A 7-year-old was diagnosed with degenerative hip disease and told that she’d never lead a full active life. Her parents didn’t accept that…and took her to a chiropractor!

In this episode of What Chiropractic Doesn’t Cure: Stories of Innate, I talk to the amazing Dr. Megan Afshar Martins. She practices at Upstate Specific Chiropractic in Greenville, SC, and specializes in upper cervical care and working with many families, pregnant women, and kids. She is also a regular speaker for Dynamic Essentials and the ICPA.

She tells a great story of a woman who had been under chiropractic care since childhood and how it liberated her to live a full life, from powerlifting to hiking!

Dr. Megan also shares how she uses a special patient appreciation day to give back to her community and how she gives back to chiropractic by hosting students and interns.

I’m grateful for how she told how her chiropractic story has grown and changes since becoming a mother as well.
