There’s nothing more powerful than feeling fully alive and helping others feel that way too.

What started as a passion became something much bigger:
A mission.

A mission to help driven people break through limits they didn’t even realize were there.
Not just to feel better, but to become their absolute best.

That mission led me to study how the body truly works and ultimately create a performance-first approach rooted in chiropractic care.

It’s not a generic protocol.
It’s a philosophy I’ve refined through years of focused work with elite performers, where precision, intention, and consistency make all the difference.

An approach built by identifying what drives energy, clarity, and sustained performance – and eliminating what quietly holds it back.

THE SYSTEM TRAP

Because real health isn’t just about avoiding illness or treating pain.
It’s about saving time, energy, and the hidden costs that come with musculoskeletal issues.

The thing is…those issues rarely stay isolated.

Left unchecked, they trigger a costly cascade of wasted time:
From GP misdiagnoses to unnecessary specialist visits…
From redundant MRIs to prescription meds…
From ineffective therapy to endless insurance back-and-forth –
the kind of loop designed to manage symptoms, not resolve them.

A medical system where everyone benefits except the patient –
while the real problem is left to quietly persist.

That’s the cycle I help the people I work with avoid.
By going straight to the source, the nervous system, and solving the right problem from the start.

HOW IT ALL STARTED – TURNING POINT

That’s actually exactly what led me to chiropractic care.
Because nothing impacts the body’s potential more directly than the nervous system and chiropractic is how we access it.

It’s funny…
My path to chiropractic wasn’t “traditional”.
It started on the track.

I was a college athlete, majoring in biology, with plans to become an orthopedic surgeon.
I wasn’t injured. I didn’t feel broken.
But one day, a teammate, an Olympian actually, suggested I visit his chiropractor.

I was open. So I went.

And that one session changed everything…

I didn’t just feel better…
My performance leveled up in ways I hadn’t anticipated.
More energy. Faster recovery. Better connection to my body.
It was a game-changer.

I ran my fastest times ever –
Finished all-conference in four events:
400m, 200m, 4x100m relay, and 4x400m.

That was my first real experience of what chiropractic care could unlock.
Not just pain relief… but potential.

That was the moment everything clicked.

I didn’t want to patch people up after surgery anymore.
I wanted to help them avoid surgery altogether.
To help healthy people unlock their higher level and stay there.

That one experience reshaped my entire path.
And I haven’t looked back since.
I love this work even more than when I started.

Because every day, I get to help people experience what I felt in that one moment – not just relief, but a powerful reconnection to their body’s potential.

WHAT EXPERIENCE TAUGHT ME

And after 25 years, I’ve learned something critical:
Experience alone doesn’t create results…how you apply it does.
That’s exactly where I’ve focused my career.

In that time, I’ve become the person other doctors quietly refer to when nothing else is working.

I’ve been called in to adjust athletes on the day of major events and consulted by CEOs whose performance depends on how they feel the next morning.

I’ve spent years working closely with high-level professionals – studying what holds them back, what moves the needle, and what actually sustains peak output.

That journey led to my approach built around one central truth:
No two bodies are the same.

There is no single method…
Every adjustment is guided by decades of hands-on experience and what your body needs right now.

How I work on you might be completely different from how I work on your neighbor.

Because real care isn’t about repeating a formula…
It’s about listening, observing, and delivering exactly what gets your system firing on all cylinders.

My Approach: Principled + Adaptive
A results-first philosophy, custom-fit to the individual in front of me.

When you’ve worked on thousands of unique bodies for 25 years, patterns reveal themselves.
You know exactly what each one needs.

No scripts. No formulas. Just real understanding – expert care that delivers exactly what your body needs, every time.

I don’t just adjust what’s tight, I find what’s limiting your capacity.

– One session I might focus on restoring thoracic mobility to unlock your breathing.
– The next could target nerve flow to reduce cognitive fatigue.
– Sometimes it’s about releasing fascial restrictions to boost recovery and reduce wear and tear.
– Or dialing in vagus nerve function to calm your system and sharpen focus.
= Other times, it means rebalancing your nervous system to shift you out of stress mode.

Each session is a strategic step forward – your body’s needs are always evolving.

INSIDE A SESSION

Every session starts the same way:
On your schedule. In your space. No traffic. No waiting rooms.

I show up prepared – not just with equipment, but with a clear intention to make the most of our time together.

From the moment I walk in, it’s all about you.

We begin with real human connection – something that’s unfortunately been lost over the years.
A genuine conversation, not a clipboard.

We talk about life. Then I ask:
How are you moving? How are you feeling? What’s shifted since last time?

Because your body doesn’t exist in isolation –
It reflects everything you’ve been carrying, doing, and navigating.

Next we move to the table for a few simple assessments:
I’ll look at how you’re standing, how you’re breathing, and how your spine is moving today versus last session. I might ask you to walk, rotate, or lie in a certain position to see how your body’s adapting.

Then comes one of the more revealing parts – comparative muscle strength testing.
You’ll not only feel the difference, you’ll see it too.

