Chiropractors

Before starting Causey Chiropractic, Dr. Brittany Causey worked as an associate chiropractor in a physical medicine office in Desert Ridge for almost eight years. While there, she saw a wide array of patients from newborn babies to those in their late 90s. She loved getting to work with a team of providers and see so many different types of patients but realized that her passion was for pediatric, prenatal, and family wellness chiropractic care. Dr. Brittany loves to pursue continuing education in these areas and is certified in Webster technique, a specific chiropractic analysis and way of adjusting useful and safe in pregnancy.

Midwife & Doula Training

Arizona Midwife Licensing is for a person who attends a woman in childbirth, but who is not a physician. Midwifery (being "with woman") focuses on providing care to normal childbearing women and their newborns. In Arizona, there are two types of midwives who may legally assist a woman with childbirth: a certified nurse midwife and a licensed midwife.

DONA International is the leading certification organization for those looking to enter the field of being a Doula.
