About Dr. Nelson
Dr. Nelson graduated from Minnesota State University, Mankato in 2004 with a BS in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. After deciding to pursue his interest in health he began his chiropractic training at Northwestern Health Sciences University and graduated in 2008 with a Doctor of Chiropractic.
In 2008 the laws changed in Minnesota so that chiropractors with a minimum of 210 postgraduate hours of animal chiropractic education could provide chiropractic care for animals. Because of Dr. Nelson’s love for animals he immediately began the animal chiropractic training at the Healing Oasis Wellness Center. He completed his training at the HOWC in 2009 and received certification in VSMT (animal chiropractic).
Dr. Nelson is married to his wife Christina. They don’t have any kids yet, but do have a dog named Pavo. They enjoy outdoor activities like snowboarding, snowshoeing, camping, fishing, walking and playing with Pavo.
Dr. Nelson has a passion for chiropractic care and the benefits it provides for two and four-legged beings. “I know the power of the adjustment and the change in life it can bring. Animals, whether they are performance, working, or couch potatoes can benefit from chiropractic care.”
