In this inspiring episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons welcomes Dr. Fabrizio “Fab” Mancini—internationally recognized chiropractor, educator, speaker, and author of Self-Health.
Together, they unpack the failings of a profit-driven healthcare system and reveal how true healing begins with personal responsibility, lifestyle choices, and reconnecting to the body’s innate ability to heal.
From his transformative car accident in the 1980s to becoming the youngest university president in the U.S., Dr. Mancini shares why he chose chiropractic over surgery, how the medical establishment actively suppressed natural approaches, and why integrative medicine and biohacking are changing the conversation on chronic disease.
This episode is a wake-up call for anyone navigating chronic illness, questioning conventional care, or seeking the tools to live with vitality into their 90s and beyond.

- How a devastating car accident led Dr. Mancini to chiropractic care
