Introducing Indianapolis Chiropractor Dr. Dexter Nardella
"My introduction to chiropractic wasn’t a miracle, but it was incredible," explains Dr. Nardella. "I’ll never forget that first adjustment. It was as if a huge weight was suddenly lifted from my shoulders."
"My grandfather, Dexter L. Lewis, introduced me to chiropractic. It was at the end of my second year of wrestling when I started to develop terrible neck pain. I couldn’t wrestle like I wanted. At that time, my grandfather took me to see his chiropractor. Looking back, it’s clear to me that experiencing the trust my grandfather had in chiropractic was a turning point in my life."
"Not until much later," continues Dr. Nardella, "a year after my release from the US Navy, did I realize I wanted to be a chiropractor." Dr. Nardella then went on to complete his pre-chiropractic education at SFCC where he studied physiology and anatomy courses. After completing his study there, he was accepted at Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa.
During his four years at Palmer, courses included biochemistry, a major emphasis on anatomy and human physiology, x-ray, diagnosis, chiropractic adjusting techniques and patient care in the Palmer College Public Clinic. After graduating in 1978, Dr. Nardella was invited by friends to establish his practice in Muncie, Indiana.
"I love skeptics," smiles Dr. Nardella. "I still remember the concerns and apprehension I had when I went to the chiropractor for the first time. So I make it a point to explain everything in advance, answer questions and attempt to over communicate. Patients appreciate that."
Dr. Nardella enjoys hiking, canoeing, kayaking, taking long walks. He loves carpentry projects, landscaping, household repairs, most anything done by hand ("except auto mechanics!").
