Dr. Karolina Pray, ND, DC
Dr. Karolina Pray holds dual doctorates in Naturopathic Medicine and Chiropractic, along with certification in acupuncture, bringing a wealth of training and experience to her role as a licensed Naturopathic Doctor at Vibrant Health. Today, her practice is fully dedicated to the art and science of Naturopathic and Functional Medicine, where she finds the greatest opportunity to help patients heal and thrive.
Dr. Pray earned her Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine and her Doctorate of Chiropractic Medicine from the National University of Health Sciences in Lombard, Illinois. Her calling to medicine began after her own recovery from a severe illness more than 15 years ago, when holistic doctors and practitioners helped her regain her health.
