Dr. Jake Davidson
Dr. Davidson has made it part of his life’s mission to share the 5 Essentials to each and every family in his community and the surrounding area. He has been inspired by some of the top leading researchers and chiropractors that the chiropractic profession has to offer. Alongside of his required yearly Continuing Education hours, and his morning research routines, he also spends three weekends a year staying up-to-date on health and wellness.
Dr. Davidson found his passion and decided he wanted to become a Doctor of Chiropractic once he lost one of his greatest mentors and life coaches, his grandfather. Growing up and watching his grandfather suffer from an array of ailments, he came to realize there was a major flaw in the health care system. Dr. Jake watched his grandfather suffer from disc herniations, kidney stones, emphysema, COPD, neuropathy in both legs, and more. By age 55 he had gone through two major surgeries, and at age sixty-five he had a heart ablation procedure. Dr. Davidson entered chiropractic school in the fall of 2012. In 2014 his grandfather was diagnosed with lung cancer. By this time Dr. Davidson was half way through chiropractic school when he really began to learn and understand how the body works. He was learning that true health comes from within and not externally. After a discussion with his grandfather he convinced him to see a local chiropractor. His grandfather later called him and said, “for the first time in his life he felt like a doctor listened to him and was not concentrated on symptoms alone, but the body as a whole. For years my grandfather was told he was healthy when he truly wasn’t, for years he was given a pill or put under a knife to cover up a symptom. Not one time in his entire life did one doctor ever check the one system that controls all other systems in the body, the nervous system.” Dr. Davidson has since lost his Grandfather and after his passing has looked at his x-rays. “After seeing how his spine looked I knew there was never a chance of him living a healthy and abundant life.” Dr. Davidson realized in that moment that nothing else matters in life without your health. Dr. Davidson explains “ our healthcare system is failing because we are not getting to the root cause of everyone’s problems. That is why we are sick, suffering, and dying earlier than we should. This is why our children are sicker than ever and people are seeking out and asking questions. My mission is to change this community and make Overland Park the healthiest community in the nation through the 5 Essentials. I want every man, woman, child, and family to know and understand where true health comes from and how to obtain it.”
