Chris a survivor of Chronic Lyme disease, following years of antibiotic treatment (including nine months of intravenous antibiotics), he was declared Lyme free. However, in spite of his doctors’ efforts, he was left with disabling arthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and many other ailments. He was told he would need to learn to live with the pain and train for a new vocation. Devastated by this suggestion, and in an effort to regain his own mobility, his journey into Chinese medicine began. During the process of healing, he realized that he was being called to serve more than just himself.
In the spring of 2005, he opened Three Treasures Wellness Center located in Knightsville Indiana and began his healing ministry. In January 2012 Chris founded a new company, Pure Health Acupuncture LLC (a natural healing and wellness center) located in Brazil, Indiana.
Over the past ten years of working with every day patients, military veterans, firefighters, law enforcement, MMA fighters, and amateur and professional athletes, he developed a large catalog of products including topical liniments, healing balms, herbal soaks, and herbal steams to ease pain and accelerate healing. All products are 100% natural, drug free and preservative free. Many of the products were developed during his recovery stage of chronic debilitating Lyme disease.
