Dr. Christian Castellano (Dr. CJ)
Chiropractor & Co-Owner
Dr. CJ grew up in Auburndale, WI. He attended the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire, and earned degrees in Kinesiology and Business Administration. During his time there, he played on the basketball team as well as coached at the high school level. While Dr. CJ was working in college, he suffered a severe injury to his hand that caused him to lose both feeling and function of it. When he wasn’t progressing with other forms of treatment, he found chiropractic care. With just a couple of months of specific chiropractic care, he regained full feeling and function of his hand! Additionally, he saw benefits in his anxiety, low back pain, knee issues, and his digestion.
Dr. CJ followed his new found passion for chiropractic by attending Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. His passion only grew as he learned about the body’s innate ability to heal itself when nerve interference is removed with chiropractic adjustments. His favorite thing about being a chiropractor is helping people live their lives without drugs or surgery, and getting them back to doing the things they love.
Outside of the office, Dr. CJ spends time hunting, working out, and going for hikes with his dog, Piper. He also enjoys traveling, loves spending time with his family and especially being a dad to his daughter, Josephina Rey, who has been adjusted since she was less than an hour old.

She especially loves caring for newborns and kiddos to help ensure they have a healthy start to life, as she has witnessed directly for her own daughter.
