Dr. Shemansky has accumulated a wealth of diverse work experiences and accomplishments throughout his life. His remarkable journey originated in Vietnam, where he was the youngest of ten children. His parents owned a local jewelry store, and he grew up in a region that is known for its fertile land and Dragon fruit production. His life took a significant turn after the Vietnam war when he was adopted at the age of 7. This marked the beginning of his life in Pekin, Illinois, where both of his adoptive parents had their master's in education, and his father served as the head football coach at Pekin High School.
At the age of 16, a shoulder injury sustained during football practice led him to
visit a local chiropractor. Experiencing the remarkable effects of chiropractic
care firsthand was the driving force behind his passion and pursuit of the field. After receiving his bachelor's of science at Saint Francis University in Joliet, Illinois, he was then accepted into Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa, the nation's premier institution which is renowned for producing some of the best chiropractors in the nation. Dr. Shemansky honed his skills and knowledge under the tutelage of field experts and focused heavily on anti-aging and evidence-based approaches to vitamins and supplements.
In addition to his expert training and education in the chiropractic profession, Dr. Shemansky also had a remarkable journey as a powerlifting world record holder during his teenage years. He is training hard and looking forward to returning to the sport to reclaim the world record in his age and weight class. He is a firm believer that age should not limit or define your capabilities. His personal experience in sports and powerlifting instilled in him invaluable qualities like patience, dedication, and a strong work ethic, all of which he carries with him to this day in his chiropractic practice.
Outside his profession, Dr. Shemansky’s passions extend to spending quality time and traveling with his wife Amber, and his son Preston and visiting his many siblings that are spread across the globe. Dr. Shemansky loves to cook for his family and friends and is known for his honey glazed Chilean sea bass.
