Working alongside her husband, a Chiropractor, they saw amazing results when combining nutrition and Chiropractic. In 2010 she and her husband sold their business and moved to Tulsa, OK to attend a bible college. She joined Dr. Matt Hunt at Hunt Spinal Care and has continued her nutrition based practice. “I love what I do. It is so rewarding to see peoples’ body’s come back alive. When they tell me ‘I have so much more energy, my digestion is so much better or I can finally sleep through the night’, I am thrilled. The body is so amazing and perfectly designed. When we take stress off the body by eating better, supplementing with specific nutrients lacking, and receiving chiropractic adjustments healing takes place.”
