Taylor

Taylor was in a car accident in January of 2014. Afterward, she had terrible headaches, neck pain and inability to concentrate at school. Her grades were plummeting. After just a few weeks in Dr. Peterson’s care, Taylor was more focused, the headaches decreased and her grades went from D’s and F’s to A’s and B’s! Taylor’s mom, Ginger said Dr. Peterson’s care was life-changing for Taylor.

Dedicated to maximizing your health through first class chiropractic care.
