About Dr. Juilene H. Johnston, DC

I am a 1993 chiropractic graduate of the National University of Health Sciences and a 1988 graduate of Texas A&M University.

My work and treatments are a synthesis of numerous manual therapy techniques that I have spent the past 30 years studying from talented teachers from all over the world in addition to my chiropractic schooling. My passion for helping people heal has me continually training, assisting in classes and leading study groups throughout the year.

I have continued studies in the following:

  • Visceral Manipulation with the Barral Institute where I am also a Teaching Assistant and Study Group leader.
  • Neural and Vascular Release also with the Barral Institute.
  • Cranial Sacral Release with multiple teachers and techniques.
  • Joint Mobilization and Manipulation with the Barral Institute, Dr. Ron Murray, DO, others and, of course, my chiropractic training.
  • Fascial Release work with the Barral Institute, Judith Aston, Susan Grimshaw, MSPT, Dr. Ron Murray, DO and others.
  • Trauma Recovery Therapies – Hakomi for Body Workers with Morgan Halford with the Hakomi Institute (a year long training), Attachment Based Yoga and Meditation for Trauma Recovery with Deirdre Fay (another year long study program), multiple workshops with Trauma Recovery expert Ruby Jo Walker and other trauma recovery studies.
  • Pelvic Floor Therapy for both men and women using external and internal approaches with the Barral Institute and Lauren Rose, MSPT who is both my mentor and teacher. I currently run the pelvic floor therapy for Northwest New Mexico Women’s Health Specialists’ four B/GYN’s two days a week in conjunction with my own practice.
  • Master Reiki Practitioner – I incorporate where appropriate many energy modalities with Reiki being one approach that I use to help patients.

My practice has also been influenced by my experience and background as:

  • An athlete – National level Swimming for 12 years, Martial Arts, Horseback Riding and assisting training horses, Yoga, Jogging and Hiking.
  • Mother of four now young adult ‘kids’.

Ongoing learning and practice in:
