Alyssa Salava started running in 8th grade and ran track and cross country throughout high school and university. She struggled with injuries during university including a multitude of stress fractures. She later learned the push to be thinner from her coaches and lack of nutrition was a huge factor in her health. She found chiropractic school and was able to heal her body and find a healthy relationship with running on the trails. She now specializes in pediatrics and pre/post natal care with a growing passion to help moms get back into running after giving birth.
