Dr. David J. Jenkins, D.C.

Dr. David Jenkins was born in Austin, Minnesota and raised in DeLand, FL.

Dr. Jenkins chose to be a Chiropractor from personal experience as a chiropractic patient. His journey began in his teens, "Growing up I originally wanted to become a dentist to follow in my Dad's footsteps and take over his office. But growing up as a beach lifeguard and longtime Surfer I began noticing some back pain from running on the beach. My Dad informed me that I should visit his friend that was a local Chiropractor in DeLand for help. I started receiving Chiropractic Adjustments and began noticing great relief with the back pain and found out how effective Chiropractic Care was so at that point I began the journey to become a Chiropractor."

Dr. Jenkins moved to Missouri to attend Logan College of Chiropractic in Chesterfield, MO. After graduating in 2003, he moved back to Florida to be near his family and friends and to take his Chiropractic boards.

Another pivotal step in Dr. Jenkins' journey happened just before taking the boards, he explains, "my Dad who was 52 and very healthy had a sudden stroke, became paralyzed, and had to retire from Dentistry. After his initial hospital experience, he began rehabilitation with physical therapy and Acupuncture treatment. It was at that time I found the true value of Acupuncture. After experiencing my Dad's recovery I was very interested in gaining more knowledge, training, and experience to become certified in Acupuncture. In 2005, I graduated from the International Academy of Medical Acupuncture in Carefree, Arizona, and began my journey in helping patients heal thru Acupuncture, Chiropractic, and Rehabilitation."

After practicing several years in Orlando, Dr. Jenkins had the opportunity to join in the practice of an Orlando Orthopedic Surgeon. He gained over 5 years experience there while running 2 offices helping patients recover from injuries related to Auto Accidents, Sports Injuries, Acute trauma, and general neck and back pain.

Dr. Jenkins also has post Graduate training and over 8 years experience practicing Acupuncture helping patients with Allergy Elimination, Smoking Cessation, Weight Reduction, pain management, headaches, neck and back pain relief, and pain relief in the hands and feet.

Dr. Jenkins has many years of experience treating patients with Spinal Disc injuries using spinal decompression and spinal traction, spinal rehabilitation, core strengthening rehabilitation, Acupuncture, Chiropractic Adjustments, and "MUA" Manipulation Under Anesthesia.

Dr. Jenkins has advanced experience in rehabilitation with patients following surgery, fracture rehabilitation, severe neck and back injuries including cervical and lumbar disc herniations, and advanced experience including full rehabilitation on patients with sports and Auto Accident injuries. Dr. Jenkins is also well trained in several of the latest techniques in Auto Injury rehabilitation, Chiropractic, Rehabilitation, Spinal Decompression, and Acupuncture.

Dr. Jenkins has graduated from several post graduate programs including studying at the prestigious SRISD (Spine Research Institute of San Diego) in Whiplash and Brain Traumatology headed by Dr. Arthur Croft one of the most well known researchers on Auto Accident related Injuries. Here Dr. Jenkins acquired a wealth of knowledge on Auto Injuries, Accident Reconstruction, Treatment for Auto Accident related injuries, Biomechanics, and Medicolegal forensics.

Today Dr. Jenkins has over 15 years Chiropractic experience helping others and has owned and been at Seminole Chiropractic Center for over 6 years.

Seminole Chiropractic Center's approach to patient care is putting the patient first by listening to the patient’s needs to find out how to serve them best and then custom tailor and treatment plan to serve the patient best for efficient, fast relief so that the patient may return to their busy active lifestyle that they once enjoyed.

Because the neck is a complicated and intricate structure that extends out to other structures in the body, a comprehensive exam and X-rays are typically needed to determine the exact cause of your discomfort.

Bear in mind, too, that an injury or stress in one area often leads to additional problems in another-like a kind of "domino effect." For instance, pain in your shoulder often radiates to the neck area, and will only worsen as it continues to go untreated.

