Meet the Doctor

She earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Biology in 1976 from Augustana College in Illinois and worked for many years as a microbiologist.  As a biologist, she recognized that the integrity of the nervous system is fundamental for optimum health. She studied the mechanism of the vertebrae as the protective housing of the spinal cord and nerves, and how abnormal positioning of the vertebrae can compromise the nerve flow, thereby compromising the body's functioning and incidentally, many times causing pain.

In her practice, Dr. Lynn Owens integrates different techniques of chiropractic.  She specializes in non-force manipulative methods of correcting vertebral joint positioning.
