Meet Our Staff
Lissa Whittenton
Lissa has the cumbersome job of running the entire front desk at the office single-handedly. And she does an amazing job! We have seen her go WAY out of her way for patients before (including solo performances of "Happy Birthday to You" down on her knees with her arms outstretched), and is a beloved fixture in the office.
Lissa was born in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and proudly refers to herself as a "Big Cheese-Head". Her Dad is Jesse Whittenton, who played football for the Green Bay Packers from 1958 - 1964.
"I suffered from migraines since the age of 3 and by age 18, I was unable to work or even get out of bed due to the excruciating pain." remembers Lissa. "All I could do was lie in bed and cry. My grandmother forced me to go to the chiropractor after exhausting all the available medical routes with no luck. After the first visit, the migraine was worse than it had ever been before and I informed my grandmother that I would NOT be returning to that doctor. My grandmother, being of Irish Catholic descent, informed ME: "Oh yes, You WILL be going back!"
"And.......so I did. By the third visit, my back and shoulders were loose and my headaches were gone!"
"I've been working here at Lifestyle Chiropractic for almost 8 years and believe that I'm truly blessed to have found these doctors! Not only for the care that I myself have received, but for the patients I see on a daily basis who share their progress with me. I have seen miracles worked here at this clinic, and I'm excited every day to be a part of it!"
Lissa spent 15 years working for the Hyatt Corporation in the past in such exotic places as Palm Springs, Long Beach, Hawaii and Kauai. She loves to dance, read, camp, horseback ride and water-ski.

"I've been around chiropractic and alternative medicine all my life", remembers Simone. "My sons all received their first adjustments on the very first day they were born, which got them all off to a healthy start. None of them ever had colic or had a vaccination, and none have ever been ill, other than a cold here and there. Chiropractic and all natural forms of health care have always played a huge part in my family's life."
