Why Did Dr. Kandy Choose Chiropractic?

I began having headaches my Senior year of High School. I progressed to the point where I had headaches everyday and about every 3rd day I would vomit and get a tiny bit of relief and then they would start over again. I never received any relief from Medical Doctors. A good friend of mine introduced me to Chiropractic. At my first visit they took x-rays that revealed the curve of my neck was curving the opposite way it should be. They asked me if I had ever been in an accident or taken a bad fall. I remembered that when I was a junior in high school I was with a friend and we were rear ended, but we never went to the hospital or doctor for the injuries. I received my first chiropractic adjustment and boy did my neck pop, but I actually had relief from a headache for over a week and then it started to return. I returned to the Chiropractor and they were able to treat my cause of my headaches. To this day, headaches are my favorite thing to treat in practice.

What do you enjoy the most about being a Chiropractor?

I love the challenge of being a Chiropractor. I love that every patient that comes in my door has a unique reason for coming. Some people come to me as a last resort to try and figure out why they are in pain. I love being able to take my time to figure out the cause of their pain or discomfort. At my office, my patients become just like family.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

I love spending time with my family and friends. We enjoy traveling, sitting by the campfire, going out to various restaurants, and listening to many genres of bands together. I love watching my daughter play volleyball and softball. I am a sports fanatic. There really is not any sport I don’t like. The St Louis Cardinals are my favorite team to watch.
