About Dr. Jacalyn Buettner
Dr. Buettner became interested in chiropractic after sustaining a back injury at age 13. After many years of being told by medical doctors and physical therapists to take medications, do exercises, and learn to live with the pain, she met a chiropractor, Dr. Jon Blossom, who offered her an alternative solution. Chiropractic helped her so much that she knew she wanted to help others the way Dr. Blossom helped her.
This began her journey?she graduated cum laude with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, in March 1985. Having grown up in a small town in Ohio, Dr. Buettner realized her childhood dream of being a big-city career woman, like Mary Tyler Moore, when she opened her office at 450 Sutter, the prestigious medical-dental building in the heart of Union Square.
With more than 36 years of hands-on clinical experience, Dr. Buettner has the ability to tune into a person's body, locate where nerve energy is blocked, and restore energy flow through gentle treatment customized to the individual's needs. This process is similar to turning the power on?a way of activating the body's innate healing potential to bring back a state of balance. Her passion for raising awareness of proper posture and biomechanics for those working at home and on handheld devices is life-changing.
