Dr. Timothy Card
Dr. Timothy Card graduated from West Chester University in Pennsylvania with a Bachelors of Science degree in Kinesiology with teaching certifications in elementary and secondary education. He taught in the public education system for 7 years before returning to school to earn his doctorate in chiropractic.
Dr. Card attended Life Chiropractic College West in northern California. He was extremely fortunate to have had professors that made and continue to make significant research contributions to the chiropractic profession. He also continued his post-graduate education taking courses in cold laser therapy, extremity adjusting and the Atlas Orthogonal technique. Once Dr. Card learned how accurate and gentle the Atlas Orthogonal technique was, he knew that it would be the best technique to use with his patients for optimal results.
Dr. Card met his wife Dr. Lyndsay Mishko, D.C., while in chiropractic school. After graduating, they made the decision to begin their lives and practices in the Pacific Northwest region where Lyndsay was born and raised. On June 1st, 2011, they had an addition to their family with the birth of their first child, Kaleb Nicholas.
Dr. Card’s chiropractic experience began at the age of 19 when he was taken to a chiropractic office in his small hometown of Whitehouse Station, NJ. He suffered from migraine headaches, which were debilitating and diminishing his quality of life. It wasn’t until 3 months of care when he came to the realization that his migraines had stopped. Since that experience, Dr. Card made it a priority to be under chiropractic care.
While completing his undergraduate degree, he was able to work for a busy chiropractic office as chiropractic assistant and worked closely under Dr. John Woodward for three and a half years. He had a truly inspirational experience watching the progress patients made in Dr. Woodward’s office. Dr. Card became even more convinced everyone should be under chiropractic care to optimize his or her quality of life.
It is Dr. Card’s passion to work closely with his patients and their families providing them with the most beneficial chiropractic care that he can. Dr. Card understands that every person seeks chiropractic care for individual reasons and he strives to personalize each care plan specifically to their needs. Having a background in health and fitness, Dr. Card encourages all of his patients to be proactive in their health outside of the office.
