Meet the Team at Freedom Chiropractic

Karen Seiter

Hi! My name is Karen Seiter – I mainly work the StemWave Technology machine here at Freedom! I have always seemed to have such a passion for natural health and the way that God designed our bodies to be able to heal naturally. I started getting adjusted in High School when my brother in law and sister introduced me to the health benefits of being proactive with my health. I went to school at the Center for Healing Arts & Massage and worked as a reflexologist in Marietta, GA for 4 years at Serenite Spa.

Dr. Dan and I have been married since October of 2006. We met through church while Dr. Dan was going to mechanical engineering school and while I was working as a dental assistant. Since then, we have raised 5 beautiful girls. We have raised our kids under chiropractic care, and I was adjusted throughout all of my pregnancies and was able to have 5 wonderful natural births!

I think my greatest desire is to see each individual live life abundantly. So many people are dealing with everyday pain and they think that it is normal! But what if they felt great? How much better can they then go and serve the people that they are surrounded with well!?

Billing Coordinator, Jamie

Jamie was born and raised in Grand Rapids and has never strayed too far from it. She has a passion for all living things, whether that be plants, animals, or people. She grew up working for her dad’s landscape business which cultivated a love for the outdoors and playing in the dirt. This led to work as a Licensed Veterinary Nurse for 8 years before she joined the team at Freedom Chiropractic in March of 2021.

Jamie and her husband welcomed their first child in May of 2020 which prompted her change in career. She had been craving more time with her growing family, and her work here at the practice is a perfect fit. She now has 2 sons and feels so blessed to have more time with them in these important early years of their lives.

She discovered chiropractic care as Dr. Dan’s patient in 2017 and has since learned SO much about general health and how to best support our bodies. She came to him with headaches and some lower back pain from wrestling dogs at work all day. Through Dr. Dan’s care and passion for educating patients, Jamie now lives life pain free. She says that she loves that here at Freedom, we believe in letting the body heal and function as the Lord created it to.

When Jamie is not at work, you can find her hanging out with her boys outside. They spend a lot of time at the lake or the park in the summer. When they can sneak away for a date night, she and her husband enjoy trying new, local breweries and restaurants around Grand Rapids, or catching a concert, as they enjoy live music. Fun fact about Jamie is that she loves to travel when able, and she had the opportunity to spend a month in Africa working with rhinos and other wildlife there.

Chiropractic Assistant, Rachel

Say hello to Rachel, a positive force at our front desk since September 2023. Grateful for the opportunity to connect with patients, she values faith and family above all. Rachel recently tied the knot with her husband, Brandon, and is in the process of earning her Bachelor of Clinical Exercise Science degree.

Inspired by her own experience with back pain and shoulder injuries, Rachel aspires to utilize her degree in chiropractic or physical science. Her passion lies in helping schools and sports players develop effective warm-up and cool-down routines to prevent injuries. Rachel is committed to greeting you and your loved ones with a warm smile and continuing to share her positivity and prayers with patients both young and old.

Chiropractic Assistant, Melissa

My name is Melissa and I’ve been married to my husband for the past 21 years. We have been blessed with 2 kids, their ages 15 and 18. I originally went to Grand Valley State University, then transferred to Baker College, to graduate with an Associate’s Degree in Applied Health Science. I have about 25 years of experience in healthcare, first starting out as a Physical Therapist Assistant.
About 2 years ago, I transitioned to Freedom Chiropractic, working for Dr. Dan as a Chiropractic Assistant. I love to help people help themselves, so my job is to give our patients tools to help them outside of the office so that they can continue to pour into and improve their health daily. One of my passions is pelvic health, specifically to help women understand their bodies and all their seasons of life.
