Health & Wellness

Mindy H. Pelz, DC, has been serving health to her community for over twenty years. After receiving an undergraduate degree in exercise physiology and nutrition from the University of Kansas, she went on to get her doctorate in chiropractic from Palmer West College of Chiropractic, where she graduated with clinical honors. Dr. Mindy knows what it’s like to have your health taken from you. At a young age, she was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and told to drop out of school and wait for medication to work. Refusing to believe the prognosis the doctors gave her, she went searching for answers. Her personal journey back to health ignited a voracious passion in her to understand why the human body breaks down—and how these breakdowns can be fixed by removing toxins, adding in good nutrition, and working with the healing laws of the body. In the 20 years she has been in practice, Dr. Mindy has helped tens of thousands of people reset their health. Her unique approach to health and her passion for nutrition has led her to work with professionals, Olympic and collegiate athletes, Academy Award–winning actors, professional musicians, and Silicon Valley CEOs. She lectures all over the country and has been hired by numerous corporations to help their employees reduce stress, maximize their nutrition, and remove harmful toxins from their life so they can be healthier, happier, more productive people. Raising a family of her own, Dr. Mindy is deeply concerned about the toxic world our children are growing up in today and the breakdown many women are experiencing in their perimenopausal years. Dr. Mindy believes that healthy adults start with healthy children. In her own practice, she works closely with all members of many families to give them a toolset to steer their health in whatever direction they choose. The principles she teaches empower every family member to be the boss of their own health and give them a path to predictable health—free of disease, drugs, and surgeries. Still maintaining an active wellness practice, Dr. Mindy lives in Silicon Valley with her husband and two teenage kids.
