Dr. Courtney grew up in a small town in Iowa with her family and experienced a health challenge in high school that led her to a chiropractic office. It was then that she realized how powerful the nervous system is and how chiropractic care can impact all areas of health.
She went on to obtain her Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science at Central College in Pella, Iowa. During these years, as she was developing a deeper love for how the human body works and simultaneously forming a desire to live a sustainable holistic lifestyle, she knew it was her calling to become a chiropractor!
During her time in chiropractic school, she was introduced to the Gonstead Technique and later became a leader of the Life University’s Gonstead Club. The specificity and unique care for each patient spoke to her desire of how she wants to care for patients. She believes that everyone’s nervous system and chiropractic care should be as unique to them as their appearance, life experiences, and goals are. Dr. Courtney is also certified in the Webster Technique and has attended several seminars to continue to learn how to best serve her patients. She is proud to serve the Nashville community with the specific chiropractic care that she believes every person deserves.
When she’s not in the office, Dr. Courtney loves to read, try new recipes, play games with family and friends, and spend as much time outside as she can!
