Title: Owner, Chiropractor, Certified Naturopath

Location: Palm Springs, Calif.

Initially, Susan Brennan became involved in her profession because she was in need of an intellectually challenging, emotionally satisfying and physically demanding career. She also wanted to work with people, and becoming a chiropractor allowed her to engage with people in a hands-on approach that effects body, mind and spirit. For the past 31 years, Dr. Brennan has been owner and certified naturopath of her own private practice, demonstrating expertise in gentle chiropractic care and soft tissue techniques.

Dr. Brennan became a Doctor of Chiropractic through the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic in 1984. Dr. Brennan encourages the healing process on all levels through a pragmatic approach, which enables people to be their own best advocate in their health care and in life. She attributes her success to her ability to maintain a strong personal relationship with her patients, who are also many times her best teachers. The highlight of her career has been being able to maintain patients through several generations of care. In five years, Dr. Brennan hopes to continue learning and working, and enjoys the simple things in life, especially biking.

In Dr. Brennan’s words, “I am grateful to all of the people that have supported me during my entire professional life. My patients have been my best teachers and mentors. The human body will always teach us about the experiences in our lives and how they reflect in our physical and physiological being.”
