Brad A Cudnik D.C., C.C.R.D.

     Back in 1981, I was a college student and I loved long distance running.  I wasn’t very fast, but running was a great source of joy and helped me survive the high stress of school.  I suddenly developed severe hip pain and right leg pain.  I couldn’t even run around the block.  My doctor prescribed pain killers and muscle relaxers.  I even spent hundreds of dollars on custom shoe supports, but nothing was helping!  I was devastated and scared that my running days were over for good.  But there’s more.

     A friend of mine convinced me to give a chiropractor a try. The chiropractor did an exam, took some films, and then “adjusted” my spine.  The adjustment didn’t hurt, it actually felt good. I got relief, and I could run again. That’s when I told my family and friends I was changing careers and heading for Chiropractic school myself.  They said it was a “fool stunt”, that I was crazy to spend the time and money.  But, I never looked back.  It was the best decision I ever made!

      I graduated from Western States Chiropractic College in 1986, and promptly moved back to Texas (I was born and raised in Houston, Tx.) and opened Pecan Valley Chiropractic Center.  I have additional training in spinal injury and trauma, postgraduate certification in Chiropractic Rehabilitation, and I am a designated doctor for Texas Workers Compensation.  I have written numerous articles, and am the author of several books including “What You Should Know before Going to a Chiropractor”, and have taught medical students and therapists as far away as Ethiopia.  I am a member of the Texas Chiropractic Association and the American Chiropractic Association.

      On a personal note, I am happily married and have three beautiful children. I still love running (not so long distance anymore), golf and other physical exercise.  I enjoy and love what I do for a living and have been blessed to be part of so many peoples lives.  If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me directly at 210-359-9100. I would be happy to talk to you anytime, and look forward
to meeting you.
