The West Des Moines Chiropractor to see - Chiropractor West Des Moines

West Des Moines Chiropractor, Dr. Thad Fever

It was no miracle or one adjustment story that caught my love for chiropractic, but a passionate doctor.

My chiropractic journey actually began in this very office, with Hassel Family Chiropractic. My family began going to see Dr. Hassel when I was beginning my undergraduate studies at the University of Northern Iowa. When I was home on breaks, I would get adjusted, and Dr. Hassel would inform me piece by piece about chiropractic, the body and health. After shadowing him a few times I saw how much he loved what he did and the people that he helped. Finally it hit me: this is without question what I want to do. It was that fire and passion to get sick people well that I saw in what he did that inspired me.

I went to Palmer College of Chiropractic in lovely Davenport IA the day after I graduated from UNI. It was there that I got involved with the Gonstead Club and the Troxel Intern Program, where I later became an intern and finished my career there as the Head Intern. I cannot explain the value of what I learned through Gonstead doctors and the Intern Program in teaching me the Gonstead System.

My desire and what I strive for in practice every day is getting people well through specific chiropractic care. I believe I get to wake up every morning and go to the best job in the world. I love being passionate about what we do and educating people about their God given ability to let the body heal itself.

My wife, Stephanie, and I keep pretty busy with our two year old son Will, and baby Fever on the way. We are active in our church and community. As a family we enjoy spending time with friends, family, the outdoors, sports and all forms of exercise. I personally enjoy wrestling with my son, teaching him sports and other mischevious things, working out, spending time with my wife, anything outdoors and the Iowa Hawkeyes.

I get adjusted once a week. My wife gets adjusted once a week. My son has not been vaccinated and has been adjusted since he was born. Chiropractic care is my family's health care. I workout every day during the week and stay as active as I can with my family on the weekends. We eat as much real whole foods as we can. How can I educate people about their health if I am not living it myself?

My passion is getting people well with chiropractic care. I would love to have an opportunity to meet you and talk about how we can fit chiropractic into your health equation.
