Meet Dr. James Hauke

Sharing the Freedom

Dr James photoDr. James Hauke didn’t grow up aspiring to be a chiropractor. Then, while in college, he was involved in a serious car accident that left him with constant headaches, weakness in his legs and discoordination. His primary care doctor offered muscle relaxers and pain relievers, but Dr. Hauke was reluctant to go down that path.

As an athlete, he didn’t want to mask his symptoms—he wanted to understand what was going on and correct the problem. Unfortunately, he got progressively worse over a period of months and began suffering with depression and an inability to concentrate on his classwork.

Finally, the burning pain in his back prompted him to seek care from a chiropractor, since he had heard that chiropractors focus on the neck and back. Within a few months, his headaches had resolved. As he continued with care, his energy and concentration improved and he kept asking his chiropractor what was going on in his body.

Eventually, his chiropractor suggested Dr. Hauke pursue chiropractic as a career himself. Dr. Hauke was excited at the prospect of helping people regain freedom the same way chiropractic had helped him.
