Seven years after leaving Brookfield, Connecticut to go to college in upstate New York, Brian Conner has finally returned home. And no one is happier for his arrival than his mother. Dr. Brian Conner, D.C. will be joining Healthy Weighs Wellness Center, the practice that his mother, nutritionist Dr. Julie Conner, R.D. opened in Brookfield seventeen years ago. From the very beginning, Brian worked at his family’s wellness center stocking shelves of supplements, greeting patients, and helping staff. During high school and college, he computerized the office and converted the center to electronic medical records. Now, the patients at the center will be able to seek both traditional and gentle chiropractic care from Dr. Brian under the same roof as nutrition counseling.
After graduating from Brookfield High School in 2006, Dr. Brian Conner did his undergraduate studies at SUNY Cortland as a Biology major in the Pre-chiropractic program. He recently received his Doctorate in Chiropractic at New York Chiropractic College in Seneca Falls, New York.
Dr. Brian completed over 1300 hours of comprehensive clinical experiences and outpatient chiropractic services at a variety of medical centers throughout upstate New York including New York Chiropractic College Campus Health Center, Seneca Falls Health Center, St. John Fisher College Health Center in Rochester and Monroe Community Hospital in Rochester. In addition to these rotations, he provided patient care for military veterans and their dependents, at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Bath, New York.
Dr. Brian uses numerous soft tissue therapies when providing chiropractic services to his patients. He is certified in Kinesio Taping, and is presently completing certification in Active Release Technique (ART). In addition to traditional chiropractic care, his focus is gentle chiropractic. Dr. Brian wants all patients to feel comfortable seeking chiropractic services, so he especially caters to those patients who are afraid to do so and want a very gentle approach to their care. Dr. Brian will be working very closely with his mother, staff nutritionist and Registered Dietitian Dr. Julie Conner to provide an integrative approach to a patient’s care. Through a combination of nutrition counseling services, and traditional and gentle chiropractic care, the mission at Healthy Weighs is to maximize a patient’s overall health and well-being.
A 2000 square foot addition is presently being constructed on the Healthy Weighs building to provide adequate space for Dr. Brian’s practice. One room will be dedicated solely for kids so it will be fun to come here! The addition is expected to be completed in the late spring.
