Dr. Chris Kelsch is originally from Bismarck, North Dakota. It was when he was in high school that he first had a sports injury. It was during his soccer season that year when he started to barely be able to sit in class because his lower back hurt so much. He saw his first chiropractor then and was amazed that he never missed a single game or practice afterwards. He also noticed that his asthmatic symptoms improve dramatically after his chiropractic adjustments. He has not had a puff of his asthmatic inhaler since first seeing the chiropractor. He was hooked after this on chiropractic.
Following graduation from St. Mary’s Central High School in 1997 he went to North Dakota State University in Fargo, ND. He then went on to Northwestern College of Chiropractic in Minneapolis, MN where he earned his Doctor of Chiropractic and Bachelor of Science in Human Biology.
Following graduation from chiropractic school, Dr. Kelsch successfully owned his own practice in Fargo, North Dakota for 6 years. It was during this time that he gained extra knowledge and expertise in rehabilitation, myofascial release, and nutrition. He noticed that his patients that ate right, exercised regularly, and had regular chiropractic care were far healthier than those who didn’t. Dr. Kelsch tries to practice what he preaches.
Dr. Kelsch joined the Valley Wide Health Centers team in 2010. He is an experienced Chiropractic Physician who treats many common injuries and conditions. Some of the things he regularly treats include but are not limited to: neck pain, headaches, back pain, pregnancy related back pain, auto and work accidents, sports injuries, arthritis pain, and disc injuries.
