Dr. Jerry Asks some important questions of interest to Fulton residents - Chiropractor Fulton Dr. Jerry Asks...

Do nerves actually get pinched?
Chiropractors recognize two types of nerve disorders involved in vertebral subluxation complex. The least common is a pinched nerve that diminishes nerve supply to an affected organ or tissue. More common is the irritated nerve (facilitative lesion) which overexcites nerve communications to an affected organ or tissue. Chiropractic care has been shown to help with both types.
What are the two things drugs do?
Drugs can either speed up (laxatives, amphetamines, caffeine) a bodily process, or slow down (stomach antacids, sleep aids, antihistamines, muscle relaxers) a bodily process. Chiropractic care can produce the same results, but relies on the intelligence of the body. Chiropractors trust your body. Do you?

Introducing Fulton Chiropractor Dr. Jerry Radas

"Too Much Snow." (New England Weather)

My first experience with chiropractic was when my wife hurt her back shoveling snow.  She could hardly move and wasn't sure what to do.  She does not like taking drugs for symptoms so, after talking to her mother, she decided to make an appointment with a local chiropractor.  On her first visit he examined her and took some x-rays and then, on her second visit, he told her what was wrong and what he could do to help her.  After several adjustments she started feeling better and within a short period of time she was back to her usual self.  I was so intrigued and impressed by what I saw and learned that, about a year or so later, I was preparing to go to chiropractic college.  The natural approach appealed to me along with being able to use my hands and brain to help people.  What a great combination and fit for me!

I went to Logan College of Chiropractic in Chesterfield, Missouri where I received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Human Biology and then a Doctorate in Chiropractic, Summa Cum Laude.

Since that time I have received the following post-graduate certifications:

  • National Board of Chiropractic Examiners
  • Licensed in Maryland
  • Maryland Chiropractic Association-Member
  • Licensed in Missouri
  • Licensed in Virginia
  • Chiropractic Biophysics Technique-Distinguished Fellow

My wife Judy and I - along with our two sons, Jared and Jordan - moved to Maryland after graduation and we opened our own Fulton chiropractic practice in 1994 and we have been serving the Fulton community ever since.  Away from the office I enjoy reading, exercising, working in the yard and remodeling projects around the house, in addition to spending time with my family. 

I get adjusted once a week, try to get three workouts in per week, and constantly read and work to improve my eating habits... all to enhance my own health.  My family and I don't take drugs or medications for symptoms, but we practice what we preach by practicing natural means to maintaining our health.  

Enough about me! How can we help you with today's safe and natural chiropractic care?  Give us a call at Fulton Family Chiropractic so we can help you take your first step towards better health.
