Why Your Nervous System is the Most Important System in Your Body
Aug 16, 2019
Originally from Florida, Dr. Kaci Madden is the oldest of three and the daughter of two Air Force Colonels. She has lived in multiple states, but her heart lies in Florida where she received her bachelor’s in Health Science and Education from the University of Florida before completing graduate school in Dallas Tx to receive her doctorate in Chiropractic from Parker University. She is one of only 1200 doctors in the world who has completed 1,000 hours of post graduate work to specialize in a form of Chiropractic care that deals with the nervous system called Upper Cervical care. This form of care helps patients with a variety of nerve-related conditions heal - most common being headaches, migraines, sleep issues, and chronic pain as the nervous system controls and coordinates everything within the body. Dr. Madden is a member of The Specific Chiropractic Centers, a group of doctors with 17 offices across the nation that are dedicated to elevating the health of their communities through noninvasive Chiropractic care. The Specific Chiropractic believes in bringing the health of the nervous system back into the wellness conversation worldwide. While they have helped tens of thousands in the United States, they’ve also established a give back program which has allowed for the team’s annual mission trips to El Salvador, Mexico, and the Philippines since 2007. Dr. Kaci has been on multiple of these trips to El Salvador, providing specific Upper Cervical Chiropractic care. Because her company has been pivotal in creating and establishing the legislation for Chiropractic care in El Salvador and the Philippines, the patients they see during these trips are able to maintain care during the interim between their annual visits. Dr. Madden has been the clinic owner and director of the San Diego Specific Chiropractic centers location since 2018 and she served at the Kauai Hi location for 2 years prior. When she’s not pursuing her passion through chiropractic care, Dr. Madden can be found playing volleyball and enjoying the beach with her husband and three-month-old daughter. |
