My Story

Dr.​ ​Stephanie Foust​ ​received​ ​her​ ​Bachelor​ ​of​ ​Science​ ​in​ ​Human​ ​Biology​, ​and​ ​Doctorate​ ​of​ ​Chiropractic​ ​from Northwestern​ ​Health​ ​Sciences​ ​University in 2015.​ ​​ ​While​ ​at​ ​Northwestern​, ​Stephanie​ ​had​ ​the​ ​privilege​ ​to​ ​intern under​ ​a​ ​chiropractor​ ​specializing​ ​in​ ​care​ ​for​ ​pediatric​ ​​and​  ​pre​/post​ ​pregnancy patients.​ ​She has​ ​a​ ​strong​ ​passion​ ​for​ ​educating​ ​families​ ​on​ ​the​ ​importance​ ​of ​starting​ ​chiropractic​ ​care​ ​at​ ​a​ ​young​ ​age and continuing through the different stages of life. 

Chiropractic​ ​has​ ​made​ ​a​ ​huge​ ​impact​ ​on​ ​her​ ​family,​ ​and​ ​the​ ​quality​ ​of​ ​the​ ​life​ ​they​ ​lead.​ ​Seeing​ ​her​ ​son begin​ ​to​ ​thrive​ ​under​ ​chiropractic​ ​care​ ​changed​ ​her​ ​world.​ ​​ ​She​ ​chose​ ​to​ ​go​ ​to​ ​chiropractic​ ​school​ ​after chiropractic​ ​treatments​ ​and​ ​nutritional​ ​interventions​ ​eliminated​ ​her​ ​son’s​ ​ear​ ​infections​, ​and​ ​significantly reduced​ ​his​ ​complications​ ​to​ ​a​ ​congenital​ ​abnormality.​ ​Now​ ​that​ ​she​ ​has​ ​finished​ ​chiropractic​ ​school,​ ​she is​ ​excited​ ​to​ ​move​ ​into​ ​her​ ​career​ ​by​ ​repaying​ ​her​ ​positive​ ​experiences​ ​and​ ​sharing​ ​what​ ​chiropractic​ ​has given​ ​to​ ​her​ ​family. 

She​ ​has​ ​continued​ ​her​ ​postgraduate​ ​education​ ​and​ ​training​ ​through many organizations and in different ways. Her Certification by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics (CACCP) was earned in 2017 through extensive examination, research projects, and over 200 hours of classroom education, resulting in further knowledge of pediatrics and perinatal patient populations.​ ​She​ also ​holds​ ​a certification​ ​in​ ​the​ ​Webster​ ​Technique,​ ​a​ ​way​ ​of​ ​relieving​ ​intrauterine​ ​constraint​ ​and​ ​balancing​ ​the​ ​pelvis to​ ​allow​ ​for​ ​the​ ​baby​ ​to​ ​be​ ​in​ ​the​ ​best​ ​possible​ ​position​ ​for​ ​birth.​ ​​ ​

Another​ ​passion​ ​of​ ​hers​ ​is​ ​myofascial taping​ ​and​ ​exploring​ ​new​ ​methods​ ​of​ ​taping​ ​to​ ​reduce​ ​inflammation,​ ​pregnancy discomfort​, ​and​ ​adjust​ ​improper​ ​posture which she utilizes through her ​ROCKTAPE​ ​certification​ ​of​ ​FMT​ ​I​ ​, II, and Pediatrics. In 2018, she furthered her interest in caring for moms by completing BIRTHFIT training to better meet moms where they are in their health journey. Along with this, she has received training in Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM), or the Graston technique M1.

Stephanie​ ​and​ ​her​ ​family​ ​are​ ​originally​ ​from​ ​Des​ ​Moines,​ ​IA​, ​and​ ​she​ ​is​ ​enjoying​ ​what​ ​Minnesota​ ​has​ ​to offer​ ​with​ ​her​ ​husband,​ ​Jamie,​ ​and​ ​their​ ​children,​ ​Remington,​ ​Thane,​ ​and​ ​Campbell.​ ​Everyone​ ​has become involved in​ ​their​​ ​community​ ​through​ ​involvement​ ​in​ ​local​ ​Boy​ ​and​ ​Girl​ ​Scouting​ ​events,​ ​ballet performances​, and various sports activities.​ ​​ ​Happiness​ ​is​ ​being​ ​active​ ​and​ ​healthy together​, ​whether​ ​volunteering​ ​in​ ​the​ ​community,​ ​staying​ ​fit​ ​through​ ​weekly​ ​activities​ ​and​ ​chiropractic adjustments,​ ​or​ ​relaxing​ ​on​ ​the​ ​beach​ ​of​ ​Lake​ ​Harriet!
