ABOUT US
Dr. Ryland Weum, DC
Doctor of Chiropractic, Webster Technique Certified
I am a third-generation chiropractor from both sides of my family.
I was born in Minnesota, the youngest of three children, and raised in Arkansas.
My education began at North Dakota State and then finished at University of Arkansas, with a degree in Biology. I was accepted into the Chiropractic Program at Parker University in Dallas, Texas, where I completed my doctorate. During my time at Parker University, I also earned two additional degrees, a bachelor in Anatomy and a bachelor in Health & Wellness. The mission of Parker University is to educate physicians in patient-centered chiropractic. This is where I excel, as loving service is my first technique.
I have chosen to follow in my family’s footsteps and continue the legacy of chiropractic. Montana seemed like an obvious choice to begin my practice considering my love for the great outdoors. Some of my favorite things include hunting, fishing, and wakeboarding. You will seldom find me doing any of these things without my four-legged adventure buddy, Coulee.
I look forward to meeting each of you and hope to be a catalyst on your journey to health and wellness.
COURTNEY MONTGOMERY
Advanced Practice Registered Nurse, Certified Family Nurse Practitioner
I was born and raised on a farm in north central Montana. I attended Carroll College where I received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2008. I then received my master’s in nursing from University of St. Augustine where I am currently working on my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree. I have worked in many areas within the nursing field including acute care, critical access facility, labor and delivery, nursery, ENT, and family medicine.
I have decided to return to Helena because of the community and what this area has to offer myself and family. I enjoy being outdoors and doing activities with my family, including hiking, lake time, sports, and biking. I am very excited to plant our family roots here.
I have chosen the path of alternative medicine because it has always been a passion of mine to find the root cause of all health issues. Having worked in the medical field for 13+ years, I have seen the conventional approach for treating ailments and realized the necessity of prevention as well as a holistic treatment or management for these ailments. I look forward to working with each of you and being a part of your health and wellness journey.
WHITNEY BAKER
Office
Manager
I am a Helena native, born here and now raising my family here. I graduated from Capital High in 2006. The same year I met my future husband. We have 3 beautiful children who keep us very busy. We like to ski in the winter and camp in the summer, enjoying the Montana life! I often say I am solar powered, so anytime I can be outside in the sunshine, that’s where I’ll be! While in high school, I got my CNA license and worked at Rocky Mountain nursing home. Taking care of people has always been a true passion of mine.
Before having children, I realized there was an additional option for medicine from what I had previously known. Natural and holistic medicine has become something I deeply believe in. I have dedicated years to learning, researching, and understanding this alternative approach. I want what is best for my husband and children and I believe taking a natural and holistic approach where I can has made a difference in our health and wellness. My goal is to help others understand this additional option and the benefits it can provide.
I’ve been part of the team at Performance Health for almost 3 years now and look forward to helping you through your journey to health. I’ll be here to help with everything, from filling out paperwork to making the billing process as easy as possible. Welcome to the Performance Health Family! We can’t wait to meet you.
