Chiropractor

Dr. Klinger has been an avid runner for most of her life. She competed from junior high through her Division II undergraduate team and she continues to enjoy running now as a “weekend warrior.” During her school career she was prone to chronic injuries such as plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and runner’s knee; she found relief and the ability to continue running competitively for over 12 years through chiropractic care and corrective taping. Because of the impact chiropractic had on her life and her parents’ lives, she was inspired to become a chiropractor and to give back and help others in pain.

“My purpose is to help people live the life they were meant to. If I can help people reduce and manage their pain and be able to get back to the things they enjoy doing, then I am doing my part to leave this world better than when I came into it.”
