The VEC team and I have served the Seattle, WA community for over 21 years. Our historic Craftsman house in the North Capitol Hill neighborhood was built in 1904 and served as both our home and The Vital Energy Center-Integrative healthcare office. The VEC was a sanctuary, set apart from the bustling and rapidly growing city just outside our doors. People came from across the PNW for patient-focused, compassionate and clinically effective healthcare. Our one-of-a-kind health center has been home to so many meaningful events, life-changing adjustments, miraculous healing, weddings, birthdays, art openings, and holiday dinners galore. In June 2020, after 2 decades practicing in Seattle, we made the bittersweet decision to let it all go and leave Seattle to pursue a more peaceful and nature-centric lifestyle by moving full-time to Orcas Island.
As of August 1st, 2021, Carolyn and I will be offering our services as Mobile Providers. You can now receive a life changing chiropractic adjustment or energy attunement from the comfort of your own home. Carolyn and I are accepting new and existing practice members from Orcas Island, San Juan Island, Lopez Island, Shaw Island, Bellingham, Anacortes, and Mt. Vernon. We offer FREE consultations if you’re curious about who we are, what we do, and how we may be able to help you.

Our Philosophy & Approach to Care
The cornerstone of healing is the positive exchange between two people based on mutual understanding and trust. We therefore foster a caring and communicative relationship with all of our practice members and you are treated with dignity and respect in our office.
We patiently listen to your concerns, challenges, and answer your questions. We work one-on-one with our practice members and we’re available via telephone or email in-between visits.
We respect your uniqueness and design custom care plans specifically for you, based on your goals and your priorities. Recommendations are presented clearly and without pressure or obligation. We’re here to help you for short term relief care or long-term wellness care. The choice is yours.
We collaborate with other healthcare providers and organizations to promote optimum health and wellness for our patients and the community.
We’ll teach you how your unique body works, provide self-care activities that speed recovery and optimize health, and offer creative suggestions that will enhance the quality of your life.
We see health as a state of optimum physical, mental, spiritual, emotional and social well-being, not just the absence of symptoms. We encourage you to THRIVE in all areas of your life!
We have a basic trust and respect for each individual and know that people respond best to positive motivation, such as trust in the individual’s ability to maintain his or her own well-being and to reach his or her fullest potential.
