Chiro One Wellness Center
Chiropractic Clinic

All of Dr. Nelson’s patients will tell you that his mission is to share the meaning of health with as many people in the Chicagoland community as possible.

After immigrating from Japan as an infant, ...Dr. Nelson was raised in Branson, MO where he learned to live by Albert Einstein's directive: "Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile." After enjoying successful chiropractic treatment for a high school injury at age 15, Dr. Nelson began seeing a DC regularly. He soon discovered chiropractic positively affected more than his low back — his allergies, headaches and digestive issues had also been resolved. That's when he realized he’d found the true meaning of health and wellness.

To maintain his own wellness Dr. Nelson enjoys running, functional training, playing football, attending sporting events and traveling. To keep himself in check on a daily basis he refers to Jim Rohn's quote, "Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day."

After completing his BS in biology with a minor in chemistry at the University of Missouri-Columbia, Dr. Nelson earned his Doctorate of Chiropractic degree at Logan College of Chiropractic, where he volunteered at the Ronald McDonald House and refined his wellness care specialty.

Dr. Strickland loves seeing patients' faces light up when their condition starts to improve. It's what keeps them coming back to each appointment until they're able to return to the activities they love. ...Helping people live their best lives was always part of his childhood in Glendale Heights Il, where his passion for patient care was born. After injuring his shoulder, Dr. Strickland tried months of physical therapy with minimal results. Once he turned to chiropractic care, improvement in his shoulder pain was almost immediate, and in two weeks it had completely resolved. That's when he realized he was meant to pursue a career in chiropractic care.

For Dr. Strickland, wellness requires the right attitude, which is summed up in his favorite quote from basketball player Jimmy V: "Never give up! Failure and rejection are only the first step to succeeding."To maintain his own wellness Dr. Strickland explores Chicago's ethnic neighborhoods, runs, works out, hikes and travels as much as possible.

After completing his BS in biology at Augustana College, Dr. Strickland earned his Doctorate of Chiropractic from the National University of Health Sciences, where he was a member the Motion Palpitation Club and the Sports Rehab Club. These experiences helped him hone in on his chiropractic specialties: sports injury management and palpitation.
