MEET YOUR STROLL SPONSOR

I'm always happy to hear my neighbors recommend a new sponsor for Stroll. Last fall, Tami Ihm encouraged me to reach out to Ken Murkowski at Pro-Active Chiropractic and Wellness. I'm so glad I did. He was happy to partner and became our Athlete of the Month Sponsor. I also became a patient too and my neck pain is gone. Check out my Testimony. Let's first meet Ken (who also happens to be a member of the club too!):

Ken graduated from Palmer Chiropractic College in 2012 after graduating from Grand Valley State University in 2008. He began his chiropractic journey working in his father's office in Jackson, Michigan for 3 years before moving to Grand Rapids where he started his own clinic from the ground up. 

Five years after building and growing that practice, he sold it and moved to Clarkston and married his wife, Jamie, who he met 6 months after opening his clinic in Grand Rapids. Jamie graduated from P.A. school at the University of Detroit Mercy. Since then, she has been working as a Physician's Assistant at Henry Ford Hospital in the Emergency Department for the last 9 years. Needless to say, they had a long distance relationship for 5 years as Jamie was finishing her last year and a half of school and Ken was starting his office in Grand Rapids.

 

The move to this side of the state in 2020 during Covid. During that time, he sold his office in Grand Rapids, bought his  office here near Sashabaw, bought a house, and tried to get married all in the same year. The wedding venue shut down and Ken and Jamie shared their vows a year later in 2021. Today, they have been together for 10 years and married for 4 years.

WHO NEEDS CHIROPRACTIC CARE?

If you suffer from headaches or migraines, neck or back pain, TMJ problems, sleep, vertigo or balance issues, scoliosis, sciatica, degenerative disc or joint disease, herniated or bulging discs, radicular pain with numbness or tingling, spinal stenosis, extremity pain such as carpal tunnel, foot plantar fasciitis, digestive issues or pre and postnatal care, failed spinal surgery syndrome, post surgical recover, sports or auto injuries such as a Spinal Concussion WADS2 injury, chiropractic care can help you.

Pro Active Chiropractic and Wellness (PACW) patients find relief from these and other symptoms that, on their own, won't go away. Chiropractic Physicians Dr. Ken Murkowski and Dr. Matt Rayis focus their diagnosis on the Vertebral Subluxation Complex or VSC, made up of 8 physical and 8 chemical components, along with other complications such as disc protrusions, nerve root irritation and more. VSC plus soft tissue damage is prevalent in auto, personal injury and worker's compensation accidents as well as many of the symptoms listed above.

They begin with a thorough private doctor/patient consultation that includes a comprehensive case history and examination, determining range of motion, orthopedic, and neurological testing, and if necessary, spinal diagnostic x-rays, labs, and MRI and CT Scans. Once all clinical information has been reviewed, an individual report of findings or ROF will be shared with the patient to go over all treatment options available.

There are a number of options for treatment, including but not limited to target specific chiropractic adjustments, extremity manipulations, intersegmental traction, spine disc decompression, Gaston soft tissue mobilization, arthrostim therapy, denneroll fitting, ultrasound therapy, laser, custom cervical traction fitting, custom orthotics, nutritional supplement recommendations for pain control and soft tissue damage, weight loss program, behavior modification exercises, etc.

Most importantly, they accept most insurance plans, have individual payment plans available and accept Mastercard, Visa, etc. Consultations are free to answer all preliminary questions before beginning treatment. Ken and his staff are here to serve the people of Clarkston, the surrounding area and welcome patient referrals from other physicians. Share what you know about chiropractic care with others you know that deserve the care and attention they'll receive at Pro-Active Chiropractic and Wellness.
