Lindsey A.

Lindsey Applegate, Licensed Bodywork and Massage Therapist

Lindsey didn’t always plan on becoming a Licensed Bodywork and Massage Therapist. For several years, she had thought of going into physical therapy but then felt that this career fit her strengths and passions in a more fine-tuned way than PT did. After doing research, Lindsey found an excellent massage program in Charlotte, which is just over the state line from Clover, South Carolina, where she grew up. After completing the rigorous program, Lindsey took the MBLEx exam and applied for licensure.

The Path to Our Practice

Knowing she didn’t want to work in a spa, Lindsey attended a job fair that her massage school was hosting. The previous owners of the clinic were searching to hire new therapists and chiropractors. “I met the previous massage therapist there, and liked her style and philosophy of the practice, and started working with her.” Lindsey also met Dr. Ritchie. For Lindsey, the therapeutic work she gets to do has been exactly what she’s been looking for. She finds the emphasis on structural and functional change rewarding.

In Her Spare Time

When she’s not at work, Lindsey likes playing the piano, knitting, cooking, and taking long walks.

Savanna Thomas, Office Manager

Savanna Thomas, Office Manager

Savanna’s connection to Ritchie Chiropractic & Wellness began in a unique way—she was first a patient at the practice. “I’ve had chiropractic care randomly in the past, but I’ve never met anyone like Dr. Ritchie, especially his specialty in Atlas Orthogonal.” At the time, Dr. Ritchie was managing the practice solo, and Savanna had just completed her master’s program. Recognizing the opportunity, she offered her help during this transitional period. “Help me help you,” she recalls saying to Dr. Ritchie, who welcomed her support. What began as a temporary arrangement quickly evolved. After forming solid relationships with patients and contributing to the practice’s success, Savanna accepted a full-time position as Office Manager.

A Passion for Learning

Savanna graduated from Georgia State University and spent some time in Atlanta. She also earned her MBA in Finance from Southeastern Oklahoma State University. Beyond formal education, Savanna has gained valuable insights from working alongside Dr. Ritchie, especially about the human body and its remarkable ability to heal.

Outside the Practice Interests

In her spare time, Savanna loves traveling and new experiences. Her adventurous spirit once led her to leap from one of Jamaica’s tallest cliffs. A wine connoisseur at heart, she also enjoys exploring vineyards and going on wine tours. A native of Buffalo, New York (Go Bills!), Savanna currently lives in [Charlotte] with her young daughter. Connect with Savanna and the practice team to discover how personalized care can optimize your health and well-being!
