Chase Hayden, DC, has wanted to be a doctor since he was 11.
He grew up in Pasadena, Texas, playing just about every sport he could and earning his Eagle Scout. Early sports injuries introduced him to chiropractic and applied kinesiology, and he fell in love with holistic, natural medicine. He has spent his career in that world ever since, honoring the body’s ability to heal itself.
The road to practice
Dr. Hayden studied at Brigham Young University in Hawaii and Utah, then served a two-year mission in Chile, where he became fluent in Spanish. Back in Texas he met his wife, started chiropractic school at Texas Chiropractic College, and finished his Doctor of Chiropractic at Life University in Marietta, Georgia. After associate work in Utah and Texas, he founded The Hayden Institute in Houston in 2009.
The Hayden Institute
Dr. Hayden founded The Hayden Institute, but it was built by a team: his wife helped build it from the ground up, and the office manager, staff and fellow clinicians shape it every day. Today the functional medicine clinic in NW Houston (Jones Road, 77065) includes Dr. Elissa Ellerbrock, Dr. Erica Extine and Liz Taylor, a Board Certified Holistic Nutritionist and the clinic’s Heart Sound Recorder expert. Together they combine chiropractic care, functional medicine, clinical nutrition, Applied Kinesiology, Quantum Neurology, Neuro-Emotional Technique and functional endocrinology into individualized care.
Philosophy
The power that made the body heals the body. Dr. Hayden sees his job, with patients and with the clinicians he mentors, as removing what’s in the way. Good care starts with a thorough exam, honest listening and a clear explanation the patient can understand. Good practices run on the same principles.