The same test that showed weakness before the session, afterwards, will show stability, strength, and control.
It’s real-time proof that something shifted and your body knows it.

From there, I zero in – always tailored to what your system needs right now.

I release key areas of tension to prepare your body for what comes next:
A precise, purposeful adjustment – calibrated not just to “crack”, but to correct.
This is where everything aligns.

You might feel an immediate shift – a release, a clarity, a breath you didn’t even realize you were holding.
It’s the kind of change your nervous system registers – not just physically, but energetically.

Between adjustments, I layer in strategic coaching, breathwork cues, or guided movement to reinforce and lock in the shift.
Because what we’re creating isn’t temporary relief, it’s a new baseline of function.

Each piece is deliberate, not just to create change, but to help your body hold and build on the progress we’ve made.

Once everything’s integrated, we take a moment to ground, reset your breath, recalibrate your focus, and make sure your nervous system leaves in a parasympathetic state.

You leave lighter, clearer, and more connected — like your body and mind are finally back in sync.

With me, care is designed to restore mobility and clear the hidden roadblocks your system couldn’t resolve on its own.
When your spine moves the way it’s meant to, everything else begins to follow.

To make that happen, I follow your body.
Every session is built around what your system needs right now.

THE FOUR PILLARS OF MY APPROACH

That’s why this personalized approach blends together:
• Targeted nervous system adjustments
• Performance-based biomechanics
• Precision mobility restoration
• And recovery optimization

All customized to the individual.

This isn’t just about “feeling better”.
It’s about helping your body operate at its highest level, day in, day out, without interruption.

WHO I WORK WITH

Along the journey, I’ve had the privilege of working with everyone from Team Captains on professional sports teams and Fortune 500 executives to busy, results-driven parents, creatives, and entrepreneurs.

But it’s not just for those already performing at the highest level.

Some come to me the moment they realize their current standard is holding them back and they’re committed to upgrading it permanently.

They want to feel good consistently, move better, and live with more energy.
Some are ready to level up.
Others are done tolerating mediocrity and they’re all-in on getting to their best.

Either way, it begins at the foundation: restoring optimal biomechanics.

WHY HIGH STANDARDS MATTER

Remember, peak performance isn’t about titles…it’s about standards.
The people I work with, whether they’re climbing or already at the “top”, are committed to holding themselves to a higher standard than most.

So being even slightly “off” isn’t just inconvenient, it’s costly.
Whether it’s energy, focus, or output…the cost is real.

They’d fall behind if they operated at anything less than full capacity.
There’s no room to feel off, out of sync, or operating at 80%.
They don’t settle for “good enough.”

And if they can’t settle for “good enough”,…
neither should you.

CHIROPRACTIC TODAY

Through years of experience, one thing has become obvious:
Chiropractic care’s full potential has been quietly diminished –
Replaced by rushed appointments, cookie-cutter clinics, and check-the-box sessions.

Most people mistake a single, generic adjustment for the full experience.
They try one or two sessions, feel a little relief…
And never discover what consistent, intentional chiropractic care can truly unlock.

Even those who believe in chiropractic often settle for quick fixes, never tapping into the sustained performance their nervous system is capable of.

THE TRUTH ABOUT TRANSFORMATION

Real transformation doesn’t happen overnight.
It comes from consistent, personalized care over time.
Because that’s how the nervous system learns, adapts, and upgrades.
You’re not just getting adjusted. You’re retraining your system to function the way it was built to, session by session.

In the right hands, chiropractic becomes one of the most powerful, yet overlooked, catalysts in human performance.
That’s exactly what I’ve dedicated my career to mastering.

And it’s what led me to develop a different approach, one built for those who expect more.

An approach grounded in precision, intention, and performance.
Every adjustment is purposeful. Every session is personalized.
Because when you’re working with the nervous system, the control center of your body, details matter.

Even after 25 years, I still learn something new every week.  
When someone trusts me with their health, I owe them nothing less.

You could only imagine the feeling I get when I see the look on their face when they realize how good their body was supposed to feel all along.

That moment never gets old.

REDEFINING THE STANDARD

I get contacted all the time by someone who was referred by someone because when nothing else is working, they’re told to call me.

That’s why I’ve quietly become the second opinion for high-level individuals across multiple industries and usually the last one they need.

Not because I do something flashy…but because I see what others miss, and I solve what others overlook.

A Fortune 500 exec who couldn’t sleep through the night now wakes up energized and focused. –

“I didn’t realize how much I was compensating, both physically and mentally, until I started working with Dr. Derek. Within a couple months, my pain was gone, but more importantly, I felt clear, energized, and fully in my body again. This wasn’t just a fix, it was a full reset.”

An athlete sidelined with shoulder pain now trains daily without restriction. –
“When someone I truly trust told me, “You need to work with Dr. Derek”, I listened. And I’m so glad I did. It’s rare to find care this intentional, this effective, and this personalized.”

