Chiropractor
Kevin Krautsack, D.C.
Dr. Krautsack is a childhood cancer survivor passionate about teaching others how the body heals, how to eat right and exercise properly, and ultimately how to thrive in an increasingly toxic world. Through his sickness and fight back to health, he has gained a wealth of information regarding nutrition, the human body, and ultimately what it takes to get well.
He loves to share this knowledge with the world. He obtained his Doctor of Chiropractic Degree from Life University and B.S. of Health Science and Exercise Physiology from Kennesaw State University.
Chiropractic Assistant/Office Manager
Jesse Neal
Jesse grew up in Oregon and he obtained his Bachelors from Oregon State University in Fisheries and Wildlife. He enjoys hunting, fishing, and other outdoor activities, and spending time with his family. Before employment at Emerald City Family Chiropractic, Jesse started as a patient.
Struggling with severe hand pain and carpal tunnel symptoms, his wife convinced him to see a chiropractor. After attending one of Dr. Krautsack’s workshops, he had a revelation and decided to pursue the correction of the underlying cause of his health problems. After just a few adjustments, his hand pain went away and surgery became an afterthought. His treatment was so impactful to him and his family that he decided to pursue employment with Emerald City Family Chiropractic. Jesse has now helped hundreds of patients get well and improve their health through customized rehab programs alongside Dr. Krautsack.
Jesse was so impressed that he applied for a chiropractic assistant (CA) position, working directly under Dr. Krautsack in the summer of 2019. Since then, he has earned his C.A. license and established his role as the Office Manager.
Licensed Massage Therapist
Michelle Krein, L.M.T.
Michelle started practicing massage at the age of 18 while attending Rogue Community College in Grants Pass, OR. Shortly after, she decided to pursue a different career path in marketing and has worked a handful of jobs where she was able to gain a lot of new skills and experience – everything from customer service to online advertising.
However, she never stopped practicing massage on friends and family. In 2017, she decided to return to her first love – massage – and attended the massage program at Lane Community College in Eugene, OR.
“I wanted to be able to help people again, even if it’s just to help relieve stress from their day job.”
While the marketing experience was great, and she is able to use her skills at Emerald City Family Chiropractic, she really enjoys helping people feel better and finding some stress or pain relief through massage. Michelle was also quite an accident-prone athletic teenager and knows how big of an impact massage, chiropractic care, and nutrition play a big role in one’s overall health.
In her free time, Michelle enjoys watching college football (Go Ducks!) and DIY projects such as refinishing furniture or flipping thrift pieces.
