Meet Dr. Kocken
Dr. Kocken understands the stresses that are placed on both the physical laborer’s body as well as the ‘corporate athlete’s’ body in today’s fast-paced work world. The ergonomic stresses that are placed upon the spine can interfere with work and life outside of work. Chiropractic can help!
He worked in family chiropractic clinics before moving to De Pere. He is well-versed in the treatment of infants, toddlers, and children. Dr. Kocken understands that almost all women experience low back pain throughout the duration of their pregnancy. He has the proper equipment to make a pregnant woman’s visit comfortable and convenient. He has been trained in the Webster Technique.
He has worked with athletes at all levels and delivers evidence-informed, outcome-based care using the latest research, techniques, equipment and technology to provide the best experience for the patient. He has 160+ hours of post-graduate training focused on musculoskeletal care.
Dr. Kocken lives in De Pere with his wife Kelly and their 3 kids (Brynn, Oakley & Fulton) and dog (Murphy). He is an active member at Jacob's Well Church and enjoys biking to work and around town, reading, trap shooting, sporting clays, water skiing, wakeboarding, and downhill skiing.
