Introducing Lewisburg Chiropractor Dr. Michael Morrison
"Years ago something happened to me that changed my life forever," remembers Dr. Michael Morrison.
"Back when I was in high school I attended a basketball camp every summer. While enjoying an evening swim in the camp's pool, I dove headfirst from a "high dive" diving board. Big Mistake! I landed crooked and really hurt my neck. I had to go home early from camp because of the pain. A few days later I began to get bad headaches as well as numbness in my hands. I tried pain-killing drugs and got little to no relief. I started to get pretty scared. Here I was, just a young guy, and I was walking around with terrible pain every day. Would I have to live like this forever?"
But Listen to this...
"My parents convinced me to give a chiropractor a try. The chiropractor did an exam, took some x-rays, and then 'adjusted' my spine. The adjustment didn't hurt, it actually felt good. I got relief, and I could use my hands again. It worked so well for me, and I was so impressed with the other 'miracles' I saw in his office, that I went to chiropractic school myself."
Dr. Morrison began his pre-chiropractic education at IUP where he studied the basic sciences such as inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, biology, along with basic physiology and anatomy courses.
After completing his study there, he was accepted at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. During his four years at Palmer, courses included biochemistry, a major emphasis on anatomy and human physiology, X-ray, diagnosis, chiropractic adjusting techniques and patient care in the Palmer College Public Clinic. After graduating in 2003 Dr. Morrison returned to Central Pennsylvania to establish his practice.
Dr. Morrison is married to Michelle and they have a son, Mason and a daughter Marlee. Their children have never been vaccinated or received an antibiotic. (If that sounds interesting, be sure to ask Dr. Morrison to explain!) Dr. Morrison enjoys spending lots of time with his family, especially outdoors. When not in the office, Dr. Morrison can typically be found on the stream fishing, in the woods hunting, or riding his motorcycle or snowmobile.
Chiropractors need chiropractic care too!
Dr. Morrison gets adjusted at least once a week by his friends and colleagues including is brother-in-law, Dr. Thad Diehl, of State College, PA.
"Being a chiropractor is a very physical job," comments Dr. Morrison. "I must take good care of my body in order to give the best care possible to my patients. That includes regular exercise and eating a healthy diet as well as getting my spine adjusted on a regular basis!"
