Dr. Sarah Lutz

Family Chiropractor

Health and harmony can naturally exist in our lives through a well-tuned nervous system. I intend to be a nurturing guide, assisting each individual on their journey to create their conscious, healthy lifestyle. I truly love seeing others awaken to the light of their own true nature.

Dr. Sarah Lutz

I experienced profound changes in my health and life after first receiving chiropractic care at the age of 15. I chose to pursue my career as a chiropractor to offer others the transformational service of the chiropractic adjustment.

I hold a Bachelors degree in pediatric and adolescent psychology and I completed my Doctorate of Chiropractic degree at Life University College of Chiropractic in Marietta, GA. During my preceptorship, I interned for nine months at the largest pediatric and prenatal chiropractic practice in the state of Georgia. In 2015, Dr. David and I served on a chiropractic humanitarian trip to Lima and Cusco Peru, during which we cared for hundreds of children. I am certified in the Webster Technique for pregnancy care and I am currently completing my diplomate in pediatric and prenatal chiropractic through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. I have trained extensively to provide state-of-the-art and evidence-based care for the smallest of newborns, children of all ages and abilities, to pregnant mamas through each stage of their journey, including postpartum healing and well-being. My expertise encompasses the spectrum of energetic healing to structural correction, always with a focus on enhancing the function of the body's nervous system, so that the body can heal from the inside out. I am committed to always continuing my education through advanced trainings to provide the highest quality of care to my patients.

I have always loved caring for babies and children and I have a calling to care for mothers. Becoming a new mom myself in 2018, I have gained even more passion for helping women through their preconception, pregnancy, birth and postpartum journeys.

During my free time, I love practicing yoga, Pilates, and functional movement exercises. I am an avid reader and I also love cooking and baking healthy organic recipes. My favorite thing to do is to explore the great outdoors of Bend and the Pacific Northwest with my husband Dr. David and daughter Evaleigh.

I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Dr. David Lutz

Family Chiropractor

Improving the life of a suffering child has a massive ripple effect. The trajectory of an entire life is changed forever. The family can regain excitement, exploration and pursuit of purpose. A community flourishes because that child is back to being the fullest expression of themselves. A child’s life changed has an immeasurable impact on the future of humanity and the world.

Dr. David Lutz

As a child, I experienced the yearly flu, bronchitis, and colds. At the age of 12, my life was transformed by chiropractic care. I received consistent adjustments and my immune system was strengthened immensely – awakening me to the power of the human body and the power of the chiropractic adjustment. I realized that giving the gift of health and full expression of life was my calling.

I graduated from Michigan State University, with a Bachelor of Science degree in human biology with a specialization in the promotion of healthcare. I completed my doctorate of chiropractic degree at the most prominent chiropractic school in the world, Life University in Marietta, GA. During my internship of over 500 hours, I worked alongside the leading pediatric chiropractor in the profession and I cared for hundreds of children suffering from ADHD, autism, sensory processing disorders, allergies, and ear infections. I am certified in the Webster Technique for pregnancy care and I am currently pursuing my diplomate in pediatric chiropractic from the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. In 2015, Dr. Sarah and I served on a chiropractic mission trip to Peru in which we cared for hundreds of children in need. We are committed to helping all children and adults reach their fullest expression and highest human potential.

The deepening of my purpose began during pregnancy with Dr. Sarah and the birth of our daughter Evaleigh. I had the privilege to witness firsthand every miraculous change that a woman’s body experiences to grow a baby and prepare for birth. I was given many pieces of advice by parents in our practice and our community, but one statement always brought me back to the true nature of becoming a parent: “You have never known true unconditional love until you meet your child for the first time.” I now understand that this depth of love has no limits, has no boundaries, and grows every single day through each phase of development. The love and care I have brought forward to Dr. Sarah during her pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience, and to Evaleigh from birth through every stage of her development thus far, is the same love and care I will bring to you and your family through your challenges and triumphs.

Outside of chiropractic, I enjoy exploring the great outdoors with Dr. Sarah and Evaleigh. Becoming a father has been the greatest blessing. I am very passionate about snowboarding and hiking, especially in Bend and Central Oregon. I love to be congruent in all aspects of my lifestyle by performing functional movement exercises, preparing and cooking fresh organic food, and spending time reading books on personal development and spiritual growth.

When Dr. Sarah and Dr. David invited me to be a part of the Pure Light family, I was thrilled by the opportunity to work with such compassionate and dedicated healthcare providers. We share a commitment to the health and well-being of our community, as well as our own wellness, which I believe is key to providing the best care to our patients.

Shelby Love

“I moved to Bend from northern New Hampshire in 2014, after earning my Bachelor's Degree in Health Science at Keene College in New Hampshire.

I came to Central Oregon eager to start my career in community health and to explore the beauty of the west coast.

Before joining the Pure Light team, I was a member of the clinical team at Central Oregon Pediatric Associates, and managed a family behavioral health clinic here in Bend.

In addition to working in a clinical setting, I am a part-time fitness instructor. I am currently teaching spin classes weekly.

My passion for health and fitness came early in life, inspired by my parents who have spent their careers running small businesses centered around fitness and recreation.

When Dr. Sarah and Dr. David invited me to be a part of the Pure Light family, I was thrilled by the opportunity to work with such compassionate and dedicated healthcare providers.

We share a commitment to the health and well-being of our community, as well as our own wellness, which I believe is key to providing the best care to our patients. Simply put, I feel extremely fortunate to be a part of Pure Light Family.”

Photographer & Creative Director

It was the winter of 2017, soon after my arrival to the realms of Bend, when Dr. Sarah and Dr. David (Evaleigh, in spirit, of course) welcomed me into the Pure Light Family as their designated photographer/videographer. Since then, our relationship has been a blossoming of continued creation, collaboration, sweet mountain views, and truly life changing chiropractic adjustments.

“It was the winter of 2017, soon after my arrival to the realms of Bend, when Dr. Sarah and Dr. David (Eveleigh, in spirit, of course) welcomed me into the Pure Light Family as their designated photographer/videographer. Since then, our relationship has been a blossoming of continued creation, collaboration, sweet mountain views, and truly life changing chiropractic adjustments.

When I began care with Pure Light, I was suffering from repercussions of whiplash that created a barometric pressure sensitivity. Clouds in the sky were not my friend and as an epicurean who wants to enjoy each day as it is, it was a subtle element of stress in my life that was adding up, unnecessarily. Through the hands of the Pure Light team, cloudy days quickly became celebratory again along with the general health and well-being to aid my nervous system throughout all the cycles. 

In 2020, as many experienced, new phases graced my life flow and I asked myself what and who I wanted to infuse my surroundings with. Naturally, the Lutzs were top of mind and upon cosmic, kismet response, I have become part of the front desk team, as Shelby's assistant -- supporting the community in discovering vibrancy through the body's innate ability to heal when all is aligned!”
