Meet Dr. T.J. Poelking

Born and raised in Kettering, Ohio Dr. Poelking attended the University of Louisville from 1987-1991 where he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Biology.

 

As a scholarship athlete, Dr. Poelking learned first hand the affects of sports on the body. Having a passion for the medical field and to help others, Dr. Poelking learned the importance of spinal health when suffering an injury during his third season as a linebacker for the Cardinals.

 

It was at that time when he understood how important it was to treat the “cause” of the problem, not just its effect. As a pre-med major, Dr. Poelking changed directions to chiropractic.

 

During the next four years, Dr. Poelking spent his time in Davenport, Iowa attending Palmer College of Chiropractic earning his doctorate. It was there where he focused his attention on understanding the human frame, and it’s association with the nervous system.

 

In February of 1995, Dr. Poelking received his license to practice in the state of Ohio and has been in private practice since that time. Dr. Poelking is board certified by the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners and a member of both state and local chiropractic associations.

 

With over a decade of experience, Dr. Poelking enjoys treating patients with an emphasis on correcting the cause of their problem, not just the symptom. He has extensive knowledge regarding injuries sustained as a result of auto collisions and is a certified expert in auto crash reconstruction.

 

With a love of teaching, Dr. Poelking lectures several times per year on specific subjects ranging from: Ergonomics in the workplace, Get Fit While You Sit, Spinal Hygiene, and Ligamentous Injuries as a result of Auto Collisions.
