Dr. Heather grew up in Nevada City and returned here in 2009 with her husband and small son Jacob to join her father, Dr. Dale Jacobson’s chiropractic practice.  It had always been a dream of hers to work with her father, to be able to have her hands as her tools and help people in a visible, tangible way every day.  As a chiropractor, she specializes in pregnancy and postpartum work, as well as babies and children.  She is passionate about vibrant health and bringing all the aspects of that together: the physical, nutritional, mental, emotional and spiritual.
 
Since 2009, Dr. Heather has had two more sons and has learned a lot in private practice.  She continues to love her work in chiropractic, and she also does a lot of craniosacral therapy and myofascial release work.  She has developed a comprehensive tool kit to help with her pregnant and post-partum mamas.  This includes an in-depth patient health screen, quality nutritional supplements, comprehensive blood panels at huge savings, a great website with many resources including an exercise video she did with local pilates instructor Wendi August.  She has been through so much herself with three pregnancies, births and kids she is just helpful to talk to and ask questions of.  She is also really passionate about screening her mamas for adrenal health (stress response system) dysfunctions, thyroid disorders and general post-partum exhaustion. 

She feels that chiropractic care during pregnancy is important because it can so often lead to a more enjoyable pregnancy and easier birth.  And this can be huge in bringing the baby into the world in a way that can possibly postiviely affect the baby’s whole life.  This is why she is offering a New Mama Special at a $50 discount.  Also, craniosacral therapy can really be helpful for infants in their recovery from intrauterine constraints and birth, for colic, tummy upsets, sleep and more and Dr. Heather is offering $20 off for new baby visits.

Her website is excellent at www.jacobsonchiropracticinc.com

“I initially visited Heather Hunt at 37 weeks pregnant with my first child. Since the beginning of my second trimester, I suffered from Symphsis Pubis Dysfunction, though I didn't know there was a name for the pain I was experiencing. Immediately, I became a believer in the power of chiropractic work and Heather's practice. Not only did she listen attentively to me, she also relieved my pain completely during those last weeks of pregnancy with the help of a support belt! 
 
I have since been a patient of Dr. Hunt's during my second and recent third pregnancy, and she has now become a friend and great resource to me. When my second child was born, I took him to see Heather for craniosacral therapy after he stopped bearing weight on his legs at 6 months old. During this time of fearful uncertainty, she gave me a voice to advocate for my son and served as a compassionate listening ear. 
 
Over the past four years, Heather has been our go-to chiropractor when one of my boys fell down a stairwell, when our family survived a car accident, and when I was overdue with my daughter and extremely uncomfortable. Her calming presence has been so assuring to me during my pregnancies, and it is incredible to watch how my children completely relax in her hands during their appointments. I am forever grateful to Heather for the numerous ways she has cared for my family. Her passion for caring for women and children makes our community a better place!” 
 
Sincerely, 
Jaleen Davidson
