Dr. Stephen P. Kramer's Experience

• Kramer Chiropractic Health Center began in Edina, MN in August of 1988. During the 12 years in Edina I gained life-building experiences at home as I watched my family grow from one to four children. With a growing family my desire to be closer to home became a high priority and in August of 2000, I sold the Edina Clinic and purchased Wilma E. Behm's Clinic of 30 years. The transition has been exceptional, and I feel blessed that I am working in Prior Lake.
• Since opening the doors in 1988, I’ve treated thousands of patients ranging from newborns to seniors; those involved in sports injuries, auto and work-related accidents, as well as repetitive and postural conditions. We are continually working towards helping each patient resume the active lifestyle they desire. I have also built a excellent network of professionals including neurologists and orthopedists to consult with when the need arises.
• Growing up with 7 siblings in a small town in rural southwestern Minnesota (Who’s been to Lucan, MN?) gave me many blessings. I think one of those was enjoying being able to communicate with people of all ages. I look forward in helping you solve your health conditions as well as improve, sustain and protect the quality of your health.

Dr. Kory L. Isley's Experience

• After completing my Doctorate, I was fortunate enough to meet Dr. Stephen Kramer and began working with him at his Edina practice. When Dr. Kramer decided to relocate to Prior Lake it was a blessing for many reasons. My wife was born and raised in Prior Lake, which allowed us to stay near Family. Secondly, it gave us the opportunity to become a part of a great community. Dr. Kramer and I have been practicing in Prior Lake since September of 2000. In the Spring of 2003, Kramer Chiropractic expanded and opened a clinic in Montgomery, MN. In that time I have been fortunate to met and helped many people ranging from day old infants, pregnant mothers, athletes, seniors and everyone in between. I have seen chiropractic benefit everyone, be it from sports injuries, auto accidents, or everyday aches and pains.

Dr. Michael J. Bothof’s Experience

• After graduating from Chiropractic school in the spring of 1998, I started a new clinic with a classmate (Dr. Matt Masloski) in Shorewood, MN, called Lifetime Chiropractic.I spent 7+ years as co-owner of that clinic seeing patients with a variety of injuries and illnesses.The years I spent at Lifetime Chiropractic taught me countless lessons of patient care and how to manage a wonderful variety of conditions.Not only have I helped grow a successful practice, but I have been fortunate to start a life with my beautiful wife, Amy.We have been blessed with two amazing children in the past 4 years, and watching them grow has given me yet another view on life.
• In January of 2006, I made a decision to change my career path and join Dr. Kramer.Coming back to Prior Lake is something I have looked forward to for a while, and this opportunity was one I couldn’t pass up. Dr. Kramer and I share a common vision of chiropractic care and we look forward to many years of success together.
• Since 1998, I’ve treated patients ranging in age from 1 day old newborns to great grandmas!Injuries come in many forms, from sports, automobile, work and between, and I have been lucky to have success with a multitude of conditions.I encourage each patient to take responsibility in their care – be a participator, not a spectator – and good health is right around the corner.
• I have tried to be active in the golfing community, and in the past couple years have created a “5-Minute Warm-Up Routine” that benefits athletes and non-athletes of all ages in either preparing for an event or getting started in the morning.Setting aside time to take care of your body each day pays huge dividends.
