Dr. Hickey
Owner and Chiropractor
Meet Dr. Hickey – the founder of ANH Wellness. She loves helping people and her passion is supporting mothers through pregnancy into motherhood, while providing optimal health for both mom and baby. Dr. Hickey is a graduate from New York Chiropractic College. She has always had a passion for helping people, which first sparked her interest in chiropractic care while she was in high school.
Dr. Alyssa Hickey began shadowing local chiropractors and decided to continue her education at King’s College in Wilkes Barre, PA. where she received her bachelors in biology and minor in neuroscience. While at King’s, she continued helping people by becoming an active member of AmeriCorps, organizing and participating in various volunteer activities. Alyssa was also very active among her school community, she was a representative for her graduating class, president of biology club and secretary of the neuroscience club. Once her journey was complete at King's College, she moved to Seneca Falls, NY. and attended New York Chiropractic College. Shortly into her education she began to have increased enthusiasm for learning more about women’s health, specifically in treating pregnant women and children. Alyssa gained further education on her interest by submerging herself in related courses, clubs, and seminars including Pediatric Radiology, Pregnancy and Pediatric Nutrition, Women’s Health Care Issues, Clinical Pediatrics Chiropractic Care and is a member of the International Pediatric Chiropractic Association.
Dr. Hickey is certified by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics, an intensive postgraduate certification focusing on pregnancy and pediatric care, as well as practical applications of pediatric neurology and physiology. Completion of the CACCP requires extensive research, 200 curriculum hours, and a final exam that takes several months to complete. She has also obtained her certification in the Webster technique, which is a set of diverse adjustments used to reduce the effects of sacral and SI dysfunction, thus improving neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis. Her mission is to educate mothers about the normal functions of their bodies during pregnancy, as well as the need for ideal alignment for maintaining natural and healthy motions, in order to promote happy mothers and healthy newborns.
