Testimonials

Ecstatic

Happy cannot possibly describe how I feel about this practice, ecstatic would be a better term! Not only have I been impressed by the consummate professionalism I have encountered, but this practice also infuses warmth with the treatment of their patients! Which many doctors in the Delaware area most noticeably lack… I had been battling horrible pelvic pain as a result of an accident and pregnancy and Dr. Fairchild has made it possible for me to walk without having to endure excruciating pain. Not to mention the new office is like walking into a high-end spa! I recommend them 110%!

Very gentle and very child friendly

“My family had a great experience visiting Dr. Brenda. It is worth the two hour trip! I have been seen along with my mother and my two children to improve our wellness. Her care is very gentle and very child friendly. Dr. Brenda also provides a wealth of information for the topics I am interested in to keep my family healthy. Looking forward to our future appointments.”

Is extremely kid friendly

“Dr. Brenda has worked as my chiro for a while now and I could not be happier. I love being able to go in and tell her exactly what’s going on and she sympathizes and knows exactly what to do. I also get the full experience with her by getting diet and exercise suggestions which makes my appointment feel extremely well rounded. I can bring my son in and not feel like he doesn’t belong. It is extremely kid friendly and she even gets him in on helping her out which makes him so happy.”

So happy with this practice!

“What an amazing place to visit! I recently started going to Pea and the Pod as it was recommended to me by a friend. I was suffering from migraines for a YEAR! I have been to the office a few times for massage and an adjustment. My migraines have just about vanished! I am so happy with this practice. They also adjust children. I didn’t even think about having my children adjusted. But this practice is so welcoming I think my children would be very comfortable in the environment. I highly recommend this place for all Women and Moms especially who breastfeed!”

Dr. Brenda played a great role in our success.

“I cannot say enough about Dr. Brenda! I first met her at a County Chamber event where I learned about her specialties in chiropractic care. My husband and I had tried for several years to get pregnant. Six months after a loss we decided to see a reproductive specialist. After many tests, I ended up having to get surgery.  Months had passed and we were still not making progress. Remembering my initial meeting with Dr. Brenda, I made an appointment. I was in the care of her hands and expertise in the months my husband was deployed.

To our surprise, our beautiful baby was conceived the day my husband returned home! I truly believe that Dr. Brenda played a great role in our success. She is well-educated, sensitive, gentle and understanding.

I also turned to Dr. Brenda while I was pregnant to relieve shoulder and pelvic pain.  She made me good as new!

I highly recommend Dr. Brenda to any woman struggling with fertility or who are pregnant and experiencing the aches and pains of your body changing and adjusting (growing).”

Adjustments for infertility struggles

“I sought chiropractic treatment from Dr. Fairchild after reading studies regarding adjustments helping with the success of IUI procedures and infertility struggles. My husband and I had tried conceiving for more than a year, and I wanted to take advantage of any benefit chiropractic adjustments could offer. Dr. Fairchild was extremely knowledgeable on the topic and made me feel at ease immediately – much needed during such a stressful time! I, my husband, and our new baby are so happy to have found Pea and the Pod Chiropractic!”

I recommend the practice to everyone I talk to

“I can’t begin to explain how fortunate my family is to have found Dr. Brenda and her practice. My children have suffered from allergies, asthma, ear infections and various digestive issues and were on a multitude of medication.  If that wasn’t enough our youngest son was diagnosed with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. I was in search of understanding the bigger picture and any underlying causes instead of continuing to treat the symptoms.

A good friend recommended the practice and after meeting with Dr. Brenda I was so relieved and felt like I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. She took the time to fully understand our concerns and history and I am ecstatic to say that both of my children are no longer taking any medication and have been symptom free for several months.  I am truly amazed and thankful that I found such a caring, thorough resource for my family. I recommend the practice to everyone I talk to and I am thankful to Dr. Brenda and Kristyn for all of their help.”

