My father was a strong influence in my life. I watched him help people and I decided to use this method to help others as well. It was really interesting growing up in a family with a father as a chiropractor. If I had a headache, neck pain, or back pain, he would just fix it for me. I thought all fathers had this gift until I became older and realized that my dad had special talents. Helping people with your hands is extremely gratifying. Plus, most of my patients feel better when they leave the office. It is one of the few healthcare disciplines where you can start feeling better the first day.
