Meet Dr. Brenna Erickson, DC, BA

Gentle Chiropractor, Functional Medicine Provider & Migraine Whisperer

Dr. Brenna Erickson offers a uniquely compassionate, integrative approach to chiropractic and functional medicine. She specializes in gentle, nervous system–centered care for people living with migraine, chronic stress, and complex illness — helping people who are already doing a lot to understand what's actually happening in their body, and build a sustainable path forward rather than one more thing to manage alone.

Expertise & Approach

As the only advanced practitioner of DNFT (Directional Non-Force Technique) chiropractic in Minnesota, Dr. Brenna uses precise, low-force adjustments to support the nervous system’s natural ability to heal and regulate. She complements this with craniosacral therapy to gently encourage fluid movement around the brain and spine, helping to reduce tension and neuroinflammation.

Her work is deeply informed by functional medicine, nutritional insights, and a trauma-informed philosophy that centers self-compassion and collaboration. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all treatment plans, Dr. Brenna meets you where you are, listening carefully to your story and co-creating a path toward balance and relief.

Dr. Brenna’s care may be the right fit for you if you are:

  • Seeking a calm, collaborative provider who truly listens.

  • Living with migraine, chronic stress, or a complex condition and want care that understands the full picture

  • Highly sensitive, neurodivergent, or easily overstimulated by traditional medical environments

  • Looking for a science-backed approach that’s also rooted in compassion, curiosity, and body-trust

  • Ready to explore the deeper “why” behind your symptoms—not just mask them

  • Feeling discouraged by mainstream care and longing to feel seen, empowered, and in tune with your body again

  • Curious about how nervous system healing, nutrition, and gentle touch can work together

Dr. Brenna has a grounded, real-deal style of teaching. I learn so much from every appointment. She’s so detail oriented and great at explaining what’s going on in my body, in a way that I can understand. Her treatments feel so gentle, I always sleep so well after an adjustment. I trust her implicitly.
