Description:

Dr. Jeremy Thornton, BS, DC, DABCI, is board certified by the American Board of Chiropractic Internists and is a member of the American Chiropractic Association, the Missouri State Chiropractic Association and the Council on Diagnosis and Internal Disorders. Dr. Thornton is the past District 5 President for the Missouri State Chiropractic Association. He was born in Clinton, Missouri, and raised mostly in Stockton, Missouri, where he currently practices.

Dr. Thornton has always been interested in health. Not particularly attracted to pharmaceuticals and traditional medicine, he initially looked into the fields of Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine. After a severe car accident early in his college career, he was introduced to Dr. Myron Harbottle and the healing art of Chiropractic. As he recovered, he fell in love with this hands-on form of health care and soon steered his educational path toward becoming a Doctor of Chiropractic.

During Chiropractic College he developed an interest in the ancient Chinese healing art of Acupuncture, or, more accurately, Meridian Therapy, in which he would eventually become certified. He also earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Human Biology from Cleveland Chiropractic College in Kansas City.

After graduating from Cleveland, Dr. Thornton opened his practice in Stockton, naming it Thornton Family Chiropractic. Early in his professional career he became interested in how nutrition affected health, and in turn, how many disease processes could be improved or reversed with proper nutrition, life-style modifications, and natural therapies.

Furthering his education, he then attended a postgraduate degree program offered by the American Board of Chiropractic Internists and earned the diplomate degree ?Board Certified Chiropractic Internist.? This degree is conferred on a physician who completes a rigorous, 300+ hour education and credentialing program in standard medical diagnoses, internal disorders, natural treatment, and conservative disease management. Less than 300 Doctors of Chiropractic throughout the World are thus honored. (See our video What is a Chiropractic Internist? to learn more.)

Dr. Thornton is involved in music ministry at his church and his hobbies include hunting, fishing, gung fu, basketball, and reading. He currently lives in the picturesque lake town of Stockton with his lovely wife Carla and their beautiful daughter Jayla.
