It was her own personal struggles that led her to Chiropractic and Functional Medicine. She suffered a severe knee injury while skiing which required reconstructive surgery. “I stopped at my Chiropractor’s office for an adjustment after every physical therapy session because it was the only thing that prevented me from limping. I realized then how much I could help others overcome and recover from injuries. It was in 2003, after the passing of her Father, that she became passionate about learning how to help others stuck within the confines of traditional medicine. “I was one of those kids that always refused to take medicine. Practicing Functional Medicine allows me to teach others how to feel the messages your body sends you and how to support the systems that need it until your body can breakthrough the barriers that limit you. “
