Experience The Halverson Family Chiropractic Difference
We look at your spine through three lenses. Our structural, functional and neurological spinal exams gives us in depth knowledge of the health of your spine allowing us to tailor our care to your unique situation.
Structural
When your spine is shifted out of position it can cause extra tension on muscles and ligaments leading to headaches, neck pain, back pain and increase the chance of injury. Picture a car with a poor alignment, it will only drive so long before issues start popping up.
Functional
When your spine is not moving properly it can cause other areas of the spine to overcompensate leading to headaches, neck pain, back pain and increase the chance of injury. Imagine your right hand is stuck in your pocket so you carry in ALL the groceries with your left arm, it will only take the extra burden before it gives out.
Neurological
Your spine protects your spinal cord and all spinal nerves exit through your spine. Your spinal muscles send the most proprioceptive information to your brain. The nervous system controls and coordinates all organs and structures of the body. Problems in the spine can affect your nervous system.

Meet The Doctors
Dr. Nolan Halverson
Chiropractor
Originally from northern Minnesota, Nolan Halverson thrived in sports until a severe concussion in high school football threatened his future with a grim prognosis. Traditional medicine not only didn’t help but made him worse. Lucky, he found chiropractic care and it saved his life, finally providing relief and getting him off all pain medications. Chiropractic also lead to an unexpected enhancement in health and performance in his body. Inspired, Nolan pursued chiropractic education at Life West Chiropractic College, excelling academically and clinically. In 2022, Dr. Nolan established Halverson Family Chiropractic in Grapevine, Texas. His practice quickly became a community health cornerstone winning Best Chiropractor in Grapevine in 2022 and accumulating over 200 five star google reviews in three short years. Missing family and the midwest we sold our Texas practice to move back to Minnesota. Dr. Nolan is excited to bring his skills, knowledge and passion for health to the Stillwater community.
Dr. Brieanna Halverson
Chiropractor
Dr. Brie grew up in the Chicago suburbs, where her early experiences working as a nanny and in a daycare sparked a love for supporting children. She discovered a particular passion for helping kids who struggled with behavior and emotional regulation, which led her to earn a degree in Nonprofit Leadership Studies. Following this, Dr. Brie spent a year serving in Detroit public schools, working with elementary students and witnessing how stress can affect their nervous systems, impacting both behavior and learning. At the same time, Dr. Brie’s sister was in chiropractic school and shared stories of how chiropractic care helps people adapt to life’s stresses and thrive. Inspired by this, Dr. Brie shifted her career path from education to chiropractic, excited by the potential to support children’s growth and resilience. Today, she is dedicated to providing chiropractic care to children, helping them develop the physical and emotional foundation they need to reach their fullest potential.
What Makes Halverson Family Chiropractic So Different?
When you walk into a chiropractic office, you’re not just looking for an adjustment. You’re looking for someone who understands your body, your history, and your goals. At our practice, that understanding is built into everything we do. Five things consistently set our care apart, and they all begin with the foundation of how we were trained and how we approach every patient who comes through our doors.
Our education took place at Life Chiropractic College West, named the Top Chiropractic College of 2025 by Education Insider. From the first quarter, students gain hands-on clinical experience far earlier than at most other schools. Life West’s Clinically Inspired Learning model runs classroom study and real patient care side by side, so knowledge is applied immediately rather than learned in isolation. Students learn a wide range of techniques and finish with an extensive preceptorship in actual practices, graduating truly practice-ready. That early, immersive training still shapes how we work today.

Because of that foundation, we were taught and continue to learn a broad range of chiropractic techniques. Rather than graduating with one preferred method, we learned multiple approaches so we can match the technique to the patient instead of forcing every patient into the same system. Whether someone needs a gentler approach, an upper cervical focus, or a combination of methods, we have the tools to deliver care that fits the individual.
We also believe progress should be measurable, not just felt. Subjective improvement matters, but it is not enough on its own. That is why we use objective tracking. We examine spinal health in three areas, structural, functional and neurological and reassess at clear intervals, and measure change so both patient and doctor can see what is actually improving. This removes guesswork. When something works, we refine it. When it does not get the expected results, we adjust the plan quickly. Objective data keeps care honest and accountable.
That same commitment shows up in how we build care plans. Every plan is based on our exams and the patients goals. We take the time to understand the whole picture and design a plan that reflects it. Frequency, technique selection, supportive recommendations, and timelines all tailored to the person in front of us. This leads to care that is both what the patient needs and wants.
Finally, there is a personal reason this work matters so deeply. I have been in the patient’s shoes. I know what it feels like to search for answers, to wonder whether anyone is truly listening, and to hope the next practitioner will finally connect the dots. That lived experience shapes how we listen, how we explain findings, and how we set expectations. Empathy is not an add-on here; it is part of the clinical process.
These five elements—rigorous, early hands-on education at the Top Chiropractic College of 2025, a wide technical foundation, objective tracking, truly customized plans, and the perspective that comes from having been a patient in need form the core of how we practice. They are the practical reasons patients notice a difference in the quality of attention, the clarity of communication, and the results they experience. If you are looking for chiropractic care grounded in excellent training, adaptable technique, measurable progress, and genuine understanding, we built this practice for you.

