It's hard to believe that I opened the office ten years ago!
A lot has changed since then. When I started as a chiropractor, I was single with no kids. Now I am married with three precious little girls. But the one thing that has not changed is my desire to lead people on their journey to health.
As my patients, you inspire me to learn more each day. It is such an honor to work with people that value their health and want to live the best life possible.
Thank you for being on this journey with me and entrusting me with your chiropractic care, soft tissue work (ART), and listening to all of my thoughts on eating real food, moving your body, destressing, and getting enough sleep! I love seeing everyone on their journey to becoming the happiest and healthiest self!
Cheers to 10 years!

We had so much fun cooking, eating, and talking about the Keto diet on Tuesday night at Prairie Path Books! The discussion was wonderful, and everyone loved the recipes from Leanne Vogels book, The Keto Diet.
What's Special About This Book
Why did I choose this book out of all the Keto books on the market? There are a number of reasons that this book stands out to me.
- The recipes are based on a variation of the Keto diet that relies on healthy, non-processed, whole foods (think Paleo).
- She recognizes that each body is unique and provides resources to find the right “path” for your body.
- She provided four weeks of meal plans and shopping lists for each path.
- She uses leftovers in the meal plans, so you are not constantly cooking.
- Her balanced approach is refreshing. She focuses on lifestyle change, not dieting!
What Was On The Menu
We had samples of a salad, entree, side, dessert, and a drink.

Join me at Prairie Path Books on Tuesday, May 7th, (7:00-8:30) for my first cooking demonstration of the year! It will be based off Danielle Walker’s book, Against All Grains.
As an avid home-chef, parent, and chiropractor, I am passionate about healthy foods. I am excited to come alongside those who want to incorporate delicious, nutrient-dense foods into their life.
I personally learned the benefits of eating an anti-inflammatory diet in 2012. I want to make eating real food - fresh vegetables, fruits, as well as the right kinds of meats and fats - accessible to all.
This will be the start of a series of cookbook demonstrations that will run throughout the summer. You can sign up for one demo, or all of them, by calling PPB at (630) 765-7455!
Each demo cost $35 to attend, (and includes a $15 shopping credit)
