“ B.E.S.T. therapy is an extremely valuable adjunctive treatment for patients suffering from both chronic malignant and non-malignant pain. As a long-time pain management practitioner – 21 years, I find that the use of complementary therapies is essential in the management of these patients. As a recipient of this particular therapy, I find that it has the advantage of being non-forceful and non-invasive. By patient report and personal experience with the technique, I also find that B.E.S.T gives the patient an immediate feeling that this therapy works well in the context of their overall pain management regimen.” Jessica A.

“From a medical student's perspective, I believe that one future frontier for medicine lies in examining the connection between human energy fields and health. Physicians continue to learn more about how to harness the power of the mind-body connection to bring physical, mental, and emotional healing to their patients. Using the B.E.S.T. chiropractic technique, Dr. Sones brings cutting-edge treatments to his patients. I am amazed how his treatments have brought enhanced health to me.” - Patty Bilhartz

“In 1999, I found a B.E.S.T. practitioner, Dr. Hoyle, in Peoria, Illinois. It was the best find of my life. Nothing has been more influential in how I live my life and care for my family than the amount of knowledge I have gained from the doctors that practice this type of technique. I had spent years with a ‘traditional’ chiropractor being treated for a curvature of the spine. I went day in and day out, going for adjustments and pain management, with no end in sight.
“ A few years earlier, a neurologist had suspected MS. Another doctor said fibromyalgia. In my heart I knew neither of these horrible diseases could be true. They were professionals trained to give me some kind of explanation, and I just knew deep down their diagnosis were just opinions at best.
“ Then one day I came across a sign in front of an office building that said ‘Family Wellness Center – a Holistic Alternative.’ It simmered in my mind for a few months. Finally, after a very painful adjustment from my chiropractor, I called for an appointment. That’s the day my life changed for the better – forever! From the very first session, there were such dramatic improvements in my overall health. My husband and I couldn’t believe it!
“ As I explained to my new chiropractor all the pain I had been through, and what the other doctors had said, she just sat and listened like no doctor has ever listened before. She just KNEW! Finally she said to me, “I can help, but you’ve got some work to do too.” She gave me my first treatment, and in an instant, pain that I had known for years just dissipated. I went home and cried because there was no more pain in my legs, my arms, and my head! I just couldn’t understand. I wanted more! Over the course of the next few years, my new chiropractor and I worked together to transform myself into a healthy, happy, balanced woman. There was no more pain, no more medicine, and no more unanswered questions. I now have such an awareness of what is really going on and what really affects me and my family. I have control of my health and it feels great!
“ Since finding B.E.S.T., I feel so strongly about it that when my husband came to me and said let’s relocate Houston, I told him I’d move anywhere there is a B.E.S.T. doctor. And I meant it! There was no way I was going to let my family get away from the most important thing that ever happened to us. Through the Morter Web site, www.morter.com, I found Dr. Sones in the northern suburbs of Houston. So here we are!
“ My husband and I have the most beautiful, healthy little girl I have ever seen. She is now 2 and a half and has never had an ear infection. She’s never had anything worse than a runny nose! I was balanced before conceiving her, balanced throughout my pregnancy and after delivery. My little bundle of joy was only two days old when she received her first treatment! There is no better testimonial I can come up with than a HEALTHY CHILD! Mine is proof. No problems at all. We are a healthy, strong family.
“ Now we use Dr. Robert Sones for our most important health issue, PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE. Once you learn about what Dr. Sones can do for you and your family’s health, the rest is up to you to maintain it. And Dr. Sones, is the perfect guide to help you on your way to health and happiness. - Kim, Adrian and Alicia Graham

“Prior to being introduced and becoming a patient of Dr. Robert Sones, my health was at a complete downfall and seemed to be getting worse with each passing day. I remember looking at my mother and telling her, “I don’t want to do this anymore.” I was in a terrible state, and something had to be done. After visiting Dr. John Matthias, he referred us to Dr. Sones.
“Dr. Matthias had his office assistant schedule an appointment for me. It was the very same day, and just a few hours away. I was thrilled not to have to wait weeks or even months before getting in for an appointment. My mother and I drove to his office in The Woodlands, hopeful that he could help me. It was a very pleasant environment and didn’t feel much like a doctor’s office.
“I have to say that Dr. Sones gave us a lot of information to take in. We were a bit confused and overwhelmed at first, but after several visits, we began to understand everything a lot better. I remember the first time he adjusted me. I felt very relaxed and my stomach was a lot calmer than usual. I just felt so much better overall. We ended up going twice a week for several weeks to get me in balance. A couple months passed, and I began to feel much better. I still have my bad days but mostly they are good. Dr. Sones has helped me very much and I enjoy seeing him once every two weeks now. He’s a great doctor and I think he will be helping a lot more people in the future.” Lauren Melissari

“After several car accidents, my entire back was in very bad shape, especially my neck and low back. I have used chiropractors for over 25 years and gotten relief but the pain always came back. I also worked with an alternative M.D. who helped, and also had massage therapy. They all helped to temporarily diminish the pain, but I still couldn’t turn my head to the left without considerable pain. Low back pain kept me from doing usual household chores for more than a couple hours at a time. Since seeing Dr. Sones and receiving BEST treatments, my neck pain is gone and my low back and leg pain is much improved. I recently was able to clean house all day, something I haven’t been able to do in over five years.” Lois Mathews

“Still in pain after two major back surgeries, I went to Dr. Sones for help. I have had BEST treatments before and knew that they were gentle. I soon had much less pain and more flexibility. Treatments not only helped my back, but my neck pain and shoulder stiffness also improved. Dr. Sones taught me how emotional stress can contribute to back and neck pain and prevent healing. He also taught me how to think in ways that helped me get better faster. I like the fact that BEST treatments treat the whole person. I would recommend BEST treatments for anyone, like me, who has had back surgery and is still in pain.” Bob Mullenix

“I have spent a lot of time looking for "something" to help my chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. I tried many things. Some helped a little for a while but nothing made a big difference. Fortunately, I was referred to Dr. Sones, who politely listened to me and then explained the B.E.S.T. concepts, which were quite different to any previous treatment. Dr. Sones worked on balancing the energy in my body and helped me change the way I deal with stress. My fibromyalgia was greatly relieved right away and my chronic fatigue has improved significantly.

“ I have sent friends and family to see Dr. Sones for help. It doesn't matter what their illness is; the same principles apply: balance the energy in the body and they improve. Meeting Dr. Sones has changed my life.” Barbara Schlattmann


“I want to let you know how much your program has helped me and how impressed I am with it. As you know, I have had PSA test reporting scores as high as 21. I have had three biopsies, each finding no cancer. Since I have been working with you, my PSA results have all been under the magic 4.0. What is truly impressive is that you have been able to predict to within a 10th of a point or two what the test results will be. While I sure don’t know how you do it, my overall health and well being have improved greatly since I started receiving B.E.S.T. therapy. Thank you for what you do.” Carl E. King
