Julie Flora, D.C.
Doctor of Chiropractic
In harmony with nature is the philosophy at Meadowland Chiropractic and for its founder, Dr. Julie Flora. She believes in living close to nature. That means making wise choices regarding health and wellness, the products we use, the food we eat, our lifestyles. She believes the further we move away from our natural state, the more "dis - ease" we feel in our mind, body, and spirit. It is then we seek healing alternatives that will, ultimately, bring us back to nature.
Dr. Flora first discovered chiropractic as a teenager, after a seemingly "harmless" accident left her in pain for several years. Frustrated with increasing prescriptions and persistent symptoms, she sought the help of a chiropractor. She has been a chiropractic patient and advocate ever since. When she decided to make a career change, chiropractic seemed like a natural choice. She wanted to help others experience this holistic approach to health.
Dr. Flora has a passion for nature and enjoys hiking, horseback riding, kayaking, gardening - just about anything outdoors. Other interests and hobbies include native and medicinal plants, "mountain medicine", aromatherapy, yoga, and alternative agriculture.
Before becoming a chiropractor, Dr. Flora worked in the field of conservation biology for 15 years. She has undergraduate degrees in Fish & Wildlife Biology and Environmental Resources. Her love of animals guided her to further expand her clinical skills, and she completed a post-doctoral animal chiropractic program in 2008.
