Dr. Michelle Litzinger

Dr. Michelle Litzinger, is an experienced licensed chiropractor that is excited to be practicing at Thrive
Chiropractic in Boise Idaho. She studied exercise physiology at California State University, Dominguez
Hills where she received a basketball scholarship. Dr. Litzinger studied physical therapy for a short time
and turned to chiropractic training when it proved to be effective for relieving her severe neck pain and
back spasms from an auto accident.
Dr. Litzinger attended Cleveland Chiropractic College in Los Angeles, where she graduated in 2007
magna cum laude with a Doctor of Chiropractic.
In 2010, she opened a chiropractic office in Lakewood, California which she later transitioned into an
integrated practice that allowed her to work alongside a medical doctor, nurse practitioner and physical
therapist. Her multi-Disciplinary practice allowed her to implement innovative cellular therapies to
patients to avoid surgery. This continues to be a passion of Dr. Litzinger’s and she is excited to continue
educating patients on non-surgical methods to help restore normal joint function.
In 2021 Dr Litzinger decided to take a leap of faith. She sold her practice in 2021 and decided to move
herself and her 8-year-old son to Idaho to enjoy the beautiful city and amazing people.
Dr Litzinger spent her free time in California as a volunteer with the YMCA strong kids campaign and its
annual auction, she was a member of the Soroptimist International of Lakewood/Long Beach since 2011,
she chaired the Lakewood fundraiser for three years; a partnership with the Lakewood Sheriff’s Station.
