Meet the Doctors
Dr. Mike Kochanski (DC, FIAMA, CCSP)
“I just wish I had known then what I know now!”
Have you ever thought that? Wouldn’t you like to share that knowledge with someone you love?
I grew up in a suburb of Milwaukee and got my bachelor degree from the University of Wisconsin. In college, I began having difficulty breathing and chest tightness. One morning, I woke up with what felt like a 100-pound brick on my chest. I thought, “I am way too young to be having a heart attack!”. Shortly after, on my 20th birthday, I could hardly blow out the candles on my cake. My doctor diagnosed me with asthma and gave me a prescription for an inhaler. But I did not want to rely on drugs that never worked that well anyway.
Dr. Dana Celar (DC, CACCP)
I grew up in Niagara Falls, Canada. In high school I was a pitcher on the softball team when I began having pain in my right pitching shoulder. Pain medication would just upset my stomach, and did not provide much relief anyway. Muscle relaxers just made me drowsy all day, which I didn’t like either.
A friend of mine recommended that I see a chiropractor. I was surprised, since I thought “chiropractors only treat low back pain”. I thought I would give it a try because I was desperate for relief so that I could continue to pitch. After a few visits, my shoulder pain began to resolve, and I was able to pitch without pain, or any medications. I was so impressed with the results, that I decided to become a chiropractor as well!
