About

I am classically trained as a chiropractor, and I practice a special type of chiropractic that helps the spine and nervous system work more efficiently and effectively.  As a female chiropractor I am already a minority in this profession, I am one among 150 other females in the world with the highest level of certification in Network Spinal (a gentle chiropractic approach) through the Association of Network Care.  

While completing my business degree from Eastern Washington University in 2002, I began a search for ways to minimize the debilitating pain in my body I was experiencing as a result of playing competitive volleyball for over a decade.  I was healthy, but suffered from chronic pain in my entire back, arches of my feet, and I struggled with athletic induced asthma; I also had severe allergies from the time I was in grade school and horrible sinus infections multiple times a year from constantly getting sick.  After visiting multiple Chiropractors since the age of 16, I discovered the chiropractic technique, Network Spinal Analysis and Somato Respiratory Integration and what we now call today, Network Spinal.

This novel form of chiropractic care I discovered changed my life.  Not only did it change my life, I save it. All my body aches and pains disappeared, the arches of my feet no longer hurt, and I was no longer affected by allergies and chronic sickness.  I even stopped needing to wear prescription reading glasses, as my eyesight was better than 20/20.  

Greatly inspired by this work and wanting to be able to provide this care for others, I then enrolled in New College of California in San Francisco and then Life Chiropractic College West in Hayward CA, to become a Doctor of Chiropractic.  I earned my Doctor of Chiropractic in 2008.  

I am also an Elite Doctor certified in Cranial Facial Release.  There are less than 150 doctors world wide trained to perform this balloon assisted adjustment that focuses on mobilizing all the cranial bones and sutures in the entire head.

I have been highly involved in the Crossfit Community, competing at local competitions as well as taking on yoga challenges at my local studios.
