Meet Dr. Taylor Wenrick, DC
Chiropractic has always played a significant role throughout Dr. Taylor’s life. Her chiropractic story started before she was even born, when her mom had a successful VBAC due to receiving care during her pregnancy. Then from a young age her parents brought her to a chiropractor to prevent ear infections. Throughout grade school she became very involved in swimming and water polo and continued seeing a sports chiropractor to help with recovery, performance, and injury prevention. She attributes her success in sports to chiropractic care and eventually went on to play water polo at the collegiate level at Michigan State University (Go Green!).
Discovery of a Significant Health Issue
After her second season of competing, Dr. Taylor began experiencing low back pain which she thought was due to her vigorous training schedule. Thankfully her chiropractor noticed this red flag, as she had never had pain like this before in all her years of being under care. After further testing and examinations, her chiropractor eventually found a bone tumor growing in her pelvis.
Choosing a Career in Chiropractic
Dr. Taylor chose to pursue a degree in Kinesiology knowing she wanted to go into the health field. After receiving this diagnosis, it helped her reflect on how chiropractic care has significantly shifted her trajectory of health and healing.
Integrative Approach to Healing
Dr. Taylor is no stranger when it comes to dealing with the stress that comes with high performance and expectations of self. The pursuit of these things often demands significant personal sacrifices, including the neglect of mental and emotional health.
Societal expectations and external pressures can perpetuate the cycle of chronic stress, anxiety, and depression and eventually begin to manifest physically in various ways. She has seen this happen not only in herself, but also her patients. When stuck in these loops, it can prevent individuals from improving their health and wellbeing.
After further research she learned about the significant benefits of integrative psychotherapy, specifically with processing stress and trauma. She is passionate about helping people heal their mind and body as a whole through the combination of neurologic based chiropractic care and mental health services.
