Growing up, I was pretty active. I raced motocross, played football, and went snowboarding and mountain biking. I went to the chiropractor all the time because I was always hurt from crashing! Chiropractic kept me going, and I saw how much it helped me. Helping people feel better and get back to doing what they love is my favorite part about being a chiropractor; it’s extremely rewarding for me.
I know what it’s like to be in really bad pain, to feel like you’re never going to get better. I understand what my patients are experiencing and how depressing it can be because I’ve been there. Now, as a chiropractor, I’m able to help give patients hope and the relief they need.
Giving New Life
Not long ago Dr. Rookstool was stuck in a recliner experiencing unbearable pain. “I had been through an unsuccessful surgery and thought I would never get better. If I had known earlier what I know now, I would have not needed surgery. I’ve learned so much about different ways to help people in similar situations, and I do everything I can to teach my patients what they need to know to avoid that kind of pain.”
If you’re a patient who thinks that your pain can’t get any worse, Dr. Rookstool wants to help you get your life back, so you can get back to what you love to do. That’s a pretty big win.
