Chiropractic Garden City NY Christina Ann

Christina Ann

Hi my name is Christina-Ann, I’ve been a part of the Body By Design team since 2010. My journey with Body By Design started as a patient. I was in a rear end collision back in 2009 when my car was stopped on the parkway and a car hit me from behind. Soon after I was experiencing severe headaches every single day, not knowing any better at the time I was taking up to 9 extra strength tylenol every single day, drinking caffeinated beverages because someone told me that would help with the headaches. The headaches never got better and seemed to be getting worse.

Finally I was introduced to Dr. Ryan, he was the first doctor that actually sat down with me listened to what was going on, did a complete evaluation including x-rays and then spent time going over and explaining exactly what was wrong with me and empowering me to make the changes necessary to better my current state of health. It made so much sense, my spine was completely out of alignment putting pressure on my nervous system causing my severe headaches. I immediately started Corrective Chiropractic Care to fix my spine.

Dr. Ryan also taught me about proper nutrition and the rest was history. My headaches completely resolved, throughout this process I began to realize that there are other people out there exactly like me, struggling, in pain, not knowing where to turn. I was led to pursue my passion to help and guide others toward holistic natural healthcare so they too can learn that health comes from the inside out not outside in. All that I have learned here in the office has enabled me to be a loving wife and mother to my family. A quick fun fact about me is that I love to travel, exercise and spend time with my family.

Chiropractic Garden City NY Amanda

Amanda

Hi my name is Amanda! I joined the Body By Design Team January of 2019. I was born and raised right on Long Island just a few minutes away from our Garden City office. 4 years ago my better half and I moved from Long Island to San Antonio Texas, I was running away from the snow..lol. For a large part of my working career I was able to work with and for one of Long Island’s best hospitals. My time at St. Francis taught me to value, honor and care for patients as well as work side by side with some of the greatest doctors in the world.

My time with them has given me all of the essential tools and skills needed to help Body By Design expand their vision and grow their mission of helping and serving the New York community by teaching, educating and caring for as many people as we possibly can. I am so happy and blessed that I am able to continue my journey in the healthcare field and make a huge impact in my hometown all the way from Texas.

Just a few more quick and fun facts about me, I am a brand new mom to an AMAZING little boy named Cameron, he is the best gift I have ever been blessed with <3. I love dogs (I have 2 of them) so 3 kids in total : ) I love the beach even though it’s not as easy to get to and I just love to help people!

Hi! I'm Mara, a full-time college student and member of the Body by Design Team. My interests include reading, hiking, movie watching, and concert-going, among many other things.