A very warm and inviting practice

“I have been to a few other practices in the area, and left because I felt like I was just a number, quickly adjusted and shoved out the door. Dr. Brenda and her staff don’t make you feel like that at all! A very warm and inviting practice that makes you feel extremely cared for. I am back to believing in Chiropractic care!”

After 2 sessions my baby flipped

“Dr. Brenda and her staff is absolutely wonderful! I started therapy at 30 weeks pregnant because my baby was breech. After 2 sessions my baby flipped and now at 36 weeks he is still head down thank goodness! I always bring my 22 moth old and Dr. Brenda is so great at having entertaining toys in the waiting area and therapy rooms. Its great to be able to have him at my side during therapy and not having to worry about finding a sitter. Dr. Brenda does a great job at working around him while he plays and making him feel welcome. I am continuing therapy with Dr. Brenda throughout the rest of my pregnancy because I learned that this therapy can sometimes make for an easier labor and delivery. Thanks so much Dr. Brenda!!”

Ready to help in any and every way!

Way beyond impressed. Words can’t even describe! Very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and ready to help in any and every way! I would have been out of work (not getting paid) due to pain if not for her! She definitely has my highest recommendation!!!!

A big difference in the lives of my two little ones

“I just wanted to give a big thank you to Dr. Brenda and Kristyn at Pea and the Pod Chiropractic.  You have made such a big difference in the lives of my two little ones.  Both of them having silent reflux had been miserable.  Since they have been seeing Dr. Brenda, the improvement has been incredibly dramatic.  They are no longer on any medication and neither of them had a single sign of reflux.  She’s been great for the whole family. I started seeing Dr. Brenda when I was pregnant to get everything aligned for labor and she has been wonderful. Kristyn is fantastic with the kids too.  Thank you so much for what you have done for us!”

Incredibly patient with our son who has special needs

“I can’t say enough about how much we love Pea and the Pod Chiropractic!  From start to finish, each visit is an enjoyable experience that the kids eagerly anticipate.  Kristyn in the front desk is so friendly that my kids love to chat with her while they wait their turn.   Dr. Brenda is incredibly patient with our son who has special needs.  She takes the time to get to know our children and understand all of what is going on.  She listens and will go above and beyond to help us find the answers.  She has followed up with phone calls and emails.  She is an excellent source of information regarding diet and supplements.  High blood pressure, chronic ear infections, and acid reflux are problems we have overcome with the education, support and care given by Dr. Brenda and Pea and the Pod.  We can truly see the difference chiropractic care has made in the health of our whole family!”

A worrisome problem into a thing of the past

“We can’t thank you enough for treating Ian’s torticollis. It’s a disconcerting thing to face when your infant has any issue, but your reassurance and capable touch has made this far easier to manage. His physical therapist is amazed by Ian’s transformation – from a 20% tilt to almost midline in only 4 weeks! – and credits the combination of PT with his chiropractic adjustments. She is going to recommend this duo of care to future torticollis patients. I also have to thank you and Kristyn for making my 3-year-old so welcome. He loves coming to see you for his little brother’s “head turns” and always has fun with the books and toys in your office. Thank you again! Your care has turned a worrisome problem into a thing of the past.”

After two visits my pain had improved tremendously

“At 18 weeks pregnant, I began experiencing sciatic nerve pain. Having previously experienced this in my last pregnancy, I thought I would just have to tough it out until delivery. After several weeks of pain, I mentioned it to my midwife and she recommended seeing a Webster Certified chiropractor. My search for a provider led me to Dr. Brenda. I had my first visit with her when I was 30 weeks pregnant. After two visits my pain had improved tremendously and was essentially gone. I continued seeing her to make sure my alignment was maintained and the baby (previously breech) stayed in a good position. At 36 weeks though, he had other ideas and turned frank breech again. I saw Dr. Brenda that night and throughout the weekend and was able to avoid an external version scheduled for the following Tuesday (4 days after finding out he was breech again). The baby stayed Vertex from that point forward and all is well. Thank you Dr. Brenda for taking such good care of our new baby boy and me.”

