Chiropractor Burnsville MN Megan Nelsen

MEET THE DOCTOR

Hi there! I’m Dr. Megan.

I’m an experienced chiropractor with a passion to always continue learning.

I’m also a wife, foodie, and mother of 3 amazing kids. My kids are the best things that have ever happened to me (and given me some grey hairs)!

I realized after seeing my mom suffer from spine issues that caused migraines, headaches, and stress problems that traditional medicine wasn’t serving her in the way she needed. She saw doctor after doctor. Endless forms. Surprise bills. My mom deserved to have a better experience.

I decided to become a chiropractor because my mom experienced life changing results from her chiropractor. My mom understood the value of preventive chiropractic care and made sure her entire family received routine adjustments.

I care deeply about my patients, and I want them to know and feel that I am walking beside them on their journey. I too have struggled with finding time for myself and not feeling guilty about it. It can be hard juggling work with motherhood, finding time to cook healthy meals, and quieting my busy mind at the end of the day. I get it because I have been there, and I can help.

I believe that healthcare is not a one-size-fits-all method. I explore creative, effective, and personalized solutions to find what works best for you. I sincerely love what I do, and I would be honored to be your doctor.

Chiropractor Burnsville MN Amy

MEET THE DOCTOR

Hello! I’m Dr. Amy.

I’m a passionate chiropractor and I love what I do! There is nothing better than seeing people reach their full health potential.

I’m also a certified yoga instructor. I see a powerful connection between the alignment of the spine and core stability.

I first found chiropractic care when I was 17 years old after suffering from headaches, back pain, and sleep disturbances due to an automobile accident. I was astonished that my issues dissipated through chiropractic care without the need for medication.

I pursued my career in Chiropractic because I have a deep passion for making a difference in people's lives. I want people to experience the benefits of chiropractic first hand. I approach healthcare with empathy, creativity, and excellence to help my patients live healthier & happier lives.

In my free time, you will find me outside during the summer, trying new foods to cook or restaurants to go to, practicing yoga, playing beach volleyball, and spending time with my family and rescue dog.

I value the vulnerability and trust that goes along with the patient-doctor relationship. I would love to get to know you and help you achieve your health goals.

Chiropractic Burnsville MN Valerie Meet The Team

Acupuncturist

Valerie Christina LAc

I'm Valerie Christina and I'm excited to bring my passion for holistic healing to the Thrive Family!

I'm a licensed acupuncturist and herbal medicine practitioner, a certified somatic breathwork facilitator, and a certified sound therapist. As a holistic healthcare provider, I'm constantly amazed at how we can tap into the body's innate ability to heal and find greater well-being.

For years I had suffered from migraines and was drawn to holistic medicine for my healing journey. It was after personally experiencing the benefits of acupuncture and herbal medicine, that I fell in love with this healing modality. In 2011, I formally began my acupuncture and herbal medicine training alongside volunteering and rigorous clinical internships. In 2015, I graduated with my Masters of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine from Northwestern Health Sciences University.

In my free time, you'll find me outdoors as an avid nature lover, kayaker, and cross-country skier or with my family and friends!
