I was born and raised in the farming community of Volga, South Dakota.  While growing up, I participated in football, basketball, baseball and track.  My love for sports ultimately led me to a chiropractor.  After many bumps and bruises on the football field and the basketball court, I eventually hurt my back and went to a chiropractor.  It did not take me long to experience the benefits of chiropractic care.  In a matter of no time, I was back on the court or back on the football field.  However, it wasn’t until chiropractic care changed the life of someone I care deeply for that I made my career choice. 

My grandmother had excruciating low back pain for many years.  She tried various medical treatments, including cortisone shots and even back surgery.  Unfortunately, neither provided her with the long term relief that she was looking for.  I mentioned to her to try a chiropractor as they had given me such good care and results.  She began treatment, and as for me, the results were almost immediate.  Her activity level increased and her pain decreased.  It wasn’t long before grandma was back to beating the entire family in bean bag toss.  After seeing how chiropractic changed the life of one elderly lady, my grandma, and her entire family did I realize that I wanted to be able to share these same benefits with other grandmothers, children, grandchildren and even great grand children.

After starting chiropractic school, my eyes were opened to a whole new world of medical care.  You see, as chiropractic has amazing benefits for pain management, it has an even greater benefit for overall health.  Chiropractic care was never meant to treat pain, it is meant to improve proper nerve function and allow the body to heal itself.  Helping pain is just one of the many positive effects of chiropractic care.  While in school, I saw children who suffered from bedwetting stop wetting the bed, kids with ADHD receiving less disciplinary notices and higher tests scores,  people who suffered with asthma for ten plus years no longer needing their inhalers.  Chiropractic has unlimited potential because when the nervous system is able to function properly the true potential of our bodies is released.  We begin to heal ourselves.
