Dr. Stephanie Colón was born and raised in the heart of Mayagüez, Puerto Rico. Throughout her high school and undergraduate studies, she always loved science, and helping people, but didn’t find a career that resonated with her until she discovered chiropractic. Growing up she stayed very active with sports, including basketball, softball, and track and field. She had a basketball scholarship during her undergrade degree in Puerto Rico where she experienced multiple traumatic injuries because of her participation. However, she became overwhelmingly impressed when she knew how athletes receiving chiropractic care improved their performance and reduced their pain. After doing more research about the chiropractic profession, she was inspired by the benefits of chiropractic, a non-surgical alternative to traditional medicine. She fell in love with Chiropractic and from that moment forward she knew that Chiropractic was a career path she’d like to pursue.
