SELENE, New Patient Coordinator

As the New Patient Coordinator, I will walk you through your initial visit, from obtaining histories of your condition to performing chiropractic examinations and x-ray imaging. I have been part of Smith Chiropractic Health Care for 2 years and look forward to coming into the office and interacting with our team to share the benefits of chiropractic to our patients. As someone that has seen the other side of poor health, I am passionate about sharing knowledge related to health, wellness, and fitness, so that others can make informed decisions about their health. Improving my daily habits like nutrition and movement greatly improved the quality of my life and motivated me to seek more health-promoting avenues like chiropractic to optimize my health. I am trained in nutrition and lifestyle interventions and have a graduate degree in applied exercise science. Every month I give a presentation on the impact of nutrition on health here at the office for our patients. Today, I am a whole food, plant-based endurance athlete and participate in variety of races. On my downtime I enjoy trying new plant-based recipes with my husband, Joe and taking our two dogs John Stewart and Shiera on outdoor adventures. I live what I teach.
