Dr. Kyle grew up in Anoka, Minnesota, just outside of Minneapolis. He became a chiropractor because he was interested in a natural approach to helping people and it matched his personal philosophy of wellness. As a nursing assistant for two years after his undergraduate work and before studying at Palmer, Dr. Kyle was able to get first hand experience in other medical fields. This strengthened his belief that there are effective alternatives that compliment traditional medicine but are better for the body and for overall wellness.

Dr. Kyle has practiced in both Iowa and Maine and joined State College Family Chiropractic in January 2015 and is excited to be living in Happy Valley and exploring all the region has to offer.
