Her practice focuses on gentle, holistic chiropractic care tailored to everyone's needs and she primarily uses SOT, Sacral Occipital Technique to address imbalances in the musculoskeletal, cranial, and nervous systems.
Dr. Kristen is trained in the Webster Technique, a specialized chiropractic approach designed to optimize pelvic alignment in pregnant women, promoting a more comfortable pregnancy and supporting optimal fetal positioning. She also has extensive training in chiropractic cranial work, which she uses to address a range of concerns for infants, children, and adults.
For infants, she provides gentle chiropractic and cranial techniques to help with breastfeeding challenges, torticollis, head preferences, and colic. Children benefit from her care after sports injuries, concussions, or the strain of carrying heavy backpacks and prolonged sitting.
Dr. Kristen has a special appreciation for chiropractic care during pregnancy, as she was able to adjust patients throughout her own pregnancies with her two sons, Bodhi and Jackson, who weighed 10 lbs 8 oz and 11 lbs 2 oz at birth. Receiving regular chiropractic adjustments multiple times per week allowed her to stay active and healthy throughout both pregnancies.
Dr. Kristen has co-owned Canton Dale Chiropractic with her husband, Dr. Joel, for 14 years, and they joke that they're still happily married despite the challenges of running a business together.
A plant and animal lover, Dr. Kristen has filled her office with a vibrant assortment of plants, creating a welcoming and calming space for her patients. Her two dogs, a Border Collie and a 14-year-old mix, often join her at the office, adding to its warm and friendly atmosphere. At home in Easton, she enjoys spending time with her family and taking her Border Collie to canine good citizen training and sheep herding classes.
Growing up in Canton, Dr. Kristen has deep roots in the community and is dedicated to helping families thrive through natural, effective chiropractic care.
