ABOUT Kristen Montoya, DC

I’ve lived in Oak Cliff for 20+ years and have twins, Rosemont Elementary alums. Happily married to a visionary, sweetheart of a man. You’ll find my hubs meditating, making a fabulous mess of the garage, and delivering coffee to Oak Cliff porches on the weekends for his passion project- Tendrel Coffee

We are wildly curious about what is possible. Hence, we have a house and appliances that all run on the sun and we plug our cars into that grid too. We tithe 10% to charity, so know that your investment in your own care goes further to help others than you may imagine!

If I’ve given you the impression that we have it all together over here, our grass grows tall and our house is begging for a coat of paint.

We live in the space of tinkering and of what’s possible for humanity, aiming to contribute as much as we can -and sometimes-the laundry gets neglected. It’s the most thrilling way I can dream up to spend our lives.

unleashing my mojo

I was 39 years old, had 2 year old twins and was exhausted, scattered and life looked like a giant handbag someone had turned upside down and spilled the contents all over the floor. A f**king mess. 

What could help? Cue…NetworkSpinal.

I landed on the table of a chiropractor who practiced in a way that I had never experienced- was this even chiropractic?! Definitely not what I had ever thought Nervous System care could be like.

My mind was blown.

My own undoing would become the greatest gift and the birth of Windhorse Energetics.

"Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind."

The Windhorse

Lungta in Tibetan

The name Windhorse comes from Tibetan tradition -

It is a sacred symbol representing vital life force, inner strength, and the ability to transform negative energy into positive.

It carries the wish-fulfilling jewel of enlightenment with the speed of the wind and the strength of a horse.

The windhorse is associated with the nervous energy, or prana, circulating within our subtle energetic body. When one's subtle energies are harmonized and flowing smoothly, described as one's "windhorse being strong", the mind experiences harmony and finds it easy to connect to its true nature.


The talisman for Windhorse was created as an incredible gift from a brilliant, kind, abeautiful woman - the creative genius that is Conal Cronin Love- in collaboration with her husband, artist Kyle Steed.

"The natural healing force within each of us is the greatest force in getting well."

— Hippocrates

  • This is a totally different chiropractic experience than you've ever had before.

    Kristen's approach heals your body on a nervous system level, addressing the root causes of the imbalance in your spine and hips session by session over time, not just making adjustments that go right back to where they were a few days later.

    Her office space is meticulously clean, well appointed, and inviting. The space and Kristen herself are absolutely glowing with healing energy.

    The diagnostics she uses demonstrate exactly how your body's expressing stress, and over the course of several visits, not only will you feel better, but those same diagnostics will prove how your stress levels are going down.

    I don't understand exactly what she does to adjust my body in a session, because she uses only the lightest touch. If you've had negative or painful experiences with chiropractors before, I PROMISE this is something completely different.

    After a session, I have less pain, less tension, and more freedom of movement. I feel more in balance and stronger on my feet.

    There's no pain, no pressure, and no aggressive manipulation whatsoever. but I'm very sensitive to energy moving in my body, and I can always feel something happening. VERY highly recommended.

  • I have had an unbelievable experience & will remain for as long as humanly possible.

    I have gone to Kristen three times so far. I have had an unbelievable experience & will remain for as long as humanly possible.

    Her compassion & understanding demonstrates her big heart. Kristen had been a huge part of my recovery & always makes me feel so loved.

    What she does & who she is, is pretty special!

  • My ability to handle stress is improving.

    Dr. Montoya conducted an analysis of my current nerve health using a heart rate variability analysis. She was able to use this analysis to target areas where her chiropractic care could have the most impact. At some point she will re-test to see my progress.

    I am so surprised that she doesn’t do any cracking or strong movements like traditional chiropractic care. She uses gently touching at key points.

    Overall, her sessions provide great relaxation and calmness for me. I enjoy the calm and caring atmosphere of receiving care at her office.

    My ability to handle stress is improving. She always greats me with a smile and truly wants to see my improvement through her care. Her care will help me to become my best self!

    Thank you, Dr. Montoya!
