Welcome to Foundational Health! My name is Dr. Kevin Schultz, and this is my story. I am happy to share it with you with the hope of inspiring you to seek a foundation for sustainable health and wellness in your life, just like I have in mine.

Childhood

I grew up on a dairy farm in Eleva, WI with my parents, 3 brothers, and sister. I was blessed to grow up in a health-conscious family. We grew much of our own food from my dad’s garden, hunted for or raised our own meat and eggs, and drank our own fresh milk right from the farm. My parents were always naturally minded and sought natural approaches to health and healing through supplements, food, and natural treatments like chiropractic care for the entire family on a weekly basis.

College Years

Despite being raised by 2 healthy parents who instilled healthy habits in me, when I left for college, I went off the deep end with my health choices. After 4 years of undergrad and 4 years of chiropractic college, I had put on 90 pounds of pure fat and ballooned up to 225 pounds due to excessive amounts of alcohol and highly processed food, combined with little to no exercise.

With less than a year left of chiropractic school, I got very sick and ended up bedridden for close to 4 months. During this time I lost close to 70 pounds, with horrific symptoms ranging from coughing up blood for days and endless bouts of diarrhea and horrible digestive pain. There was plenty of time for reflection and I realized I needed to make some drastic lifestyle changes. I was about to become a doctor that was supposed to educate my patients on the proper lifestyle habits that allowed their body to heal the way I believed God intended, but I clearly wasn’t being congruent with that belief in my personal life.

After regaining some strength, I was able to resume school, and I also joined my school’s gym, began drinking smoothies, taking supplements, and eating more whole foods. I noticed very quickly how much better I looked and felt, and from there I was hooked! Health literally became my hobby and I knew there was no going back to my old lifestyle.

Chiropractic Practice

I graduated from chiropractic school in 2000 and have been in active practice ever since. I consider myself extremely blessed to have thousands of individuals and families that have placed their trust in me—many of whom I have been adjusting and coaching on lifestyle habits for 20+ years. Hearing the stories and struggles from these wonderful people is a huge part of my inspiration for creating Foundation Health.

Developing Foundational Health

Going through my own personal health challenge is also a huge part of what drives me to help others. It also helps me relate to what my patients and clients are going through. I STRONGLY believe health does not have to be difficult and, believe it or not, it can be fun! If you have the knowledge and the proper tools, you can do what I and so many of my patients have done and make health your hobby! That is why I created Foundational Health. If you have the knowledge and tools and start incorporating those tools into your life on a regular basis, you WILL find success. Success, after all, is nothing more than simple habits performed daily over time and that is exactly what Foundational Health is all about. 

Family Life

In 2012 I married the love of my life. I can’t imagine God giving me a better wife and mother to our children.  Sarah and I along with our 3 amazing children, Caprise, Avva and Tieo live on the farm where I was raised in Eleva, WI. We grow our own fruits and vegetables, and we are excited to raise our own animals and live off the land more and more each year.  It is amazing to watch the kids running around barefoot outside, helping in the garden, playing in the creek that runs right behind our house and going on regular “adventures”.  We feel very blessed and we believe the best is yet to come!
