Dr. Melissa Canchola was born in California but grew up primarily in Kansas. She has a deep love for the Johnson County area, and is an ardent fan of the state’s many sports teams.
She had her ...first adjustment at just 15 years old, and it made a lasting impression. After seeing how the adjustment helped not only her back but her entire system, she was eager to learn more. Her chiropractor explained how everything was connected and how her misalignment contributed to other issues in her body. That early experience inspired her to become a chiropractor, where she provides her patients the same relief and education that were so valuable to her.
What patients appreciate most about Dr. Melissa is how relatable and down to earth she is. She breaks down complex dynamics regarding our anatomy and how our bodies operate to help patients understand the importance of chiropractic care and maintaining their wellness.
Dr. Melissa defines wellness as feeling strong, balanced, and well cared for; the ability to function physically through movement and health, and emotionally through connection, consistency, and peace of mind.
She maintains her own wellness through CrossFit, walking her German shepherd, Reyna, and exploring downtown Kansas City. Her favorite football team is the San Francisco 49ers, and also enjoys rooting for Kansas City’s local soccer teams.
