Dr. Bridget fell in love with the Jacksonville community when she moved here ten years ago and surrendered her life to Christ at the Church of Eleven22. There are two things that you can always count on Dr. Bridget talking about: Christ and Chiropractic. Dr. Bridget works together with her husband at Slainte Chiropractic.

Dr. Vincent Farrar
Dr. Vincent Farrar is a pediatric and prenatal chiropractor utilizing the Gonstead Technique. He is certified in the Webster Technique which is very beneficial for pregnant moms. works with stressed newborn babies who want to eat, sleep, and poop with ease and he works with children with developmental challenges who want to reach their milestones.
Dr. Vin was born in New York after stressful labor. He experienced breathing difficulties, so he was on a nebulizer treatment frequently. After he finished those treatments, he had recurrent strep throat infections so he was given rounds of antibiotics. At the age of eight, after countless failed treatments Dr. Vin had surgery to remove his tonsils. Then Dr. Vin had experienced really bad seasonal allergies which his parents were told were normal.
During this time, Dr. Vin was an avid baseball player. Even though he lived in NY he played year round and put countless of hours into his career. Dr. Vin started out as a catcher than after a few years began to pitch as well. This placed a lot of stress on his arm and over time he developed an arm injury. This was how he was introduced to chiropractic.
Only after starting chiropractic school, did Dr. Vin discover what chiropractic was truly about. From that point on he had a burning desire to help children grow to their fullest potential.
Dr. Craig Bryan III
Dr. Craig is the first chiropractor in his family! It is true what they say, you don’t choose your passion, but your passion chooses you. One of Dr. Craig’s favorite quotes is by Mark Twain, “ The two most important days of your life are the day that you are born, and the day you find out why.”
Dr. Craig was a Division 1 athlete, but after suffering a severe neck injury, it ended his career. What he didn’t know is that it would start his life’s mission, which is to bring hope and healing to people who have not been able to conquer their health challenges.
Dr. Craig’s passion is to bring a ridiculous amount of positive energy and happiness to families who are extremely frustrated with the health choices that they have been given or made themselves. There is an answer, and Dr. Craig understands that with a great Brain-Body connection, healing is possible!!
Slainte Chiropractic was an answered prayer from God for Dr. Craig. With hundreds of routes he could’ve chosen, he was challenged to learn and understand the best technique that allows him to get as close as possible to the root cause of health challenges, which is The Gonstead Technique. He is blessed with not one but two extremely talented, intelligent, and passionate mentors who have devoted their lives to the science, art, and philosophy of Gonstead Chiropractic.
