Alecia wanted to attend a chiropractic college where she could explore the chiropractic profession from all elements, but it was the reputation of Palmer College that interested her the most.
She grew up doing gymnastics, track and field, and dance and while in grade school she participated in all the sports her schools would allow, which included basketball, soccer and volleyball. In her late 20s she began to bobsled. She performed as a brakeman for 5 years with Bobsleigh CANADA Skeleton. In 2018 she was an Olympic hopeful.

During his time at Palmer Florida, Dr. Santiago started training athletes of all ages. Now, he’s built a bustling sports chiropractic practice, and he loves every minute of it. One of his proudest moments was helping an 11-year-old basketball player rank top 15 in the nation!

And her education won’t stop when she graduates. She already has her sights set on earning a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician certification, a Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Board of Sports Physicians certification, as well as an acupuncture program.
“I’m excited to continue working with athletes on the sidelines and in the clinics, and Palmer has taught me how to help athletes compete at their best.”

Tough or not, the feeling of disappointment and grief was inevitable last summer when the Games of the XXXII Olympiad were postponed due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic. The decision meant that professional athletes would need to spend another year focusing on their performance and health, and pushing their bodies and minds for longer periods of time in order to realize their dream of participating in an Olympic Games event.