Warm and friendly

“Although I had been skeptical of chiropractors, the care I received at Pea and the Pod was excellent and the relief of my lower back pain was swift. Dr. Brenda and the staff are warm and friendly and I felt that I was in good hands.”

Nicest, most caring doctor you will ever meet

“I have been coming to Pea and the Pod for a couple of months now, and have felt a tremendous improvement in my back pain. The office staff is wonderful, and Dr. Brenda is one of the nicest, most caring doctors you will ever meet. She will go out of her way and take the time needed to find out exactly what is wrong with you and plan to make you better! I highly encourage anyone who is in pain to come to Pea and the Pod.”

You are part of the family

“Dr. Brenda and the staff at Pea and the Pod are amazing.  They make you feel comfortable like you are part of the family.  They are great with my infant and preschooler.  The only doctor my son enjoys going to see every month.  I feel great when I leave and my kid’s colds have been minor and not as long lasting thanks to their regular chiropractic wellness care.  A practice I tell anyone the will listen about.”

The best chiropractor I have ever been to

“My family has known Dr. Brenda for almost 2 years now. […] I came in often those last few months before I had Christina and each time we were greeted with a smile and treated like friends or family. Christina has been a patient of Dr. Brenda since the day after she was born. She is absolutely the best chiropractor I have ever been to! I recommend her to everyone I know, and sometimes even people I don’t know! My kids all love Dr. Brenda and are very comfortable with her. She explains everything and answers all their questions no matter how silly they may be. She makes sure that they are comfortable and happy like they were her own children.

Chiropractic care can help with preventing illnesses, infertility, and pregnancy

“All I can say is Dr. Brenda has seen me through some of the biggest events in my life.  When I first came to Dr. Brenda in October, 2011 I was having pain in my entire back from working in retail.  On my first visit we discussed other concerns and I had mentioned that I was getting ready to start our 2nd  IVF treatment.  She started to explain how chiropractic care can help with preventing illnesses, infertility, pregnancy, and child birth.  It was interesting that she noticed my pelvis was rotating which could present problems during pregnancy and delivery then we discussed how the different back muscles and abdominal muscles work together to support you during pregnancy and how it helps increase blood flow to the uterus. I had never heard that chiropractic care could help with infertility or that you could receive treatments during pregnancy.  Dr. Brenda even discussed the benefits of using acupuncture along with the chiropractic treatments to help with the stress of IVF and also to also help with blood flow to support a pregnancy.”

 

An outstanding healer

“I visited Dr. Fairchild for constant pain in my lower back and within just a few visits was feeling significantly better! Her gentle nature, thorough attention, and ability to listen to her patients about their pain and injuries is what makes her an outstanding healer! I have and will continue to recommend her services to anyone who is truly seeking relief from spinal pain and discomfort!”

Successfully flipped my stubborn baby

“A successful all natural water birth of a healthy little boy at The Birth Center was my ultimate goal during my pregnancy in December. At 37 weeks I was told my baby was breech and unless I figured out a way to get him to flip into position, I would not be able to deliver there. My midwife had suggested for me to seek assistance from a chiropractor.  After searching around online, I stumbled upon Dr. Brenda Fairchild, who to my surprise specialized in exactly what I was working for! At the end of my first appointment with Dr. Brenda, I knew I made the right choice. After visiting with her I knew that she genuinely cared about me and my baby.  She gave me her personal contact information so I could contact her anytime the day or night.  After three appointments with Dr. Brenda in my 37th week, she had successfully flipped my stubborn baby into the head down position. I continued to see her throughout my 40th week just to make sure he stayed down, which he did.  My delivery was completely different[from first] and I contribute that to the sessions I had with Dr. Brenda. My labor was a breeze!! My contractions were manageable. I pushed for about two contractions until little Bryson was born. Honestly it was painless! I didn’t have any burning or tearing when I delivered him.  I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Brenda!”

