In this episode, I chat with BJJ practitioner Dr. Christian Nelson about the benefits of Chiropractic care and other holistic modalities for recovery and performance. 

About Christian:

Dr. Nelson grew up a little town of Elgin, outside of Austin, TX and had his life changed at 15 by a chiropractor and was inspired to become a chiropractor himself. After 11 years of study, delving into the topics of frequency-based healing, functional nutrition and neurology, essential oils, CBD, cryotherapy, neuroplasticity, developmental psychology, and many other topics, he graduated with his Doctorate in Chiropractic and started into practice in 2019. 

His company, Advocate Wellness, started January of 2020 and Dr. Nelson has been helping people on three continents with neck, jaw, and shoulder problems, and in 2022 started helping people with nerve pains, particularly diabetic and chemo-induced neuropathy, both in his clinic and through his youtube channel. One of the most recent partnerships has been between Advocate Wellness and the Green Beret Foundation, supporting berets and their family members' physical and mental health by relieving chronic pain. Dr. Nelson found the love of Jiujitsu in the summer of 2020 after being (carefully) armbarred 9x in 10 minutes by his professors, Tracy and Roberto, on his first visit to Keller Elite MMA. 

He has three beautiful boys with his wife, Mary Katherine, and practices in Keller, TX (outside Fort Worth) and enjoys golf, woodwork, shooting, playing guitar, riding horses, and getting strangled by his friends on the mats. He generally hates small talk and loves deep conversations by a fire on topics that people are passionate about.
