“MY MISSION IS TO HELP AS MANY PEOPLE IN MY LIFETIME
AS I CAN... ESPECIALLY CHILDREN!”
A little bit about the office…
Freedman Clinic of Chiropractic was founded by Dr. Jeremiah Freedman and his wife, Dr. Deanna Freedman, in July of 2003. Originally born and raised in Kent, Ohio, Dr. Jeremiah returned to this area after receiving his doctorate degree from Logan College of Chiropractic and then finishing his residency in corrective chiropractic care in St. Louis, Missouri.
Dr. Jeremiah practices a special form of chiropractic that doesn’t just help you to feel better, but has a goal to get to the underlying cause of the problem. By practicing this way and addressing the main issue, the result is not just short-term pain relief, but long-term health and wellness!
The office uses state of the art diagnostic technology and digital x-ray to literally see your problems. Once your health issues are uncovered, Dr. Jeremiah targets them with specific, scientific chiropractic adjustments to get you back on the path to health and pain-free living. It’s his goal to get you functioning at your highest possible health potential!
Dr. Jeremiah chose to locate his practice in Fairlawn, Ohio, after his mom asked him for a chiropractic referral. Although he had many good colleagues in the area, he decided to return to the area to take care of his mother and family. He brought with him his wife, Dr. Deanna, who specializes in nutritional counseling.
Together, these doctors bring a passion for health care to their community. Their message is that the power that made the body, heals the body. And every day, without the use of drugs or surgery, their chiropractic patients experience a level of health and healing that would seem unachievable by most of the medical community. Dr. Jeremiah and Dr. Deanna aren’t surprised by their patients’ miracles. They expect them! They know that the power of healing is within each and every one of us; you just have to know how to unleash it. And that’s what they do every day in their office.
About Dr. Jeremiah
Dr. Jeremiah Freedman was born in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio and raised in Kent, Ohio. His interest in chiropractic began as a child when his family chiropractor took care of all his bumps and bruises. It wasn’t until Dr. Freedman struggled with illness as an adult that his interest in chiropractic flared into a passion. Traditional medical doctors had given up on him and had told him he had to live with his pain, illness and discomfort. That’s when he turned to chiropractic and natural alternatives for help. His chiropractor at the time told him he wasn’t crazy and helped him make a full recovery. There’s been no turning back. Dr. Freedman decided to dedicate his life to helping people discover that there are alternatives to pills, pain, and misery. A graduate of Logan College of Chiropractic in St. Louis, Missouri, Dr. Freedman opened his own office back home b “My goal is to be the doctor that people can go to when they’ve lost all hope. I want to be there for them, their children, and their children’s children.”
What is Wellness?
Wellness defined—
- The degree to which we experience health and happiness.
- All cells functioning at 100%.
Health - - According to the World Health Organization, Health is “a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” Wellness has become a buzzword in today’s society, especially around here. Everyone is trying to sell you some sort of snake oil, pill, or wonder drug to give you “the missing piece to my health and happiness.” The truth is, wellness is now an everyday term that is largely misunderstood and misused. Most people think that if they feel good and nothing hurts, then they are well. Nothing could be further from the truth!
Studies show that 75-95% of early deaths in the U.S. are preventable. Poor lifestyle choices are directly accountable for 99.8% of sickness and disease in our country! Yes, 99.8%! Bad genes and bad luck having nothing to do with most illnesses!
After studying Wellness and Chiropractic as a lifestyle, here is what I know. In order to help someone become healthy, you must first change how they think about their lifestyle choices and what health means. New research has shown beyond a shadow of a doubt that a properly functioning spine is ABSOLUTELY needed for your nervous system to do what it is designed and programmed to do. In today’s society, chiropractic care has become a must for various reasons. Sedentary living, toxic lifestyle choices, and birth trauma all cause your spine and nervous system to function less than optimally. And we are the ONLY profession trained to improve how your nervous system works through specific adjusting techniques.
Wellness Chiropractors are the most qualified of any professional when it comes to wellness…our post doctorate education is designed especially for it! How so, you ask? Well, it is because we look at your body through a different paradigm. (What’s a paradigm? A paradigm is the lens through which you view the world; a philosophical view which guides each and every decision we make). Okay, so back to how we are different.
Here is the difference between medicine and true Wellness Chiropractic: Allopathic vs Chiropractic Paradigm
What is Chiropractic?
You have most likely been taught to think that chiropractic is some kind of treatment for back and neck pain…etc. It’s true, we do see a number of patients suffering with a variety of such problems. More importantly though, is the recognition that chiropractic is much more than the simple relief of pain. You may be amazed to learn that most problems that surface in the adult years actually start during the birth process because it’s so traumatic, or everyday childhood experiences. How many of you have been through this?
That is the reason we place so much emphasis on children and their growth and development. Your child’s spine is his or her lifeline. Running through it is the spinal cord carrying billions of messages which make the body function correctly. It is like having your own internal Internet! It is vital to make certain that this “information highway” has no obstacles so that all messages sent by the brain get where they are going. If there is an obstruction in this highway, then the body starts to malfunction, like a car broken down on the freeway obstructs the flow of traffic. This can be a serious threat to life and health.
Chiropractors call these obstructions “Vertebral Subluxations” – misalignments of some of the spinal vertebrae (spinal bones).
You need to remember that the body is a self-healing organism – it is designed to heal itself. This means that it has the ability to heal and recover, no matter what the condition – as long as that process is not interfered with. For an example, you get a brand new liver every month or so. Yes, liver cells die and are replaced by new ones. Your red blood cells die every four months and are replaced by new cells – even your skeleton changes approximately every seven years. In other words, your body is designed to heal, and it follows a very exact program to be able to do this.
