It was a beautiful spring day in March, when Michael, a strong 22-year old, took his “new” used BMW motorcycle out for a spin on the highway. Within a short time he lost control. and several rolls later, he laid in tremendous pain on the road. Thankfully, a doctor saw what happened and came to his rescue. She could not believe he was still alive! He was rushed to the hospital, and miraculously, no bones were broken, but he was otherwise a mess. Six months later, a girlfriend suggested he go to a Chiropractor. After the first session, he felt so good! After more sessions, he was hooked.This is something he wanted to learn how to do to help others, like it had helped him. He left his job as a teacher, and enrolled in Chiropractic School, graduating from one of the top Chiropractic Schools in the U.S. – Palmer College of Chiropractic.
Since that day, Michael has never looked back, his passion for Chiropractic has not waned, nor his compassion lessened. He knows what it feels like to be in big time pain, and how conventional medicine can sometimes fall short. Having this lived experience changes everything.
Besides being masterful in Chiropractic and PEMF, Michael lives happily with his wife Trude, and loves to take his sweet doggie Gracie out for long daily walks.
We are dedicated to making your experience more than a visit – we hope to foster a transformative journey towards holistic wellbeing.
