Over 13 years of chiropractic practice, I've seen a lot of patients who suffer from migraines. They can be incredibly difficult to get rid of with conventional medical treatments, which basically amount to medications to either prevent them from occurring or reducing them when they appear. Both of these options are only covering up the symptom of pain, instead of actually getting to the root of the problem. Unfortunately, these medications have such a long list of side effects it would take me a full page to list them.

I grew up in a small town outside of Superior Wisconsin and came to Minnesota in the early 90's. I've always worked in an office environment and have developed a myriad of different skills over the years.
In 2005, a friend of mine introduced me to Dr. Jeff and we immediately hit it off. In 2007 Hillside Chiropractic moved into it's new location and Dr. Jeff offered me a job.
I really didn't know much about the chiropractic profession or medical terminology prior to dating Dr. Jeff, but I couldn't pass up the chance for us to work together and stay closer to home.
I originally was his assistant, but in 2009 I took over the Office Manager title. Now I do all the scheduling, billing, patient staging and anything else that comes up. I love my job and really enjoy meeting and helping so many different people. It's really like a family here as our patients are also our friends.
In 2010, Dr. Jeff and I were married and it really feels like OUR clinic now. The only regret I have is that I wish I would have found out about chiropractic when I was younger, as I know Dr. Jeff could have helped me avoid my three back surgeries before I met him. I've seen so many people come into our office devoid of all hope to ever feel good again and then Dr. Jeff does A.R.T. on them and they can finally see light at the end of the tunnel. That is what makes my job so enjoyable. Making a difference in people's lives sure makes going to work easier.
