​🚑 From EMS to Chiropractic: A Journey Rooted in Real-World Care

Dr. Denny began her healthcare career at age 17 in EMS, balancing emergency response work with college and chiropractic school. After a car accident at 21 left her in chronic pain, she discovered chiropractic care—and it changed her life. That experience ignited her passion for healing and inspired her to open her own practice, where she also served as the company chiropractor for the ambulance service.

🤰 Pediatric & Prenatal Expertise Backed by Personal Experience

As a mother of four who experienced multiple high-risk pregnancies, Dr. Denny found transformative support through pediatric and prenatal chiropractic care. This led her to complete a rigorous three-year post-doctorate program in pediatric and prenatal chiropractic, earning her Diplomate in Clinical Chiropractic Pediatrics (DICCP). Her work has been published in the Journal of Chiropractic Clinical Pediatrics, and she is the only ICA board-certified pediatric and prenatal chiropractor in New Haven County.
