The Joint Chiropractic - Buckhead

Growing up in Michigan, I played many different sports. I excelled at ice hockey, being scouted by four NHL teams. After high school, I went on to attend The University of Michigan. I had the privilege to play for The University of Michigan's men's ice hockey team. Upon graduation, I was able to pursue a three year professional ice hockey career. After my retirement, I chose to attend Life University.

I became interested in chiropractic, just after high school. I suffered a hockey injury to my lower back in the ending of the regular season. During the playoffs, I had to have some else tie my skates because I could not do it on my own. After the season ended, my girlfriend asked me if I wanted to go see her uncle, who was a chiropractor. After multiple visits, my back pain went away! I knew that this was the field I wanted to pursue.

I feel that The Joint is superior to most practices. It takes a "whole health" approach, and promotes preventative care, with very thorough and competent doctors. Most people know to visit a chiropractor when they are hurting. The Joint is a place that keeps you from hurting.
