropractic got Me Back to an Active Lifestyle!
I came to see my doctor in the fall of 2009 with joint pain primarily in my knee and shoulder as I am an active person so tend to be pretty hard on my body, so was looking at just overall wellness. My knee pain had been going on for over a year after a marathon, and the shoulder pain came shortly after. The knee pain would come and go based on how far I was running and the shoulder pain was fairly constant, but would become aggravated with certain exercises.
I had spoken to my doctor about my knee pain and his answer was to “quit running” and for my shoulder taking medication and long periods of rest. These options were not sufficient for me because they prevented me from leading the active lifestyle that I love to do. I am also sensitive to medication and wanted to address the pain vs. just mask it with medication.
My doctor provided me with different therapy options to allow me to get back to my activities as soon as possible, whether it was with adjustments, kinesio tape or electrical stimulation treatments. Also, she gave me exercises I could do on my own to help treat the problems. She worked with me until the issues were fixed! My care opened my eyes to the different types of treatments for various issues and the importance of taking care of your body (and not just from a nutrition and fitness standpoint!)
About 6 months after I started seeing my doctor I was rear-ended in a car accident. The accident seemed minor but had a severe headache starting the following day. I didn’t hesitate to head right in to see my doctor and she was able to do adjustments and get me feeling back to 100% after the accident. My doctor has provided me treatments to keep me healthy so that I can continue to lead an active lifestyle and also keep me healthy so I can continue to work hard with my clients.
Before getting treatment I only thought chiropractors provided services to help with back problems. Don’t only seek out chiropractic services for just back issues. Let them know about other stuff going on and chances are there is something they can do to help!

Chronic Low Back Pain Relief
I was suffering from chronic pain in my lower back which I had known was from a degenerative disc condition. I had been dealing with this pain for many years, probably accelerated by an injury on the job in the 1970’s. Always in some type of constant pain, overall things just kept getting worse over the years.
My whole life was affected in one way or another. This started in the 70’s, so I was still working, and it made my pressure laden job that much more difficult. Yard work, chores, water skiing, hunting, and my golf game were also key parts of my life that were affected. I even gave up golf a few years while still working.
The treatments I have received have helped me considerably. The balance of the program, between the spinal decompression, exercises, and chiropractic adjustments gave me almost immediate relief, and my golf game has progressed from me being one of the poorer scorers in our group of octogenarians, to me being the consistent better score. I have also noticed improved balance, greatly reduced pain, and more flexibility making me able to do chores, golf and dance “rock n roll” style again!
I was very grateful to be under the care of such a well qualified, positive, caring and knowledgeable chiropractor in Dr. Scott Simon, and the best part being he gets favorable results with his patients. My advice for anyone suffering similarly to what I was is to consult with my doctor and Oak Creek Relief & Wellness to find out if this would be right for you too. Like my case, it could change your life.

Greatly Improved Spine & Health
I had spent 2-3 years with a few areas of complaint. One area was my lower neck, upper back area, which was a come-and-go ache, but more constant before beginning care here. Others were persistent sore ankles, and occasional bouts with plantar fasciitis.
I had tried other remedies for a while…pain killers, which I knew weren’t fixing anything, but only covering up the pain I was having. Eventually, my medical doctor had referred me for physical therapy rehab for my neck. At the time there was minimal relief from that. Basically, the effects on my life varied, but at times, everything I did was in some way affected. The quality of life I had in the past just wasn’t there anymore
Overall, my view of this practice now is extremely good. My doctor is very professional, confident in the services he provides, and has a no-nonsense approach to chiropractic, all while keeping patients feeling comfortable. I currently maintain my greatly improved spine and health with nutritional supplements, home exercises, and regular adjustments.
My advice to everyone, but especially those with similar problems that I had: go chiro first. They can do wonders without drugs or surgery, and because they deal with the nervous system working properly, they can help almost anyone!

Unexplainable Leg Issues Resolved with Chiropractic
I was dealing with a great deal of pain in my right hip and lower back area which originally brought me in to see my doctor at Oak Creek Relief & Wellness on May 6th, 2010. I had been dealing with flare-ups off and on for a while, but the time that really brought me in had occurred 10 days prior to my first appointment.
I had a unique type pain, as it was almost as if my right leg was “go out”, and I’d be unable to walk, stand, sit, sleep, or drive. In the past it was never this bad, but at the time I had first come into the office here, it was constant and extreme. It affected everything in my life and I couldn’t even do normal routine things. I spent a great deal of time sitting on ice bags, and sometimes alternating with heat, but that only helped me minimally.
Advice I would have for people with a problem similar to what I had: seek chiropractic treatment! I have advised many in this direction, especially as a “first” treatment option.

