Meet Our Founders
GUY RIEKEMAN, D.C.
Dr. Riekeman grew up on a small farm in New Mexico and, as the son of a chiropractor, became a chiropractor himself, graduating from Palmer College in 1972. He built a successful practice in Kansas City and helped develop a new chiropractic college in South Carolina before creating the first-ever patient educational videos in 1977. He founded and ran the largest doctor’s management program with over 7000 chiropractic offices enrolled worldwide. He returned to his Alma Mater, the original Chiropractic College, in 1998 as its President and later Chancellor. He oversaw growth in enrollment, research, and prestige while starting the first chiropractic college in South America (Brazil). In 2004, he was named the President of Life University in Atlanta, where he built the largest chiropractic program in the world. Under his leadership, the University also created unique programs in Positive Psychology, Vitalistic Nutrition, Exercise Physiology, and Functional Neurology. Now as Chancellor Emeritus, he was recently voted the most known chiropractor in the world, has conducted 40+ world lecture tours for doctors and the lay public, written a book (Make Your Life Extraordinary), and has recently released a new app for doctors and patients to manage their lifestyle behaviors remotely (MLiQ).
The CLS office is the culmination of a 50+ year career of striving to provide the best of natural, drug-free health care and lifestyle behaviors. His creative ideas have come to life in this unique clinic.
