Dr. Josh Nannen
Dr. Josh Nannen has been seeing a chiropractor since the age of ten. His parents knew the importance of preventative wellness care for the spine and wanted their children to have a great start and development through life! As an East Texas native, he grew up in Jacksonville where he excelled in sports and school and received scholarships to play soccer at St. Edward’s University in Austin, TX where he graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology and a minor in Business. Dr. Josh credits chiropractic care for unleashing the potential within him that allowed him to perform at an elite level both on and off the field.
Meet Dr. Josh Nannen
His love of serving people and his passion for learning how the human body works drew him to Chiropractic as a potential career, and after working for a year as a therapy technician at a chiropractic office, he made the move to Parker University in Dallas.
It was here that Dr. Josh obtained his second bachelor’s degree in Health and Wellness and a Doctorate of Chiropractic degree. He graduated at the top of his class and went to work as an associate doctor in a busy chiropractic office in Frisco, TX gaining as much experience as possible to better treat his patients.
Dr. Josh’s time at school and time as an associate doctor cultivated his love for wholistic wellness Chiropractic care. The purpose of Chiropractic care is to insure proper motion of the spine, thus removing interference to the nerve that exits between the vertebrae. He has developed a passion for making sure the brain can communicate properly with every organ, cell, and tissue of the body through spinal adjusting and basic functional neurology.
Dr. Josh does not go a week without getting adjusted to maintain the integrity of his own spine! Making the transition from athlete, to doctor, to family man persuaded Dr. Josh to make the move back to beautiful East Texas to serve and care for the community he grew up around, in the unique way that he promotes health and healing.
Dr. Josh is dedicated to his family. Outside of the office, they strive to live a homestead lifestyle as much as possible with his wife, Nicole, and their three children, Liam, Gavin and Melody. Together, they are excited to create a community of health, wellness and family at Essential Living Chiropractic. Their family is honored to love and serve the people of Tyler, and the surrounding areas, and to help them reach, and go beyond, their health and wellness goals.
