State Senator Honored By CT's Chiropractors

State Sen. Lisa Seminara, R-Avon, might not be your first choice for a chiropractic back adjustment.

After all, it's not what she does.

But the state senator serving in the 8th Senate District recently did the next best thing, advocating for working to improve public access to a chiropractor for many.

Earlier this month, the Connecticut Chiropractic Association honored the Avon Republican for her efforts.

Seminara serves the towns of Avon, Barkhamsted, Canton, Colebrook, Granby, Hartland, Harwinton, New Hartford, Norfolk, Simsbury and Torrington.

Seminara was recognized for "her legislative efforts in support of patient choice and improving access to chiropractic services"

“I am grateful for this recognition,” said Seminara, who serves on the legislature’s Human Services Committee. “I am always touched when receiving recognition for hard work and I do my best to fairly and fiercely represent and advocate for the best interests of my constituents.

"As state senator, it is a priority for me to support healthcare professionals and patients, and I remain focused on passing bipartisan healthcare policies which give consumers a wide range of choices and options for their care.

"CTChiro’s advocacy at the State Capitol is helping to expand access to chiropractic patients throughout the 8th Senate District and across Connecticut. The efforts of chiropractic professionals to alleviate pain without medication helps reduce opioid addiction and costly surgeries.”
