After years of playing sports, numerous falls and injuries had taken their toll. I was in my early twenties but suffered from low back pain daily. Every night when I would lay in bed, my back hurt until I finally fell asleep. I just assumed this would be something I would have to live with for the rest of my life.

By chance, my mother worked for a dermatologist that shared a professional complex with several other doctors. One was a chiropractor named Dr. Victor Fitch. My mother had met him and thought he seemed nice. She told him of my interest in healthcare. He told her I was welcome to visit his office to meet him and learn about chiropractic. Boy am I glad I listened to my mom! After watching in amazement as Dr. Fitch helped person after person with various problems, he asked if I would like to be checked. I told him I didn't really have any problems, but sure. I never even thought to mention my back pain!

That night, much to my amazement, my back didn't hurt. It almost seemed odd to me. Could years of pain really be gone? I was convinced. I knew then I wanted to be a chiropractor and help others get relief and live more enjoyable lives.

I thought so much of chiropractic, I decided to marry a fellow student at Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis. Dr. Lori and I met as I was finishing and she was practically starting chiropractic school. I moved to Birmingham to be close to family, and she joined me after graduation. Who says long-distance relationships don’t last! Today, Dr. Lori and I are proud to serve the Mountain Brook community.

My chiropractic journey began whenever I was a young child, and I would go with my Mom to her chiropractic appointments to help her with her lower back pain. She fell down a flight of stairs as a college student and suffered with low back pain for years. At the young age of six I realized that my Mom's chiropractor, Dr. Hughes, was helping her to be able to do her daily activities and to be able to stand and teach for long periods of time.

I would watch him adjust her and also explore in his office. I would find models of the spine, interactive posters that showed how nerves controlled different organs and different nerve patterns. It was very fascinating to me to see how my Mom would get better after her adjustments.

As I got older I often visited Dr. Hughes for childhood accidents....flipping over a bike, trampoline mishaps, sports injuries, headaches. I entered the University of Kentucky knowing that I was going to major in Biology and then go to Chiropractic college to become a Chiropractor. I wanted to be able to help people feel better by getting to the source of their pain and not by chasing symptoms and covering it up with medicine. I attended Logan College of Chiropractic and graduated in April 2003. I moved to Birmingham, and joined Dr. Brad at Hassig Family Chiropractic in Mountain Brook.

I love being a chiropractor and helping people to be able to do the things that pain restricts them from doing. To help a new mom be able to look down at her baby while they are nursing or having a bottle, to helping a dad be able to pick up and play with his young children, to the grandparent that wants to be able to do fun things with their grandchildren and not have pain.....and so many more examples of how the life of the patient changes and improves by having better function of their spine and body. It brings me joy to see a patient able to walk out of our office feeling good and knowing how that adjustment is helping them to LIVE their life!

"A family Affair"

In 2007 our amazing daughter Lauren was born. What a blessing she was, and how incredibly fortunate did we feel to be able to start adjusting her soon after her birth. Birth can be very stressful on an infant’s spine, and we were glad we had very gentle ways to remove that stress from her tiny spine. When our twin boys were born in 2012, we felt full in more ways than one.

All of our children get adjusted regularly and are rarely sick. We also all love to spend as much time together as possible, including exercising, reading, and enjoying time outdoors.
