Community Involvement

When Dr. Nathan Clem took over ownership and management of Discovery Wellness Center, it was with the desire and commitment to help Magnolia and the Greater Seattle communities grow to be healthier.

With a shared vision of educating and motivating the public to lead well-balanced lives, the DWC team spends time in the community as often as time allows.  Sharing their passion for healthy living is what brings this enthusiastic Wellness team together, and is why they show up every day with a smile on their faces.

We are proud to donate our time and funds to local charities and organizations such as Northwest Harvest, Sustainable Magnolia, Catherine Blaine School, Magnolia Cooperative Preschool, The Moyer Foundation, Make a Wish, and the YWCA .


Chiropractic Mission to Siem Reap Cambodia December 2009

Dr. Clem is committed to giving back to those in need both near and far.  He traveled as a mentoring Chiropractor with 24 student interns over the Christmas season to the Siem Reap Province of Cambodia.  The team offered free Chiropractic care with the help of the organization Working for Children (WFC), a nonprofit charity that assists orphans and poor children.  

With little to no healthcare or chiropractic in Cambodia, these services were extremely beneficial to the children and families in these rural communities.  

Thank you to the Discovery Wellness patients who generously donated funds for to the children as well.


*WFC receives no government assistance and relies solely on contributions and donations.  If you are interested in learning more about the organization, please visit www.wfc-kh.org/contact-us/.
