Dr. Kati Kerperien, D.C. grew up in East Saint Louis, IL before attending Western Illinois University to earn her Bachelors in Medical Science. She then went on to attend National University of Health Sciences to pursue her Chiropractic Degree, and while she was at it, she was certified in acupuncture. Dr. Kati graduated in December 2016, had a baby in April, and started working at The Joint in September. She feels like life is falling into place and can now start spreading the joy of healing to her patients.
Since Dr. Kati has suffered with migraines most of her life and was miserable until she found chiropractic, she loves when headache patients walk through the door. She empathizes with them and knows she can be their saving grace. Her mission is to take any ailment, great or small, and help her patients find relief through chiropractic care. She’s been adjusting her enormous family, ages 2 weeks to 70 years, and has found great joy in adjusting babies and toddlers. Although they typically have no pain, she knows she’s helping them be the best them, physically and mentally. If your baby has colic or frequent ear infections, she can help with that!
One of the many things Dr. Kati loves about The Joint is the affordable and hassle free care the patients receive. They can focus on their healing, as opposed to their financial situation. When she isn’t working she’s spending time with her partner, Brian, her son, Wyatt, and her dog, Killian. And when she finds a ping pong table, it’s hard to pull her away.
