Loren C. Miller DC., FACO, PS opened Quality Life Health Center in the old Wells Fargo Bank building, next to Berry’s Grocery in Craigmont (113 W. Main St.) in the latter part of 2015.

FACO stands for Fellow of the Academy of Chiropractic Orthopedists meaning he is a physician who can be licensed to practice in all 50 states, Canada and many other countries of the world. An FACO has extensive, specialized training in examination and treatment procedures emphasizing primarily the neuromusculoskeletal structures of the body including the spine and the extremity joints as well as the related soft tissues. This involves conditions affecting bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, cartilage and related nerve structures. In the course of treatment the Chiropractic Orthopedist applies manipulative/adjustive procedures along with other treatment options such as physiologic therapeutics, nutrition, structural supports, corrective devices, exercise and rehabilitation regiments, preventive care advice and home therapy programs for patient wellness. Miller gave the following information about himself: "I became a chiropractor because when I myself was going through unbelievable neck, back, and muscle pain. A chiropractor was the only doctor who was able to give lasting relief from my suffering. And he did it without prescribing pharmaceuticals or cutting into me. I also liked the fact that he took the time to communicate with me about the different causes of neck and back pain. My first chiropractor was the first to really talk with me about the pain that comes with back problems. He also talked to me about chiropractic, pain and my overall health and wellness. Now that I too am a chiropractor, I emulate his compassionate approach. I take every opportunity to talk about what it is to be a chiropractor, providing solutions for neck, back, and general muscle and joint pain with my patients. I want them to know that we can offer many of them the relief they are in search of."
