Chiro One Chiropractic & Wellness Center
South Loop, Chicago, IL

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. Rahul grew up in Faribault, Minnesota where he was an enthusiastic athlete – in fact, his favorite thing about his childhood was playing sports, including running track and cross country and serving ...as captain for both teams. He eventually became a distance runner and is proud to say he has run the entire city of Faribault multiple times – when he wasn’t swimming the town’s three different lakes!

Dr. Rahul always knew he wanted to become a healthcare professional but after trying Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Athletic Training, journalism, pharmacy, and even nursing, he hadn’t found the right fit. Then he discovered chiropractic and knew he’d found the right path for him.

What patients love most about Dr. Rahul is his ability to listen and hone-in on the problem/ He also has a light adjusting technique and utilizes multiple adjustments for the same area to find the one that works best for the unique needs of each patient.

His approach to wellness is that though it may seem like a lot of work to maintain your wellness, it pays off in so many ways – like good, restorative sleep, high energy levels, and consistently enjoying nutritious and delicious meals! He maintains his own wellness by cooking, and by squeezing in a run when he can.
