Meet Dr. Joel Fenske

A lifelong Minnesotan, Dr. Joel Fenske was raised on his family’s rural Paynesville farm. The hard work required on the farm is what led Dr. Joel to the local chiropractor’s office – after a few long days of walking the bean fields and pulling weeds (yes, you are reading that correctly!), he was suffering from some significant mid back pain.

As it turned out, he was having muscle spasms due to an irritation of his back and ribcage. After seeing their local chiropractor and experiencing significant relief after just one visit, it left an impression on him that he would never forget!

Meet Dr. Shannon, Acupuncturist

Dr. Shannon Robinson is a licensed acupuncturist and herbalist with a Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine from Northwestern Health Sciences University. She is nationally board-certified by the NCCAOM and licensed by the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice.

Her journey into the healing arts was deeply influenced by her personal experiences caring for terminally ill family members. These formative years sparked her interest in holistic health, combining physical care with emotional, mental, and spiritual support. This led her to pursue a career in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