Consistently Functioning at Higher Levels Thanks to Chiropractic
I live a rather active life. I weight train on a regular basis, snowboard in the winter, mountain bike in the summer, and rock climb indoors and outdoors throughout the year. I am also a kettlebell instructor and personal trainer, and I need to be able to demonstrate movements and exercises in order to earn a living. So maintaining a strong, healthy, and mobile/flexible body is extremely important to me.
But improvement in posture is just the start. My doctor has also helped me to rehab some minor knee and shoulder injuries and has adjusted my shoulders, knees, ankles, and feet. All of this has allowed me to CONSISTENTLY function at a higher level than what I had been able to before. As a personal trainer, I have also referred a couple of my own clients to her… some because of some sports-related injuries and others simply because of back pain or restrictions. From my perspective, it’s comforting knowing that my clients will be able to get back to their training routines sooner because of the fantastic care and focused program/progressions they’ll get from seeing my doctor.

Auto Accident Survivor
On October 15, 2010 I was involved in a multi-vehicle accident on the interstate that resulted in the front and rear of my car being crushed. Due to the multiple hits to the front and rear of my vehicle, I started having pain the included throbbing in my mid and lower back. The discomfort would often occur during normal daily activities. I have had back pain before, but this was different. This pain and throbbing started a few hours after the accident and became noticeable and bothersome during daily activities in the following week.
Before coming to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness, I received no other treatment, other than physical exam immediately following the accident. I was prescribed prescription strength Advil and more at the ER, however, never filled them. For previous back discomfort, I had been prescribed a one month supply of a muscle relaxer that I used on a few occasions. I did not notice any benefit from taking these pills.
I believe that the doctors and staff at Oak Creek Relief & Wellness are committed to helping their patients in a variety of ways in addition to chiropractic adjustments. I am very impressed with all the services and products they offer to treat the whole body. There is a range of rehabilitation and therapy treatments available. I was also provided with a folder and instructional guides on the therapy exercises so I could continue my rehab at home. Oak Creek Relief & Wellness offers all the equipment you need to set up an at home rehab kit. The doctors also have seminars on health, nutrition, etc. I have benefited by asking my doctor about nutrition when I wanted to make healthy eating lifestyle changes. There is also a gym, fitness classes, supplements, orthotics and much more available.
I was very happy that at my first adjustment, a short presentation was given beforehand. The information helped my understand the benefits and ways chiropractic care treats the whole body. It also prepared me for what to expect during an adjustment, since it was a new experience to me. The chiropractic adjustments and therapy exercises have certainly decreased the comfort I was experiencing which has improved by daily living.
I am healthy, moderately active person and normal weight. However, I have wanted to eat healthier to reduce my risk of heart disease, cancer, inflammatory conditions, etc. I told Dr. Lisa about my desire to benefit from eating better and she has provided me with information and guidance. I attended a presentation recommended and give by my doctor and learned about toxins in the body, nutrition and therapies Oak Creek Relief & Wellness offers. I am so impressed with how my doctor has gone above and beyond to bring the chiropractic care full circle, providing care for the whole body. I think this type of benefit with improve my life for years to come!
As someone new to chiropractic care after my accident, I would say to try this path of treatment first. You may need to give it some time, but it will provide relief that pills may only mask and cause you to rely on instead of treating the real issues. You may find that it opens doors to other benefits, too if you are willing to take advantage of them. In my experience, Oak Creek Relief & Wellness chiropractic care is more than adjusting your spine, it promotes whole body wellness.

Sciatica Relief
Sciatica in my left leg & hip brought me to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness in September 2013. I have been having pain for 8 years. I had received physical therapy, medications and injections for the condition prior to coming to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness. It was hard for me to sleep or do physical work.
Within 2 weeks of receiving treatments at Oak Creek Relief & Wellness I started seeing results. I felt instant relief from even the first treatment on the ATM. My pain is reduced to a point that allows me to work at my current job and also to participate with family activities. Without the relief the therapy I received at Oak Creek Relief & Wellness gave me, I feel I would have had to turn to surgery.

