History:
Dr. Christine Swihart received her Doctor of Chiropractic from Life
College West in 1991. She worked as
a chiropractor for several offices, including that of Nick Athens, the
chiropractor for the San Francisco 49ers.
When she felt she had enough experience, she purchased
her own practice, Pacifica Chiropractors in Pacifica, California, in 1994.
She spent several years building the business, and even created a health-related TV show on a
local channel.
Eventually, Christine became frustrated that she saw people only after they had already
developed a problem from poorly-designed workstations, and could only do corrective work.
She spent some time looking at possible ways to affect change prior to injuries reaching such
severity.
She eventually decided upon ergonomics consulting, sold Pacifica Chiropractors
and received ergonomics training. She then worked with the Steele
Foundation, a Concord, California firm specializing in risk assessment,
to develop an ergonomic consulting business. Steele provides many
other services, such as executive protection, risk assessment, information
security and business investigations. She built the business up, working
at several large clients and beginning to build a network of ergonomists
in various cities nationwide.
Eventually, both parties decided that ergonomics didn't fit the core capabilities of the
Steele Foundation, so Christine agreed to buy ErgoDynamix in 2004.
Since ErgoDynamix became a separate entity, the network of ergonomists has grown, as has
the breadth of customer base.
