Healing as Collaboration

My Story

Hi, I’m Dr. Julie Potter. My hip pain started when I was 10 years old, and I remember having gut cramping earlier than that. Neither traditional chiropractic nor Western medicine had solutions. When I was 29 years old, I went to my first different chiropractor, and he started me on a path that has led to a better quality of life and new career.

At 33, I went from teaching college students to being one again. I received traditional chiropractic training from Northwestern Health Sciences University and mentoring from chiropractors who looked at the spine as a symptom of something deeper.

I emerged from that amazing process with one defining principle, The body moves and holds bones better than I do. As my practice has grown and transformed, I have deepened my commitment to that principle. I help patients align their own bodies through breath, stretch, and connection.

Endeavor Health & Chiropractic

EHC is a place where participation is required. If you’re coming from a traditional chiropractic office, the idea of adjusting through you rather than to you may take some time to figure out. Open room adjusting can involve quiet conversations with Dr. Julie, walking around, stretching, or resting. As you learn more about your body, your movement during and after an adjustment will take its own shape. Nutrition assessments also go through you and not from a prefabricated protocols: your tastes and preferences determine what shows up in your healing guide.

I’m a wife, boy-mom, teacher, business owner, baker, and occasional gardener. All of these make me who I am. But these three are what I bring to your healing:

Skilled adjustor, using gentle adjusting, guided breath, and stretch to create the physical space that your body needs to heal.
Empath with an intuitive connection to bodies and foods that I use to guide adjustments and nutrition.
