Introducing Newport Beach Chiropractor Dr. Jennifer Angell

"I couldn't stop laughing.  I swear I've never laughed so hard in my entire life!"

Newport Beach, California Chiropractor, Dr. Jennifer AngellBeing a Children's Chiropractor was not a pre-planned, methodically executed career path.  Rather, events happened in my life which paved the way for this extraordinary calling.

I was born the third child, a "carbon copy" of my mother.  I was bright, affectionate, and inquisitive.  My sparkle and shine was darkened the day my mother died from an unexpected heart attack.  I was four years old.

Growing up with three brothers and three sisters, and a child care center run by my Stepmother, I was always surrounded by infants and children.  I helped raise my younger siblings, and eventually worked for the child care center.

Because of my love for children, I began college with studying Early Child Development.  However, I was haunted by questions.  Hard questions.  Painful questions.  Unanswered questions.

Why did my mother die unexpectedly from a heart attack at 34 years of age?  How did that affect the future health and well-being of her children, aged 8,6,4,2, and six months?

So I changed my major to chemistry.  I was going to be a medical researcher.  I was going to save lives.  I was going to get my questions answered.

I was a senior in college when my best friend suffered a work injury.  Jes slipped on a wet floor and hurt her lower back.  She was advised to see a chiropractor.  A what?  What was that?  Jes grew up with chiropractic care.  Her family were chiropractic patients.  So she brought me along.

When Jes received her chiropractic adjustment, I couldn't stop laughing.  I swear I have never laughed so hard in my entire life!  I giggled.  I chuckled.  I doubled over.  I fell down with hysterics. 

But I saw her get better.  Immediately.

Long story short, Jes and I were hired as chiropractic assistants.  I was accepted to Northwestern College of Chiropractic for the 1998 fall class.

I got my questions answered.  And I save lives every day.

I am a Certified Birth Doula and have a Fellowship in the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association.

Family, Pregnancy & Children's Chiropractic has a strong, scientifically based practice philosophy.

The nervous system controls every cell, tissue, and organ in the body.  Any interference to the nervous system will interfere with the body's innate ability to adapt, regulate, and heal.  Nerve interference which is caused by a spinal misalignment is called a subluxation.  Chiropractors correct subluxations, thus restoring nerve function.  This allows the body to heal, regulate, and adapt appropriately to the environment.

Falls, poor posture, accidents, injuries, traumas, sports, and repetitive activities are all causes of subluxations.  Even "natural" childbirth can cause spinal malpositions.  In fact, research shows subluxations can actually occur in the womb, before the child is born!

These subluxations can cause many health conditions.  Allergies.  Colic.  Bedwetting.  Headaches.  Irritability.  Aggression.  Asthma.  Pain.

Give your child the chance to live the chiropractic lifestyle--subluxation free!

Living a chiropractic lifestyle is about making choices that strive for improved health and wellness.  I used to think it was only a matter of time before my family genes would cause me to develop heart disease--or suffer a heart attack.  Now I know I can modify my risk factors.  After putting on extra weight in college, I also realized that diet and exercise would become a lifelong, conscious, daily necessity, and not a choice.  I cross train with running, cycling, and swimming, use cardio machines, lift weights, and enjoy yoga and Pilates.  My diet consists of whole and natural foods, vegetables, fruits, quality proteins, nuts, and seeds. 

Regular chiropractic adjustments (1-3 times per week) round out my health profile.  My family and friends are all adjusted on a regular basis as well.

Events in my life, especially at such a young age, influenced my health choices.  And I chose the chiropractic lifestyle!  Care to join me?

Dr. Jennifer  Asks some important questions of interest to Newport Beach residents - Chiropractor Newport Beach Dr. Jennifer Asks...

How come medical doctors don't recommend chiropractic?
That's changing. Years of prejudice and bias are giving way to research showing the benefits of chiropractic care. As more and more Newport Beach folks seek alternatives to drugs and surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to chiropractors.
How do you know when you're healthy?
Ask most Newport Beach residents this simple question and you're likely to hear, "When you feel good" or "When you're at your proper weight for your height" or "When you have lots of energy and vitality." Great answers. But our chiropractic practice members know that true health is when your body is working as it was designed. True health is how you function, not how you feel.
