Have you ever wondered why some families seem to radiate vitality and wellness, moving through life’s challenges with remarkable resilience? The secret often lies not in what medications they take or diets they follow, but in how well their nervous systems function. Our nervous system—the master control network that coordinates every function in our bodies—plays a critical role in our overall health that many traditional healthcare approaches overlook. When this system operates optimally, everything from immune response to emotional regulation works better, creating a foundation for genuine wellness that medication alone simply cannot provide.
This understanding of nervous system health as the cornerstone of overall wellness forms the foundation of Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness in Rochester, Minnesota. Opening its doors in September 2024, this practice isn’t just another healthcare facility—it’s a welcoming environment where families find personalized care that addresses their unique needs.
In a world where healthcare often feels fragmented and impersonal, Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness offers something different: a holistic approach that treats patients as whole individuals, not collections of symptoms requiring quick fixes.
At the core of this innovative practice is Dr. Laura Zett, a chiropractor whose approach to wellness extends far beyond traditional spinal adjustments. With deep roots in nearby Byron, Minnesota, Dr. Laura created Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness with a clear vision: to establish a space where patients experience the same sense of belonging and support that drew her back to the area during the pandemic to raise her family.
Her unique perspective combines rigorous professional training with personal understanding as both a mother and former collegiate athlete, allowing her to connect with patients on multiple levels while providing evidence-based care tailored to their specific circumstances.
The Elevate Approach to Family Wellness
What sets Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness apart is their fundamental philosophy that true health means much more than simply eliminating pain or managing symptoms. Rather than focusing solely on temporary relief, Dr. Laura’s approach centers on creating lasting nervous system adaptability—essentially improving your body’s ability to respond appropriately to life’s continuous challenges.
This neurologically-based chiropractic care addresses the root causes of health issues by optimizing the communication pathways between your brain and body, allowing natural healing mechanisms to function at their best. The result? Improvements across multiple systems, from better sleep and digestion to enhanced immune function and emotional regulation.
This comprehensive approach benefits family members across all life stages, making Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness truly a family wellness center. Infants benefit from gentle adjustments that can help with common issues like colic, reflux, and sleep disturbances. Children experience support for developmental milestones, improved concentration, and stronger immunity.
Teens and adults find relief from sports injuries, stress-related tension, and productivity-limiting discomfort. Even seniors discover improved mobility, balance, and quality of life. By creating a practice where the entire family can receive care under one roof, Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness eliminates the need for multiple specialists and fosters a continuous, connected approach to wellness that adapts with your family’s changing needs.
Dr. Laura Zett’s Journey and Expertise
Dr. Laura’s path to chiropractic excellence began long before she opened Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness. A graduate of Northwestern Health Sciences University, she completed her education in 2020 during the height of the pandemic—a challenging time that reinforced her commitment to providing compassionate, accessible healthcare.
Her formal training is enhanced by specialized certifications, including Webster Technique certification for prenatal care and certification as a Strength and Conditioning Coach from the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). These credentials reflect her dedication to offering comprehensive care that addresses the unique needs of various patient populations, from expecting mothers to competitive athletes.
What truly distinguishes Dr. Laura’s approach, however, is her personal connection to the Rochester community. With deep roots in nearby Byron, Minnesota, her decision to return to the area during the pandemic was driven by a desire to raise her family with the support of the community. This homecoming experience directly inspired the creation of Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness—a practice designed to provide that same sense of belonging and support to patients.
Her experiences working in both pain-based and family wellness chiropractic settings gave her valuable insights into creating a practice that bridges these approaches, addressing immediate concerns while building long-term health foundations. This community-centered perspective ensures that patients receive care that’s not only technically excellent but also emotionally supportive and personally relevant.
Specialized Care for Every Life Stage
Pregnancy brings profound physical changes that can challenge even the healthiest body. Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness offers specialized prenatal chiropractic care using the Webster Technique—a method designed to restore balance to the pelvis and optimize nervous system function during pregnancy.
This gentle approach can help alleviate common discomforts like lower back pain, sciatica, and round ligament pain while potentially supporting optimal fetal positioning for birth. Postpartum care is equally important, addressing the physical stresses of delivery, supporting recovery, and helping new mothers adapt to the physical demands of infant care, including nursing positions that can strain the neck and upper back.

For the youngest family members, pediatric chiropractic care at Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness offers gentle, age-appropriate techniques that bear little resemblance to adult adjustments. Using pressure no greater than what you’d use to test a ripe tomato, these subtle interventions can help address issues such as torticollis (neck tightness), nursing difficulties, sleep challenges, and ear infections without the need for medication.
Parents often report improvements in their children’s sleep patterns, immune function, and even behavioral regulation following consistent chiropractic care. Dr. Laura’s approach recognizes that early intervention can help establish optimal nervous system patterns during critical developmental windows.
Active individuals of all ages benefit from Elevate’s sports and performance-focused chiropractic care. Drawing on her extensive athletic background—including 16 years as a gymnast and experience as a collegiate pole vaulter—Dr. Laura brings unique insights into sports-related challenges.
Her approach combines spinal adjustments with specific soft tissue techniques and movement assessments to improve biomechanics, enhance recovery, and prevent injuries. Whether you’re a weekend warrior, competitive athlete, or simply someone who wants to move without pain, this specialized care helps maintain optimal function during physical activities while supporting faster recovery when injuries do occur.

The Welcoming Elevate Experience
Walking into Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness feels markedly different from entering a typical healthcare facility. The space has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate families, with comfortable seating areas where children can play while parents receive care. The practice’s “Mama’s Room” exemplifies this family-first approach—a dedicated space stocked with essentials for nursing mothers and young children.
This attention to detail creates an environment where parents don’t need to stress about bringing children to appointments, and where multiple family members can receive care in a single visit. Many patients remark that visits to Elevate feel more like catching up with friends than medical appointments, reflecting the genuine connections Dr. Laura builds with those under her care.
New patients at Elevate Chiropractic and Wellness experience a thorough onboarding process designed to understand their unique health concerns and goals. Initial consultations include discussions of health history, neurological assessments, and, when appropriate, specialized testing to identify the root causes of presenting issues. Dr. Laura takes time to explain findings in an accessible language, empowering patients with knowledge about their own bodies and health status.
Treatment plans are individually tailored rather than predetermined, with clear explanations of recommended approaches and expected outcomes. This transparent, educational approach helps patients become active participants in their wellness journey rather than passive recipients of care, fostering a collaborative relationship that supports lasting results.
