Hello, My name is Dr Lisa Parenti and I would like to introduce myself to you. I am a licensed chiropractor, new to the state, but not new to the profession. I have been practicing in Nashville, Tennessee these past twenty years, but have recently moved to Florida to enjoy the sun and surf, but also to help you!

Over the years, I have treated hundreds of people of all ages for a wide variety of health conditions, ranging from backaches to foot problems to headaches and more. I have worked with many chronic pain patients, as well as those with new injuries from falls, accidents, incorrect posture and bad sleeping habits. My talent lies in my ability to unravel tough musculoskeletal problems by working on the spine, as well as the surrounding musculature and the extremity joints. I incorporate the chiropractic adjustment, physiotherapy, foot orthotics and different techniques in massage. I have worked alongside medical doctors, massage therapists, sports trainers and podiatrists so that I could become well rounded in all that I do. My treatments are thorough and complete and I incorporate many different types of modalities to achieve the results desired.
