Dr. Trunell’s journey in chiropractic care begin when her mother had a car wreck and started seeing a chiropractor for migraine headaches and pain, but it was the birth of her first born that truly drove her passion for chiropractic. Over the span of her pregnancy , she was diagnosed with gestational diabetes: given insulin and placed on a restricted diet. The pregnancy was difficult and stressful due to school, home issues and all the medical interventions given.
Dr. Trunell was never educated on the true foundation of chiropractic. Her son’s birth was very traumatic. Following induction, four hours of active labor and delivering a baby who was delivered unexpectedly falling out on the table because no one thought labor had progressed so rapidly; many challenges followed her son. Colics, constipation, ear infections the Perfect Storm! Dr. Trunell was introduced to chiropractic after her son’s tubes did not cure the ear infection and a horrible allergic reaction to medication given to him. This ignited a passion for chiropractic in Dr. Trunell’s life. Dr. Trunell was given her son back through chiropractic and made the best decision ever…. To be able to serve individuals through chiropractic and allow them to live to their full potential. Dr. Trunell knew providing chiropractic care to her son would keep him healthy and well because everything else had failed.
Today, Dr. Trunell serves her community fearlessly changing lives one subluxation at a time and knows that allowing a child the opportunity to function at optimal levels makes for the best life possible for that child. Dr. Trunell has raised 3 children who are all chiropractic babies and has truly seen the difference chiropractic has made in their lives.
