Dr. Emily Paszkiewicz joined The Joint Chiropractic network in 2017, and she splits time in Arnold and Cottleville. She has a bachelor’s degree in human biology, as well as her doctorate, from Logan University’s College of Chiropractic.
Dr. Emily, as she likes to be be called -- and her patients thank her for it -- loves being part of the chiropractic field. “The thing I like best is being able to help people get out of pain and function better holistically,” she says. “The other thing is being able to help the whole family, from babies to kids to parents to grandparents.”
It’s not surprising that Dr. Emily likes being able to impact the entire spectrum of family, because it’s with her family that she enjoys spending her downtime. She has lived most of her life in the St. Louis area.
“I knew chiropractic was my calling when I learned what chiropractic can do to help babies and kids with all different kinds of issues that they may suffer from,” Dr. Emily says. “I love the number of families that come into the Arnold location.”
In Case You Didn’t Know
When it comes to liquid refreshment, Dr. Emily says she always has coffee in her kitchen: “It’s my favorite drink besides water.”
If she could share an ideal coffee klatsch, she would love to include George Washington and Hippocrates. “I would love to meet him and talk about the history of medicine,” Dr. Emily says of Hippocrates. “It would be very interesting to hear from George Washington what it was like to come over to America, colonize, and become the first president.”
But her group would also include the father-son duo of Daniel David Palmer and B.J. Palmer; the former is the founder of chiropractic, the latter is recognized for developing chiropractic. “It would be so interesting to hear all the stories from both D.D. and B.J. about early chiropractic,” she says.
When it comes to naming the coolest thing she has ever done, Dr. Emily says it’s getting her doctorate in chiropractic. “I get to help people every single day,” she says. “That’s pretty cool."
