Chiropractor
Jeff Algajer D.C.
Born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, I embarked on my academic journey, earning a Bachelor of Science from the University of Alberta in 2002. My passion for health led me to Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, MN, where I graduated with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree in 2006.
It was there I met my future wife, Dr. Katie Algajer. United in both marriage and vision, we founded Discover Chiropractic in Chaska in the spring of 2007 and have been dedicated to this community ever since. Together, we're blessed with four beautiful, healthy children.
My commitment to health and longevity is unwavering, and I'm constantly seeking new knowledge to help others live fuller, healthier, and happier lives. A mountain man at heart, I love spedning time there skiing, hiking or even just relaxing by a stream. The mountains are truley my favorite place on earth. I also enjoy bow hunting, working out, and living my faith daily, striving to serve God to the best of my abilities.
