For more information, or to schedule an appointment with Dr. John, call 616-642-9455 today! Let me introduce myself. My name is John Thorp and I am a chiropractor serving Saranac and the surrounding Mid Michigan area. I graduated from Lakewood Public School in 1977 and then Alma College in 1980 with a Bachelor of Social Work. I then spent the next 13 years of my career in the social work profession finshing up at Ionia County Mental Health.
Some also remember me as the owner and operator of CATHARSIS, a massage clinic in Ionia. I then sold CATHARSIS and moved to Davenport, Iowa to begin my chiropractic education. I graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic in October of 1998 after a short residency in the country of Nepal and in Charlotte, Michigan. I then opened by clinic in Saranac the following weekend and have been here ever since.
I prefer the slower pace that the rural life offers. I never wanted to do the 5 minute adjustments 3 times a week or until the insurance money ran out practice.

In some ways, one could say that chiropractic care is a bit like building a house - certain things have to happen in a particular order in order for everything to stand strong and work together correctly.
When building a house, if you tried to build your walls before you had a solid foundation, your walls would be weak and eventually may even collapse.
If you tried to build your roof before the walls were ready, you would run into the same problem.
These concepts apply to your body as well, and chiropractic care addresses many common reasons why people experience pain and other health issues.

Many people go to a chiropractor because they are in pain.
In this first phase of care, the main goal is to reduce your symptoms.
Most chiropractors will require daily visits, or two to three visits per week for a time.
In general, most patients at Saranac Chiropractic center are seen weekly until they are 80% resolved.
Most people are under the assumption that if they don't feel any pain that there is nothing wrong with them - that they are healthy.
Unfortunately, pain is a very poor indicator of health.
