Dr. Calkins has been a chiropractor in Monroe since 2004, and started his own practice in August, 2011. He believes that treating musculoskeletal issues prevents degeneration of the spinal column. Degeneration of the spinal column leads to irregularities in the nervous system. Therefore, maintaining the health of the spinal column via treatment of musculoskeletal issues will help prevent the natural degenerative process, which in turn contributes to the up keep of the nervous system over a lifetime.
