Meet the Doctor

Dr. Rebecca Carlson

I want to be the best I can be: The best mom, the best wife, the best doctor/coach/cheerleader, in that order of priority.


I also want to be the best athlete I can be, the best role model, the best friend, the best leader, and the smartest version of myself (you get the idea) that I can be.


​​​​​​​The ONLY way I can be MY BEST, for any length of time, is to consistently take care of what I already have: my health, my physique, and my brain. It is not easy, and certainly not in the American culture of fast food, long hours, and instant gratification.


However, it is the choice that I make every day, for me, for my family, for my patients. Some days are better than others – I like my pizza and cheese too! Come on! I am from Minnesota! We are honorary cheese heads, being that close to Wisconsin:) I try to make better decisions, MOST of the time. Perfection is not possible, and moderation is a good option – you have to be able to LIVE!

What sets us apart from other chiropractic offices in Tempe is our sense of wellness and support from not only myself but my staff as well. The spine and nervous system together are THE most important system of your body. They run EVERYTHING AND RECEIVE INFORMATION FROM EVERYWHERE! Every cell, muscle, tissue, ligament, tendon, and gland are controlled by your nervous system!

Life has a tendency to bombard us with stressors – trauma, microtrauma, toxins, allergens, preservatives, pesticides, and prescriptions, as well as emotional, mental, and spiritual stress. At. Every. Turn. The nervous system is singularly responsible for processing ALL of that information and directing the body in appropriate responses. And, if that is not enough, the brain then gets information back from the body, assesses it, and responds again SEAMLESSLY… if you are subluxation free. Subluxation? That’s the magic word. Both good and bad, depending on you and your life. More on that when you visit us! We believe in removing subluxations, or misaligned vertebra that create interference to the nervous system, so that the body can perform at an optimum. Not only do we remove subluxations with adjustments, we also support muscle growth with exercise and lifestyle regimens specifically tailored to our patients and their individual needs. When you care for your spine, you also care for the whole body!
