Why I became a chiropractor

It is a lesser invasive alternative treatment for pain, decreasing use of NSAIDS or other medicines that may damage the body. I am an advocate for natural healing and allowing a person’s body to heal on its own once I remove the joint interference. Going as a teenager allowed me to see that there are better ways of becomes pain free, more mobile and allow muscles to function properly when used.

What makes me different

I tend to work well with athletes, being one myself. Since I’ve gone through most of these issues within the body myself, it becomes easier to explain to patients with the knowledge that I have. I really try to explain things to them so that they can apply the knowledge and understand why they feel the way they do.

What an adjustment feels like

An adjustment is essentially moving a joint or joints that are “stuck,” immobile or perhaps moving too freely. When this happens, they start affecting the body in negative ways, such as causing pain, immobility, muscles tightness or organ dysfunction. An adjustment helps align the spine, improving these conditions.

Outside the office

I am a big family person from the UP of Michigan. Any chance to see my family and I am there. This is why I moved from chiropractic college in MN to WI, because this is where my family is. I enjoy any outdoor activities, especially kayaking or any water related activities. I also enjoy weightlifting at the WAC and enjoy spending time with my 3 cats.

Focus areas

Where I focus

Every doctor at Chiropractic Company is trained to care for the full range of spinal and musculoskeletal conditions. What differs between us is the additional training we’ve done and the patients we’ve spent the most time with.

Seniors (65+)

Lower back/sciatic pain in ages 65+ patients

Lower back/sciatic pain in ages 65+ patients. Shoulder pain from lack of activity. Sports injuries from too much activity.

Desk & office workers

Upper back and neck pain and stiffness from sitting daily, usually postural. Carpal tunnel from desk patients constantly using mouse at their computer.

Athletes

Sports injuries from athletes continued activity from recreational sports or competitive sports. Shoulder and knee pain from patients who weight lift on a daily basis.

Technique

How I work

The most common patients seen at Franklin are retiree patients and elderly patients.

Usually first

Soft tissue

To relax muscles and allow their pain to feel different from when they walked in.

Then

Motion palpation

To examine on how joint is moving and what may be limiting it.

Also

Diversified

Using a multiple adjusting approach to appropriately move a joint that is incapable.

Structural

Gonstead

A detailed analytical approach that identifies one specific segment rather than adjusting a region. Usually paired with x-ray and palpation findings.

Low force

Thompson drop-table

A section of the table drops a short distance as the adjustment is delivered, so less manual force is needed to move the joint.

Low force

Activator / instrument

A small handheld instrument delivers a controlled, low-force impulse to a specific spot. No twisting, no popping sound.

Beyond the spine

Extremity adjusting

Adjusting joints outside the spine — shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, ankles and feet. Often what a spine-only approach misses.

Assessment

X-ray analysis

On-site imaging when it will change the plan. Used to rule things out as much as to confirm them.

Assessment

Gait analysis

Watching how you walk. Foot, knee, hip and back complaints frequently trace back to something happening at heel strike.

Soft tissue

Active Release Technique

Pressure held on a muscle while it is taken through its range, to free adhesions that have built up between tissue layers.

Also uses Myofascial release, Trigger point therapy, Electrical stimulation, Corrective exercise and PNF stretching.

Two things worth knowing

You decide what I do

If neck adjustments make you uncomfortable manually, we can always use an activator technique that is less invasive and more conservative.

When I’ll send you somewhere else

If X-rays show something that is out of the chiropractic scope, such as abdominal aortas, potential cases of bone tumor/cancer, or organ related disorders, I would refer either to primary doctor, orthopedic or oncology. Neurological exams may also show potential spinal deficits which may then be referred to neurology.

For most people, no. You may hear or feel a pop, which is gas releasing from the joint rather than bones cracking. Some people feel mild soreness afterward, similar to after a workout, usually for a day or less.
