Dr. Ally Quintos
Dr. Ally is one of those rare extraverted Seattleites. She loves to help others move better and feel better while holding a compassionate, motivating space. As with other providers at Flourish, Dr. Ally believes that any progress in health, no matter how small, is a step forward and should be celebrated. Some days that will be earning a PR at the gym. Other days that will be simply showing up for your appointment. Your best will change from day to day, and it is enough.
Dr. Ally uses chiropractic adjusting, muscle scraping (gua sha), pin and stretch, and therapeutic exercises, while also addressing behavioral modifications, nutrition, and lifestyle factors all for optimal wellness. She is primarily a diversified manual adjuster, and also implements Thompson Drops and instrument-assisted adjustments. Some of her patients prefer instrument-only and that is welcomed by her.
She takes a movement and biomechanics based approach to chiropractic to promote function and wellbeing. As an avid runner, Dr. Ally loves helping people with hip, knee and shoulder injuries. She is amazed at how many people who hike or run have neck and shoulders tension! Aside from sports injuries or helping people continue doing what they love, she also has experience in pediatrics and prenatal, and really enjoys working with children, from 1 month to 17 years old. She loves supporting those who are expecting throughout their pregnancy, whether it be back pain, hip pain or overall wellness.
Dr. Ally returned to Seattle in 2020 to practice and joined Flourish in 2022. When Dr. Ally is outside of the office, she enjoys running, spending time with her family, and playing with her pup, Franklin.

Dr. Kelly Perona
Dr. Kelly focuses on intentional healing and pain relief using hot stones, adjustments, focused massage, and stretches to encourage movement in the body, as well as preventive/self-care, posture and general wellbeing.
She is Webster-certified and has studied in the most painless, effective treatment methods available which involve traditional hands-on adjustments or instrument.
From Dr. Kelly: I love connecting with people and holding a supportive space for their needs. I started school to become a dentist with the intent to have a career in helping people. Three years into my schooling, I changed my profession to chiropractic after a car accident so I could focus on treating muscle and joint problems naturally. I love witnessing the exponential improvement chiropractic and massage can bring to whiplash or strains from MVAs, bike accidents, or other collisions. And doing so in a compassionate, validating space.
I have helped musicians, people who bind or brave MTF or FTM surgeries, runners, yoga enthusiasts, people in the restaurant industry, hairstylists, and those with the ever-elusive desk jobs. My mission is to help people live life to their fullest potential. Sometimes that is being able to work throughout the day without pain. Sometimes that is getting out of bed and brushing your teeth. There is no judgement and I am humbled and appreciative to have someone trust me to help them in their goals.
I am familiar with a large variety of body movements and mechanics and have plenty of experience with my own injuries. I also understand that healing from an injury can be difficult because you don’t want to take time off from activity. I don’t want people to settle for merely being out of pain for typical daily activities. Healing properly, to me, means being able to get back into your personal level of activity without discomfort. I’d love to help.

Understanding the Causes of Leg Pain
Knee pain is caused by a wide array of activities, circumstances, and conditions. The causes fall into one of two categories.
The fWe use our legs every day. From walking and running to hiking and biking, our legs get us where we want to go. But all that daily use can cause wear and tear that, over time, causes pain, discomfort, and a loss of flexibility or range of motion.
There are many causes of leg pain. Some are functional, like a pulled muscle, while others are related to aging, like arthritis. Some common causes of leg pain are:
- Achilles tendinitis
- Arthritis
- Bursitis
- Car accidents
- Gout
- Hamstring injury
- Herniated discs
- Osteoarthritis
- Patellar tendinitis (knee pain)
- Repetitive motions
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Sciatica
- Spinal stenosis
- Sports injuries
- Sprains
- Strains
- Stress fractures
- Varicose veins
To be clear, a chiropractor may not be able to treat some of these causes. For example, a chiropractor can’t treat your gout, as it’s caused by your diet and may require medication to control. And if you suspect the cause of your leg pain is deep vein thrombosis, you should seek immediate medical care.
What a chiropractor can do is improve how your legs function and feel. A chiropractor can release the stress and tension in your muscles to improve joint mobility and flexibility while increasing your blood flow to inflamed areas to increase healing.
Symptoms of Leg Pain
The symptoms of your leg pain will likely vary based on the underlying cause. However, most people experience leg pain that feels like:
- Aching or heaviness that’s described as deep or dull
- Sharp or shooting nerve pains that travel down the leg
- Cramps, which may get better or worse with rest and movement
- Burning and tingling, like a pins-and-needles sensation
Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Leg Pain
Seeing a chiropractor for leg pain can help you live a fuller, healthier life. Over time, the benefits of chiropractic care for your leg pain can include:
- Drug-free pain relief. While over-the-counter remedies provide temporary relief, long-term use may not get you the results you’re looking for. Chiropractic adjustments provide relief from pain without drugs.
- Noninvasive. Depending on the cause of your leg pain, surgery or other invasive procedures may offer the hope of reducing your pain. Chiropractic is a noninvasive alternative that may also reduce your pain.
- Restore range of motion. Because your legs are important to your daily life, the pain associated with moving them may discourage you from getting out and about like you’d like. Chiropractic care can restore this range of motion, giving you the ability to move about without pain.
