Our Doctors

FOUNDER

It all began with a 2004 journal entry: “I want to go into natural healthcare… maybe massage therapy?” Dr. Silveira always knew that there was a better way to live and function optimally. She taught herself how to make soap, facial oils and body scrubs with only a few natural ingredients. She obtained that massage practitioner license. In 2010 she found herself with a job as Dr. Watson’s assistant, and for seven years she grew to love watching people get better and reach their health goals. Wanting a bigger part in that journey, Dr. Silveira graduated from Life Chiropractic College West with academic honors and a special interest in geriatric care and gentle adjusting for more fragile bodies. She has a special passion for vitalistic and whole-person care. With the certainty that she could do more in a society where the medical paradigm rules, yet primary care is less and less effective, she completed 4 years of additional education in functional medicine, providing a more in-depth testing and diagnostic investigation, as well as more options for natural treatment protocols. 

She is proud to take part in the health and wellness needs of her hometown community, and excited to continue the legacy of Watson Chiropractic to ensure that all members of this practice have the most rewarding experience possible. 

Dr. Silveira enjoys being in the sunshine in any capacity, hanging out with her family and friends, and pretending like she'll have time to travel one day.

He is delighted to see the practice he has built transfer into the hands of Dr. Silveira, someone he knows will uphold all the values that made him so successful. He will remain in the practice as long as his knees will hold him up, because otherwise he would miss everyone way too much.
