About Island Health & Chiropractic
r. Nashman moved to Bainbridge Island in November 2017 and purchased Island Health & Chiropractic from Dr. Lucia Vracin — bringing with him more than 25 years of expertise in both ProAdjuster® technique and traditional manual adjusting. He has close family in Seattle, and is happy to make Bainbridge Island his home.
Trained in nutrition through Dr. Chestnut’s Seminars and certified in Chiropractic Biophysics (CBP) for postural assessment, his approach is integrative by design: gentle, computerized adjustments paired with lifestyle, movement and nutrition guidance — never just one technique applied to every patient.
Across three decades he has owned three successful practices — in Canada, the United States, and Ireland — and worked alongside top amateur and professional athletes in hockey, football, competitive swimming and golf. His previous practice in Aiken, South Carolina was 75% ProAdjuster/Ultralign, and in 2014, only two years after opening it, he was voted unanimously as Aiken’s “Best out of 25 Chiropractors.”
