Dr. Dana Harper:
Growing up in Houston, Texas, Dr. Dana Harper excelled in sports and won numerous awards, including a Kinkaid High School record broad jump of 22’ that held for 18 years. What turned Dr. Harper to chiropractic was a sports injury of his own. While captain of his football team, he sustained a disk injury to his lower back.
Having injured his back at such a young age, he eventually found his way to a doctor of chiropractic medicine and came to understand and know firsthand the intrinsic value of chiropractic sports medicine.
Dr. Harper is a board certified sports chiropractor and has over 35 years of experience in the field of sports medicine and rehabilitation. He operates a multidiscipline health facility in Houston, Texas consisting of chiropractic, rehabilitation and physical rehab. In addition to treating his own patients, he serves as the Team Chiropractor for the Houston Astros baseball team for over 25 years helping them get to the World Series 4 times and coming away with the Championship in 2017. He was also Team Chiropractor for the Houston Texans professional football team for 15 years. As well as treating these players throughout the year, in and off season, he travels with the Astros baseball team to spring training each year to West Palm Beach, Florida.
Dr. Harper was also chosen as the chiropractor to treat the NFL Carolina Panthers during Super Bowl XXXV.
His desire to heal and help people get back to their active lives without pain as quickly as possible is his passion; one he likes to call the ‘whole health advantage.’
In his time outside of the clinic, Dr. Harper enjoys cultivating his skills as a photographer, taking photography workshops and creating his own photography art books.