A high-performing parent who struggled with chronic back tension and afternoon crashes now moves freely, sleeps deeper, and shows up fully for their family and work. –

“I used to bounce between appointments, wasting hours chasing relief. Now, Dr. Derek shows up at my door – on time, fully prepared, and completely focused on me. He tailored every session to what I needed that week. The quality of care is unlike anything I’ve experienced, and it’s tailored down to the smallest detail. I’m not just out of pain, I’m performing better in every area of my life.”

When your nervous system flows without interference, everything changes.
Energy. Focus. Strength. Recovery. Clarity. Longevity.

I’ve seen the difference firsthand.

THE MOST PERSONAL CASE STUDY

But the most powerful case study?
It’s personal.

I’ve been working on my own two kids since they were just two hours old – adjusting them right after birth to give their nervous systems the strongest start possible.
And if there was a #1 Proud Dad trophy, I’d win it every year.

Their drive, discipline, and clarity are years beyond their age.
The most remarkable part?
They’ve rarely ever gotten sick.

They’re proof of what’s possible when the nervous system is supported from the very beginning.

Their bodies are resilient. Their minds are sharp.
They move through life with determination, presence, and an inner steadiness that’s hard to teach.

That’s what happens when your body functions the way it was designed to, consistently and without interference.

THE ROLE OF THE SPINE

And at the core of that system?
Your spine.

It’s not just there to hold you upright.
It protects your spinal cord, the main communication highway between your brain and your body.
When it’s malfunctioning, that signal is disrupted.
And when the signal is off, everything’s off.

But when your spine is functioning properly and the nervous system flows freely, you perform at your peak.
Mentally. Physically. Emotionally.

It’s all coordinated through your nervous system.
And your spine plays a foundational role in protecting and powering it.

IS CHIROPRACTIC CARE SAFE?

But here’s the surprising part:
Despite how powerful chiropractic care is…it’s also one of the safest.

In fact, chiropractors pay as little as $1,000 a year for liability insurance.
Compare that to:
• Primary Care Doctors – $14,000+
• Orthopedic Surgeons – $48,000+
• Psychiatrists – $10,000+

What does this signal?
It’s not just effective, it’s one of the safest forms of care available.

Chiropractic care is one of the only fields that consistently addresses the root cause – the nervous system itself – before symptoms spiral into bigger, costlier problems.

It’s proactive care, not reactive treatment.

Most people just don’t know.
And that’s part of the problem.

The system doesn’t make it easy.
It offers pain relief – but not optimization.
It offers access – but not education.

THE VISION BEHIND DR. DEREK’S CONCIERGE CHIROPRACTIC

That’s actually how Dr. Derek’s Concierge Chiropractic was born.

After two decades of working with athletes, executives, and high-performing individuals, the pattern was always the same:
They were busy. But they were also burned by rushed, generic care that didn’t match their standards.

So I did what I’ve always done – I customized everything.
I studied their movement, adapted to their physiology, and delivered care that actually made a difference.

One day, I was working on a friend of mine – at my house.
After his session, he said something that stuck with me:

“Listen Derek, I’ve been to multiple chiropractors and the way you work on, really, with me, is way different from the rest I’ve been to AND I don’t have to sit in an office, waiting AND we get to connect. Why are you not doing this for more people?”

BUILT FOR THOSE WHO EXPECT MORE

That question lit the fire.

Because it wasn’t just a great experience –
It was a better model.

Real chiropractic care. Personalized. Precise. Convenient.
Exactly what high-performing people were looking for… but couldn’t find.

And by that point, something else had become clear:
I had built a reputation for getting results others couldn’t and doing it without the noise, fluff, or ego.

Just a deep understanding of anatomy and physiology.
An intuitive sense for biomechanics, nerve function, and movement.
Rooted in real assessment: hands-on experience, sharp observation, refined feel, and active listening.

Eventually, the results started speaking louder than the marketing around them.

NOT A CLINIC… IT’S A MOVEMENT

That’s when Dr. Derek’s Concierge Chiropractic became real.

Not a clinic.
A movement.

One built for busy, results-driven individuals who expect more.

THE HIDDEN COST OF STANDARD CARE

Because the real cost of “standard” care isn’t just the appointment fee.
It’s the opportunity cost of hours lost in traffic and waiting rooms.
It’s the friction of rearranging your day to fit someone else’s schedule.
It’s the hidden price of generic care that doesn’t solve the root issue and leads to even more appointments, more downtime, and more wasted energy.

When your time is valuable, and your health is mission-critical, that cost adds up fast.

The people I work with understand this:
Their time is worth $100’s, sometimes $1,000’s, per hour – and wasted hours don’t just disappear, they stack.
So when rushed, cookie-cutter 10-minute care steals 60 minutes of their day, that’s not just inefficient…
It’s a compounding cost successful people refuse to pay.

WHAT DR. DEREK’S CONCIERGE CHIROPRACTIC DELIVERS

They don’t just want care that works…
They want 1-on-1 care that respects their time and keeps them moving forward.

That’s what Dr. Derek’s Concierge Chiropractic was built to deliver.
