Kenia Zelaya Ryan - CA

Growing up, Kenia had always had an interest in the medical field, and when introduced to chiropractic care, she gained a love for the approach it had on pain management. Prior to moving to Missouri to be closer to family, she worked at a chiropractic office in Virginia. There she gained a passion for helping patients in their healing journey, so she is excited to continue helping patients in the Springfield area. In her spare time, she enjoys doing outdoor activities with her family such as hiking, walking, or simply enjoying nature in any way.
