What Is Chiropractic?
Chiropractors are primary care doctors who use their hands to safely and specifically adjust joints in the spine and other parts of the body. Chiropractic adjustments reduce pain, restore proper nerve function, and improve mobility. In addition to adjustments, chiropractors may also provide soft tissue therapies, lifestyle recommendations, fitness coaching and nutritional advice.
“Rugby for me was the biggest support system: through school, personal things, professional goals, rugby helped in every aspect of my life and I felt I had someone standing in my corner through all of this.”
“Rugby was also a great outlet from school, and it allowed me to travel all over the Midwest to see places and have experiences I never would have had if I was not part of the Rugby Club.”
“Playing rugby for Palmer was hands-down the best decision I ever made. It has helped shaped me into the person, chiropractor, and leader I am today.”
