Dr. Brown’s practice specializes in total body health and well-being, starting with the proper function of all joints in the body, especially the dozens of joints in the spinal column. Malfunctions in these joints can alter nervous system signals, distorting vital communication between the brain and the rest of the body. Dr. Brown says, “Seeing the magical transformations in people’s health when these interferences are removed keeps me inspired and uplifted every day.”