Decompression Gives Results
Pain in my Low back and in both legs brought me to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness in December 2013. Two back specialists had said that they wouldn’t do any surgery to correct my problem because it would be a massive undertaking and might result in my condition becoming worse.
I had no doubts that chiropractic would help me. Within a few disc decompression treatments I started seeing results and felt the pressure releasing off of my discs and nerves. I can stand straighter and for longer periods of time.
I am very pleased and grateful to finally be getting help and seeing results. I now feel like I have a life to look forward to without pain, like a light at the end of a very deep, dark tunnel. Don’t keep wasting your money going from doctor to doctor without any results and having to wait months to get in to see a specialist. I called Oak Creek Relief & Wellness and got in to see the doctor in just a few days. I tell everybody about the results I’ve seen in this short period of time.
-Kathleen A.
Sciatica Relief
I came to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness in September 2012 because of leg and sciatica pain in my right leg that had been occurring on and off for for months. I did not know if chiropractic would help me, but I was willing to try. It was recommended that I receive therapy, and I saw results within just a few weeks.
The pain has gone away and now my quality of life is better because I can sleep. I would advise people with the same problem as me to visit Oak Creek Relief & Wellness to get better quickly.

Degenerated Discs Pain Relief
I was told that I would have to learn to live with the pain in my lower back from degenerated discs before I came into Oak Creek Relief & Wellness in October 2014. I’d had the pain since 1994 whenever I tried to move or do something. It was difficult to do any walking, standing or chores. I had to get up once a night to rub pain cream on my lower back. ??We were happy when Dr. Ken said he couldn’t make me into a 28 year old man, but could definitely improve my condition. At first we didn’t know if the treatments would work very well, but nothing else had worked in the past, so we were hopeful this would and were willing to give it our best and only shot. With the use of supplements and back cream, night pain was eliminated immediately.
-Gordon A.
Peripheral Neuropathy Management
I came to Oak Creek Relief & Wellness after dealing with 12 years of peripheral neuropathy of the hands and feet. I’m 60 years old and I was on my way to be “wheelchair bound,” the pain was so severe and constant the past 2 years. I previously went to a physician who prescribed me medication, which gave me unwanted side effects, i.e. weight gain and muscle pain. I discontinued the drug and considered acupuncture but I did not pursue this. I constantly took over the counter pain medications to no avail. One evening, 8 months ago, I drove by Oak Creek Relief & Wellness and saw a sign posted on a window “Peripheral Neuropathy Treatments.” Desperate, I made an appointment.
I was extremely impressed with the office and the doctor. The cleanliness and professionalism of staff members included kindness, concern and empathy. There was no “hard sell.” Dr. Ken and Dr. Jon explained in lay person’s terminology the process of treating peripheral neuropathy and the prognosis thereof. The caring staff makes me feel welcome every time I walk through the door. Dr. Ken and Dr. Jon have given me ongoing support and motivation to continue treatment and Dan works directly with me with the “Rebuilder” and “Ultraviolet Boots” regimen. Dan is an avid distance runner and he has motivated me to exercise and lose weight.??I absolutely had doubts that any treatments would help. I thought, “How could chiropractic intervention be effective when medications were ineffective? How could this intervention work because not one physician recommended this much less event heard of it?” Interestingly, I’ve discussed Oak Creek Relief & Wellness with two physicians that have family members who suffer from peripheral neuropathy and referred them!
“The Rebuilder” intervention was recommended to me. This treatment is where your hands and feet are immersed in warm water, electrodes are inserted into the water, and electrical impulses travel through your hands and feet for approximately 25 minutes per session. Then your feet are placed in ultraviolet lighted boots for an additional 25 minutes. I’ve had 40 treatments, but results were measurable after just 4 treatments!??Oak Creek Relief & Wellness has enabled me to walk again – period! I will be 61 years of age. I have not golfed in 20 years, in part due to employment obligations, but equally because of peripheral neuropathy. I recently purchased a set of golf clubs. This is a major milestone for me as I never thought I could play golf again, even with a golf cart because there is still walking involved. Most people take a task like walking for granted…and, I did too! Peripheral neuropathy and its compromising effect on one’s walking ability is a true testimonial that a person should never take mobility or life globally for granted.
Oak Creek Relief & Wellness clearly utilizes a holistic approach to treating patients. For example, not only have my peripheral neuropathy symptoms been treated, I have learned that by dietary habits needed adjusting to promote overall healthy living. I’ve lost close to 10 pounds by simply eating healthier. For instance, instead of driving through fast food restaurants, I now will make myself a salad. Instead of fried foods I will eat skinless chicken.
The major health benefits I value the most that I’ve received with Oak Creek Relief & Wellness are peripheral neuropathy treatments, healthy eating and exercise. Please understand that peripheral neuropathy may be an ongoing endeavor for the rest of your life. I would suspect that many people afflicted with a disorder such as peripheral neuropathy may drop out of treatment when they begin to feel sufficiently better. Don’t drop out! In all probability you will relapse and start again from ground zero. Stick with it! Your body will tell you when to set up additional appointments. ??Don’t procrastinate! Contact the staff of Oak Creek Relief & Wellness for a consultation and get moving and stick with the regimen.