What Could Not Fixing This Problem Cost You?
Procrastination is a thief of life.
I can’t tell you how many people we see that come into the office with a problem, and when we ask them when it first started, the answer is measured in years. Sometimes it’s five years. Sometimes it’s ten or twenty. It breaks my heart every time, because in most cases the problem was fixable. The longer it sits, the harder it becomes to fully restore. As a dad, my mind immediately goes to all the family time that’s lost or enjoyed less—the games that were sat out, the roughhousing that got skipped, the simple evenings on the floor that didn’t happen because something hurt too much. As a hunter, I think about the mornings in the woods that were cut short or never taken at all. As an athlete, I think about the games, the training sessions, and the competition that were either missed or performed at half capacity. These aren’t small losses. They add up into a quieter, smaller version of the life someone could have been living.
At our office we focus on how your body is functioning rather than how it is feeling. When the body is functioning correctly, the feeling usually takes care of itself. Unfortunately, too many patients only decide to seek care when they start feeling bad enough. The problem with that approach is that pain is usually the last thing to show up and the first thing to go away. It is kind of like the tip of the iceberg. Just because it’s the only thing you see doesn’t mean it’s the only thing that is there. Underneath the pain, the way your joints move, the way your muscles fire, and the way your nervous system communicates can all be compromised long before you feel the first sharp signal.

When those patients who have been dealing with a problem for years or decades finally start to function—and feel—better, one of the things almost every one of them says is, “I wish I would have found you guys earlier.” Not only could they have avoided years of unnecessary suffering, but if they had come in sooner we often could have helped them more completely. Matter has limitations. When something happens—whether it’s a car accident, a sports injury, or simply the slow accumulation of daily stress—your body begins to change. If we are able to address it right away, the chances of returning someone to their pre-injury status are much higher because those changes haven’t fully set in yet. The longer you wait, the more the changes become permanent. Scar tissue builds up. Movement patterns shift. Nerves can become chronically irritated. Joints lose their normal motion. If we see someone a long time after the original injury, there is still a good chance we can get them feeling better, but a certain amount of function may never fully return. And when the body cannot function at 100 percent, it becomes more vulnerable to future injuries.
Your body doesn’t want you to stay in pain forever, so it starts to adapt. Those adaptations are powerful, but they were never meant to be permanent solutions. For example, if you have knee pain on the right side, your body may begin favoring that leg and putting less weight on it with every step. That changes the way you walk. The altered gait then places extra stress on your lower back. At the same time, the left knee is forced to carry more load than it was designed for. Over time you can end up with two bad knees and a chronically irritated back—all because the original problem was never properly addressed. A lot of the time these adaptations allow people to feel better even while overall function continues to decline. The pain may quiet down for a while, giving the false impression that the problem has resolved. Then, months or years later, it returns—often worse than before.
When patients look back and wish they had come in sooner, it is because they finally see how much time, energy, and money they spent managing a problem that could have been handled more effectively early on. They realize the family moments that were dimmed, the outdoor days that were shortened, and the athletic pursuits that never reached their full potential. Waiting almost never helps. It simply hides the underlying issue, creates compensatory problems in other areas of the body, and turns what might have been a temporary injury into a chronic condition.
The last thing any of us wants is the quiet regret of knowing we should have taken care of something sooner. When dealing with a chronic health problem, I think of it like planting a tree. They say the best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago, but the second best time is now. The same is true for your health. The years already spent dealing with the problem cannot be recovered, but the years ahead of you are still available.
Don’t let procrastination steal any more of them. Schedule your appointment with one of our doctors today and give your body the chance to function the way it was designed to.
