Dr. Chris Foster, DC
Owner of Right Health Clinic
Up until his mid 40’s, Chris Foster never imagined the journey he would soon embark upon. It was one of those “right place, right time” occurrences that set the wheels in motion that would transformed him from being in the construction industry for 25 years to graduating near the top of his class as a Doctor of Chiropractic at 50 years old.
Now, some 15 years later, he continues to live the experience that one of the influential chiropractors he visited over the years as a patient had shared with him.
Dr. Drew responded with a simple statement that Chris Foster never forgot. “Because, in my office, a miracle happens every week for one of my patients. Whether it involves less chronic pain, fewer headaches, or perhaps a complete turnaround in their overall health, it is a significant change for that patient.
It may be a small miracle to others, but for my patient, it can be a life changing.”
That statement set all of what happened afterwards in motion. Now, looking back, Dr. Foster will tell you that it is the complete truth. As chiropractors around the world all know, what they do for people can literally change their patients’ lives for the better. Now, if that’s not incentive, I don’t know what is.

Christine Skelton
Nutritionist
Christine Skelton has been in the health and wellness field for well over 20 years. Her passion is to help others achieve their full health potential. She started out as a manager at a small health club in California. She ran the facility, taught classes and provided personal training, eventually getting certified as a personal trainer and fitness nutrition specialist. After 15 years with the health club she decided to open her own personal training studio. In the summer of 2013, Christine and her family moved to Colorado Springs. Shortly after moving here, she started to experience her own debilitating health crisis. Traditional Medicine was not providing her with answers to her health questions, nor providing solutions to her health crisis. It was years before she was able to slowly learn on her own the answers to some of her own questions. This inspired her to learn all that she could to help others in similar scenarios. She decided to continue her education specifically in the field of Functional Medicine/Nutrition. She is currently continuing her study through the Functional Medicine University. She wants to continue to learn as much as possible to help others with their overall health, weight loss, and nutrition. She believes in taking a whole-body approach to her own health and to the health of others. Christine would love the opportunity to hear your personal story and help direct you on your own path of discovery. Disease is not just a process of recovery, but a process of discovery!
