Here's the deal! If you opt into their wellness program, you have to pay up front and if you do not experience any improvement, oh well, too bad, so sad. They've got your money and you are stuck making payments until your Care Credit loan is paid off!

This is the situation I am in now. The personalized program they set me up on cost me $6,466!!!!! This was for 3 MONTHS of wellness, possibly six. PLUS, that DOES NOT include ASEA, which is a monthly MLM supplement that they say "works with the program" and you "need to be on." That's an additional $200/month. PLUS, there is the protein powder that cost $48-and-change per bag, monthly. PLUS, there are the Beyond Organic supplements and foods that you have to buy that are an additional cost.

They sit you in a room and put you in, what they refer to as the "Hot Seat." Appropriately termed as I felt intimidated when presented the cost of the program, and although I was sick to my stomach when I saw the price, I signed the deal anyway. My bad. Kicking myself every month now when I make that payment.

The wellness program included two visits per week: one for lipo laser which supposedly draws toxins out of your fat, a chiropractic adjustment, and a muscle testing allergy treatment. The second visit is an ionic foot soak, a chiropractic adjustment, and a muscle testing allergy treatment.

The $6,466 fee includes a cellular healing diet plan, cookbook, and some supplements.

After five months, my inhaler use increased from one inhaler per month to 1-1/2!! NOT GOOD ... especially when paying such an exorbitant fee to feel batter!! I followed the diet, did everything I was told to do and when I caught a cold, I was sick - in bed - for 16 days! Very unusual. Also, since Dr. Jim wanted me off all fruits due to their sugar content, I started getting severe muscle spasms in my shin bones and in my rib cage. Turned out I was potassium deficient. I believe that occurred as a result of removing bananas from my diet, because before this "wellness plan" I would drink a smoothie every morning that included a banana, almond butter, kale and coconut water. Bananas = potassium.

The "next phase" of my wellness program was going to cost me just shy of $500 in more supplements. This is where I drew the line and decided to cut my losses. I could not see throwing any more money at a program that obviously was NOT working for me, so I opted out. When I told the office manager, Sonja, her entire demeanor changed. She went from being sweet as pecan pie to sticking her nose up in the air and saying, "Your choice" and walking away from me without even allowing me to finish explaining. At this point, it was completely obvious that if I was not going to keep throwing money at them, she was not interested in what I had to say. So sad, because I had hoped to continue seeing Dr. Jim for adjustments but that attitude changed my mind.

I found another local chiropractor where I get acupuncture and adjustments. I started juicing again (something Dr. Jim is opposed to as he prefers blended drinks), added fruit back into my diet and in less than a week, I am down to 2-5 puffs on my inhaler DAILY!!! This is down from 12-15 puffs just to get through the night!!! I'm also sleeping through the night without coughing fits. HUGE IMPROVEMENT in a very short period of time! And it only cost me $45/session for acupuncture ... AS NEEDED! No monumental financial commitment, no pressure, no up-front fees, no contract!

It makes me even sicker to say that when I added all the incidentals (ASEA, Protein Powder, Beyond Organic, etc) to the original plan price, in the five months that I went to Acworth Wellness Center, it cost me close to $9000. When you figure that out monthly, that comes out to $1800 PER MONTH!! That's more than twice what I pay for my mortgage!!!!

Sad to say that Acworth Wellness was NOT GOOD for my health... physical or financial!!!! =(

I and my entire family have been treated at this office for the past 14 years! The service is incredible. I love how we are treated as a person and not just a number. I honestly feel like family. We've been treated for allergies, chiropractic, skin conditions and have gone through a complete body detoxification. Service is A+

We have been patients of the Acworth Wellness Center for so many years and we really can't say enough about him and his staff. Friendly, caring, skilled and knowledgeable is how I would describe them. Don't wait if your health is a concern to you. Get in to see them ASAP. Our family loves and trusts the Acworth Wellness Center.

I trust Dr. Jim and his staff with my family and that says a LOT!!! The detox programs, weight loss program, allergy treatments, chiropractic adjustments, everything! I would never even think about looking for another wellness center.
