Dr. Nate is an exceptional wellness practitioner. His deep knowledge of how the human body works and moves complements his enthusiasm and commitment to meeting his clients where they're at and guiding their journey towards their goals - from racing hard, practicing yoga, hiking with the family, or simply moving through daily life. Thank you, Dr. Nate!

Kristin

I like to train with a lot of intensity and enjoy CrossFit, which at times can beat me up. Dr. Nate is always there to help me not only when something doesn’t feel great but also to keep me healthy proactively so I can enjoy my active lifestyle. Thanks Dr. Nate!!

Dr. Nate understood how important it was for me to keep moving and provided modifications to my training in addition to treating my underlying issues. Having consistent chiropractic care has enabled me to train consistently and work through any aches or pains that come up. Dr. Nate isn't just a skilled chiropractor, he's an athlete that relates on a personal level to your individual goals.

Judy

As someone who got into competitive racing later in life, I often found myself dealing with injuries due to my imbalances. Dr. Nate not only helped me get past the injuries but identified the imbalances that were the cause and then helped devise exercises to fix issues.

Luke

Whether it is fast-packing the John Muir Trail, racing in a 200 mile trail event, or a 5K around the neighborhood, Dr. Crain and his approach to my mechanical health has been critical. Most importantly for me, Dr. Crain considers the whole picture when coming up with a solution, physical, mental, work stress, etc.,...and those solutions are sustainable.
