Stefan M. Herold, DC

~Chiropractic Physician

Dr. Stefan Herold was born and raised in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota. During his undergraduate work he studied biology and philosophy at the University of Minnesota. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in biology and in 2002 he earned his Doctorate in Chiropractic from Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, MN. In addition to chiropractic, Dr. Herold has received training in several other healing arts including training in Cranial Sacral Therapy from the Upledger Institute, acupuncture from Dr. Mai Nguyen at NWHSU and Qigong practice with instructor and publisher John DuCane.

Traditional chiropractic philosophy is based on four very basic scientific truths.

* The body has the ability to heal itself and fight disease. Biologists call this the Law of Homeostasis, also referred to as the innate intelligence of the body.
* The nervous system is the master control system of the human body. It controls and coordinates the function of all the body’s organs and tissues.
* Structure determines function. As any engineer can tell you, good design requires the right materials and the proper shape/form to ensure proper function. The human body is no different, and an alteration in the alignment or motion in a joint will have effects on the surrounding tissues and how well they work.
* Restoring proper alignment to a disorganized system will result in improved function. In the case of a person with a pattern of misalignment, chiropractic care restores nerve function, allowing the brain to control and coordinate the body free from interference. The result is improved health.

Dr. Stefan Herold combines the best of traditional chiropractic techniques with gentle, energetic approaches to restoring balance to the body.

While chiropractic care can benefit a wide range of health issues, Stefan particularly enjoys helping people of all ages with migraine and other headaches, injury recovery, reflux, TMJ and fibromyalgia.

Dr. Herold also utilizes the most up to date (non-invasive and pain free) diagnostic scans to monitor the function of each patient’s nervous system by measuring imbalances in muscle activity and the nerves controlling the organs. This technology was originally developed by the space program to monitor the health of our astronauts, and has been further developed by researchers and clinicians to allow doctors to get the most accurate assessment of each patient’s individual status and their improvement over time.
