Dr. Aaron Kidron Popp is a Winfield/LOFS resident and 2001 graduate of Crown Point High School. Dr. Popp graduated with his Doctor of Chiropractic and Master of Science in Human Nutrition degrees in April 2009 and has been practicing in the Winfield community ever since. It was always a goal of Dr. Aaron to practice and live in the community that he grew up in. Dr. Aaron and his wife Jen have been residents of Lakes of the Four Seasons since 2009.
Dr. Aaron spent most of his childhood in the Crown Point area. At the age of 15 he began working with his father, Dr. Jeremy K Popp, of Popp Family Chiropractic in Homewood, IL. With years of exposure to healthcare and chiropractic, Aaron decided at a young age that he wanted to help people like his father. He saw that through chiropractic, he could realize that dream.
Dr. Aaron chose to pursue his undergraduate studies at Indiana University Bloomington. In May 2005, he received his Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. The following January he began his studies in chiropractic at National University of Health Sciences in Lombard, IL. He chose National University to pursue his doctorate because of its focus on the entire body as a system and treating the person as a whole. National University also has much esteem throughout the health professions with a strong focus on research and evidence based practice.
While attending National University, Dr. Aaron also decided to further his education in nutrition and acquire his Master of Science degree in Human Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport, Connecticut. As Dr. Aaron progressed through his studies of chiropractic, he began to understand the importance of nutrition and diet on the health of the human body. Dr. Popp believes that with sufficient nutrients the body is able to heal more quickly and efficiently and is also less prone for re-injury. This also leads into the value that Dr. Popp puts on rehabilitation. Dr. Popp has attended multiple technique courses on rehabilitation and strengthening for his patients to better be able to understand the full needs of the patient. Dr. Popp works with physical therapists, primary care physicians, orthopedic surgeons, pain specialists, and most other specialties to facilitate healing as well.
In his spare time Dr. Popp spends his time with his wonderful wife Jen, his son Henry, and daughter Emmalyn. He loves going to concerts with his family and also enjoys snowboarding and anything related to cars.
