My name is Donna Vickers, and I am a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP).
My husband, Dr. Joel Vickers, and welcome you to our office, Vickers AK Chiropractic, located at 12930 James Street in Holland, Michigan.
I started working with Dr. Vickers, in his Chiropractic office in 2006.
I didn't know it then, but I was starting a new journey towards the world of nutritional therapy.
Over the years, I have attended many chiropractic and nutrition seminars learning different techniques to determine nutritional deficiencies and imbalances throughout the body.

Being trained for over 28 years, he fully understands how a patient's nutritional status could impact their body's ability to heal and "hold" its Chiropractic adjustments.
However, as a Doctor of Chiropractic who specializes in Applied Kinesiology, there are other services I can render at Vickers AK Chiropractic that far surpass that of basic Chiropractic.
For example, did you know Carpal Tunnel Syndrome may be caused by one or more muscles that hold the bones of your wrist and forearm together and is easily corrected?

Every joint in the body has muscles that cross the joints that (hopefully) are balanced enough to keep them aligned.
There are 650 muscles that move 200 bones and hold these bones in their proper alignment.
By "proper alignment" I mean they are aligned in such a way that the ends of the bones, i.e., the joints, fit perfectly together.
What happens if they're not lined up the way your genes dictate that they should be aligned?
These misalignments cause pain because they have become inflamed!
Do your joints need long-term support in the form of tape, straps and harnesses?

What is it?
The Carpal Tunnel is a narrow passageway in your wrist that is made up of bones and ligaments.
The Median Nerve, which runs from your shoulder to your hand, passes through this tiny tunnel and controls sensation in palm and fingers and movement in all your fingers except the pinky.
What are the symptoms?
When that nerve gets compressed, the result is tingling, numbness, pain, or weakness in the arm and hand, creating Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, or CTS.
Some loose their gripping and pinching ability as the thumb becomes weaker, finding it almost impossible to open bottle caps or pick up items with thumb and forefinger.

Do you ever wonder why you can't do the things you used to do when you were younger?
Things like.walking, or running, or jumping?
Are you telling your friends you can't take them up on their offer to play in that softball or volleyball league with them because of that old hip or knee injury, the nagging shoulder pain, or the wrist soreness?
Have you told your buddies that the flag football or basketball games are now just a distant memory and that you don't do that anymore.