Very happy

“I am very happy with the personal and caring atmosphere. Treatment is going well and I am feeling better with each visit. I would highly recommend your office to others!”

I feel fantastic!

“I was having horrible lower back pain so a friend referred me to Dr. Brenda. Within a few visits I was able to get through the day with almost no pain and after a month, I feel fantastic! Dr. Brenda is always cheerful and I look forward to my appointments.”

I was not able to stand or walk for long periods of time

“I came to see Dr. Fairchild with severe back pain and sciatic pain. At 33 weeks pregnant I was not able to stand or walk for long periods of time. A basic grocery shopping run would cause me to rest all day. At 39 weeks I feel great. No more sciatic pain. My back feels strong. I’m able to walk for miles and still function with daily activities. Thank you so much. I feel so much better. Keep up the good work.”

Dr. Brenda’s care was exceptional

“Dr. Brenda Fairchild started seeing me while I was 9 months pregnant to help my baby turn from the breech position. Although her position was due to circumstances out of my control, Dr. Brenda’s care was exceptional. She saw me multiple times a week and gave me the best care. In the long run, I felt much better my last month of pregnancy, and I wish I went my whole pregnancy. Thanks so much!”

Dr. Brenda was recommended to me by my midwife

“Dr. Brenda was recommended to me by my midwife to try to get my baby in an optimal birth position. It worked wonders, my first two babies were born posterior and this one was in perfect position! My visits were always positive and comfortable. Dr. Brenda really listens and has a very gentle way when doing your adjustments. I continue to go in monthly, and I take my children as well. Just getting to lay on your stomach while pregnant makes it worth the trip. 🙂 “

I would highly recommend Dr. Brenda to anyone going through IVF or a pregnancy

“Once I became pregnant in November, 2011 we started to focus on keeping my pelvis from rotating and keeping my back aligned and strong during my pregnancy.  Dr. Brenda recommended exercises I could do during the different trimesters to keep my back and abdominals strong for support but also to keep everything stretched for delivery.  I am very grateful to her for all the care and support she has given me.  I have had none of the horrible back pain my friends of had during their pregnancies and I still feel strong and flexible. I also noticed that I hadn’t had any colds or headaches since I have been under her care which is a blessing when you are pregnant. I look forward to seeing her just to keep everything in shape before delivery.  I would highly recommend Dr. Brenda to anyone going through IVF or a pregnancy.  She truly wants to help and educate you about using chiropractic care to keep you healthy before, during, and after pregnancy. Thanks Dr. Brenda”

Woke up this morning and the pain is so dull I hardly notice it!

Dr. Brenda is AMAZING!! I am a mother of three who struggles with endometriosis pain and most recently a horribly uncomfortable sciatic nerve. For the past two months I have been so uncomfortable no matter what I do I have been unable to get relief nor have I been able to sleep. Yesterday I had an appointment with Dr. Brenda and left there feeling 50% better, woke up this morning and the pain is so dull I hardly notice it!! I am forever THANKFUL to her for helping me and am excited to continue visits confident she will be able to help with the endometriosis as well. Thank You Dr. Brenda from me, my Husband & our kiddos lol..I have been a nice Mama today!!!

They take time to listen and work with me

I love this practice!! It is refreshing to have a medical professional actually take time to listen and work with me to find the source of medical issues I’ve struggled with for years. Thanks, Dr. Brenda, and everyone in your office, for being so great at what you do – helping people live healthy lives!!

Dr. Brenda is fantastic with kids and parents alike.

Dr. Brenda helped our 20 month old daughter with an issue we had been struggling with since birth. We can’t thank her enough for the time and care she has given us all!

Dr. Brenda had my extremely hyperactive son who is on the spectrum puddy in her hands.

