Dr. Madelyn Folcik

doctor of chiropractic

I am one of ten children on my Mom’s side. I have two half-siblings, four-siblings, and another three step-siblings. I love them all dearly, but getting to the point where my family is now has been a roller coaster. Part of that roller coaster has been tons of emotional trauma and dysregulation. All those stressors really added up and took their toll on me, and as a child this led to anxiety, self-confidence issues, and difficulty finding my purpose. The gift of Chiropractic was not introduced to me until I was already 20 years old, and by that time all those years of emotional dysfunction had built upon one another. At that point of my life, I thought I finally grew out of the trauma of my childhood, but in reality I was just growing into new things.

When I first started Chiropractic, I had no idea that there are Chiropractors who are neurologically focused. More importantly, I had no idea how much neurologically focused Chiropractic Care could have helped sixth-grade me when my Mom and Dad were getting divorced. Knowing what I know now, I would have been far better off emotionally and physiologically if I had a Chiropractor to guide me through the turmoil of that time. Instead of working on my emotions, I put band-aids over the problems, which kept piling on continuous stress onto my nervous system.

Since I began my journey of Chiropractic and healing, I have learned that every nervous system is able to heal and repair. As I go under continued Chiropractic Care, my nervous system is working to re-establish neural connections to help with my emotional regulation, the element of my life that I was unable to truly control up until this point. If there is one change I could have provided to my younger self, it would have been to place her in a Pediatric Experience Office. There, my younger self would have received top of the line nervous-system treatment, including iNSIGHT scans which allow us to assess our nervous system on a deeper level.

I only wish that young me had a Doctor who cares for her patients the way I do, and wants to see the best out of each and every person that walks through our door. I am thrilled and blessed to be in the atmosphere I am in today, and I love coming to our office and being able to help families in need.
