ABOUT US
Welcome! Congratulations on taking a positive step forward in the care of your body and overall health. We invite you to look at everything on our website, get curious and ask questions! Since The Healthy Spine Center was established in 2006, we have offered the highest standards of treatment and patient care.
You may be wondering what to expect on your first visit. You will ALWAYS receive some treatment on your first visit. Most likely you are in some level of pain, and eager to get started, and I am not going to make you wait anymore! Treatment can take several forms: if I feel your spine would do well with an adjustment on the first day, and most do, then we would go ahead. If you are too inflamed for an adjustment, then we may use ice, soft tissue work, electric stimulation or massage.
Most of your appointments will include an adjustment and some form of tissue work. I believe that your body responds more readily to the chiropractic adjustment if the muscles are addressed as well. I use several different types of adjusting styles, some geared toward the average adult, some very light techniques specifically for children and babies, and some modified for those with osteoporosis, histories of surgery or broken vertebra and compressed discs.
My grandma always says there is a lid for every pot. I believe there is an adjustment that will work for every type of person.
We look forward to meeting you and your family!

DR. KATHARINA WELBORN
Chiropractor
For me, headaches were normal. I can not remember a time of my life when I had no headaches. I had never considered finding out WHY I got headaches, they were just a part of me, and Excedrin pain medication became a staple in my purse.
One of my chiropractic professors adjusted me when I had a headache in class, and my headache went away! I knew I would like the profession when I first started school, but I didn’t know the PASSION I would develop for chiropractic until that adjustment.
Some quick qualifications...I graduated from the University of the Pacific with a Bachelors in Medicinal Biology. Then I worked as a microbiologist for two years, but that was boring for me. So I went back to school for my Doctorate in Chiropractic and graduated in 2003. I then completed advanced training for animal chiropractic with certification through the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association.
Hey, enough about me! How can I help you and your family with gentle, safe and natural chiropractic care? I'm excited to help you take your first step towards better health.

WHAT OUR WONDERFUL
PATIENTS THINK
Jaime P. and family
Dr Kat has truly changed our families lives. We have gone from daily headaches, back pain, shoulder pain, foot pain, and lowered immune systems, to becoming new people!
We have been seeing Dr Kat regularly for over a year. She is not a “snap crack” chiropractor, but truly listens to each of us, analyzing our posture and concerns and then she uses her extensive knowledge to practice soft tissue work and gentle manipulation. She has a warm and caring personality and her office mascot Bruce, (a French bulldog) as the welcoming committee, is the icing on the cake. We can’t say enough positive things about Dr Kat! She has changed our lives and we will forever be grateful!
