Dr. Kristina Pellegrino grew up in beautiful Truckee, CA and after graduating from Truckee High School, she went on to receive her Bachelor's Degree of Science in Business Management from Sonoma State University. Several years later, she had a great job, with great coworkers, and great benefits but felt like something was missing. After doing some research and taking a tour at Life Chiropractic College West, she fell in love with the chiropractic philosophy and the potential the human body can express when in the proper alignment. She found her true calling!
Dr. Pellegrino graduated from Life Chiropractic College West, with honors (cum laude). During her time in chiropractic school, she was active in Student Council, the League of Chiropractic Women, and Extremities Club.
Dr. Pellegrino's main mission is to help others live life to their full potential. She thoroughly assesses each patient and delivers treatment to each patient as an individual. She has experience in adjusting people in all phases of life and strongly believes that every man, woman, and child can greatly benefit from chiropractic care. In addition to chiropractic college, Dr. Pellegrino has also received formal training in a wide variety of techniques, is also a Certified Chiropractic Extremities Practitioner (CCEP), which involves over 100 hours of post doctorate education in extremity adjusting, Webster Certified, which is a technique to support a more comfortable, safer, and easier birth, and is a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA).
Dr. Sydney Foster is a Reno native who grew up loving the great surroundings and fun activities this area has to offer. She had a love for dance and cheerleading throughout childhood and into high school, as well as nannying and helping families with childcare.
Dr. Foster always had a strong interest in anatomy & physiology, which began her journey to obtain a Bachelor's degree in Community Health Science. She completed her degree at the University of Nevada, Reno and knew she would not stop there. After being a chiropractic patient throughout undergrad, she knew her values aligned with the same philosophy--that the body is capable of healing itself without interference.
She then took a leap of faith and moved across the country to Marietta, Georgia to pursue her Doctorate of Chiropractic at Life University. There she was involved in the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) Club and took multiple courses focused on chiropractic care for children and pregnancy. Dr. Foster was also trained in a diverse set of techniques to be able to care for all populations.
After starting a family while in school, she knew she had to move back to Reno to allow them to grow up, as she did. She enjoys serving the community and being a part of each patient's healing and healthy lifestyle!
Dr. Julianna Oates was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. She started her college career at Saint Mary’s College of California where she interned with their Sports Medicine Department as a student athletic trainer. It was during that time that she was exposed to the practice of chiropractic and learned how impactful it was for the student athletes being treated. After getting her bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology, she attended Palmer College of Chiropractic West. In addition to studying in school, she participated in several clubs and attended multiple seminars allowing her to find her true passion for prenatal and pediatric care. She completed her preceptorship in Denver, CO with a well-established pediatric/prenatal chiropractor and continues to take post-graduate classes within that specialty. She is currently in the process of becoming Webster Certified and is very excited to become specialized as a pediatric/prenatal chiropractor. When she isn’t in the clinic, you can find her spending time with her fiancé, 2-year-old son and dog (Luna).
Dr. Lucas Tichawa is a passionate chiropractor and a 2023 graduate of Life Chiropractic College West. After spending five years working in Western medicine as a medical sales representative and intraoperative neuromonitoring technician, Dr. Tichawa transitioned to chiropractic care, seeking a profession that offered a deeper, more personal connection with patients and emphasized preventative care. His experience working in spinal fusion surgeries inspired him to pursue a career focused on holistic healing and the well-being of individuals before resorting to extreme measures like surgery.
Dr. Tichawa’s journey into chiropractic was also deeply influenced by his interactions with other chiropractors who were incredibly connected to their work. Their sense of purpose and fulfillment sparked his own desire to practice a profession that allowed him to have a meaningful impact on people's lives every day. Today, Dr. Tichawa is thrilled to be practicing chiropractic and is dedicated to helping his patients achieve optimal health.
Specializing in Diversified chiropractic techniques, as well as Drop Table and Activator methods, Dr. Tichawa has a particular passion for working with pregnant mothers and babies. He finds great joy in helping these individuals maintain healthy, pain-free lives.
When he’s not in the office, Dr. Tichawa enjoys spending time outdoors with his wife and two-year-old son. They love hiking, camping, visiting national parks, and playing frisbee golf. Dr. Tichawa and his wife dream of one day owning a homestead where they can raise animals and grow their own food, continuing their passion for a healthy, sustainable lifestyle.
Dr. Tichawa is grateful to be living his dream as a chiropractor, helping others experience a life of health and wellness.
