Dr. Prewo’s guidance and intervention through chiropractic care has been transformative. For multiple years I have experienced ongoing pain, decreased range of motion and inability to achieve and maintain the active lifestyle I desire without pain. I sought medical intervention through multiple modalities with minimal and temporary results. I am thankful for the recommendation of a friend to seek care with Dr. Prewo. He spent time to fully assess and understand the extent of my pain. He explained his suggested care plan thoroughly. Dr. Prewo’s care is gentle, progressive and restorative. He thoughtfully answers questions making sure his feedback is understood and checks in regularly to assure continued progress and understanding. Dr. Prewo is fully engaged with his office staff who work as a team to provide a genuine and caring wholistic approach and personalized care. I am grateful for Dr. Prewo’s expertise and talent; I highly recommend his approach and care for others. Less
Dr. Prewo has treated me over the years for problems with my back,shoulders,hip,and leg.After a few treatments,and following his advice on exercises,I always end up pain free!! Everyone in the office is very welcoming and professional.Highly recommend this practice.
Had lower back nerve ablation surgery after 2 years of pain, without success, so I decided to try a chiropractor. Dr. Prewo was highly recommended by trusted friends, and he impressed me when he said “I’m not touching you until I see your X-rays.” Within a few weeks of treatment, I was almost back to normal. After a month of adjustments and stretching exercises, there is still minor pain, but ... More

Chronic headaches/migraines along with neck pain prompted me to see Dr Prewo. After a few months, I no longer need Advil on a daily basis. The results have been life changing. And the office staff is amazing and so accommodating!
I have been coming here for the last 3 months or so, i had initially come in because I was dealing with the worst of headaches and had no idea what it could be.

I workout 5-6 days a week while also being disabled limited to a wheelchair and crutches. Due to all this I put a lot of stress on my body that others may typically not.

If you are going through a similar situation please don’t hesitate to come to this place as the staff is great and the treatment does work!!!! Less
I’ve been coming here for years and the treatment for my lower back has been great. If you stick to a schedule and keep coming the improvement and lack of pain improves your quality of life!

I was scheduling neurosurgery on my lower back at the beginning of COVID when suddenly everything was indefinitely postponed. I had not considered chiropractic treatment, but had tried PT, exercises, bed rest and injections, and nothing helped. I had been nearly immobile for over 6 months, my muscles were atrophying and I was in constant pain. I knew I couldn’t make it a few more months, so I called Westside Chiropractic. I saw Dr. Chris Prewo who asked me to get X-rays. A couple of days later I was there for treatment. On the very first visit, I improved 90%! I never got the surgery! I am back to doing most of the activities I have always enjoyed. I would say that I am 95% better. I see Chris once every week or two as needed. I try to do the stretches and exercises he recommended, and I’m starting to get back to the gym still wearing a mask. I went from not being able to walk from my bed to the car, to walking the dog two miles a day! I’ll downhill ski again this winter just not take too many moguls, and I take it slow. I garden, swim, sail, and windsurf in light winds. I now avoid building stone walls, lifting, jogging, anything else too repetitive. And I now have a good excuse for not raking leaves or shoveling snow! I would say I’m 95% cured and I am very grateful and thankful to Westside Chiropractic and Dr.Prewo! Ann Bonney, Vernon Less
I have been subject to my back going out every so often, with the accompanying pain. I chose Dr. Prewo because he was right around the corner, and his treatment did the trick. I also recommended him to my wife, who was having extreme pain in her back and hips - she could barely walk! Once again, Dr. Prewo worked his magic on her. Thanks, Doc and staff!
Dr Chris is the first chiropractor of many over the past 30 years to finally identify how “stuck” I was! I am now moving and feeling so much better! I can’t thank him enough!!!
Dr. Prewo has been a wonderful resource for alleviating my chronic back and neck pain. I’ve also grown 1.5” since I started working with him. Very impressive considering that I am 46 years old.
Wonderful experience here ! I have been coming for a short time now, but I'm getting very positive results . I have more of a complex genetic issue and Dr. Shepard has been amazing! She is very knowledgeable, kind and compassionate. She genuinely cares. I would recommend her and this practice to anyone.

