Chiropractor | Network Care Practitioner
Dr. Glory Eidt, DC
You could say Dr. Glory’s life has been heavily “steeped” in the Chiropractic Wellness Lifestyle. Since birth, her upbringing was highlighted by a deep understanding that “the power that made the body, heals the body”, while growing up with two influential Chiropractors in her family, her grandfather (Dr. Carl Eidt), and her own father (Dr. Robert Eidt), making her a third generation Chiropractor. Also, being the youngest of 5 siblings, who are all Chiropractors as well! It’s definitely in the blood!
After receiving her Chiropractic Doctorate from Parker University in Dallas, TX in December 2001, Dr. Glory joined Stoney Creek Chiropractic Clinic where she started to build a family wellness practice. In 2003, her sister, Dr. Jenna Eidt, returned from practicing in the UK, and they decided to open a practice together in downtown Burlington. It was during these 5 years that she expanded her knowledge base and technical skills to include Network Spinal Analysis (NSA), a revolutionary type of chiropractic care. The fusion of traditional Activator Method and NSA has awakened a whole new mind-body healing for both her patients and for Dr. Glory, who uses the treatment for herself, and for her family.
After becoming a mother, and her sister moving away to get married, Dr. Glory joined Core Link Wellness and that is where she met Dr. Shahnaz Chowdhury. They were very much in alignment with how they ran their practices, and so began a great working relationship. In 2013, Dr. Chowdhury opened up Nurture/HIWHC and asked Dr. Glory to join her team - 11 years later, they are still working alongside each other helping families attain optimal health & wellbeing.
In her spare time, family comes first. Dr. Glory & her husband, Jeff enjoy being their kids’ biggest fan in their Rep baseball and Rep volleyball programs. She volunteers her time as Team Manager for her daughter’s volleyball team, and can be seen spinning the walk-up music for her son’s baseball team! Other interests include taking walks in nature, and experimenting in the kitchen cooking or baking something delicious.
