Dr. Skaggs has undergone rigorous training related to spine and trauma and is now formally qualified to either diagnose or manage all spine cases.
According to Dr. Mark Studin, the clinical Director for the Academy of Chiropractic, “Dr. Skaggs joins an elite group of Chiropractors nationally that has completed an extensive program in triaging the injured, MRI spine interpretation, spinal orthopedics, early detection for stroke, spinal bio mechanical engineering and accident reconstruction for motor vehicle accidents. This recognition, which represents a level of clinical training, certifies that Dr. Skaggs is the best of the best through clinical excellence and I am proud to add him as our newest member.”
Dr. Studin continues “as research evolves, the current scientific literature verifies that chiropractic, when utilized as the first provider significantly reduces disability in the workplace, overall pain, prevents recurring injuries and improves function in almost every aspect of life. Equally important, the scientific literature concludes that when chiropractic is considered as a first option for spine care, the need and use of opiates decreases, which contributes to help eradicate the opiate crisis in our society.”