Here are a few of the most common causes of neck pain:

Injury - If you've been injured in an auto, work, or recreational accident, get help at once. Since injury can affect muscles, ligaments, bones or discs around the neck, it's important that you get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan (if required) before the dominos begin to fall.

Awkward or Incorrect Sleeping Positions - If you fall asleep in an awkward or uncomfortable sleeping position, it can wreak havoc on your neck. (Dr. Name) can help you to get the kinks out, while providing you with valuable advice on how to sleep so that your pain does not return.

Emotional and Physical Stress - Stress in life can cause muscle tension and set off a vicious cycle of pain. As muscles contract, fatigue can cause muscle aches or pain. Pain and discomfort can lead to sleeplessness with its associated problems such as irritability, depression, and reduced immune function. And so the problems perpetuate.

Diagnosable Problems, such as osteoporosis, slipped disc, and scoliosis - Occasionally, your neck pain may be caused by diagnosable disorders. The sooner these problems are identified and treated, the sooner you'll be on the road to recovery. It's important that you seek proper professional care to determine the cause of your pain and begin any necessary treatment.

Common treatments of neck pain include everything from neck braces to surgery. REMEMBER: Pain is NOT the natural state of the body, nor is it a "normal" side effect of aging. Pain is the body's way of telling you something is wrong! The best solution is to identify the cause of your pain and correct it-not simply mask the symptoms.

Any of the following treatments can be effective, but most have associated risks of which you should be aware. For this reason it is best to consult with a trusted healthcare practitioner, especially if pain is severe or prolonged.

Rest - Avoid overusing the painful area for the first few days after an injury. Then slowly reintroducing exercise and movement will begin to speed recovery.

Ice - Immediately after an injury, ice your neck for about 15 minutes at least 3 to 4 times a day to reduce or prevent inflammation and swelling. If pain continues, see a healthcare professional.

Drugs - Non-prescription pain relievers such as acetaminophen (i.e. Tylenol) or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or NSAIDS (i.e. ibuprofen) may be helpful for temporary relief, but are NOT advisable for chronic pain or long term use. Tylenol has recently been linked to liver disease and ibuprofen to bleeding ulcers. Doctors often prescribe stronger drugs for pain, but of course, these have other risky side effects including mental or physical impairment, behavioral effects, and addiction. Extreme caution should be used when undergoing any chemical therapy for pain.

Surgery - Most neck pain problems can be treated effectively without costly and risky surgeries. Doctors agree that neck surgery should be utilized only in certain rare cases, and only after conservative treatment has been exhausted. For this reason, other more natural, less invasive treatments should be explored before choosing surgical intervention.

Chiropractic - Chiropractic is a natural form of treatment that operates on the premise that the body is designed to heal itself. Chiropractors actually have more training than a traditional general or family care physician. Chiropractors use gentle spinal adjustments to correct spinal misalignment and relieve pressure on sensitive nerves. They often combine this form of treatment with other non-invasive modalities such as muscle stimulation, ultrasound, massage, and physical therapy to relieve symptoms and rebuild core strength and maintain permanent correction. The chiropractor's goal is always to correct the problem, not simply hide the symptoms.

I used to go here for two years straight that I was pregnant. With being pregnant, Dr. Jenkins and his staff took extreme measures to make sure I was in good hands with myself and my pregnancies. Very cautious and great measures taken to make sure my pin was reduced, I could hold out comfortable pregnancies, and safe for the well being of my unborn children and I. Always left there feeling a ton less, because my body was carrying the weight properly after my adjustments. And the staff treated my children and I like family! To say I was impressed is an understatement.

Before I came to Dr. Jenkins I was in such pain that I could barely move. Dr. Jenkins was so patient with me and even spent extra time working on my back to improve my condition. Dr. Jenkins also did a great job explaining everything to me and educating me on what was going on. I cannot express how much he helped me and how amazing I feel! I would recommend Dr. Jenkins over and over again!! I also appreciated that I didn't have to wait long for my appointment like I find myself having to do at other doctor office, which works great with a busy schedule. The girls at the front desk were always very helpful and nice as well. Thank you Dr. Jenkins for all of your help!
