Meet the Doctor

Dr. Kristen started her career earning her Doctor of Chiropractic from Life Chiropractic College West in the beautiful San Francisco Bay Area. She returned home to Calgary in fall of 2021. She is proud to say she graduated Summa Cum Laude.

As a Chiropractor, Dr. Kristen focuses on the treatment of acute and chronic neuromusculoskeletal injuries. Dr. Kristen strongly believes that her role is to facilitate her patient’s optimal body function; building resilience to encourage an active lifestyle. She believes a combination of soft tissue therapy, and both spinal and extremity manipulations, are keys to optimizing your body’s function. Therefore, you can expect a full body approach when it comes to achieving your wellness!

She is passionate about making her community healthy and happy, and continues to upgrade her knowledge with seminars, conferences and webinars. She is keen in understanding the latest information on how to best serve your needs. Her most recent education has allowed her to study on concussion foundations, testing and rehabilitation.

On weekends you can expect Dr. Kristen to be exploring Calgary, enjoying a great cup of coffee, hiking in Canmore, or exploring around with her dog, Duke.
