About Dr. Crosser and Her Approach
Why Functional Medicine?
Over the last 50 years, healthcare has lost its way. Doctors have become too busy for patient-centered care, and we’ve lost sight of holistic health. You deserve a healthcare option that puts you first.
Our mission at Crosser Natural Health is to help patients resolve symptoms naturally, without side effects, and as quickly as possible.
In addition, we teach our patients how to achieve and maintain optimum health care through healthy lifestyle modifications, chiropractic, yoga, exercise, nutritional consulting, acupuncture, and more. We reach these recommendations through advanced testing and one-on-one consultations.
The personal transformation that patients can achieve with functional medicine and chiropractic is deeply rewarding as a clinician. Patients also tell us that their journeys are highly rewarding.
Dr. Crosser’s Story
For many years, I suffered with acne, constant back pain, difficulty sleeping…..
until I became a chiropractic patient.
Until I found natural medicine, I was doing all the “right” things that we still consider good health habits today: exercising consistently, eating a well-balanced, healthy diet, and taking a multivitamin. Still, I wasn’t well.
I had taken round after round of antibiotics, which included everything from topical to oral and, finally, weekly injections. It was while under the care of a chiropractor that the story began to change.
Not only did I find relief from my symptoms, but I also decided to change my career. I was going to become a chiropractor and function medicine practitioner. It was a very easy decision to leave the laboratory world and enter into patient care from a more natural perspective. I do believe that I already possessed the inclination towards understanding the body’s ability to heal itself, finally saw it work with my own health, which created a penchant to make a difference in my world, one patient at a time.
Dr. Crosser's Certifications and Credentials
It was in 1983 that I made the decision to attend Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa. Within the first week there, I knew that this would be a life altering experience that would change the way I view health and impact the people in my world from that moment forward. It was truly the first time in my life that I was surrounded by so many individuals with the same concept of learning and doing all that we knew we could do to not only get well, but to live as full and potent a lifestyle as we could every day of our lives!
What a great inspiration that was that would follow me my entire lifetime and that I could teach my patients!
Here's what our satisfied patients are saying...

It was incredibly helpful during pregnancy and I still look forward to every appointment. Dr. Crosser is wonderful and does fantastic work. She isn't there just to make money, she'll advise you if you need more frequent OR less frequent visits. She's super flexible with my schedule changes and just a wonderfully thoughtful individual. I wish she was closer to where I live because I know I'm going to keep going to her practice! Can't recommend enough.Norma Gannon2023-06-15I made an appointment with Dr. Crosser after reading her article about functional medicine and high blood pressure in Women's Journal. The genes testing relating to cardiovascular disease and hypertension was very informative. After meeting with Dr. Crosser for 3 months, I was able to reduce the three blood pressure medications I was taking to one, due to a combination of specific lab tests, diet, exercise and supplements recommended by Dr. Crosser. I have enjoyed my appointments with Dr. Crosser, as she is highly knowledgeable in her profession.Sharon Popky2023-06-09Dr. Crosser is amazing!

Get to Know a Little More about Dr. Crosser
Just as I recommend to my patients, I regularly receive regular chiropractic adjustments, eat a whole food, organic diet, exercise 5-6 days per week, and take nutritional supplementation to regenerate and rejuvenate my own body.
I find it necessary to invest significant effort into daily health habits to offset the effects of our lifestyles and the modern day environment, mentally and physically. This can be achieved, and it does take time. Certainly, it is worthwhile!!
I am a single parent of three: two daughters, ages 32 and 28, and a son, age 26. My personal time is spent primarily outdoors, at the gym swimming, in continuing education to assist my patients or with my family.
My favorite things to do are hiking, biking, backpacking, canoeing, and a close second……reading health journals or attending conferences!
Enough about me. Thanks for visiting our website, and I look forward to meeting with you face-to-face. Please give our office a call if you feel that you may have a health concern that we can work on together so you can continue living life to the fullest! We can arrange a time to discuss your options.
