As a teen, Dr. Santangelo experienced the positive results from Chiropractic adjustments first hand. What started as care for a lower back injury developed into lifetime wellness care and improved health and functionality. Besides being more balanced for sports and activities, the asthma that had plagued him every winter ceased to exist. Having a mechanical background, the decision to become a chiropractor and work on the mechanics of the skeleton just seemed natural to him.
