Our Clients Testimonials!
My husband and I teamed up together on the program. We liked what it was all about, a natural approach to weight loss, taught us about eating healthy foods and the weight just came off. We have learned so much with this lifestyle and are both off all of our meds as a result. We re-wrote the next chapters of our lives and couldn't be happier. Kelly is wonderful to work with and she can get you healthier too! ~ Sue B
Testimony from Vickie L. R.N. - Menomonie, WI
My goal in using the ChiroThin program was to improve my health! The six week program was easy for me to follow weekly meetings with Kelly who encourages your progress. Inches and pounds were shedding off, but more importantly I could maintain the weight goal I set. After six months I choose to do another half round and was successful again! In total my weight loss was 38 pounds. I feel great! My meal plans are easily adapted to the guidelines of the program. Try it! You can be a winner to improved health!
I have gone to many places for weight loss. Kelly is different. She will be by your side through it all. I finally lost the weight and was taught how to maintain. I adore this woman! ~ Jen G

Meet Dr. Austin Erickson
Chiropractor | Appel Chiropractic
In Collaboration with Appel Wellness
Dr. Austin Erickson has been practicing chiropractic for more than 17 years, but his passion for chiropractic care began with his own experience as a patient.
While in college, Austin suffered a significant back injury while working that left him barely able to walk for several days. After visiting a local chiropractor and experiencing firsthand how chiropractic care helped him recover, he knew he had found his calling.
Today, Dr. Austin brings nearly two decades of experience in chiropractic care, spinal rehabilitation, and strengthening to his patients.
Experience in Neck & Back Care
One of Dr. Austin's greatest strengths is his understanding of neck and back conditions and his ability to develop individualized treatment plans designed to improve function, mobility, and quality of life.
He has been involved in spinal rehabilitation and strengthening for more than 20 years and has utilized the Cox Flexion-Distraction Technique throughout his chiropractic career.
This gentle, specialized technique allows Dr. Austin to work with a variety of spinal conditions, including complex cases and patients who have previously undergone neck or lower-back surgery.
Dr. Austin also provides DOT physicals and works with patients seeking care following auto accidents and work-related injuries.
A Personal Approach to Chiropractic Care
Dr. Austin understands what it's like to walk into a chiropractic office in pain and looking for answers—because that's where his own journey began.
His goal is for every patient to feel comfortable, heard, and confident in the care they receive.