I’m extremely glad I came to Dr. Prewo @ Westside Chiropractic. I have been in pain for many years making my life rather miserable. Nothing helped and I tried everything. I was talking to my doctor and telling her all the issues I was having and she told me I should see Dr Prewo. I told her I didn’t like chiropractors, I have had a few bad experiences with them. I decided I had nothing to lose and made my appointment. After having the doctor look at my X-rays he explained to me in simple language what was going on. He explained it wasn’t going to be easy and it was going to take some time but if I was committed he believed he could get me some relief. I have been seeing him for a few months now multiple times a week but the relief I have is wonderful. I have had my first full week of no pain. I know I’m not done and still have a long way to go but I am so glad I tried. If you have had a bad experience with a chiropractor give Dr Prewo a chance to look at your case. He is completely honest and he listens, even to things you don’t realize you are communicating. The office staff is wonderful and caring too. I can finally have a day where I’m not in pain and it feels good. Less
Excellent and friendly service. Came in with excruciating hip and lower back pain. Followed the exact orders of the doc and within 6 weeks was on a maintenance plan with no more pain. Highly recommend!!
Dr. Prewo performed a thorough initial assessment of my back. Through a combination of treatment and suggested exercises, I have had excellent back health for the past 5 years. After a recent car accident, Dr. Prewo took great care to ensure that my recovery treatment was as painless as possible.
The doctors and staff at Westside Chiropractic of Tolland are fantastic. When I herniated 2 discs in my low back several years ago, I could barely stand or walk, but I wanted to avoid surgery. Dr. Prewo helped me recover, and I'm back to running as much as I want. He's excellent. His expertise, patience, and kindness are invaluable.
I’ve been a patient at Westside Chiropractic for more than a decade and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Dr. Prewo has treated me for a variety of issues as they’ve come up over the years and it has greatly improved my overall health and my quality of life. I highly recommend this practice and encourage others all the time to make an appointment. You don’t have to live in pain!

Once I saw Dr. Erin and she looked over my previous test results that I had done and ordered a few new ones. She got me on the path to feeling better. Her holistic knowledge of health and how everything fits together is phenomenal. She knows which supplements to try and is one not to over prescribe and will not keep you on something forever if not needed. Above all, she LISTENS and really tries to understand where you're at and what is ailing you and doesn't dismiss any of your symptoms. Thank goodness for Dr. Erin, I feel so much better. Less

My insurance was billed $266 for the first appointment and $120 for the second appointment. My insurance partially discounts the cost, but I owe the majority. Also, the doctor wanted me to visit 2-3 times weekly, which is excessive because I had relatively minor neck/back pain. I visited twice and cancelled all appointments after seeing my first bill. First visited lasted ~45 mins and the second appointment was quick (< 25 mins). Some of their fees (as of April 2023): -Office visit = $141 -Chiropractic manipulation = $60 -Electric stimulation therapy = $35 -Hot or colds packs therapy = $30 Less
Dr. Prewo is very kind and knowledgable! My back pain, neck pain, and headaches have been solved as a result of my treatment at Westside Chiropractic. The adjustments I received (and continue to every 2 weeks) are gentle but effective.
I started going for sciatica pain that I was dealing with on an off for years. A friend recommended Westside chiropractic so I started going. Its been over 6 months since and I have not had any problems with my sciatica sense.

Although I initially made a chiropractic appointment with the desire to ease my hip pain (which has dramatically improve), I can honestly say that Dr. Shepard has helped me improve my overall health and well being tremendously through her expertise in functional medicine. Dr. Shepard helps get to the root cause of your chronic health issues. For me, that was the hormonal havoc that I have experienced for half of my life. Dr. Shepard's functional method looks at the entire body, both physical and mental. It is extremely apparent how passionate and caring she is about helping you achieve your optimal level of health. I have learned so much from her from both her chiropractic and functional care. I recommend Westside Chiropractic of Tolland to everyone! Less

Dr. Prevo is a very knowledgeable in the field of chiropractic. I suffered the past ten years with back pain issues. I would often throw it out doing simple tasks like house cleaning and sneezing. I tried many things to get better including steroid injections. This temporarily took away the pain but it came back. I also continued to have limited mobility. When I met Dr. Prevo this all changed. He evaluated my charts and spoke with me about my concerns. He took the time to get to know me and developed a plan to meet my needs. I started going to him 3 times a week for adjustments. He also educated me on ways to help strengthen my back. I was able to slowly transition to twice a week and now once a week. He goes beyond Chiropractic adjustments, and provides knowledge about stretching and strengthening exercises to help improve quality of living. I have more mobility and am able to be more active consistently thanks to Dr. Prevo. If you are in need of a chiropractor I highly recommend you go and see Dr.Prevo. Less

Before one considers any type of surgery or potent medications to correct a condition or heal an injury, I would greatly recommend that one looks into the option of visiting a chiropractor. I am aware that everyone's body reacts differently to certain types of treatments, but I believe it's at least worth looking into non-evasive treatments before moving on to high risk surgeries with a potential less than satisfactory outcome or to medication that may lead to a devastating dependency. I am not writing with the knowledge of a doctor but rather as an enthusiastic and very satisfied patient of my chiropractor, Dr. Prewo, who had been treating me successfully for 9 months on a regular basis before the unfortunate event of the COVID 19 outbreak. He is very knowledgeable in his field (I did ask him MANY questions over the course of my treatment to which he was always able to give me satisfying answers!) and made me feel very comfortable while under his care. All of the staff has been very friendly and accommodating, as well. Not only am I very happy that I made the decision to visit a chiropractor for my health issue but also for having chosen this facility in order to feel better. Less

I would Highly recommend seeing him. Less
I have been going to see Dr Prewo for almost two years to help correct my back after my hip replacements. He helped correct everything and continues to help keep my back in great shape. I sit a lot for work and seeing him every few weeks really helps with my posture and any pain. I highly recommend this practice.
After my two car accidents, two surgeries, a year of being bedridden, and having the WORST posture, I finally listened to my boss of 8 years and called Westside. The girls at the front desk are amazing, very helpful and also kind, I immediately felt welcome when I walked in the door.

