Chiropractic is a form of alternative medicine that mainly deals with the diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine. A chiropractor uses spinal adjustments, manipulation, and other techniques to manage patients’ health concerns, including neck pain and back pain. They aim to improve patients’ functionality and quality of life by properly aligning the body’s musculoskeletal structure and enabling the body to heal itself without the use of medication or surgery. 

Recognized as one of the most sought after chiropractors in Avon and the surrounding areas, Dr. Santiago’s passions include working with and advocating for individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities, creating healthy recipes, as well as exploring new countries.
