Meet Your Chiropractor
Michelle Stafford
Hello! My name is Michelle Stafford and I have been a Chiropractor (human) for 29 years. I’ve always loved animals (and have had over 7 pets in my adult life), and decided to branch out and pursue Animal Chiropractic Care. I took my first pet to an Animal Chiropractor in 1993 and have always been interested in the field. I completed the post-graduate program at Healing Oasis Medical Center and am now certified in spinal manipulations and rehab for animals, and now teach at the same program. I would love the opportunity to treat your animal and improve their life.
Outside of my work, I enjoy spending time with my pets and family as well as camping, hiking, gardening, cooking, renovating my home, and weight lifting.
