Introducing Billings Chiropractor Dr. Kimberly Meier

"I thought only people with back pain went to chiropractors," remembers Dr. Kimberly Meier. "A friend insisted that I try chiropractic since I suffered from headaches that would make me physically ill as a teenager. I just figured that headaches and painkillers would be a way of life for me. Reluctantly, I agreed to make my first appointment. Chiropractic opened my eyes to a new perspective on health. From the first adjustment, I knew that chiropractic was something powerful that I needed to learn more about!"

Billings Chiropractor, Dr. Kim Meier

Dr. Kim worked on her Bachelor of Science degree in Edmonton, Canada while playing volleyball for the Grant MacEwan College. "I would see a chiropractor on a regular basis to keep my body in top shape and prevent injuries," says Kim, "Once you understand more about how the body works, it just makes sense!" Kim participated in an exchange program in Perth, Australia, and it was there she decided chiropractic school was the next step in her education plans. Kim was accepted to Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa and, after four years of intensive study, she finished her chiropractic internship back in Canada.

Only months before graduation from chiropractic school, Kim crossed paths with a classmate, Jeff. She knew her plans to return to Canada were about to change. At 9am on the morning of their graduation day, Kim and Jeff were married just a few blocks up from their school. Four hours later they walked the graduation stage and became doctors of chiropractic together. Their sudden change in plans took the newlyweds over to Ireland, where they practiced for two years.

In 2006 the couple moved to Billings and opened Meier Family Chiropractic together.  "We have since been blessed with 2 girls, Sadie J. and Dylan Reese, and are enjoying the balance of family life and a busy practice."

Dr. Kim focuses her time on working with women and children. She is passionate about educating her practice members about the importance of chiropractic care for kids to give them a healthier start in life. Our philosophy is based on the concept that a proactive approach is more sensible than a reactive one. We want to inspire and lead people to be healthier, better human beings, not because they are afraid of, or trying to avoid getting sick, but because they want to be healthy and well, and want to get the most out of life!

"It is our passion to take care of entire families," says Kim. "Having a focus on pregnancy and pediatrics, I feel it is important for all babies to be checked by a chiropractor after the traumatic birth process. We know that ensuring children’s spine and nervous system are functioning at their best, not only contributes to their overall growth and development, but will produce a much healthier adulthood. Families who make choices for proactive health care are teaching their children that their health is a valuable asset. Young or old, everyone can benefit from better health through chiropractic care!"

Dr. Jeff  Asks some important questions of interest to Billings residents - Chiropractor Billings Dr. Jeff Asks...

What's the difference between sick care and health care?
Sick care is largely about relieving or suppressing symptoms. Health care is about improving performance. While sick care is about how you feel, health care is about how you function. Sick care is what you do to treat an obvious problem, and health care is what you do to avoid the problem and advance your well-being.
What's your plan to deal with drug-resistant 'super germs'?
Chiropractors have always been concerned with the indiscriminate use of antibiotics, accelerating the mutation of microbes that make "wonder" drugs increasingly ineffective. My strategy? Do everything possible to bolster my immune system through proper diet, rest, exercise, clean air, pure water and an optimally functioning nervous system with regular chiropractic care.