That program is controlled by your nervous system. As long as your nervous system is able to effectively communicate with every tissue, cell, organ, and nook and cranny of your body, you should have the very best health possible. If your nervous system Is not able to communicate with your cells, tissues, etc., your body will not have the ability to do what it is designed to do. We call this “malfunction”. It can be very serious. Our mission is to eliminate this communication breakdown and restore law and order!
It’s that simple!
There seems to be a lot of confusion out there regarding that funny word “Wellness”. Most people have the notion that it refers to “feeling well.” In other words, when you feel well, you are in fact healthy. Right? Wrong! Wellness is not related to how your body adapts to the everyday stresses of life and your own internal workings. If it can adapt and handle everything that is going on inside you with nothing interfering with that process, then you are in fact healthy. You are well.
As chiropractors, our mission is to have your body function on that level. This is accomplished by eliminating any interference to that function. If any vertebrae in your spine is subluxated, it will literally short-circuit a part of your nervous system. Traditional Chiropractic care is designed to maximize normal function and keep it that way!
It just makes sense!
kids & Chiropractic
"Chiropractic care for my child? Why? His back doesn't bother him."
Chiropractors hear this all the time. All parents appreciate the importance of having check-ups for the child’s teeth, eyes, ears, nose, and throat, but when it comes to a spinal check-up, they do not know it is necessary.
Regular nervous system check-ups for your child can be some of the most important check-ups in their life. Many people are surprised when they hear that children can be helped with chiropractic care. The truth is, chiropractic care is vital for a child’s proper development. Just as adults need a properly functioning nervous system, free of interference, so do children. You may not be aware of this but traumatic birth syndrome is actually very common and often unrecognized as the cause of numerous health problems. It’s also interesting to note that only chiropractors are properly trained to detect and correct the subtle, yet very significant misalignments and nervous system imbalances that can occur either in the womb or during a “normal” hospital birth. “Normal” obstetrical procedures involve pulling the newborn baby out by the head. Your child was meant to be gently pushed and guided out, not pulled! The resulting spinal subluxations can be the cause of newborn health complaints like colic, ear infections, and allergic reactions, even poor appetite and unexplained crying.
Also, childhood is a very physical time. The falls, accidents, jumping and running are all part of childhood and they can cause spinal subluxations. How many times does a little one walking for the first time take a spill? It would be wise for all parents to have their children’s spine checked regularly.
The spine is the lifeline of the body. Inside the spinal column is the spinal cord containing billions of nerve fibers traveling to every part of your child’s body, sending messages and energy from the brain regulating your child’s health. If there is any nerve blockage along the spinal cord then a state of dis-ease will develop. Dis-ease causes a generalized weakening of your child’s body which can manifest in your child as a lowered resistance to illnesses such as colic or ear infection as well as hyperactivity or other behavioral disorders.
Won’t it hurt them? Chiropractic adjusting techniques are modified to fit a child’s size and weight. The force needed to adjust an infant or a child is so little that infants are often adjusted while sleeping and do not even wake up. Parents who have their children adjusted often report that their children seem healthier than other children their own age.
“My Mission is to help as many people in my lifetime as I can – especially children!”
Chiropractic helps your child be the best that they can be!

Why Chiropractic May Help You!
So, let’s talk about you for a moment, and I need you to really get this:
YOUR health is based on four very important principles, and everything we do in this office is based on these four principles:
1. Your body is a self-healing organism. It is designed to heal itself! Did you know that? For example, you get a brand new liver every month. All the cells in your liver die and are replaced with brand new cells every 24 days! Amazing!
Every four months all of your red blood cells are wiped out and your body creates a completely new set. Incredible!
You get a completely new stomach lining every 5 days.
Your taste buds are replaced every 11 days.
At night when you go home and take off your clothes before bed, thousands of dead skin cells float to the floor.
The reason I am telling you this is to emphasize that your body is in a constant state of change and repair. And in order to do this, it follows a very exact program. So why are you not following your program? Your body is not doing what it is programmed and designed to do. And that is absolutely not OK. Think about this for a moment: your body is not doing what it is suppose to be doing. Why is that?
2. Your Nervous System is the “thing” that runs this program. It is like a computer central command center that runs you. As long as your nervous system is able to communicate effectively with every organ, tissue, cell, nook and cranny of you, you should have the very best health you have ever had in your life. We call this normal.
3. If something interferes with the function of your nervous system so that it is not able to control your body the way it should, your body will not be able to do what it is designed and programmed to do – it will do its own thing…and here is where all your problems come from.
4. My job as a Chiropractor is to simply restore law and order! I’m the new Sheriff in town! I want your body to function the way it was designed and programmed to…And I want you to be healthy for a LIFETIME. That’s it.

Why my Office is Different
Many of my patients have told me that I am an amazing healer…that I’m the best. I have an athlete’s sense of how a body performs and an intuitive ability to read and understand a broad array of health concerns that can affect you and your children.
I am very trustworthy and what I say makes sense! Kids love me; moms and dads think I am a kick; I give every patient my steadfast commitment and I promise to form relationships with you and your family for years to come.
I am a perfectionist when it comes to helping you understand and obtain overall health and wellness for you and your family. I am continually learning and perfecting my skills as a chiropractor, a healer, and I “walk the talk”. It is because of this that I am comfortable in saying that my office and I are simply the best.
When you walk through the doors of our beautiful office, the first thing you will see is my wonderful assistant, Melissa, smiling at you. You’ll hear the sound of children giggling as they play in our kid’s play area. Our patients always tell us that the office “just feels like home.”
As for your examination, it is comprehensive and thorough. It is unlike anything you’ve ever experienced. You will learn how your past health and lifestyle have created the health (or lack of health) that you have today. We will explain what is going on with you in a way that is totally understandable.
