Opening a chiropractic clinic as partners has been a heartwarming journey, one deeply rooted in our shared passion for healing and our desire to make a positive impact on the lives of those in our community. As our relationship grew, so did our dream of creating a space where we could combine our skills and knowledge to help others on their journeys to health and vitality. We envisioned a clinic where every patient would be treated with warmth, empathy, and meticulous attention, reflecting our greatest passion: providing patient-centered care.

In our clinic, we take immense pride in providing a haven of care for those who have felt abandoned by the traditional healthcare system.

We understand that some of our patients have experienced frustration and disappointment when other providers couldn’t provide the answers or relief they sought. At times, individuals may feel lost in their journey towards health. It’s in these moments that we aim to be your guide, offering a compassionate and holistic approach to healing.

Our priorities are firmly anchored in clinical excellence, patient education, and transparency. We are committed to delivering the highest standards of clinical care, ensuring that every patient receives the best possible treatment tailored to their unique needs. Patient education is at the core of our philosophy, and we take the time to empower our patients with knowledge and understanding about their conditions and diagnoses. We believe in transparency throughout the treatment process, fostering trust and open communication to help our patients make informed decisions on their path to lasting well-being. We want our clinic to be a place of healing, support, and hope, where you are never alone in your healthcare journey

Morgan uprooted from her midwest home and moved to Washington in 2019. Graduating from Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, she focused her undergraduate studies in Medical Humanities and Health Science. Because of her huge interest in culture and holistic/natural medicine, she also received minors in Medical Sociology and Religious Studies.

Immersing herself in the practices that have changed her life for the better, she quickly discovered her interest in medical billing and became madly passionate about helping patients understand their insurance coverage and how to utilize it for their best interest. She admires the steps holistic healthcare providers are taking to collectively better the health of those in the surrounding Seattle area and she hopes to help spread that knowledge and educate those who are seeking alternative healing methodologies, which is why she loves being a part of the Virtus Sport & Extremity team!

In her free time, she loves finding new mountain lakes and camping/fishing spots with her fiancé, Andrew, and their chocolate lab, Raynee.
