New Braunfels Chiropractor, Dr. Vanessa Vajdos

"I knew drugs were not the answer!"

After many years of running professionally, Dr. Vajdos won the 1980 Houston marathon and was on her way to the 1981 World Championships when she woke up in pain and was in danger of not being able to run. She first went to a top orthopedic surgeon that prescribed drugs as the solution. Because she had practiced as a Doctor of Pharmacy for many years and knowing alternatives did exist, Vanessa knew drugs were not a healthy, long term solution to her issue with pain and her up coming race. So, determined to get answers and relief, she rushed into her first chiropractic treatment and as a result placed 10th in the World Championships that year. Needless to say, she was hooked!

Growing increasingly frustrated with the "drug" culture in medicine and after a personal recovery from injury through good chiropractic treatment, Dr. Vajdos realized that being a chiropractor would enable her to help people reach optimum health naturally rather than using harmful drugs to treat symptoms. Now she tells anyone who will listen, she has found her true calling, Wellness.

My father, Joseph Vajdos, graduated from the University of Texas A&M with a degree in agriculture and so as a young girl I learned the basic of farming which has turned into a love in my life.
