Dr. George Stanton, D.C. - Chiropractic Physician
Dr. George Stanton is a National Board Certified Chiropractor who graduated from Cleveland University- Kansas City with his Bachelors of Human Biology and a Doctorate of Chiropractic. He has post-doctoral training in Chiropractic Plus Kinesiology (CPK), Acupuncture, Sacral-Occipital Technique (SOT), and Functional Medicine.
Dr. George found the alternative health world through his own journey of fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, food sensitivities and IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome). It was only after looking back at his health history in combination with persistent research, clinical training, and the right set of practitioners who asked the right questions, that he figured out the root to his health issues. His reprieve came after realizing that, like most others with chronic issues, it was not just ONE issue but multiple body systems, toxins, and infections driving his symptoms.
Dr. George came to learn that living in a moldy house in college initiated and compounded most of his symptoms. After his immune system was weakened, the foundation was laid for pathogens to take control. Countless routine blood tests came back as “perfect”, yet he suffered a myriad of chronic symptoms. As years went by, routine labs began to show prediabetes and stage 1 kidney failure (despite a good diet and regular exercise).
In the end, additional clinical tests and assessments zeroed in on the problem: a combination of parasites, mold/fungus, toxic metals, Lyme with coinfections, and micronutrient deficiencies that were taxing his system and destroying his mitochondria. As he addressed each issue, his health recovered and his symptoms improved. Joint pain resolved, IBS was gone, food sensitivities lessened in severity with the ability to eat certain foods again, and brain fog and energy improved drastically.
Today, Dr. George enjoys pushing the limits. He was a Crossfit coach for 5 years, and continues to participate in Crossfit along his journey to optimal health. Not only does he want to be healthy, he wants to explore anything and everything to help exceed his own expectations for his performance and his patients! He is determined to help others in their journey to optimize their health and rediscover how true health feels.
