Meet the Providers at ABA Family Chiropractic
Dr. Michael Pickens
Dr. Pickens decided to pursue a career in health care, because he had a strong desire to help people who were in pain or sick. He specifically chose to become a chiropractor as result of the phenomenal results he experienced through chiropractic care of his own painful injury. “I was amazed at the results. Although I experienced a little pain during the first couple of adjustments, I also experienced almost immediate relief of the pressure I had felt for months. I was adjusted three times in the first week, and by the end of that week, I was able to do squats again. Soon, I was able to surpass the previous weight I was lifting.”
Nancy L. Pickens, RN,
CWOCN, MSNutritional Counseling
Nancy chose to become a registered nurse due to her interest in healing and a desire to help people understand their health problems. Her mother’s work as a public health nurse and her father’s disability related to back surgery were very instrumental in her decision to enter nursing school at the University of Michigan. Her pursuit of functional nutrition as a second career was a gradual process that developed while investigating her son’s health problems and her own affliction with chronic sinusitis. Nancy and Mike’s middle son, Jason, was underweight as an infant with frequent diarrhea, and at age 2½ was diagnosed with celiac disease.
