Dear Patients,
Too often it is the doctor who gets all the information on the patient and the patient
gets little information on the doctor and practice. I would like to change that.
My given name is Alan Paul Juel and I am a 4th generation South Dakotan
(my great-grandparents homesteaded near Vermillion). I went to Chiropractic College at
Northwestern College of Chiropractic in Minnesota. I graduated in 1987. My household
includes my wife, Dawn (a nurse), son, Taylor (managing a lab in Brookings), and a cat.
I like to RV camp, ski, listen to music, exercise at Fitness Plus, and collect jokes.
I originally was inspired to be a Chiropractor because in my first career
(as a Physical Therapist), I frequently found that spinal problems were
the basic cause of the 'main' problem. I realized that I would be most
effective when I was trained in balancing the spine.
I have chosen to devote my life to the healing arts because
I know that it is the right thing to do. I enjoy working with people and seeing
them making progress. One of the biggest problems of this era is arthritic
conditions. Chiropractic can reduce the possibility of this. I know that
the principle of Chiropractic (healing energy from within you) is correct.
Chiropractic allows this energy to flow.
I believe with all my heart in how I practice and continually
strive to improve it. I believe that I give an excellent service at a fair fee.
I like assisting people of Rapid City to be as healthy as possible.
The whole purpose of this clinic is to provide a safe and
healing place where I can assist people in their quest for health and wellness.
What makes this practice unique is that I use a combination of methods to deal
with you and your unique situation.
My personal
promise to you is I will devote 100% of my attention and effort to get
to the root of you condition. I will continue to investigate new
methods that will allow me to be more effective. If you should need
help beyond my skills, I promise to refer you to another expert.

To your health, naturally
