A Doctor of More Than Just The Body CHIROPRACTIC- HOLISTIC, SPIRITUAL, & SELF-IMPROVEMENT Dr. Brian Hutcheson is a graduate of both the University of Arizona and National University of Health Sciences. He received his BA in Economics from the University of Arizona and his D.C. (Doctor of Chiropractic) from National University of Health Sciences. Doctor Hutcheson has a strong compassion for helping others live better. He is a chiropractor here in Florence, South Carolina. I also practice acupuncture. I’m a member of Eastern Carolina Medicine and I’ve been here since April 2013. I really have been enjoying Florence. It has grown on me due to meeting wonderful people. I’m happy to call it my home. He is originally from Riverside, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. Okay, the “windy city”. How does the weather compete to here during the winter? The winter here is unbeatable. Chicago had about five months of snow straight this past winter, and I don’t miss that. What led you to getting into chiropractic? I was originally studying business management. I wanted to be like my father who did sales. My sophomore year I had a change of heart. I was out away from school and I was away from home in Arizona and all of the sudden I started thinking about making a difference. I wanted to make a personal, one-on-one difference with people. My brother had severe scoliosis growing up. He ended up having to get metal rods in his back. At that point in time, I thought if I could prevent one person from having to go through that surgery that it would be worth it. So halfway through, you had a change of heart. Tell us a little about chiropractic. This is a spiritual and Christian magazine. Chiropractic can also touch the spirit as well as the physical man. Basically, chiropractic works directly on the central nervous system. The central nervous system is what allows us to express ourselves in our environment. The central nervous system not only connects you to your five senses, but it also connects you to your spirit. By connecting you to your spirit it allows you to have that communication with God and to ease any kind of resistance to that. A good way to relate that to more of a scientific understanding is that people come in and very often and their spirits are down, they are hurting, and they don’t look directly at you at their initial consultation. After they have gone through a course of treatments, as they are leaving your office on that last treatment, you notice that they are in high spirits and they are thanking you. They are now able to lift their children, and sit through an hour of church without having to stand up or feel out of place because of the pain that they are in. It really does have an effect on not only the physical body, but on the spiritual as well. 6 DEVINE GLORY MAGAZINE How does that make you feel and what kind of gratification and joy do you get out of that? There is nothing else that compares to the feeling that I get when I’m able to help someone heal and see them come in with a dampen spirit and leave joyful and excited again about life. What does Dr. Hutchinson do to wind down? To wind down, I find it nice just to be outside. I really enjoy being outside. I am working on a healthy fast food restaurant to also help give back to the community of Florence. I’m working on that with a good friend of mine, Jason Hoven, who is a chief at 1031. How has the health food been going so far? The healthy fast food is going great! Last week, we actually won the Florence Chamber of Commerce Shark Tank event. Outstanding! Tell us about the event. What was the experience like? The event was wonderful. I got to meet a ton of other inspiring entrepreneurs in Florence. We really got motivated to make our restaurant a reality. Is it just you and Jason that are doing the health food? We also have a third partner named, Nancy Zimmerman, who will be on board with us as well. I look forward to also being a patient of yours and bringing my health back up to where it should be. I believe family and longevity is important. Do you have any family? I am single. I have a brother, sister and my parents are happily married. We have a very close family relationship and I look forward to having a family now. Do you get to go to the beach much here? I very much so enjoy being an hour away from the beach as well as being a couple of hours from the mountains. Florence really has a lot to offer being so centrally located.
