Dr. Nick Nerem was born in Boone, Iowa and completed his Bachelor’s Degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry while attending Waldorf College and then the University of Iowa. Following his undergraduate studies, he attended Palmer College of Chiropractic, located in Davenport, Iowa.

Dr. Nerem decided to become a chiropractor after sustaining a severe lower back injury in 8th grade football. While suffering for weeks, with no results through traditional medicine and physical therapy, his father brought him to a chiropractor. After a few weeks of treatment his back pain was relieved and he was back on the field.

After graduating from Palmer he moved to Grimes and opened Nerem Family Chiropractic in December of 2006. Soon after he met his wife, Heather, and they have been happily married since 2008.
