Shane Kepler, D.C.

I was only five years old at the time, Medical Doctors told my parents I had severe scoliosis, a condition of abnormal curvature of the spine. Doctor after doctor tried to figure out what to do with me, how to help me. They said that I would probably not be able to walk by the time I reached my late teenage years. If I was to walk, it would be difficult with slow and deliberate movements. My parents had to make a choice of whether to choose surgery, which had a low success rate followed by wearing a rigid plastic back brace, or let me grow up awkward, and possibly crippled. In the end my parents took the advice of some close family friends. These friends suggested that my parents take me to a Chiropractor in Longmont, Colorado, a three hours drive from my hometown in Nebraska. I still remember that drive, to a 5-year old it seemed like forever. My Parents were very impressed by the Chiropractor’s knowledge, and soon after, I began receiving regular chiropractic adjustments. The end result was worth every minute. My spine was straight and strong. I went on to participate high school athletics. My football and track abilities helped me earn a scholarship for college. I am still very active today. Everything I have accomplished I owe to chiropractic care, it literally saved my life. Naturally, I feel compelled to help other people through chiropractic care.
