Our Story
Drs. Quintin and Katie Sleigh have been serving the Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, Mount Prospect, Wheeling, and Long Grove communities since 2009. Giving back to those less fortunate has always been a value of theirs and a goal that they had when starting their practice. In 2008, while they were in chiropractic school, they traveled to India to provide free chiropractic care in Hyderbad. This was a life changing experience for both of them. Drs. Quintin and Katie saw the terrible living conditions and education system that was available in this poor area. Many of the patients they cared for hadn’t had any healthcare in a very long time and were suffering tremendously. Drs. Quintin and Katie were amazed at the difference they were able to make in these people’s lives and humbled by the gratitude that they received while on this trip. As a result of this trip, they knew that they wanted to find a way to use their training and expertise to continue to give back to those who are less fortunate.
When Drs. Quintin and Katie learned of the Hands for Life non profit organization, they knew it would be a perfect fit. They resonated with the organization’s goal to make sure every man, woman and child have a high functioning nerve system, enough food and water for great nutrition, and an education so they can read, write and have basic skills. Through Hands for Life Arlington Heights North, Drs. Quintin and Katie are able to provide education and chiropractic care to more families, individuals, and cultures in their community and abroad.

Our Team
We’re a family of chiropractors serving to make the world a healthier, more connected place. Our team understands the disparity in healthcare across the globe. There are some communities with access to excellent chiropractic care. There are other groups of people who have no way of receiving the benefit of chiropractic care. Our team came together to try and shrink the gap between the “haves” and the “have not’s”.
