The Doctors of Prescott Chiropractic
Dr. Casey Webber, Dr. Carina Patnode, & Dr. Marisa Hamre
Dr. Carina Patnode, DC
For the past 18 years, Dr. Carina Patnode has helped thousands of people regain health through the power of chiropractic and educating about the body's innate ability to heal. She has a strong passion to communicate the benefits of proactive care and help families take active roles in their own health.
Dr. Carina grew up in Durand, WI. She is a graduate of Northwestern Health Sciences University in MN, where she obtained her Doctorate of Chiropractic. She is a Prescott resident and enjoys devoting her time and talents to the people of Prescott and surrounding communities near and far. In fact, it is not unusual for folks to travel long distances to have their "POWER turned ON!" at Prescott Chiropractic. Dr. Carina's approach brings along a gentle bedside manner and a special knack for working with babies and children while earning their trust and admiration.
Dr. Carina initially joined Prescott Chiropractic as an associate in November of 2008 after practicing in Minnesota for two years. She then went on to purchase the practice in August of 2014 and has since then continued on her mission to educate patients and the community on how Wellness chiropractic care and lifestyle factors like proper nutrition, quality supplements, active movement, and mindset all play a role and work together synergistically to improve our overall health and wellbeing. Dr. Carina continues on her quest for knowledge about the incredible human body by attending seminars and workshops focused on nutrition and chiropractic care for people of ALL ages.
When Dr. Carina isn't busy adjusting, learning, and educating, she is active in the community and giving of her time with local family and children's events. It is well known that supporting small business is very important to her. But most of all, in her downtime, she loves nothing more than spending those precious hours with her family. Those peaceful moments at home with her husband and three children, a family adventure exploring nature, a bit of retail therapy, and attending her children's sporting events are all things that fill her cup.

Dr. Marisa Hamre joined Prescott Chiropractic in August 2015. She brings enthusiasm and modern clinical approaches to the office. Dr. Marisa has a special interest in working with children and expecting mothers, and is currently pursuing a certification through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association.
Chiropractic completely changed Dr. Marisa's life as a high school athlete in River Falls, WI. After receiving chiropractic care for the first time, she was able to quickly return to playing soccer--injury free. Chiropractic not only helped with her sport injuries, it also helped with her childhood asthma.
Dr. Marisa graduated from Chiropractic College in March 2015, and continues to advance her knowledge and skills through regular continuing education. Dr. Marisa aspires to change the way the community views health and wellness. As a chiropractic physician and previous personal trainer, she can help people of all ages improve their lives and achieve better health!
Dr. Marisa resides in Woodbury, MN with her husband Travis and their newborn son. Together, she and her husband are exploring and experiencing the new world of parenting and the many joys that it brings. Aside from their new job as parents, they enjoy an active lifestyle involving a plethora of outdoor activities.

Dr. Casey Webber, DC
Dr. Casey Webber grew up just across the river in Hastings, MN. As a child, Dr. Casey loved cheering on the Minnesota sports teams with her family. She was always very active herself in dance and soccer. She danced competitively here in Prescott at Stella Dance Studio, and continues to work there now as a dance instructor and choreographer.
Dr. Casey has always had a passion for athletics and helping others, which eventually led her to the field of chiropractic. Throughout her schooling, she focused on sports chiropractic and is excited to get to provide care for both the young athletes of Prescott, as well as their families! We are so excited to have Dr. Casey join our team at PC, as she brings an exciting and fresh approach with remarkable skill. We'll venture a guess that her fine-tuned and precise adjustment techniques come so naturally to her with the many years of experience in dance, including her attention to detail and knowledge of the human body.
In her free time, Dr. Casey enjoys a cozy night in with a good book or movie, trying new foods (typically accompanied by a good glass of wine) and attempting to keep her house plants alive. Being born and raised a Minnesota girl, Dr. Casey will proudly continue to cheer on her Minnesota sports teams despite the potential controversy!

Leena Tuura
Leena celebrated a decade with Prescott Chiro in December of 2022. She’s our Jack—or should we say Artsy Jill—of all trades! Whether it’s troubleshooting technology, verifying insurance, bouncing a baby, taking calls, educating on nutritional supplements/essential oils, website maintenance, photography, instrument maintenance, keeping the gardens looking pretty, or designing new merch for the company, she welcomes taking on a wide variety of projects! We are so grateful to have her kind spirit here to welcome in our patients everyday. When asked what she loves most about working here, she says “I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to work with the most amazing women in a beautiful, positive, uplifting environment that nurtures goodness and health and wellness with likeminded folks! My most favorite perk of all is adorning my arms with the steady rotation of babies and children who come in to see us! I love that I get my baby fix nearly everyday!”
Leena started her chiro journey at the age of 10 when she started suffering from headaches and migraines. She admits she's seen a lot of different D.C.'s along the way and was glad they were able to help her find relief in treating the cause of her pain, but she insists there are none quite like the Docs at Prescott Chiro. They seem to have an energy all their own and keep her feeling and performing at her very best and that is why she is such a strong believer in regular chiro care and all that it encompasses.
Leena is mom to two sweet kiddos of her own, Aija and Aari. Outside of work she is a most loving mama, sister, auntie and friend who finds fulfillment in spending lots of time taking steam in the sauna and strolling the beaches of Lake Superior.

Ashley Filkins
Ashley is our amazing front desk Patient Coordinator multi-tasking master extraordinaire! She grew up in River Falls, WI and relocated to Prescott with her brand new husband, Hunter. Ashley and her hubby love snowmobiling, fishing, going for walks and casual nights out at their favorite local spots. Together, they have two canine fur babies, Nellie the Golden Retriever and Turbo the Black Lab, and one fine feline kitty named Johnny whom animal loving Ashley says resembles a cow more than a cat. We'd venture a guess her pets feel lucky to have Ashley as their fur mum! We'd also have to say that we couldn’t be luckier to have a such a spunky, outgoing, and generous gal like Ashley to greet patients everyday. Between taking calls, scheduling appointments, replying to text messages, and keeping on top of our busy patient schedule, Ashley always has something fun to share and has a knack for attracting little ones to her desk and making a new best friend. Ashley has been touted by folks who claim she is "The Nicest Human on Earth" and it is rare to see her without a smile upon her face. Have an encounter with her and you'll likely agree! She is a people person so greeting and meeting people is her specialty.
Ashley has been receiving chiropractic care for a long time. She feels it has been life changing for her health and general wellness. She loves sharing the benefits of regular chiropractic care and that is one of the many reasons she is so happy to be here at Prescott Chiro!
