Lawrence, KS 66047
I treat patients of all ages from babies to elderly. I have been trained in an adjustment style that is very effective for headache patients called the Blair Technique. In fact, I fell down a flight of stairs at age 18, and it was this adjustment that helped me out of my daily headaches...but very few chiropractors in the nation are trained in and use it. It changed my world, so that is why I wanted to learn all about it, and now, as a doctor I get to watch my own patients get well just like I did!
