A Note from Dr. Jana

Dr. Jana Flora, a Saint Louis native, began her journey into healthcare following a severe knee injury in high school. The arduous recovery process led her to study chiropractic, as she was drawn to its capacity to facilitate natural healing and even prevent injury and illness. She completed her undergraduate studies at Southeast Missouri State University, where she received a Summa Cum Laude Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry and a minor in Spanish. She then attended Logan College of Chiropractic for the doctorate program. There she obtained training in a variety of techniques renowned for their gentle, specific adjustments and abundant supportive research. She also focused considerably on the philosophy and science of wellness, on nutrition, and on functional movement rehabilitation, and wrote a research paper on psychoneuroimmunology. Furthermore, she invested in refining her Spanish communication skills and was even invited to be a part of the first team of chiropractors staffed by the Pan American Olympic Games held in Guadalajara, Mexico. She was awarded prestigious scholarships at both universities and was on the Dean’s List for the entire eight years of her college career.

Upon graduating Cum Laude in 2012, Dr. Jana moved to Cuenca, Ecuador, where she opened a successful chiropractic clinic, caring for newborn babies, geriatric patients, and everyone in between. While she cherished her time in South America and gained invaluable clinical expertise, her heart eventually brought her back to St. Louis. She is thrilled to apply her thorough education and diverse experiences to best help her patients towards their health goals.

In Dr. Jana’s first year of practice she developed a deep passion for caring for pregnant and pediatric patients, both from the enjoyment of treating them as well as from seeing the lifelong consequences of moms and children not receiving chiropractic care. As a result, she has relentlessly pursued opportunities to further her education in pregnancy and pediatrics, sifting through textbooks, attending seminars, and corresponding with mentors.

Dr. Jana has 3 beautiful children: Olivia, Myles and Abigail. In her free time she enjoys hiking, camping, rock climbing, sand volleyball, tennis, paddle boarding, yoga, reading, and cooking healthy food from scratch.

What People Are Saying

Dr. Jana is wonderful. Our one month old had torticollis and struggled to turn his head to the left. He was only nursing on one side and needed a helmet to correct a flat spot. After one visit, he was able to turn his head and with consistent care, we were able to avoid needing a helmet.

My family has seen both Dr. Jana and Dr. Jeanne and have loved both providers, as well as everyone on their staff. They were warm, kind, and knowledgeable, while treating the whole person in a thorough and thoughtful manner. They are highly trained, especially in pediatrics and pregnant and nursing women. Not only is the care worth every penny, but the office offers a wellness community that goes above and beyond. I highly recommend 1st Step Family Wellness for all your chiropractic and wellness needs.

I was fortunate to find this practice right before I got pregnant. I saw Dr. Jana all through my pregnancy and now after with our little. She addresses all my concerns at each appointment. Highly recommend them for your care.
