“Chiropractic is in my soul—I was born to be a chiropractor.”
Chiropractic runs deep in my family. My grandfather was a chiropractor, and from a young age, I witnessed the transformative power of natural healing. The countless “chiropractic miracles” I saw in his practice inspired me to dedicate my life to holistic healthcare.
I graduated from Greenon High School and went on to earn a Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in Physiological Psychology from Wright State University. I then pursued my Doctorate of Chiropractic (D.C.) at New York Chiropractic College (NYCC), completing my internship and residency at the Buffalo Veterans Affairs Medical Center. There, I had the privilege of serving our nation’s veterans, gaining invaluable clinical experience.
After earning my degree in 2005, my wife and I returned to Springfield, Ohio, to be close to family. I initially joined a local chiropractic practice, and by 2007, we proudly took ownership.
A Holistic Approach to Health
As a lifelong learner, I am committed to expanding my knowledge and providing the best care possible. In 2019, I became a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner (C.F.M.P.), allowing me to integrate holistic, nutrition-based, and functional medicine approaches into patient care. Shortly after, we rebranded our office as Harding Holistics, reflecting our mission:
"Create health. Change lives."
At Harding Holistics, we believe in natural, patient-centered healing that addresses the root causes of health concerns—not just symptoms. Through chiropractic care, functional medicine, nutrition, and lifestyle support, we empower individuals and families to achieve optimal wellness.
Helping Patients Near & Far
My passion is helping families experience vibrant health and lasting wellness through alternative, drug-free solutions. Every day, I witness firsthand the incredible transformations that come from chiropractic adjustments, functional medicine, and nutrition. It is an honor to serve patients not just from Springfield, Ohio, but from across the United States and even internationally.
If you’re ready to take control of your health and experience the benefits of holistic chiropractic care, we invite you to schedule a visit at Harding Holistics today!
“Helping Women & Families Achieve Lasting Health Naturally”
I always believed I would become a pediatrician, but early in my studies, I realized that conventional medicine—treating symptoms and prescribing medications—didn’t align with my vision of true healthcare. Unlike my husband, I didn’t grow up with chiropractic care, so at first, it seemed a little unconventional. But during my time at Wright State University, I experienced chiropractic firsthand—and everything clicked. This was the holistic, root-cause approachto health I had been searching for.
I graduated with honors from Wright State University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology before earning my Doctorate of Chiropractic (D.C.) from New York Chiropractic College (NYCC). My internship and residency at the Buffalo Veterans Affairs Medical Center gave me the opportunity to serve veterans while deepening my clinical expertise. Academically, I’ve always been driven, graduating in the top 5% of my class.

A Passion for Functional & Holistic Medicine
My love for learning and whole-body healing has only grown over the years. In 2013, I became a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner (C.F.M.P.), expanding my ability to address chronic health issues through nutrition, lifestyle, and personalized care. In 2020, I earned certification in the Callahan Emotional Release Technique, integrating emotional health into my holistic approach.
Personal Experience with Autoimmune Healing
After the birth of our first child, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. I struggled with fatigue, brain fog, hair loss, and an overwhelming need for naps. Through this journey, I realized just how inadequate conventional medicine can be when treating autoimmune conditions. Frustrated but determined, I dedicated myself to researching, experimenting, and developing holistic strategies for women’s health and autoimmune wellness.
Today, I use my personal experience and clinical expertise to help women navigate hormone imbalances, thyroid disorders, and chronic health concerns—empowering them to reclaim their energy and well-being.
Balancing Family, Education & Patient Care
Beyond the clinic, I wear many hats. I homeschool our children, serve as a tutor in our Classical Conversations co-op, and continue to provide chiropractic care, functional medicine, and sought-after health consultations. My husband and I are privileged to share this journey, united in our mission to create health and change lives.
If you’re looking for a natural, holistic approach to wellness, I’d love to help you on your health journey.
