I have been working for Dr. Tyler since the summer of 2006, when I realized the mortgage business wasn’t for me. I grew up in Johnston, Iowa and attended Emmaus Bible College in Dubuque, Iowa. At Emmaus, I graduated with a Bachelor Degree in Biblical Studies and Theology. I also met the love of my life, Nick Reed, whom I married after graduation. Nick is from Mystic, Connecticut and is currently a full time youth and worship pastor at his church.For the past two years, I have been helping him with all of my free time. In 2007, we joyfully gave birth to their son, Judah, at which point I took time off work to focus on my family.As of the beginning of 2008, I rejoined TLC’s team as a part-time Chiropractic Assistant.

Dr. Tyler has truly been a blessing in our life. Before meeting him, I made use of Chiropractic care to fix any neck pains I had. Since my encounter with Dr. Tyler, my world view has changed for the better in many areas of my life. For example, my understanding of the value of exercise, diet and health have become very important in my everyday life. Also, I no longer run to the medical doctor for antibiotics, but seek a more natural approach when my body seems to be shutting down.

The greatest impact Dr. Tyler has had on my family was with the blessing of our son Judah. Dr. Tyler simply challenged me to do my research in the following areas regarding pregnancy: natural birth, midwife vs. medical doctor, the Bradley Method, vaccines, and Chiropractic care for infants. Needless to say, research led me to a natural birth with an amazing midwife, 8 weeks of the Bradley Method birthing class and a 100% natural beautiful little boy.

It is true when Dr. Tyler says he has a heart for babies and pregnant mothers. He adjusted Judah when he was only 6 hours old. We can very easily say they trust Dr. Tyler not only with our own life, but also with our son’s life.

Good times with family and friends, Chiropractic care and wellness, the love for teens and the beautiful things of the Lord, are all very important things in my life, and that is the honest truth.However, my true passion is spending every possible moment with my family. We love being out doors, enjoying fellowship with people, especially the crazy teens in the youth group God has provided us. And there is nothing better than ending a long, hard working day, with a good movie snuggled up next to my husband with the baby long gone asleep in bed.

I have been a health enthusiast for the last 5-10 years, but it wasn't until I met Dr. Tyler that I learned what "true" health really was.  I'd been to other chiropractors when I'd had aches, pains or complaints, but never to make sure things were functioning correctly...even if I didn't have pain!  Now, I understand health and wellness and the vital role chiropractic plays in that. 

As an endurance athlete competing in world class races in both duathlons and triathlons, I understand perhaps more clearly than others, the importance of function.  If one part isn't well-tuned, it affects the entire outcome.  I'm grateful to have the opportunity to know Dr. Tyler and to work with him so closely.
