This experience led to Dr. Mahtabans decision to alter his career path, and ultimately devote his life to healthcare. While desperately seeking the help of western medicine, Dr. Mahtaban was surprised to discover, that at the youthful age of 21, all medical professionals who examined him, recommended surgery and pain medication to solve his problem. Unwilling to accept the risks involved with surgical procedures and the side effects of long term medication, Dr. Mahtaban continued his search for the cure.
During his search, Dr. Mahtaban discovered the holistic paradigm of chiropractic.
