Dr. Alessandra Colón: Pioneering Chiropractic Medicine on National Television

by | Sep 4, 2023

In her inspiring TLC show “Crack Addicts,” Dr. Alessandra Colón highlights the importance of alternative medicine as she takes on the challenging work of pioneering a chiropractic televised series nationally. After initially assuming an email message from TLC was spam, her enthusiasm and passion for reducing somebody’s pain for 24 hours led her to pursue this fantastic opportunity.

Dr. Alessandra Colón, chiropractic physician at Papa Chiropractic in Palm Beach Gardens, has been celebrated since the May 24 premiere of her show “Crack Addicts” on TLC. She is pioneering a chiropractic televised series on a national level, bringing alternative medicine to the forefront. Her work is essential and exciting, as she takes on the responsibility of this endeavor with pride.

Colón’s journey to stardom began with a message from TLC that she first assumed was spam. However, her enthusiasm and determination to pioneer chiropractic television led her to accept the opportunity.

She was determined to capture the authentic reactions of those who had never seen a chiropractor before, and her efforts proved to be immensely worthwhile, as she made it her mission to reduce somebody’s pain for 24 hours.

Diagnosis of Stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma

At 14, Colón experienced a life-altering event when she was diagnosed with Stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma cancer. With the help of MD Anderson Cancer Center and Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston, she beat her illness and looked at life anew. Refusing to be defined by her struggles, she has taken this challenging experience and used it as an opportunity to grow and thrive. Through her resilience, Colón has become a beacon of strength and hope for others who have faced similar challenges.

Her hard work and dedication have earned her an opportunity to be the star of TLC’s “Crack Addicts” in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, on July 13, 2023. As a committed Leukemia & Lymphoma Society member and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Colón has demonstrated her willingness to give back to her community.

She has also shown remarkable strength in raising her 10-year-old stepdaughter and seven 1/2-month-old son alongside her husband. A proud and dedicated mother, she even gave her baby boy his first chiropractic adjustment at just seven seconds old when he was placed on her belly.

Healing from the Inside Out

Her skills are undeniable, and her 15,000-patient wait list is evidence of that. Patients rave about the healing touch she provides, hailing her as a wizard with magical hands. She can reduce inflammation and decrease nerve interference for her patients through chiropractic care, genuinely healing from the inside out. Her ability to heal via physical touch has earned her an impressive reputation that continues to grow.

With her framed quote proudly displayed in her office, Dr. Alessandra Colón has become a star since the debut of TLC’s ‘Crack Addicts.’ She has been overwhelmed with inquiries from all over the world, with an average of 100 calls per hour flooding her office and website. An impressive 15,000 people are already on the waiting list, yet Colón still manages to fit in 50 patients a day, giving preference to her local existing clients, friends, and family, as well as those who discovered her through the show.

She is humbled and proud to have reached a level of success similar to her fellow TLC counterpart, Dr. Sandra Lee, and looks forward to continuing to shine a light on her profession.

The three-episode first season of “Crack Addicts” is available to watch on demand on TLC Go and has been met with a positive response from chiropractors across the globe. It remains up in the air if the series will be renewed. However, the show’s impact has already been felt by many, as it has provided help and relief for those in need.

In her pioneering journey to star status, Dr. Alessandra Colón exemplifies the power that determination and faith in one’s dreams can have. She is eager to show the world the capabilities and healing effects of alternative medicine through her work at Papa Chiropractic in Palm Beach Gardens and on her television series “Crack Addicts.” Has Dr. Colón shown viewers the power of a journey with chiropractic and demonstrated how dreams can be achieved with integrity and bravery?
