CHARLES COCHRAN, D.C.
Dr. Cochran received his doctorate in chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. Since his graduation in 1984, his post graduate education has included programs in skeletal radiography, diagnosis and treatment of soft tissue injuries, operation and diagnostic procedures of liquid crystal and infrared scanner thermography, and philosophy and clinical techniques of acupuncture. He has been in private practice since graduation. During this time, he also owned and operated a multi-disciplinary clinic that included practitioners from four different philosophical backgrounds. In 1989, he opened The Mind Spa, one of the first clinics to use light, sound, and electrical stimulation to the central nervous system to induce altered states of consciousness. In these relaxed, aware states, patients were able to become aware of the mental and emotional components of chronic pain and accelerate their healing processes, as well as, modify undesired behaviors. In the past, Dr. Cochran served as director of nutritional development for a nutritional company that specialized in over 32 spirulina-based and anti-oxidant formulas. He has also served on several boards of prominent nutritional companies, and is still consulting with some of these companies helping them to design nutritional programs and individual products. He is presently researching extraction techniques in isolating specific nutrients found in two types of algae. Dr. Cochran has authored several articles and his booklet entitled Dr. Cochran Discusses Arthritis and Cetyl Myristoleate has sold over 100,000 copies. Because of his extensive
work with the various fatty acid ester complexes containing cetyl
myristoleate, related analogs, and their effects on the different forms of
arthritis, he has been nominated as a finalist for the International
Olympic Prize endowed by Pfizer for the year 2002.
He has also had the opportunity to teach college-level human anatomy and physiology. And, he presently owns a nutritional development company that has created several leading edge nutritional formulas that are presently being sold throughout North America, Europe, and Australia. He serves as a consultant for several companies in the nutritional industry in creating specialty formulations, helping to set up related medical studies, and educating their staff and the public concerning these and other products. He loves to teach and, consequently, finds himself doing weekly radio shows, writing, and speaking on his favorite topics of chiropractic and nutrition. |
