Orland Park Chiropractor | Dr. Laura Jendra

Overland Chiropractor, Dr. Laura JendraI have often been asked as to the reason why I chose to be a Chiropractor. It all started with a part-time job as a receptionist in a chiropractic office while completing my undergraduate studies. Not only was I an employee, I also became a patient. I had developed chronic neck pain from a car accident a few years prior. Soon after beginning care my neck pain was a distant memory, and my path to chiropractic began.

After receiving my Bachelor's degree from San Francisco State University, I went on to Palmer College of Chiropractic in San Jose, California. I have also obtained the distinction of Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician (CCSP). CCSP is a specialized post-graduate program that required me to take extensive sports-injury specific continuing education, which culminated with an examination prior to being awarded the CCSP certification. I am currently completing training in Functional Diagnostic Medicine. Functional Diagnostic Medicine addresses the whole person, not just an isolated set of symptoms. For more information on Functional Medicine, go to:

I am dedicated to forming long-term relationships with my patients. I believe the chiropractic office should offer a relaxing environment where a patient can get away from the stresses of daily living and be treated in an atmosphere of relaxation and genuine care. It is very important to me that all patients feel comfortable and confident in my office.

Thank you for visiting our website. I hope it can be a source of hope and healing. Please do not hesitate to call our office at (708) 403-9450 with any questions or concerns.

 Dr. Laura Asks some important questions of interest to Orland Park residents - Chiropractor Orland Park Dr. Laura Asks...

What's the difference between sick care and health care?
Sick care is largely about relieving or suppressing symptoms. Health care is about improving performance. While sick care is about how you feel, health care is about how you function. Sick care is what you do to treat an obvious problem, and health care is what you do to avoid the problem and advance your well-being.
What is the purpose of pain?
Pain prompts many Orland Park folks to begin chiropractic care. But pain isn't the problem! Pain is just how your body alerts you that a limit has been reached (or exceeded), that something isn't working right and that some type of change is needed. As a chiropractor, my job is finding the underlying cause and recommending the changes needed to bring your body back into balance.
