Introducing Betty

At the age of 14, I spent the summer bed ridden with a ruptured disc. It was so severe I could not walk. I had been scheduled for surgery by the new orthopedic surgeon in town. He told my parents it was the only way I would walk again. A neighbor recommended chiropractic. I was carried into Dr. Donald Bowen’s office. After five days of care I could walk on my own. Obviously surgery was not necessary.

My chiropractor became my father-in-law. I married his son Dr. Robert E. Bowen, who also became a doctor of chiropractic. Throughout the years working in our office I have seen many miracles. Two of our children became chiropractic physicians.

I love this profession and I love helping people. Chiropractic will always be part of my life.

Hobbies and Activities: When I am not at the office. I love to walk the beach. There I find peace and tranquility. It refreshes and energizes me for the road ahead. I also enjoy supporting my grandsons at their basketball games.

Dr. John  Asks some important questions of interest to Stuart residents - Chiropractor Stuart Dr. John Asks...

Why is a "slipped disc" unlikely?
Separating each spinal vertebra is a disc. Its fibrous outer ring holds in a jelly-like material. Because of the way a disc attaches to the spinal bones above and below it, it can't actually "slip." However, a disc can bulge, tear, herniate, thin and collapse. But it can't slip.
What's the difference between chiropractic and medicine?
Medical treatment focuses on the disease or the symptom. Chiropractic focuses on the person with the disease or the symptom. Medical treatment usually involves changing blood chemistry. Chiropractic involves restoring nervous system integrity. Medical doctors prescribe medicine. Chiropractors adjust the spine—a common source of nervous system interference.
