Meet Us
Dr. Sarah Nelson
Dr. Nelson received her Bachelors of Science in Environmental Biology from Eastern Illinois University and her doctorate in 2000 from Logan College of Chiropractic outside St. Louis, MO. She is the proud mother of four very active and unpredictable boys (*who are as of 2025, all officially MEN!). She has always enjoyed playing sports and teaching fitness classes and still finds time to travel to many collegiate and NFL football games for her boys.
She is grateful to be able to use natural principles of healing to help new patients seeking immediate relief at the onset of injury, thereby enabling them to return to work/sports promptly. It is also very fulfilling for her to continue wellness care for her decades-long patients who have become like family. Her mission statement has always been to honor the Latin root of "Doctor", which is "teacher". She feels that patients who understand true HEALTHCARE and learn how to achieve it for themselves is the ultimate mission. Her goal is that every clinical encounter results in a patient who leaves better than the way they walked in.
