During follow-up visits, Dr. Kristen will check how your body is progressing and will provide chiropractic adjustments and therapies if necessary. Each visit will be tailored to you and your individual needs so you can feel better faster.
Chiropractic Adjustments
Dr. Kristen at Glow Chiropractic aims to improve the function of your spine and body through specific chiropractic adjustments. When the spine is functioning properly, it often results in decreased pain, increased range of motion and overall improvement in health.
Benefits of chiropractic adjustments include but are not limited to:
- Better sleep
- Reduced stress
- Decreased joint pain and pressure
- Increased mobility and endurance
Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization
The Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) technique uses specially designed stainless steel tools to mobilize and reduce myofascial restrictions and scar tissue. This results in decreased pain, improved flexibility in the soft tissues, and increased range of motion.
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy, also known as photobiomodulation, has been used safely and effectively for decades. Our laser, the Avant LZ30-Z laser enhanced by ShedLight, has the highest power in its class to maximize results and minimize treatment time. Clinical studies have shown that laser therapy may have the following benefits:
- Decreased pain
- Decreased inflammation
- Enhanced lymphatic response
- Increased blood flow
- Aid in temperature regulation
- Enhancement of ATP production and synthesis
- Increased Serotonin and Nitric Oxide levels
- Facilitates cellular repair and removal of cellular debris
- Nerve regeneration in damaged nerve tissue
Webster Technique for Pregnant Women
Chiropractic care in pregnancy is vital to the normal physiological function of both the mother and baby throughout pregnancy and birth. More women and birth providers are discovering the many benefits associated with chiropractic care in pregnancy and recognize this area of expertise through Webster Certification.
The Webster Technique is a specific chiropractic sacral analysis and diversified adjustment. The goal of the adjustment is to reduce the effects of sacral and sacroiliac joint dysfunction. In doing so, neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis is facilitated.
Sacral dysfunction may contribute to difficult labor for the mother caused by inadequate uterine function, pelvic contraction, and baby mal-presentation. Correction of sacral dysfunction may have a positive effect on all of these factors.

My family found Dr Kristen as we were starting to feel our age and needed to adapt to a healthier lifestyle. Dr. Kristen provides natural pain relief along with guidance and coaching. She showed me how to treat the body right inside and out with her knowledge. She has a passion for her work and has magical hands! I bring the whole family - my kids love getting adjusted and they get a “Glow” stick at the end! She is truly heaven sent for our family, we didn’t realize how much we needed her! Pain free life is Possible !!! It just takes a little adjustment; Pun Intended 😉 -Naty V/MOM

After years of fertility struggles, Dr. Nelson suggested I try Webster technique to help helped me prep for my upcoming IVF with Webster technique. She then did Logan immediately afterwards, to help me with my anxiety so that my stress hormones wouldn’t interfere with implantation. When I told her the fertility treatment and chiro combo worked, she literally jumped up and down! I’m continuing with Webster now and she helps my morning sickness with the laser. I enjoy her energy, her enthusiasm, and her conversation. It made such a difference to have her support and encouragement through this time in my life. I highly recommend anyone trying to conceive to come see her!!
