Chiropractor
Josh Young D.C.
Originally from the east coast, spending time in Massachusetts, Philadelphia area, and then New Hampshire. It was in New Hampshire in undergrad at Franklin Pierce University (physics class) where he met his wife and greatest influence to become a chiropractor, Dr. Emily Young.
Following undergraduate studies, they attended Palmer College of Chiropractic together, graduated in 2013, and opened their clinic, Crystal Lake Family Wellness in Crystal Lake, Illinois in 2014 where they have practiced ever since.
Dr. Josh's interests include: devoting time to his family, fitness, nature, chiropractic philosophy, growth mindset, always looking to improve his chiropractic abilities in pursuit of mastery, and working on their farm. He believes how we do something is how we do everything.
Dr. Josh Young believes every man, woman, and child can benefit from regular chiropractic care. As he teaches, the role of the adjustment is to take stress off the nervous system so it can perform it's job. The job of the nervous system is to adapt, and for that reason, all can benefit. He teaches that the spine is the link between brain and body, and when it is supported, the life force within us is amplified and our health is maximized. This is something he is strongly passionate about as it has not only supported his entire family's health and life in a wonderful way, but now tens of thousands of others in over ten years of practice.
