Meet Dr. Brent Rassi, Doctor of Chiropractic
“My goal is to make sure patients understand that pain should never be accepted as normal. Pain is not normal. Pain is a warning signal something wrong is going on.”
From a 2% Chance to a Second Chance
Dr. Brent’s journey into chiropractic care began with an unexpected and life-changing health crisis. He was diagnosed with viral meningitis, which quickly progressed to encephalitis, putting him into a coma for 5 full days. Doctors only gave him a 2% chance to make a full recovery. His road back was long and demanding, involving chiropractic care, nutrition, physical therapy, occupational therapy, neurology, and more.
Through this journey, Dr. Brent discovered the incredible healing potential of chiropractic care—particularly the compassionate and comprehensive approach at Joseph Health Group, which played a pivotal role in helping him return to health. This experience not only restored his well-being but also inspired his mission to help others overcome pain and reclaim their lives. Today, Dr. Brent has the privilege of practicing in the very same building where his own recovery began.
Gaining an Education in Holistic Spine Care
Dr. Brent received his Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science from St. Ambrose University. He went on to earn his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic, driven by a passion to blend evidence-based medicine with hands-on care. His training and clinical experience have shaped his expertise in advanced therapies designed to help patients achieve lasting relief and improved mobility.
