Meet Dr. Laura Konopacki
Discovering Her Passion
Dr. Laura and her 4 siblings grew up on a dairy farm not too far from our office. On a summer break from college, she hurt her back a few days before she was going to leave on a 2-month backpacking trip through Europe. She had terrible sciatica and couldn’t walk right, and worried about going on her trip. Not wanting to just cover the problem with medication, she listened to a friend who suggested chiropractic. Dr. Laura made her appointment, received adjustments, and was thrilled to then be able to go and be pain-free on her trip.
Having experienced such great results herself, Dr. Laura soon enrolled in chiropractic school at Life University. While there, she began receiving regular adjustments to address the deeper layers of stress held in her body. It was then that she experienced the true power of chiropractic beyond just pain relief. With regular adjustments, she got her health back: her sleep, digestion and mood all got better. This was life-changing. She hadn’t realized these symptoms could be linked to stress in the nervous system, and that helping with pain was just the tip of the iceberg.
Sharing Chiropractic With the World
Since receiving her Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life University in 2002, Dr. Laura has practiced in six different countries (Spain, Peru, China, Brazil, India and the US). While living in Barcelona, she helped develop the Barcelona College of Chiropractic, the first bilingual chiropractic college in the world. After returning home, she opened Body Wave Chiropractic in 2013.
For over 20 years, Dr. Laura has been fascinated by the NetworkSpinal Chiropractic approach – an advanced, research-based technique that’s centered on optimizing human performance and quality of life.
She is passionate about helping clients access their incredible untapped potential, so they have more coherent energy to express life in a whole new way. Her message to everyone is to never give up hope.
Away From the Office
Dr. Laura enjoys spending time with her husband and hanging out with nieces and nephews. They love biking and outdoor activities, and you can usually find them at a cabin up north during the summer.
