The Spring Lake Chiropractor to see - Chiropractor Spring Lake

Introducing Dr. Gene Gamet of Spring Lake

Hello! My name is Dr. Gene Gamet, after years of suffering with chronic headaches, asthma and heat/cold intolerance, I also developed excruciating back pain. I did go to see a medical doctor and an orthopedic surgeon and then later on a neurologist. These professionals were of no help to me. I felt alone and without hope during my late teen years, because I had always been athletic and was searching for what could bring me back to real health and fitness.

I met a chiropractor while in college and I immediately could see that the principles they were teaching were what I had been searching for. After several months of intensive care I started to have a favorable change, but I realized that the years without chiropractic care from when I was very young left me aware of the level of my problems. I then realized it would take a very long time and in the beginning I did not know if I would ever get back to where I wanted to be with my health.

After several years of chiropractic care I got within 80% of where I wanted to be and was so excited that I decided to dedicate myself to the pursuit of chiropractic. I graduated with a four year degree in Pre-Med. and then went on to chiropractic school. I was astonished how  each year I continued to get better! It took another six years of regular care before my body was able to heal from the inside out and I could truly be me again. I missed so much, but because of my ordeal I can now bring so much to an individual who truly wants to regain their health.

I began my college experience at Lansing Community College, in the pre-engineering core curriculum. I always did well with structures and mathematics, so this seemed like a logical place to start. I met my first chiropractor while attending this college and this became the time period of my first adjustment. I picked up a two-year degree with an engineering emphasis; however it is here that I decided to follow the medical field. I began classes at Michigan State University where I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in pre-med and physiology.

My health continued to get better and better and so did my understanding of chiropractic. I then had no choice other than to dedicate myself to teaching and administering chiropractic care. I went to the professional school of Life University in Atlanta, Georgia, where I then graduated with a Doctorate in Chiropractic.

I have since been studying the art, science and philosophy of chiropractic. I graduated in 2001, but have been truly studying chiropractic all my life. Life experience is what has brought me to this point.

I have been studying many techniques, and the "Gonstead" technique is my preferred. It stresses neutral position adjusting, which means "NO neck twisting".

When I was young and suffering I saw several health professionals and none of them ever mentioned chiropractic to me or my parents. The reason why is because no one understands what chiropractic is about. Today only about 8% of the population visits a chiropractor, even less than that ever fully understand the great benefits of chiropractic care. There is an increasing amount of scientific data out there but people are unaware of how and where to find it. I feel it is my duty to help everyone learn and understand the benefits of chiropractic care. When we were young and our belief system was wide open, we were taught to brush our teeth or our teeth would become decayed with dental cavities. As a result, today we know without a doubt we need to take care of our teeth. We as a society have failed to teach our children and loved ones how to take care of our spine and spinal related structures such as the most important one, the nerve system and because of that we are unaware of the decaying effect brought about from day to day stresses and pressures. Proper and specific adjusting can assure that your body is not decaying inside, just like your teeth. Once the people of this nation fully understand chiropractic then they will demand our government to make available for all children to be under some form of chiropractic care by a licensed Doctor of Chiropractic. Thereby that full function will be achieved. This can only happen if people are made aware of the facts. Education is paramount.

I enjoy anything to do with the outdoors, such as tennis, bicycling and the beach, etc.  I exercise daily which normally includes stretching, weight-lifting, and running.

I prefer to be examined and adjusted at least twice a week. If I could have received care as a child, bi-monthly visits would probably have been sufficient. Eating whole foods is great especially organic food if you can get it, but I also have a weakness for chocolate and cake. I believe if you workout regularly than why not occasionally enjoy. Habits create your health, such as regular chiropractic care, eating smart and exercising, good friends and spiritual growth.
