CHIROPRACTOR/OWNER

As a child Dr. Sarah Kalani Wharton struggled through allergies, asthma, and severe growing pains. As she grew up, those symptoms worsened into Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS), torticollis, low back disc herniations, and various other sports injuries.

Her first chiropractic experience was when she was a teenager. She started going to a chiropractor to help her recover from a knee injury from soccer. She was surprised that not only did her knee feel and function better, so did everything!

In a world dominated by pharmaceutical corporations and lifetime sentences of taking pills, one prescription eventually leading to another, chiropractic just made sense. The spine houses and protects the central nervous system and the central nervous system works in coherence with every system and cell of the body. [LIGHT BULB TURNED ON!!!]

Chiropractic is safe, it is natural, and there are no poisoning side effects that medication promises.

Dr. Sarah received her undergraduate degree from the College of Charleston and her doctorate from Sherman College of Chiropractic. Because chiropractic isn’t a “one-size-fits-all”, her techniques vary depending on the individual and include spinal and extremity assessments and adjustments.

When not happily adjusting people in the office, you can find her running long distance, on the yoga mat, walking her dog, sunning at the beach or simply enjoying Charleston, the most beautiful town in the USA.

In 2013 Vanessa and her husband Kevin moved to Charleston, to start their lives together.
