Aloha! My name is Dr. Haley Ann Nakamura! I grew up here, on the beautiful island of Maui. I’ve spent most of my childhood playing softball, while also enjoying time spent with my family. I graduated from Lahainaluna High School. While there, I focused on basketball and softball. I had the privilege and honor of continuing my softball career at New Mexico State University, while pursuing my degree in biology, hence graduating with a bachelors in 2018. I went on to attend Parker University in 2020. There, I discovered my passion for educating Native Hawaiian’s on how chiropractic care can make an impact on their health. This happened when my own health was at its lowest. After changing my health with the help of an Applied Kinesiology chiropractor, I noticed many similarities of how Hawaiians valued their health (before colonization). With the teachings of chiropractic, and mental wellbeing, I want to be the one to share it with the rest of Hawai’i and take part in redirecting the declining health of our people. As a chiropractor, offering Maui chiropractic care, one of my main goals when treating a patient is to look at their pain/ dysfunction from a global perspective. The founder of Applied Kinesiology, Dr. George Goodheart, looked at a patient’s health using his method called, “The Triad of Health: Physical, Chemical, and Emotional”. I have also adopted this approach when treating patients. I’ll always address a patient’s body from a structural lens, however, if I do see that there are any chemical imbalances that could be hindering their recovery that could be contributing to their dysfunction, I’ll address it as well. The way I brainstorm, evaluate, and adjust patients, comes from the teachings of my mentor, Dr. JJ Gregor in Frisco, TX. He has been a diplomate in Applied Kinesiology since 2001 and has been teaching a 100-hr AK course for over 18 years. I have taken his 100 HR course three times and have spent over another 100 hours attending his adjusting courses over the span of 3 years. In my last trimester of chiropractic school, I interned with Dr. Joe Ford at Model Wellness in Farmers Branch, TX. Dr. Ford has worked with numerous athletes ranging from young kids to professional athletes. While at the clinic, I saw a range of female volleyball players, baseball players, ice skaters and gymnasts, with a combination of red-light laser therapy, soft tissue work, chiropractic adjustments and therapeutic exercises. I graduated from Parker University in April, 2023. Now I have the opportunity to work alongside Dr. Michael and Noah Lebowitz, here in Pukalani. Both doctors are highly revered in the International College of Applied Kinesiology (ICAK). They both have helped thousands of patients get back to optimal health, and have taught thousands of doctors around the world using their method called, “The Lebowitz Protocol” to get to the root-cause of a patient’s issues. While in school I was part of the ICAK club on campus and a part of a couple other clubs focusing on the art of the chiropractic adjustment. When I’m not treating patients at the clinic, I’m either at the beach with my fiancé, Franky, or I’m at the field coaching young-girls softball with my mom and sister.
