Let’s reintroduce ourselves 👋🏼
We’re the team behind Portland Specific Chiropractic, co-owners and spouses Dr. Paulina Kaminski and Dr. Nikolai Young, along with Winston, our golden retriever and official furry team member. We opened our doors in June 2024 and have been so grateful to serve the people of Oregon ever since.
Our passion for upper cervical care is personal.
During undergrad, Dr. Kaminski experienced significant health challenges including severe anxiety, panic attacks, and intense sensitivity to light and sound. It reached a point where even walking into a grocery store felt overwhelming and physically distressing.
Everything changed when we discovered upper cervical chiropractic.
Over time, with precise and gentle care, her body began to heal. That experience did not just change her health. It shaped our calling.
We made the decision to dedicate our lives to helping people who feel stuck or overlooked, especially those dealing with symptoms that may stem from upper cervical misalignment and nervous system dysfunction.
This is not just what we do. It is our mission.
We are deeply committed to continued education, clinical excellence, and delivering the most precise upper cervical care possible.
Thank you for trusting us with your health. We are just getting started 🤍
