DR. ANTHONY MONNIN SPEAKS AT POWER OVER PARKINSON’S GROUP

Dr. Anthony Monnin spoke September 11, 2013, at Versailles Health Care Center during the Power Over Parkinson’s meeting. He shared his presentation, “Benefits of Upper Cervical Care for People with Parkinson’s” with over 40 attendees. Dr. Monnin has been serving patients at his current Upper Cervical Health Centers office location in Botkins, Ohio, since 2009. He received his certification from the Upper Cervical Academy. This post doctorate program offers doctors specialized training in Upper Cervical anatomy, history and philosophy, basic and advanced neurology of the Upper Cervical spine, Upper Cervical protocols, and Upper Cervical pediatrics. Dr. Monnin is currently enrolled in the inaugural class of the Upper Cervical Diplomate program through the International Chiropractic Association. He graduated from Logan College of Chiropractic with a Bachelor’s Degree of Life Science and a Doctorate of Chiropractic. He received his Upper Cervical training from Dr. John Strazewski of Palmer College of Chiropractic, in Davenport, IA, and mentoring from Upper Cervical Health Centers, Inc.

According to Dr. Monnin, “The most common misconception about upper cervical care is that it only helps back and neck pain. Patients suffering from a variety of conditions have had their health restored through upper cervical care.”
