Personal Biography

I have always loved animals. As a child I had many pets; dogs, parakeets, rabbits, hamsters, and gerbils. I also used to foster kittens. I currently have a toy poodle that is a retired agility dog. During her agility days, we earned her NADAC Elite Jumpers Title, Open Standard, Open Tunnelers and won the CPE Nationals for Level 3. She is now enjoying relaxation at home.

I was first exposed to Chiropractic when I was seventeen after a car accident had injured my low back. My Chiropractor helped me immensely and I returned after another accident eight years later. It was then I learned the importance of maintaining proper spinal alignment for your health. While I was seeing a chiropractor, my dog injured her back when she fell down the stairs. I took her to the veterinarian and she was x-rayed with no fractures found. I then decided to take her to a veterinary chiropractor. After her first adjustment, she was back to her normal self. I then decided that my dog and I needed maintenance chiropractic care.

After seeing the benefits of chiropractic, it peeked my curiosity to find out more about it. This led me to where I am now as a Chiropractor.

Testimonial

  • "Thank you so much for adjusting Tarzan. It helped him so much when his back injury caused him so much pain that he could hardly walk. Your adjustments relieved his pain and allowed him to heal. Tarz is doing great! He is back to running, jumping and playing again. Tarz thanks you so much and I do too!"
