When I was born doctors predicted I would not to survive past birth because of a rare bone disorder that stunted my growth and caused my bones to be extremely fragile. Despite these challenges, I’ve taken a stand for a quality of life that has reached millions of people around the world, including Sir Richard Branson, President Clinton, and his Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.

I’ve appeared on everything from The Oprah Show to Youtube videos with millions of views. The Biography Channel did an hour feature on my life called, “Three Foot Giant.”

My message has been heard at live events in over 15 countries and 47 states over the past 16 years. My latest book, “Get Off Your But” has swept the US and been released in over a half dozen languages around the world.

As a board certified therapist, I use humor and compassion to develop a fun environment where individuals open their hearts and minds for lasting empowerment to occur.

The body is a self-regulating, self-maintaining organism that is controlled and regulated by the nerve system. If there is an interruption in the nerve system, the body’s ability to function fully is diminished. Every experience you have is through your nerve system. If that interruption occurs the essence of life is diminished. Doctors of Chiropractic are the only health professionals that detect this interruption, called a Vertebral Subluxation Complex. It is our purpose to inspire, promote and celebrate healthy lifestyles by detecting the Subluxation and guiding our practice members to a new experience of life.

Dr. Michael Beattie is a Chiropractor and a geek. Originally going to school to become an optometrist (because at that time there was no future in computers - yes, he is that old), he realized he didn't really want to look in people's eyes for the rest of his life. Then one day his mom came home and said 'what about a Chiropractor?' and that set him on his Chiropractic way.

Since graduating he tried several types of practice - having a multi practitioner office, then joining another multi practitioner office, and then completely scaling it back to going into a solo practice.

While starting Chiropractic practice, he also founded chirowebs.net -  a website design company that focuses on designing custom Chiropractic web sites. Since he is a geek at heart and loving what technology can do, starting a company that empowers, educates and inspires Chiropractors to use technology was a natural fit.

Nowadays if he's not in his office, he's creating websites and coaching Chiropractors on using social media. After all that, you can find him scuba diving into ship wreaks or exploring his love of photography.
