Collaborative Discussion Panel #2's Profile

Collaborative Discussion Panel #2 Related Seminars and Products


One of the most popular elements of last year's conference was the Collaborative Discussions Session, which consisted of four speakers rotating around the room, presenting four different open-ended topics to the audience, which itself is divided into four small groups. Each group hears the speakers' introductory presentation, and then they engage in a free-form conversation on the subject. The purpose of this presentation format is to spark thought and drive active engagement from the audience.

Topics to be covered by the WSCA Connect '24 West panel include:

  • Using AI in a Clinical Setting
  • Chiropractic Applications of MRI
  • Frozen Shoulder
  • Concussion Evaluation

Port Orchard Midwife & Chiropractic Clinic


With 20 years as a practicing chiropractor and 13 years as a practicing midwife, I am an expert on the female pelvis. My mission for the last 20+ years has been to learn and understand how I could make the greatest impact on pregnancy, birth outcomes, and women’s health through the childbearing years. My combined experience has led to a much more nuanced understanding of how chiropractic care is crucial for overall female pelvic health and how its benefits extend far beyond pain relief and pregnancy.

Integrating my skills and knowledge of chiropractic and midwifery, along with craniosacral, Mayan abdominal massage, and specialized training in women’s health problems, I have created care protocols focused on chiropractic adjustments and posture. My practice is in Kitsap County, Washington State.
