As an athlete in school, Dr. Hitchens quickly grew to understand the importance of prevention and correction of the musculoskeletal system which led her to become a Doctor of Chiropractic. This experience as an athlete as well as her experience as a mother have inspired her to take a special interest in treating athletes, pregnant women, and children. Her passion for helping others return to a pain-free life has shown brightly through her work at ACA over the past several years. She has helped many patients, from 5 days old to 99 years old, with neck pain, low back pain, and headaches attain and maintain a pain-free life. She feels privileged to have helped so many experience the numerous benefits associated with chiropractic care.