After my two car accidents, two surgeries, a year of being bedridden, and having the WORST posture, I finally listened to my boss of 8 years and called Westside. The girls at the front desk are amazing, very helpful and also kind, I immediately felt welcome when I walked in the door. My first visit with Dr. Chris Prewo, he did an exam, confirmed that my head was definitely beating the race from the rest of my body, and then sent me for XRays. I went to tolland imaging for the xrays (also very nice there, i waited MAYBE 10 minutes) and they gave me the print outs of the XRays!! Very cool to actually see. I brought these XRays to Dr. Chris, at this point he determines that I should be seen 3x a week. After probably a month of seeing Dr Chris 3x a week, I saw and felt a physical difference in my body. I could get through an entire workday without ending up curled up in a ball on the floor of my office, and I finally was able to get back into yoga and just living my life. Dr Chris opened my eyes to the importance of spinal care and also the importance of preventative medicine. If your mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and so on have had bad backs, why would you just want to wait until you also have a "bad back" when instead you can use chiropractic therapy to work to prevent the issue. I have also been seeing Michael, the massage therapist. To put it shortly this man has also changed my life. I try and get a massage every week and a half, the pricing is very reasonable. especially compared to typical massage pricing. He is in no way just a masseuse; this is a person who knows the human body, and works alongside the chiropractic doctors to help heal, and strengthen his patients. I have been to MANY doctors, this is different. This is something you need to want, and fully commit to, but if you do - I promise you that you will see and feel the results. Of course taking handfuls of pills a day is easier, but so is eating McDonalds everyday. Love your body! It's the only one you have :) Less

I injured my back during the early summer of 2017 after doing some construction work around the home. My symptoms were discomfort related, not pain, in my left side lower back with numbness on the left side of my abdomen. The discomfort got progressively worse leading to difficulties with sitting, standing, walking, driving and sleeping. X-rays and an MRI showed spine imbalance, nerve damage, muscle damage and some minor disc damage. A friend of mine highly recommended I seek the services of Dr. Prewo at Westside Chiropractic. He was a former patient of his due to a back injury and is now 100% healed. I was reluctant, never being a fan of chiropractic care, but decided to give it a try. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Dr. Prewo is a wealth of knowledge. I never knew how important the spine/core is to the entire body. He used a combination of techniques to get me back to good health. My plan involved OV treatments, initially 3x week. I am now down to 1x per every two weeks. I did seek a highly qualified Physical Therapist and Message Therapist which helped me understand the importance of stretching and core strengthening. This has been a life changing experience for me. I have made significant improvement over the last 5 months. I can't imagine where I would be without the services of Dr. Prewo and his staff. I would highly recommend Westside Chiropratic if you are struggling with back problems. Less

I'm a very active person who runs and cycles regularly, it's my lifestyle. I had some pretty tough back discomfort and was diagnosed with sciatica. Dr Chris Prewo worked with me to relieve the discomfort, heal, strengthen and find my way back to cycling and running regularly, without issues. I'm vested in my health and greatly appreciate Dr Prewo's engagement and working with me to set expectations and keep me informed through the process, He used a combination of assessments, my feedback, and our conversations to customize a plan back to healthy activity. The plan involved a treatments/office visits and activities such as stretching, strengthening exercises...and then swimming, cycling and running. This was my first experience with back issues and using the services of a Chiropractor. I believe that the path I chose, using Dr Prewo's services, was the best, providing me the quickest route back to health and a foundation to ensure these issues don't return. In addition, I've found the entire staff to be friendly and genuinely interested in my health. Less
Dr Gottier is the best.
Highly recommend Dr. Prewo and Westside Chripractic for all your sports injury and chiropractic needs.
I have been going to West Chiropractic for a couple of years now off and on whenever I have an issue and Dr. Prewo has helped me to be able to continue to enjoy my passion of running. I would highly recommend him to all my friends and family.
I am so pleased with the holistic care for my back. The doctors and massage therapist are caring and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.
The doctors are very knowledgable about whole body healing. They not only treat their patients, but also teach them about their bodies so that they understand how chiropractic care benefits them. A wonderful massage therapist is available as well!!!
Michael gives amazing therapeutic massages. He is caring and professional. He seems to intuitively find muscle aches and knots giving great relief.
