Hello! 👋 My name is Morgan and I am the owner of Rilling Family Chiropractic. As I reestablish my practice in Decorah it feels like a good time to introduce myself and share a little about my chiropractic journey.

In 2023 I closed my practice in Seattle. My husband sold his restaurant. We bought a house sight unseen. Our son Hendrik was born and two months later we were Midwest bound to live closer to family.

I am from Decorah and grew up enjoying all that makes this town a truly special place: from running the Elveløpet each year, to floating the Upper Iowa River, and enjoying rømmegrøt at every family holiday. We love Decorah and couldn’t be more happy to raise our son here!

Chiro background:
I earned a BA in Biology at the University of Northern Iowa. I spent the next 3 1/3 years studying at Palmer College, the fountainhead and leader in chiropractic education. During my time at Palmer I was actively involved as an intern in the Sports Rehab Department, gaining additional experience caring for athletes. The last trimester of chiropractic school I spent doing an internship with Charlie Norwood VA Hospital in Augusta, GA where I provided chiropractic care to a more complex patient population. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with my Doctorate of Chiropractic in 2015. Most of my continued education since graduation has been through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association, advancing my care for pediatric and pregnant patient populations.

I have been in practice as a chiropractor for almost 9 years. My first associateship was on Bainbridge Island, WA, and my second was a multidisciplinary clinic within Seattle. In both clinics I saw a wide range of patients including working professionals, pregnant women, kids, and athletes. I opened the first location of Rilling Family Chiropractic in 2019 in the heart of Seattle, renting a space within Queen Anne Natural Health, a holistic multidisciplinary clinic. I love working with providers of all specialties and feel multidisciplinary collaboration is at the heart of patient centered care.

In addition to being a chiropractor, I am a wife, mother, foodie, nature enthusiast, board gamer, runner, and baker.

Athletes under chiropractic care tend to perform at higher levels, have greater coordination/flexibility, and suffer fewer injuries.

Why? Chiropractic adjustments improve communication of the nervous system with the rest of the body > This results in improved function of all systems (including the musculoskeletal system) > Leading to optimal performance on the basketball court, football field, swimming pool, track, etc.

Chiropractic is a holistic approach to improving health. Adjustments restore healthy movement of the spinal joints, which improves communication of the nervous system with the rest of the body.

Patients often seek chiropractic care when nagging symptoms such as neck pain, midback pain, low back pain, headaches, jaw pain, rib pain, etc. get in the way of day to day living. However, since chiropractic improves nervous system function, patients also tend to notice improvement in unexpected areas, such as sleep, digestion, coordination, energy, allergies, and asthma.

Thrive and feel your best with chiropractic!

Whether you are on your feet all day, lifting heavy materials, looking down often, seated at a computer, or caring for kids in the home, repetitive postures can impact healthy movement and alignment of the spinal joints. Challenging work postures can lead to musculoskeletal pain, headaches, and overall body fatigue. Chiropractic adjustments restore healthy spinal mobility, improving nervous system regulation. People often find that frustrating pain symptoms go away and they are able to move with more ease, confidence, and coordination!

Jumps, falls, and tumbles…our kids are always on the go, both physically and developmentally. This is an ideal time for gentle chiropractic adjustments to help support nervous system function as kids reach each new milestone. Kids as young as newborn (especially after more complicated births) and as old as high schoolers (especially those stressed or seated in poor postures all day) can benefit from chiropractic adjustments.

Positive outcomes may include better sleep, digestion, mood/behavior, and coordination. Parents often notice their kids have fewer ear infections, less illness, improved asthma, reduced seasonal allergies, and less bedwetting.
