Chiropractic Assistant
Katie Sampson
Location: Appleton WI
Katie is originally from Rock Island, Illinois (Fabulous Illinois Beauty) but was raised here in Appleton.

Katie's been using chiropractic care since high school. Regular adjustments have kept her migraines and sciatica at bay. Chiro care does a lot for her, "It's a big part of my mental health and it keeps my immune system boosted. It keeps me healthy, mentally and physically! It's so important to keep your body calibrated. Our bodies are like machines that need constant maintenance. It has taught me so much about how the body works. After learning more about my body, I can sense when a migraine is coming on, get an adjustment, and stop it in its tracks."

Alicia spends her spare time singing as a worship leader at her church, singing for fun, buying too many things off of Amazon, watercolor painting, and finding new walking/hiking trails! If you are nice to Alicia she may even share her favorite food, spinach tortellini! A sure way to Alicia over would be to take her to Belize, her dream vacation spot!
