Dr Lauren Thompson
Dr. Lauren Thompson was first exposed to chiropractic care when she was thirteen years old. She was having growing heel pains and felt off balance at practices as a competitive gymnast. After experiencing the impact chiropractic care had on her pain and performance she knew she wanted to research further into this healthcare profession. Multiple interviews with chiropractors in the Bay area and more research led her to pursue a career as a chiropractor.
Dr. Lauren received her Bachelors of Science in Systems Physiology, and a minor in Chemistry at San Jose State University. She then began her chiropractic journey at Palmer West College of Chiropractic, San Jose. She is RockTape, Gavilon, and Webster technique certified. She finished her last year of school working on active military men at the Navy Base Hospital in Lemoore as part of the Department of Defense Program. She is certified in a 100 hour course in Applied Kinesiology. Dr. Lauren is one of only 200 doctors in the world to be Cranial-Facial-Release certified, being a CFR Elite doctor.
Dr. Lauren’s goal with treatment is to individualize for the needs of each patient. She begins by properly assessing and examining each patient’s unique patterns and habits before personalizing a specific treatment and at home therapy plan. When not at the office, Dr. Lauren enjoys hot yoga, pilates, dancing, hiking, and training for half marathons.
