Meet Our Team
Dr. Michael Brown
Founder / Chiropractor
Dr. Michael Brown is co-founder and co-owner of Awaken Health Chiropractic, with his wife, Tiffany. He was born and raised in Utah. In his youth, he enjoyed playing soccer, performing on stage, and, as an Eagle Scout, staffed Timberline Leadership Training Camp and Beaver High Adventure Base for B.S.A. After serving a 2-year mission for his church in Houston, Texas, he attended Brigham Young University, earning his bachelor’s degree in Family Science. He was a dance scholarship recipient for three of his years at BYU, and as a member of the BYU International Folk Dance Ensemble, toured all around the world.
During a dance performance, Dr. Michael suffered an accident from which a chiropractor helped him recover. At this time, he was already considering a career in chiropractic, having originally been inspired toward the field of natural healing by his grandfather, Dr. John R. Christopher, a world-renowned master herbalist and founder of The School of Natural Healing. Dr. Christopher had firsthand experience with the power of chiropractic when, as a young man, he overcame paralysis sustained in an auto accident. Although Dr. Michael had intended on becoming a chiropractor earlier in life, he found himself on a different career path after marrying Tiffany and starting their family. After a number of years, and with his wife’s encouragement and support, he realized that he was meant to be a chiropractor.
Dr. Michael and Tiffany moved their family to the beautiful suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia to attend chiropractic school. He graduated magna cum laude with his Doctorate of Chiropractic from Life University, the largest and most prestigious chiropractic college in the world. He then interned in Knoxville, Tennessee, at one of the state’s premier family practices. Returning to serve the people of their home state, he and his wife built a state-of-the-art facility in Sandy, Utah, to house his private practice. He has achieved Advanced Proficiency Certification in Torque Release Technique (TRT), which is proven, through research, to be one of the most advanced scientific chiropractic techniques in the world. He is also certified in Webster Technique for pregnant mothers, and he enjoys working with infants and children too.
In his spare time, Dr. Michael loves spending time with Tiffany and their three children. Together, they enjoy playing family board/card games, playing ball in the backyard, riding bikes, hiking in the beautiful mountains of Utah, camping, fishing (fly fishing is his favorite), watching movies and sports. Their family also loves its shared background in dancing, singing, and acting, and they take opportunities where they can to support the arts, as well as to perform on stage.
Tiffany Brown
Co-founder / Operations Manager
Before joining her husband in opening their chiropractic office, Tiffany has been blessed with experiences all over the world. She went to school in Paris in junior high, taught English in China, danced with Ballet West, became a pastry chef, taught dance for several years, and finished her bachelor’s degree in Psychology with honors while Dr. Michael was in chiropractic school. Her most honored accomplishments include being a mother to 3 amazing children.
Tiffany has had many health challenges since a young age. She was told she couldn’t and shouldn’t try to have children, to quit dancing, to prepare for eventual blindness and possible amputations due to having type 1 diabetes, along with other possible complications. Her passion for what she and Dr. Michael are doing stems from not only seeing how chiropractic has changed the lives of so many they’ve had the chance to serve over the years, but how it has literally saved and changed her own life. Tiffany has so much more hope for a life of healing and health, including a long future of being a mother and eventually a grandmother.
The body can do amazing things if it has proper communication from the brain through the nervous system to every cell, tissue, muscle, organ, and gland! Healing is powerful and possible for every human being! She can’t wait to share more of her personal story as you get to know her and Dr. Michael at Awaken Health Chiropractic!
