Meet Our Doctors
Dr. Ben Leverenz
Dr. Ben has been transforming lives through chiropractic care in the Port Huron area since 2001. A graduate of Life University, Dr. Ben discovered his passion for the Gonstead technique early in his chiropractic journey, captivated by its precision and ability to help patients achieve optimal health. His mission has always been to empower individuals and families to live drug-free, thriving lives through the natural power of chiropractic care.
Growing up in St. Clair, Michigan, Dr. Ben’s love for fitness and wellness was forged through his dedication to sports, including high school athletics, bodybuilding, and CrossFit competitions. This personal commitment to health and performance inspired his career path, shaping the values he brings to his practice today.
Beyond the adjusting table, Dr. Ben is an advocate for community wellness and an active member of the Michigan Association of Chiropractors and the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA), reflecting his dedication to supporting patients of all ages. Whether he’s helping patients recover, prevent injury, or improve their quality of life, Dr. Ben remains steadfast in his belief that chiropractic is the cornerstone of a healthy, vibrant life.
When he’s not in the office, you’ll find Dr. Ben spending time with his family, cheering on his daughters at gymnastics meets, working out, or inspiring others with his passion for health and fitness.
Dr. Brandi Leverenz
Dr. Brandi is a Doctor of Chiropractic trained at Life University in Marietta, GA. Driven by a calling to make a difference, she returned to Michigan to open a chiropractic family practice alongside her husband, where they raise their six daughters in a lifestyle grounded in holistic wellness, homeschooling, and home birthing.
As a devoted advocate for natural health, Dr. Brandi continually seeks ways to enhance her patients’ well-being. Seven years into her practice, she recognized the need for a deeper approach and added Nutritional Muscle Testing, becoming certified in Nutritional Response Testing. This pivotal shift led her practice to focus solely on nutritional testing, enabling her to better support her patients’ unique health journeys.
A decade later, Dr. Brandi’s pursuit of even greater patient outcomes introduced her to the Morphogenic Field Technique, an innovative method that expanded her capacity to deliver precise, transformative results. Through this evolving approach, she offers her patients new possibilities for healing, rooted in holistic and bioenergetic insights.
Outside the office, Dr. Brandi finds joy in homeschooling her daughters, cheering them on in gymnastics, lifting weights, staying active, and pursuing continuous learning to enhance longevity and vitality for both her family and her patients.
To know Dr. Brandi is to evolve with her, as she tirelessly strives to empower, uplift, and bring renewed hope to every individual she serves.
Dr. Benjamin Harris
Dr. Benjamin has been a vital part of Leverenz Family Chiropractic since 2010, bringing his passion for the Gonstead technique and his dedication to helping patients reach their highest level of health. A graduate of Life University, Dr. Harris felt drawn to chiropractic care for its ability to empower individuals to take control of their well-being naturally.
Born and raised in the Blue Water area, Dr. Harris graduated from Marysville High School, where his love for sports, especially soccer, began. Starting at the age of five, his commitment to soccer has carried into adulthood, as he still enjoys playing today. This lifelong pursuit of health, wellness, and teamwork has shaped his approach to chiropractic care, where he focuses on precision, connection, and long-term results for his patients.
Dr. Harris is a proud member of the Michigan Association of Chiropractors and values serving families in his community. His deep commitment to family life is reflected at home, where he and his wife, along with their twin daughters and son, enjoy life’s everyday adventures together.
When he’s not in the office, Dr. Harris enjoys spending quality time with his family, exploring the outdoors, and staying active through his lifelong love of soccer. Whether on the field or in the clinic, he brings the same energy and commitment to helping others live healthier, more active lives.