I’ve been to many chiropractors in my life. None of them spent as much time with me as Dr. Brenda did nor did they do the necessary muscle work I needed. She’s kind and patient and also had my extremely hyperactive son who is on the spectrum puddy in her hands. I consider this quite a feat. I can’t wait to continue going.

Megan O.

My breach baby turned at 40 weeks!

I went to her office because of a breach baby at 36-37 weeks and she took the time we needed to help my baby get in to the correct position. She explained everything she was doing and made me feel confident in the treatment and after visits twice a week my baby turned at 40 weeks! She did an amazing job.

Jennifer R.

Dr. Brenda is a miracle worker!

Love Dr. Brenda!! She’s a miracle worker and has helped my infant son immensely! I recommend her to everyone.

Darci O.

Worked miracles on me while pregnant and postpartum

Dr. Brenda is the best of the best! She truly cares about each one of her patients, gives out her cell number for questions and even mails cards when special things happen in your life. She worked miracles on me while pregnant and postpartum and has worked with my infant as well and healed her torticollis. She is gentle, thoughtful and is a true healer. I can’t recommend her enough!!

Kiersten S.

Dr. Brenda truly cares about her clients.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Brenda. She’s amazing, and truly cares about her clients. I went to her when I was pregnant, and now take my oldest child there for her chiropractic needs. I recommend her to all of my friends.

Traci W.

Dr. Brenda is a must for expecting mothers.

She is extremely informative with everything pregnancy. I drive about an hour to see her, and she is well worth it. Visiting Pea and the Pod Chiropractic is going to remain a regular part of my health regimen.

Dr. Brenda contributed to positively to my birth experience.

I was seeing Dr. Brenda once a week this summer and she was helping me prepare for the birth of baby #2. I was hoping to avoid an induction or a c-section. Well everything turned out great! I woke to spontaneous labor pains around midnight on August 19th. I was at the hospital by 2:30 a.m. and had the baby vaginally by 5:10 a.m. It was a much more satisfying and relatively easy delivery compared to my first! I pushed for maybe 30 minutes and he was out! I am so much happier now postpartum and am doing well physically. Thanks so much for helping to align me, get me mentally prepared, and using that clary sage oil on me! I definitely feel that seeing Dr. Brenda contributed to positively to my birth experience.

I wish I would’ve known about this practice sooner!

I’ve been going to Pea and a Pod now for almost two months and I LOVE it! In my first pregnancy, I went to just a plain old chiropractor that didn’t specialize in pregnancy, and had a so and so experience. I wish I would’ve known about this practice sooner! Dr. Brenda Fairchild is an absolutely amazing and sweet woman! She’s helped eliminate the biggest source of pain I had this pregnancy, and my last. And she truly cares, and has a wealth of information to help you. It’s exactly the type of care I’ve been searching for!

Dr. Brenda got me in this morning at 7am.

I pulled my lower back out Weds night. All day yesterday I was in some serious pain. I prayed and relaxed all day, Thursday. I was so scared because I had a wedding today, and I knew I couldn’t be immobile! My lovely chiropractor, Dr. Brenda got me in this morning at 7am. She fixed me right up and I felt great today! So thankful for her and her practice! She comes highly recommended by me! So so thankful.

I’m pregnant!

Well done doc. I’m pregnant! 😁

Thank you so much for helping me go into labor!

Thank you so much for helping me go into labor. I got the natural vbac I had been praying for. We were only at the hospital for 20 minutes and I had him. 🙂

From the time my contractions picked up in intensity and were regular, it was 4 hours of labor, 3 pushes, and he was out. 🙂 It was very empowering and he was my biggest baby!

My body feels amazing and my energy is up!

Today I had my 1st visit to Pea and the Pod Chiropractic office! Dr. Brenda was very gentle with my body and took time to answer all of my questions and care for my needs!! My body feels amazing and my energy is up! I can’t wait to visit her office again for another prenatal adjustment!

Thank you Dr. Brenda
